7. The contradictory claims were made by the defenders of the official conspiracy theory.

What video were you watching?
The contradictory claims made were all proven to be impossible.
In other words, the obfuscations only served to undermine the inconsistencies.

On the other hand the following scientific facts from 2000 scientists, architects and engineers have never varied. The facts never change.
_______________________________________________________________
WTC Building #7, a 47-story high-rise not hit by an airplane, exhibited all the characteristics of classic controlled demolition with explosives:

1. Rapid onset of collapse
2. Sounds of explosions at ground floor – a second before the building's destruction
3. Symmetrical "structural failure" – through the path of greatest resistance – at free-fall acceleration
4. Imploded, collapsing completely, and landed in its own footprint
5. Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
6. Expert corroboration from the top European controlled demolition professional
7. Foreknowledge of "collapse" by media, NYPD, FDNY

In the the aftermath of WTC7's destruction, strong evidence of demolition using incendiary devices was discovered:

8. FEMA finds rapid oxidation and intergranular melting on structural steel samples
9. Several tons of molten metal reported by numerous highly qualified witnesses
10. Chemical signature of the incendiary thermite found in solidified molten metal, and dust samples

WTC7 exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire:

1. Slow onset with large visible deformations
2. Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance (laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling, to the side most damaged by the fires)
3. Evidence of fire temperatures capable of softening steel
4. High-rise buildings with much larger, hotter, and longer lasting fires have never collapsed.

As seen in this revealing photo, the Twin Towers' destruction exhibited all of the characteristics of destruction by explosives:



Destruction proceeds through the path of greatest resistance at nearly free-fall acceleration
Improbable symmetry of debris distribution
Extremely rapid onset of destruction
Over 100 first responders reported explosions and flashes
Multi-ton steel sections ejected laterally
Mid-air pulverization of 90,000 tons of concrete & metal decking
Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
1200-foot-diameter debris field: no "pancaked" floors found
Isolated explosive ejections 20–40 stories below demolition front
Total building destruction: dismemberment of steel frame
Several tons of molten metal found under all 3 high-rises
Evidence of thermite incendiaries found by FEMA in steel samples
Evidence of explosives found in dust samples
And exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire:

Slow onset with large visible deformations
Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance (laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling, intact, from the point of plane impact, to the side most damaged by the fires)
Evidence of fire temperatures capable of softening steel
High-rise buildings with much larger, hotter, and longer-lasting fires have never collapsed.

I certainly hope you have contributed to this very important cause! zappaman Dec 2011 #1
I have contributed...by posting the video. Richard Charnin Dec 2011 #2
uh zappaman Dec 2011 #3
But you have still not specifically addressed the "bits and pieces..nt Richard Charnin Dec 2011 #4
There was a lot of BS there cpwm17 Dec 2011 #6
The contradictory claims were made by the defenders of the official conspiracy theory. Richard Charnin Dec 2011 #7
Acutally Bolo Boffin has done a nice job in the past... AZCat Dec 2011 #8
The contradictory claims are truther strawmen cpwm17 Dec 2011 #9
No need for me to respond. Richard Charnin Dec 2011 #11
I'm not sure why you think architects and engineers... AZCat Dec 2011 #14
NIST's Twin Towers report is only half a report. Ace Acme Oct 2013 #21
"No need for me to respond." Bolo Boffin Dec 2011 #15
You complained when zappaman didn't respond to the alledged evidence in your truther video cpwm17 Dec 2011 #16
Richard Gage is lying to you William Seger Dec 2011 #10
Are 1643 architects and engineers and thousands of others lying also? nt Richard Charnin Dec 2011 #12
You guys just had a White House petition that only hit 111! Bolo Boffin Dec 2011 #13
Apparently, Gage can be fairly convincing... William Seger Dec 2011 #17

Thanks. That's a good debunking of goofball NIST "evidence" (nt) T S Justly Dec 2011 #5
