Victims families and scientists call for new, genuine investigation of 9/11

Peace Arch News, http://www.bclocalnews.com, 9/8/2010

My name is Kip Warner and I am a 27-year old White Rock [British Columbia, Canada] based, software engineer, and entrepreneur. I write in regards to a matter of dire import, in honour of those who died on September 11th, 2001, and in support of their families who are still seeking the truth about that day; including Bob McIlvaine, who lost his 26-year old son, Bobby.

On March 1, 2010, Mr. McIlvaine delivered a petition to each of the 50 members of the New York City Council on behalf of 1,000 architects and engineers. The petition called upon the City Council to open an investigation into the collapse of World Trade Center Building 7, a 47-story skyscraper that was not hit by a plane, which nevertheless fell into its own footprint at 5:20 in the afternoon of September 11th. The federal government said that fire brought down Building 7, however, [more than] 1,277 architects and engineers provide us with overwhelming evidence that Building 7 was brought down with explosives, and that the government deliberately lied to us.

Scientists from the University of Copenhagen, UC Berkeley, and others noted in their groundbreaking paper, “Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe”, the presence of “red/gray chips” in all samples of the dust collected in the aftermath of the collapse, collected from multiple locations, by different individuals, both before and after first responders arrived on scene. They end their 25 page, peer-reviewed, chemical analysis published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal, 2009, with the following: “Based on these observations, we conclude that the red layer of the red/gray chips...is active, unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material,” (p.23).

The government of the United State's report on Building 7 included collapse models that in no way resemble the actual collapse. Even today, the government refuses to provide the public with detailed information on these models, saying releasing the information “may jeopardize public safety.” The government’s models show deformations, walls folding inwards and an asymmetrical collapse, instead of the smooth, symmetrical free fall drop that Building 7 actually underwent. Google “Building 7” to see footage.

Our organization's lawyers forced NIST to release the model, but NIST withheld 75% of the files under a technicality a new law which says they can withhold anything to do with 9/11 if they deem it necessary.

My father, a professional mechanical engineer of 33 years experience and a successful business owner who provided the fabric structures at ground zero, confirmed this after a doctoral engineer working for his company examined the official NIST data that was released. He believes that the model, analysis, and conclusions of the 911 Commission Report and the technical data upon which it is based are deeply flawed. It appears as though NIST attempted to adjust the model and beam connection details in order to get the model to collapse the way WTC7 actually collapsed.

This was the first time in history that any concrete and steel sky scraper structure had collapsed due to fire, let alone three of them - all on the same day.

A report on a 2001 conference suggests who was working on nano-thermite at this time - not to be confused with regular thermite. “All of the military services and some DOE and academic laboratories have active R&D programs aimed at exploiting the unique properties of nano-materials that have potential to be used in energetic formulations for advanced explosives...nanoenergetics hold promise as useful ingredients for the thermobaric (TBX) and TBX-like weapons, particularly due to their high degree of tailorability with regards to energy release and impulse management,” (Miziolek AW. Nanoenergetics: an emerging technology area of national importance. Amptiac Q 2002; 6(1): 43-48).

Noam Chomsky once noted a powerful means of presenting the people with the illusion of freedom is to set very narrow parameters for acceptable opinion, then allow for lively debate within that spectrum. Given this powerful new damning evidence, we now know that this was neither “blowback” (“far left”), nor an expression of an irate theology thought to be defective by design (“far right”). Everything from issues surrounding airport security, extremism, Guantanamo Bay, all the way to the justification of the deployment of Canadian troops in Afghanistan on the grounds that 24 Canadians were killed on 9/11; and our very own National Research Council who set our building codes, must now be re-evaluated rationally as this elaborate house of cards comes down - given the scope of these evidentially based ramifications. We must now be prepared to seriously question the official conspiracy theory's premise that men in caves conspired to take down NORAD, attack the most well defended fortification in the world, and pulverize thousands of tonnes of the World Trade Center complex's concrete and steel to talcum powder. We've been living a lie.

As we mark the 9th anniversary of 9/11, it is time to get the truth about what happened, starting with Building 7. To quote Bob McIlvaine: “Please join our coordinated effort to bring justice to my son and the thousands that were murdered on September 11th.” Go to BuildingWhat.org to learn more.

In closing, all that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.
