Hey Paul, have you checked out http://www.patriotsquestion911.com/engineers.html for their points of view regarding the WTC collapses? The professional engineers and architects noted there question the collapses based on their respective backgrounds. Why don't you challenge them instead of easily finding fault in Passenger57's comments?

Hey Steve,

I can't agree with you on your comment:

"Keep this in mind. These people (theorists) DEEPLY hurt the real sufferers of 9/11 which are the families who lost people.The theorists are doing nothing but trying to gather fame and make money off of the pain of others."

I take it you haven't read the unanswered questions the 9/11 victims' families had of various government officials as listed at http://www.911independentcommission.org/questions.html.

Did Fox News ever buy into the report below? I doubt the Taliban leader should have been trusted, but Fox News may not have ever issued a retraction or follow-up report. Apparently Fox News didn't buy into it since it's shown those suspicious (faked or real) videos that bin Laden supposedly several times since 9/11. Apparently the U.S. Govt. didn't buy into what the unnamed Taliban leader said either.

Dec 26, 2001, Fox News Report: Bin Laden Already Dead

Usama bin Laden has died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication, the Pakistan Observer reported, citing a Taliban leader who allegedly attended the funeral of the Al Qaeda leader.

"The Coalition troops are engaged in a mad search operation but they would never be able to fulfill their cherished goal of getting Usama alive or dead," the source said.

Bin Laden, according to the source, was suffering from a serious lung complication and succumbed to the disease in mid-December, in the vicinity of the Tora Bora mountains. The source claimed that bin Laden was laid to rest honorably in his last abode and his grave was made as per his Wahabi belief.

About 30 close associates of bin Laden in Al Qaeda, including his most trusted and personal bodyguards, his family members and some "Taliban friends," attended the funeral rites. A volley of bullets was also fired to pay final tribute to the "great leader."

The Taliban source who claims to have seen bin Laden's face before burial said "he looked pale ... but calm, relaxed and confident."

Asked whether bin Laden had any feelings of remorse before death, the source vehemently said "no." Instead, he said, bin Laden was proud that he succeeded in his mission of igniting awareness amongst Muslims about hegemonistic designs and conspiracies of "pagans" against Islam. Bin Laden, he said, held the view that the sacrifice of a few hundred people in Afghanistan was nothing, as those who laid their lives in creating an atmosphere of resistance will be adequately rewarded by Almighty Allah.

When asked where bin Laden was buried, the source said, "I am sure that like other places in Tora Bora, that particular place too must have vanished."

9/11 Commission Report Cover-up of Norman Mineta's Sworn Testimony on May 23, 2003

Check out what I posted at http://www.opednews.com/maxwrite/diarypage.php?did=4831

Who's telling the truth? What did the "orders" mean? I provide a step-by-step, link-by-link analysis, and I used the official 9/11 Commission site to prove there was indeed a cover-up. No one ever said officially or in the news media that Mineta lied or had his times wrong. Why not? To do so, would have brought attention to what Mineta said and required either the 9/11 Commission members or the news media to do some investigating and report on it? Apparently no one wanted to contradict Cheney's 'official' time of arrival into the PEOC - 9:58 AM on Sept 11, 2001 - AFTER THE PENTAGON ATTACK. Mineta claimed Cheney was already in the PEOC at around 9:20 AM and the Pentagon attack OCCURRED AT AROUND 9:37 AM! Mineta indicated that Cheney was in the PEOC during the attack yet the 9/11 Commission Report implied he wasn't! No details of Mineta's SWORN TESTIMONY EVER MADE IT INTO THE 9/11 COMMISSION REPORT YET YOU CAN READ ALL OF IT ON THE OFFICIAL 9/11 COMMISSION SITE! THE TRANSCRIPT OF HIS TESTIMONY CONTRADICTS THE REPORT! I cover all of this at the above noted link and I also mention page 41 of the report in some detail which is similar to Mineta's testimony yet the initial distance (80 miles vs 50 in Mineta's testimony) and time (around 10:15 AM vs 9:25 or so in Mineta's testimony) are off for whatever aircraft that Cheney gives the approval to attack yet all the aircraft (Flights 11, 175, 93 and 77) had already terminated before 10:15AM! The paragraph on page 41 of the report alludes to a vague aircraft and finishes without any resolution as to what happened to the aircraft that Cheney's been given the approval to shoot down!
