Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe We have discovered distinctive red/gray chips in all the samples we have studied of the dust produced by the destruction of the World Trade Center. Examination of four of these samples, collected from separate sites, is reported in this paper. These red/gray chips show marked similarities in all four samples. One sample was collected by a Manhattan resident about ten minutes after the collapse of the second WTC Tower, two the next day, and a fourth about a week later. The properties of these chips were analyzed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The red material contains grains approximately 100 nm across which are largely iron oxide, while aluminum is contained in tiny plate-like structures. Separation of components using methyl ethyl ketone demonstrated that elemental aluminum is present. The iron oxide and aluminum are intimately mixed in the red material. When ignited in a DSC device the chips exhibit large but narrow exotherms occurring at approximately 430 °C, far below the normal ignition temperature for conventional thermite. Numerous iron-rich spheres are clearly observed in the residue following the ignition of these peculiar red/gray chips. The red portion of these chips is found to be an unreacted thermitic material and highly energetic. Webmaster's Commentary: Folks, this is a major story and will be totally ignored by ABCNNBBCBS. This is a peer-reviewed report in a science journal which confirms the presence of a manufactured material consisting of tiny flakes of aluminum metal coated with iron oxide discovered at four different locations in the wreckage of the World Trade Center. Aluminum and iron oxide, mixed equally by weight, is the classic recipe for thermite. This material is very fine, increasing its burn speed, and apparently has some additional components (besides the very fine granular size) which lower the ignition temperature. This report directly contradicts the official government claim that there was no trace of internal explosives in the ruins of the World Trade Center.

What % of WTC was air? That asked you said: If it fell in 20 seconds as your video claims, that would be 11 seconds faster than freefall. Do you know/understand the exponential factor of gravity? Do you also realize that WTC did not fall to ground but piled up on itself to almost 14 floors? Your "story" is bullshit. It doesn't stand up to minimal scrutiny and it changes at every twist, e.g. It fell at near free fall speed!!!! So what if it fell at more than double free fall speed...!!! That all said...the video makes no claims...it simply DOCUMENTS the collapse time...why is it that none of you Moonbats have done that? Because if you did then you'd have to cue the toilet flush...
yeah? and you're an ugly bag of what % water? are you a blob pooled to the ground or can you stand erect, puff out you chest, and hurl derision and bull- shittery? read the link and get back with rebuttal (something pertinent to the thread, but lacking the drama you crave, so maybe you won't touch it): As Documentation of Thermitic Materials in the WTC Twin Towers Grows, Official Story Backers Ignore, Deny, Evade, and Dissemble The NIST investigation, having posted its Final Report with its absurd Building 7 joint-breaking-thermal-expansion theory in late 2008 and FAQ by Christmas, closed its doors before the independent researchers published their findings of active aluminothermic materials in WTC dust in a mainstream scientific journal; but not before they publicized findings of aluminothermic residues in the same dust samples; and not before they extracted from NIST a series of public statements, in press conferences and in written responses to requests for correction (RFCs), about the conduct of their inquiry into the cause of the skyscrapers' total destruction. As a result, NIST spokespersons are on the record saying they did not test for pyrotechnics, and offering rationales for failing to perform such tests. Those rationale -- or rationalizations -- summarized toward the end of this essay, include the assertion that testing for pyrotechnics "would not necessarily have been conclusive". That is partially true: failing to find pyrotechnic residues wouldn't rule out demolition, since demolition might have been implemented using an untraceable fuel such as hydrogen gas. But finding abundant and distributed pyrotechnic explosive residues would conclusively favor demolition - - particularly given the persuasive deductive arguments showing that the features of the buildings' destruction are incompatable with a purely gravity- driven collapse. The following timeline is narrowly focused on the emergence of public evidence indicating the use of aluminothermic pyrotechnics, ranging from incendiaries to high-explosives, in the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7, and on the way official bodies -- particular NIST -- treated that evidence.
It's an issue created out of thin air...the thermite Moonbat crowd once used MIST's analysis of the dust to "prove" thermite ignoring that the matter used for thermite is common in building materials...
And, regardless, the Moonbats use thermite for screeching on about free fall or near free fall [pick a plan] when, in fact, they did not fall at anything resembling free fall or near free fall...once that is debunked, thermite becomes moot...
Thermite is not an explosive...it's a cutter...thus thermite is ofen referred to as a "cutter charge"
what? you're claiming thermite is a building material?
irrelevant and logically quite fucked
ah good; you've read the title. try following each word after another until you reach the end. be sure to have handy reference item to unpuzzle tricky words, and don't fail to click interior links for full comprehension.
Nope...misrepresenting the actual fall time is crucial to the thermite blathering...
Misrepresenting the actual altitude of Flight 77 was crucial so .gov could claim that it hit poles that were in reality over 300 feet below the plane.
PLease...I know that you're grossly underinformed but don't ***think*** for one minute that includes me... Jones tries to claim that his "independent" analysis of WTC dust found traces of "thermite" when, in fact, it's simply the chemicals that can be used in thermite. His analysis does not differ from NIST's...
Feel free to explain the plane parts at the Pentagon...
Feel free to explain how a plane could take out poles that were 300 feet below it. Feel free to explain how a plane, which appeared to be what was seen on the video, rolls across the grass to the Pentagon, but there's no marks or damage from said plane on the grass.
what's crucial to you is plain to one sufficiently cynical, but irrelevant associations are still that--irrelevant associations betraying an agenda
bunkum--again, derision and bull-shittery does not rebuttal make
looky here! war's itty bitty bricks for building skyscrapers!

Thermite is not an explosive...it's a cutter...thus thermite is ofen referred to as a "cutter charge" As usual your comment is intentionally misleading. Standard thermite or thermate is not an explosive however nano-themite is both a cutter and an explosive. As well there is nothing that says that thermite cannot be used in combination with explosives e.g., themite to cut through structural supports and explosives to initiate the collapse. Does it give you a thrill to try to confuse people smarter than you?

Jones http://visibility911.com/blog/?cat=48 Formally published in a peer-reviewed Chemical Physics journal, today: “Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe” by Niels H. Harrit, Jeffrey Farrer, Steven E. Jones, Kevin R. Ryan, Frank M. Legge, Daniel Farnsworth, Gregg Roberts, James R. Gourley and Bradley R. Larsen The paper ends with this sentence: “Based on these observations, we conclude that the red layer of the red/gray chips we have discovered in the WTC dust is active, unreacted thermitic material, incorporating nanotechnology, and is a highly energetic pyrotechnic or explosive material.”
Jones tries to claim that his "independent" analysis of WTC dust found traces of "thermite" when, in fact, it's simply the chemicals that can be used in thermite. His analysis does not differ from NIST's...

That's what a good investigation would uncover. Why are you so afraid? You'd better check your own building as it might be getting it's own preparation for demolition as you post, since we keep getting these gov. warnings.

Come on you do know that those pancakes were pulverized to dust evidently by their own weight and rate of fall./s Three totally under engineered buildings approved by the NY Building dept on the brink of collapse and no one in New York even seems to care. How many others are out there New Yorkers or do you still not care? Thank god New York is not in an active earthquake zone.
