[QUOTE=imasillypiggys;24815737]Well then why would they fly the planes[/QUOTE] Probably because they couldn't get enough explosives in to destroy the building. think of how much was used in the Oklahoma blast, they could never get that inside the building, I doubt it would even be enough. Again just a thought.

While we're discussing 9/11 conspiracies have truthers come up with any benefits yet? from what I see, we've lost billions of dollars, gotten in a ten-year war, lost thousands of troops, and lost one of our biggest commerce centers, aaand no pro's besides a slightly democratic shithole where a dictatorial shithole just was

We just had a 23 page thread about this on the In The News subforum, can a mod just move that to general and force everyone on Facepunch to read it?

Conspiracy threads, and facepunch. Haha, yeah right.

The conspiracy theorist could possibly argue that the government was hoping for a "WWII" type Economic boost, but it's all so unrealistic. People just seem to like to jump on the idea that "big brother" suddenly has a boner for mass-destruction. All that has come from 9/11 has been two wars that are hemorrhaging money from the "US Bank Account" and an increase in terrorist recruitment world wide. I just don't understand why people think the Government would do it, and why they would pick something as complex as crashing planes into buildings. Like they couldn't have hired some super secret team to pretend to be building inspectors who planted charges. Also, why blow up WTC7at all?

[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;24810551][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kSq663m0G8[/media] [editline]06:56PM[/editline] Oh Jesus, this again? That building did partially collapse. The top 11 floors were steel framed, those were the ones to collapse. The concrete inner core saved the rest of the building from completely collapsing and part of the 11 floors it supported. [img_thumb]http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/staff/agentsmith/madrid.jpg[/img_thumb] The World Trade Center was steel framed, not mention it lacked a concrete inner core. That's completely ignoring a fact that a jet flew into it going 560 miles an hour, full of jet fuel, destroying much of the support columns, blowing off the fire proofing, burning tons of paper and other office supplies and had to support the tons of building above the impact site. The "This is the first time a steel framed building has ever collapsed due to fire!" argument holds no water, there have been quite a few steel framed buildings that have collapsed due to fire, ranging from schools to highways. Certainly 9/11 was the first time in history a 'skyscraper' collapsed from fire, but it was also the first and only time an unprotected steel-framed building burned unchecked for a prolonged period of time. By the same logic we can say that 100% of unprotected steel-framed buildings have collapsed due to fire. I should also note that the new World Trade Center is being designed with a concrete core for this reason.[/QUOTE] I like how the conspiracy theorists in this thread just ignore posts like these and even though this is a very valid argument, they'll probably still think it's an inside job.

[QUOTE=JoeyZ;24808503]Peer pressure.[/QUOTE] I feel terrible for laughing at this.
I am sick of these 9/11 conspiracies. It's all bullshit, and no truth will ever come out. So just fuck it, and move on.
Just wondering about The Pentagon. Have they ever released those other angles of video that the FBI or what not confiscated, or was that just something they just made up in the video I watched 5 years ago.

Are you guys all architects or something
[QUOTE=Restrooms;24836908]Are you guys all architects or something[/QUOTE] We have common sense, which is plenty to debunk most theories.
Building 7 secretly contained America's hot pants reserve. Its containment was compromised by debris and unleashed a wave of grooviness unforeseen by the building's architects.
it were them darn freemasons i tell ya
[QUOTE=OvB;24836962]We have common sense, which is plenty to debunk most theories.[/QUOTE] Not if the theory involves things like this. I'm pretty sure figuring the cause of a building collapse takes much more than just common sense, unless you're a demolitions expert. I'm not saying the building was fitted for demolition, an incredible amount of preparation goes into those things
[B][I]You, sir, are doing it wrong.[/I][/B]
There was virtually no reason for the Government to blow up any of the WTC buildings. The most common reason Conspiracy theorists give is that the Government did it to start a war to gain oil. However, Afghanistan has no oil. If you bring that up, Conspiracy theorists tend to say we wanted to use Afghanistan as a foothold to invade Iraq. However, we already had Kuwait as a foothold. On top of that, we already had tons of reasons to invade Afghanistan. The first WTC Bombing, the Kenyan Embassy bombing and the U.S.S. Cole bombing were all more then adequate reasons to declare war on the Taliban and invade Afghanistan. Blowing up the WTC as an excuse to start a war would be incredibly redundant. Not to mention, Conspiracy theorists put incredible faith in the Government. The Government can't even properly enforce Financial laws, how could they keep a massive operation that would take thousands of people to do under wraps?
[QUOTE=OvB;24836822] This explains [I]a lot. [/I][/QUOTE] Goddamn. For inexperienced pilots, they sure got that thing down and low like a champ. Also, i guess video games have made me expect more damage from things. I expected those light posts to be wrecked.
[QUOTE=ShukaidoX;24810012]source for each claim instead of just some random 9/11 junk site?[/QUOTE] Hey it's you Debunking 9/11 has all the crap your sites do, + more that shows your sites are crap.

You are like the guy with the soldier avatar, i don't even know his name, you just ignore the shit out of everything. ATLEAST be like the guy at school who will change his opinions slightly when we prove stuff I gopt him from thinking the planes were missiles and Bush planned it all to him knowing it was all planes and the CIA did it. He came to his own conclusion about the CIA, but atleast I got him away from LOLOLOL BUSH DID IT
three little pigs?
Oh, it's this paranoid delusional bullshit again.
