The 9/11 WTC Fires: Where's the Inferno?
Not everyone is convinced by the official story of the towers collapse...
The laboratory director from a South Bend firm has been fired for attempting to cast doubt on the federal investigation into what caused the World Trade Center's twin towers to collapse on Sept. 11, 2001. Kevin R. Ryan was terminated Tuesday from his job at Environmental Health Laboratories Inc., a subsidiary of Underwriters Laboratories Inc., the consumer-product safety testing giant.
Ryan wrote that the institute's preliminary reports suggest the WTC's supports were probably exposed to fires no hotter than 500 degrees -- only half the 1,100-degree temperature needed to forge steel, Ryan said. That's also much cooler, he wrote, than the 3,000 degrees needed to melt bare steel with no fire-proofing.

The Collapse of WTC 1: Madrid Exposes a Fundamental Flaw
The Windsor Building was of a similar truss design to the twin towers, the fire started 11 storeys from the top of the building, and it burned at temperatures of 800ºC for more than 18 hours [AFP]. The core of the building did not fail.
The fire in WTC 1 is reported to have burned at 800ºC and was located roughly 17 storeys from the top of the building meaning the inner core supported only 6 additional floors of weight above the fire zone in comparison to the Windsor Building. WTC 1 collapsed after only 85 minutes, reportedly through core failure.
Don't you find this odd? Let's take a look at the cores of the buildings.

The Madrid Skyscraper Fire
Sunday 13 February 2005

There were no reported injuries except for three firefighters who suffered smoke inhalation and exhaustion. At its peak, temperatures reached 800 degrees Celsius (1,472 F), said Javier Sanz, head of Madrid firefighters, on Sunday.

Jack Cashill pushes the official story of 9-11
Silverstein later clarified that the "it" that was to be pulled was the crew of firefighters still in the obviously damaged building. Remember, nearly 3,000 people had already died that day at the World Trade Center, more than 300 of them firefighters. Yes, there have been few comparable collapses of steel frame buildings, but never before has a building of this nature been allowed to burn.
http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=P380
No steel framed building had ever collapsed through fire prior to, or since 9/11. A good example...
http://whatreallyhappened.com/spain_fire_2005.html
Also, diesel fires cannot evaporate steel.
http://prisonplanet.com/engineers_are_baffled_over_the_collapse_of_7_wtc.html
A combination of an uncontrolled fire and the structural damage might have been able to bring the building down, some engineers said. But that would not explain steel members in the debris pile that appear to have been partly evaporated in extraordinarily high temperatures, Dr. Barnett said.
http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?noframes;read=932
Can you explain this "conspiracy theory" Mr Cashill? Or did you just sell out, like you did with TWA 800?

The United States has become a world leader in avoiding human rights accountability
The United States has become a world leader in avoiding human rights accountability; a case in point is the reliance of the United States government on private military contractors, which has helped create virtually rules-free zones sanctioned with the American flag and firepower, said Larry Cox the executive director of Amnesty Internationals US Chapter.
He further said, Business outsourcing may increase efficiency, but war outsourcing may be facilitating impunity. Contractors illegal behavior and the reluctance of the U.S. government to bring them to justice are further tarnishing the United States reputation abroad, hurting the image of American troops and contributing to anti-American sentiments.
When it comes to human rights, this nation has become a world-class hypocrite.

The nature of the beast
America has lost its way. We are a confused nation, beset on all sides by fear and paranoia. After the orchestrated 9-11 attack on New York City and Washington, D.C., and its follow-up anthrax attack on Democratic legislators, Americans of all stripes rushed en masse to George Bush's Fools' Gate to trade their morality and compassion for empty promises of security. The consequences of that Faustian trade are unbelievable. In order to be safe we signed a pact with Decider Bush to condone any atrocity he could dream up so long as it happened in other lands to other men, other women, other children. He agreed, and further decided that no law conjured up by mere man applied to him, especially the U.S. Constitution, and demanded we sacrifice our freedoms as collateral for this evil pact.

Bush and Blair admit to mistakes in Iraq
President George W. Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair on Thursday night pointedly refused to set a timetable for withdrawal of troops from Iraq, but acknowledged that they had both made mistakes in the country over the last three years since the invasion.
And if these two wanted to really talk about mistakes, the most colossal was the launching of this war on a pack of lies. For that, the citizens of both nations must hold their leaders accountable.

Bombing Without Regrets
Since the U.S. knowingly bombed houses in a village and killed at least 16 and wounded another 15 Afghan civilians in this latest attack, and since the military says it has only confirmed killing 20 Taliban fighters, it's understandable that the Pentagon would be trying to claim another 60 Taliban deaths. A ratio of 16 civilians for 20 enemy fighters is hardly "proportionality." It is more properly called a civilian massacre.

Confident U.S. generals commit war crimes: Uranium as a force multiplier
It always pays to listen, and to listen exactly, to what the senior U.S. military officials say about fighting wars. In 1991, Gen. Colin Powell sent 500,000 men with Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, lots of 70-ton Abrams Tanks and other soldier equipment for a 100-hour war against a weak third world country Iraq. It was called the Powell Doctrine and required a quick enemy defeat by overwhelming force, defined goals and an exit strategy.

The threat of Depleted Uranium exposure: real, deadly ... and covered up by the Pentagon and United States Veterans Administration
The Pentagon must surely believe the old, but very foolish, saying that what you don't know won't hurt you. To prove it they nearly always go to great lengths to conceal what they do know so we won't find out. That's especially true when what they know is bad news or hazardous to our health or that of our troops.
That's certainly the case regarding the real and deadly threat from exposure to the toxic effects of depleted uranium (DU) poisoning.

Crushed by Gate of Occupation
The newly released Amnesty International 2006 Report provides a glimpse of the world's human rights record. The reality is shocking. The report starts with a rather blunt finding:
"During 2005 some of the world's most powerful governments were successfully challenged, their hypocrisy exposed by the media, their arguments rejected by courts of law, their repressive tactics resisted by human rights activists."
"Nevertheless, the lives of millions of people worldwide were devastated by the denial of fundamental rights."

Eventually, with aid cut off and no hope of negotiations, Hamas will revert to terror and the third intifada will begin.

Peter Keisler, an assistant attorney general, and other U.S. officials made the claim in the latest filing to a lawsuit alleging that telecommunications firm AT&T illegally allowed the government to monitor phone conversations and e-mail communications.
