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.

When has a similar catastrophe occurred? The Empire State Building. It's still standing!!
The crash tore a hole about 18 ft (5.5 m) wide by 20 ft (6 m) tall in the 34th Street exterior of the Empire State Building. While the 78th and 79th floors bore the brunt of the damage, one of the B-25's engines fell down an elevator shaft and set off a major fire in the basement. The other engine hurtled across the building and tore through seven walls before emerging from the 33rd Street side of the tower. The debris crashed through the roof of a thirteen-story building across the street where another fire erupted. Other heavy wreckage, including the landing gear, also caused damage to the Empire State and nearby buildings while Stan Lomax reportedly saw part of a wing catapulting towards Madison Avenue.
Bullshit. You posted a picture of Building FIVE which WAS experiencing a major fire, trying to pass it off as Building SEVEN. Building SEVEN had a very minor fire yet collapsed, whereas Building FIVE had a seriously out of control fire yet DIDN'T collapse.
war has lost all credibility.
BTW, are you still tickling Rim Job's bunghole with your moustache?
I've caught him in numerous lies, and when called on it he simply ignores me and continues on with his repetitive BS.
You ARE the scumbag shill in my tagline video, aren't you?
What are the odds of this happening?

At the last moment, Lt. Col. Smith must have seen the profile of the Empire State Building looming out of the fog. He tried to pull up while banking away, but the distance was too short and the bomber's velocity too great. At approximately 9:49 AM, the B-25 plunged into the 78th and 79th floors of the skyscraper some 975 ft (295 m) above ground level. The plane impacted at an estimated speed of 200 miles per hour (320 km/h) making the building shake under the force of the collision. The high-speed crash also caused the plane's fuel tanks to explode, sending a fireball 100 ft (30 m) high and releasing blazing gasoline down the facade of the building. Sheets of flame also raced through the maze of hallways and stairwells inside the building, reaching at least as far down as the 75th floor.
Amazing!!! The Empire State Building did not collapse, nor the other buildings, which were hit by debris causing fires to erupt.

An out of control fire across most of its floors compromised a major support beam which, in turn, caused cascading failure which resulted in the building's collapse...

Not just Government shills. Be on the lookout for Media and Federal Reserve shills as well.

#183. To: TwentyTwelve, FormerLurker, wudidiz (#182)
That's true. I've already had to deal with at least one Federal Reserve shill; but it may likely have been at least three. They also resorted to lying and outright intentional misrepresentations of others' statements and comments.
Be on the lookout for Media and Federal Reserve shills as well.

You choice was as ill conceived as your accusation. I would have loved to have found some complicity inside the US government regarding this attack but I have never been presented with any evidence that runs contrary to what I saw with my own eyes, hard about in the days thereafter and read about in the ensuing years.
Only that you're a well-trained govbot.

The B-25 that hit the cement and steel framed Empire State was doing abot 100 knots...
The Empire State Building.
#192. To: litus (#171)
200 knots...sorry...typo...much slower - by more than a half - than the planes that hit the mesh steel of WTC...

LOL. That explains a lot about NPR's financial coverage.

NPR isn't a financial network and it doesn't pretend to be. They do have a podcacst "Planet Money" that does a good job of reporting - mostly a result of Adam Davidson's abilities as a reporter.

Incorrectly when you bothered to...the resident spammer won't tho...why is that? What's he afraid of?
I answered all your questions.
#199. To: RickyJ (#195)
WRONG. And you've been shown to be wrong and I can only conclude now that you WANT to PROMOTE that lie So, continue to lie, as ForwmerLurker did and, from a cut and paste here continues to do, you will go on bozo.
WTC towers were cement and steel framed too.
#200. To: bluegrass (#187)
I've seen no evidence to convince me otherwise. The thermite BS doesn't hold water for any number of reasons not the least of which is that the collapse started at the top and then mid building and then cascaded from there...
An excellent description of the Feds' explanation of 9/11.
#201. To: litus (#179)
FL is a lying shill...the picture was posted in response to him claming that there were no fires raging out of control on 9/11. It was never intended to be limited to building 7. Ask him to buck up the post...he won't...
Why would he have done that?
#202. To: Critter, mininggold (#177)
Did he "lose", MG?
You ARE the scumbag shill in my tagline video, aren't you?
#203. To: TwentyTwelve (#178)
FL isn;t being ignored...he's bozo'd because he's stupid...I told him FLAT OUT he was bozo'd and if he thinks I am simply ignoring him then he's underscoring that I was correct in re his stupidity,
#204. To: war (#191)
Not according to the article I previously posted. It was going about 200 mph...not knots: The B-25 that hit the cement and steel framed Empire State was doing abot 100 knots... [sic: later you corrected to 200 knots]
The plane impacted at an estimated speed of 200 miles per hour (320 km/h) making the building shake under the force of the collision. The high-speed crash also caused the plane's fuel tanks to explode, sending a fireball 100 ft (30 m) high and releasing blazing gasoline down the facade of the building.
