complicity in mass murder and obstruction of Justice

If our authorities and mainstream media ignored this simple self evident evidence for almost a decade, how can we possibly trust them on anything else?
If this simple IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE common to even student's of secondary school is not enough to AT LEAST STOP THE WAR ON TERROR, as long as it is ignored, more quantity and/or complex evidence is simply going to be ignored proportionally more with more complex lies and justifications.
he site might have a little kookish spin :]

One of the ritual assertions of the AE911 cult is that the externally visible characteristics of the descent of the WTC7 tower could only have been caused by "simultaneous" destruction of "all columns" (e.g., by simultaneous "explosives" detonation).
A critical examination of the available video evidence clearly shows that this assertion is not true.
1) One end of the CORE dropped first (as evidenced by the drop of the penthouse, as noted in the NIST report), with progressive collapse to the other end of the core. Competent Engineers understand that the failure of columns supporting one end of a large block will shift more than their share of load to the next adjacent set of columns which will next buckle, which failure will shift more than their share of load to the next adjacent set of columns, etcetera. (Architects like Richard Gage do not comprehend this "domino" failure progression because it was not a part of their education)
2) The floor trusses are suspended between the core and the perimeter walls, and therefore the perimeter walls and floor spans provided zero vertical support to moderate the vertical collapse of the core, except to prevent it from rotating (preventing a horizontal component).
3) After the core had dropped, the midpoint of the long perimeter walls of WTC7 tower began to descend at a very slow rate indicative of buckling. (as described by NIST). Witnesses stated that the bottom floor ("caved out") before the perimeter wall above dropped. Physical evidence of this "caved out" buckling occurrence includes photographs showing that lower perimeter walls tipped towards and struck buildings across the street from WTC7. AE911 ignores the slow initial descent of the midpoint of the (long) perimeter wall, and falsely claims that even this portion of the building just suddenly went from standing still to "freefall" acceleration.
4) The claim by Richard Gage that "all" supporting columns were destroyed "simultaneously" is easily disproved by the fact that the ends (shorter sides) of WTC 7 clearly did NOT start to descend at the same time or rate as the mid-section of the (long) perimeter walls of WTC7. This difference in time resulted in the visibly concave shape of the roofline with the center portion being lower than the end portion.
5) It can be determined, by careful frame-by-frame examination of the motion of the entire roof-line that buckling at the lower wall of the WTC7 tower was PROGRESSIVE spreading from the midpoint outwards towards the (short) ends of the perimeter wall, and that the video proves that there was NOT "simultaneous" destruction of "all" of the columns.
6) Further, the alleged "symmetry" of the collapse (claimed by Richard Gage to be evidence of "controlled demolition"), and the alleged absence of rotation (tipping over) of the WTC7 tower, was due to the fact that the perimeter wall began to buckle at midpoint of the long span, which was a symmetry that prevented gross rotation from end-to-end. The sinking of the mid point of the (long) side roof line is actually a case of uneven force that could result in each end rotating towards the middle, but being arrested from complete rotation due to the wall structure and floor slabs connecting between the ends. Further, eye witnesses put a "transit" to work BEFORE the building grossly collapsed and determined that the building was leaning, prior to its collapse. [That is why firefighting efforts were abandoned and it was expected that WTC7 was going to collapse] This early-visible structural deformation indicates a rotation-involved failure, and implies that gravitational forces are being redistributed to certain core columns on one side and contrary to the building's design.
Essentially, the entire Catechism of the AE911 Cult is based on selective disregard of known facts and misrepresentations of known fact.
