Scholars and Family Members Submit Request for Correction to 9/11 NIST Report

Gourley also notes that the online journal, 'The Journal of 9/11 Studies,' has published refutations of many of the unscientific claims such as these.

"Scientists have responded to these outlandish claims in writing. Their refutations have undergone peer review and have been approved prior to publication.." The Fetzer/Wood/Reynolds claims are unable to withstand any serious scientific scrutiny.



His own group's submission, Gourley points out, is the first one which seriously addresses specific and significant aspects of the Report, rather than only minor details or making nonsense appeals.

Physicist Steven Jones says, "Our submission asks some very crucial questions which are necessary for any scientific Report, regardless of what our own positions are on what happened."

Architect Richard Gage, AIA agrees. "Here's one of the grossest examples," he says, "While the NIST-sponsored UL floor assembly fire tests demonstrated only 2 to 4 inches of sag with no failure at 2,000 degrees for 2 hours, NIST never-the-less used 42 inches of sag in their computer models and concluded failure! These are very basic inconsistencies and suggest some serious data integrity problems."

And one problem the group comes back to is that few have taken the time to comb through the massive Report. The likely reality, they say, is that most people assume that what's contained in the approximately 10,000 pages is correct because, "Frankly," Gage says, "people have been paid a lot of money - and these are the 'experts'. They weren't looking at the more reasonable hypothesis of controlled demolition. Instead, they just worked the numbers backwards until their desired conclusion - collapse by fire - was supported."

Too bad about the bogus submission by Wood et al.

Given all the other lies and deceptions of this administration (and its well placed Jewish supremacist handlers and facilitators); given the ongoing, long-planned mass murder in Iraq and Afghanistan; the long-planned attempt to start a war with Iran; the demonstrated contempt for the rule of law; the contempt for basic human and political rights, etc., is there any doubt whatsoever that 9/11 was an inside job by the same people?

The bloodthirsty political perverts and their henchmen lied about everything else, and crudely manipulated everything else, but, with regard to 9/11, uniquely, they tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth? LOL! Yeah right. Gimme a break... 

It seems the state apologists are now clearly on the defensive, and, judging by the desperation evident in their outrageous over-reaction to Rosie's comments, they're getting more than a little worried.

While I personally believe the U.S. will soon be a full-fledged police state (before any justice can be meted out to the responsible parties), we nevertheless don't need anyone helping the murderers out by floating nonsense theories about Star Trek weapons being used to bring down the towers. I wish Wood et al. would retract that submission.

911

The towers were such an obvious controlled demolition I find it very difficult to understand how anyone can think otherwise..3 buildings came down that day in the same manner..what has been the excuse and coverup of Bldg 7 ? No plane hit that building.

More than enough time has passed for the hysteria & shock of that day to have been replaced by rational common sense, not to mention the track record of this administration and Corporate who have profited from that day  for the reality that it was a deliberate act from within to further the gready goals of their long term plans, conceived before they illegally, through election fraud, gained the White House.

Rational thinking is long overdue. Wake up before they completely destroy this country.

Don't be so quick to dismiss the Wood challenge

Laser-type weapons have been under development for years.  Witnesses in a number of places across the world have described their use by the U.S.

I'm not ready to eliminate the possibility that they were used on 9-11 until a LOT more information comes out.

Iam a mother of two wonderfull kids.I have three chihuahuas and one boxer. Some are my beliefs are that families are very important and that life is to short to have hate in your life and in your heart. And that never go to bed mad and allways tell your loved ones you love them evey chance you can. As for my political beliefs i believe our government should be truthfull to us no matter what and that if they aren't they should be held responsible for their actions.

911

 It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what caused the towers to fall like they did. But then again some people are to scared and afraid to even think our own government is even capable of doing something so horrible like 911 to their own citizens. Well it was done by our own government. If one looks at any of the videos of the towers going down you can tell that it wasn't the planes and their impact that caused the towers to fall straight down. When a big building is going to be taken down they use explosives that are placed in different areas of the building.When the explosives are set off the building allways FALLS straight down just like the towers did on 911.You can ask any demolition expert and they will tell you the same as i just did.The question you all that do not believe need to ask your selfs is do you have the courage to seek the real truth or are you going to continue to be scared and afraid  because if you are going to continue to believe the every word of our President and the government you will eventually be in for a real shock.
