One World Trade Center, 90 floors up so far and scheduled for completion in 2013.
Under a new agreement, the bankruptcy of American Airlines’ parent company won’t completely halt pending litigation from the World Trade Center’s developer over claims the carrier failed to prevent the hijacking of Flight 11 during the Sept. 11th terrorist attack.
In a long-running legal battle, World Trade Center developer Larry Silverstein has accused AMR Corp. and its American Airlines subsidiary of failure to put into place safeguards — such as securing the cockpit — to prevent terrorists from seizing control of its airplane. Flight 11 crashed into the site’s North Tower with 81 passengers and 11 crew members on board.
AMR’s Chapter 11 filing last November automatically put a stop to all pending litigation against the company, including the World Trade Center suit. But under the deal AMR filed in bankruptcy court Thursday, plaintiffs may continue pursuing injury and damage claims “solely to the extent of available and collectible [insurance] coverage.”
Court papers show the agreement, which isn’t subject to court approval, precludes plaintiffs from trying to recover for “intentional conduct or punitive damages.”
Physical Evidence for the Controlled Demolition of WTC7 includes:
The rapid onset of “collapse;”
The symmetrical, straight–down nature of the “collapse;”
The time taken by the collapse, approximately 6.5 seconds, with 2.25 seconds of actual free fall (about 105 feet) (David Chandler found 2.5 seconds);
The neat, tidy debris pile, a few stories high;
The molten metal and high temperatures observed for weeks afterwards in the debris pile;
Nano-thermite and iron–rich microspherules found in the dust;
Evidence of corroded steel with sulfur found by FEMA. Sulfur is a component of a thermate reaction that can be used in controlled demolitions.
Eye–witness Evidence for the Controlled Demolition of WTC7 includes:
The testimony of Barry Jennings, who was trapped in the building with Michael Hess by an explosion before either tower fell.
Video–taped statements of firemen and policemen before 5:20 pm on 9/11/01 showing pre–knowledge of the “collapse.”
Video–taped statement of a witness who overheard a “count–down” for WTC7.
Videos showing the actual collapse of WTC7, with various evidences of controlled demolition such as a kink in the roof, possible exploding charges at upper stories, and so on.
Audible explosions heard by eye–witnesses just before and during the collapse of WTC7.
Anecdotal Evidence for the Controlled Demolition of WTC7:
When Barry Jennings and Michael Hess arrived at the Office of Emergency Management (OEM), Floor 23, in WTC7 around 9 am, they found it empty. Jennings made a phone call and was told he must “get out of there.”
The BBC and CNN early announcements of the complete collapse of WTC7 have never been satisfactorily explained.
Circumstantial Evidence for the Controlled Demolition of WTC7 includes:
Removal and destruction of WTC7 steel before examination. Real examination of the steel was denied to all.
Omission from the 9/11 Commission Report of any mention of WTC7. The complete collapse of a 47–story building is not trivial.
NIST’s failure to seriously consider other causes besides fire for the building collapses strongly suggests government interference in a scientific process, and points to a selective and thereby fraudulent investigation. The standards for fire investigations call for tests for explosives. No such tests were made.
Summary:
NIST postulated the least likely explanation for the destruction of WTC7, and ignored all other physical and other evidence.
NIST’s assumptions or inputs used in its computer modeling are open to severe criticism. Also, the details of the modeling program are not available for independent review.
NIST’s theory and approach lack scientific credibility.

Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth
We first frame the issue by noting that the answer to this question does not negate the evidence that the Towers were destroyed through controlled demolition. The massive amount of evidence gathered by AE911Truth and countless others demonstrates that the combined effects of the impacts and the ensuing fires do not account for the complete and explosive destruction of the WTC skyscrapers.
The explosive destruction of the Twin Towers actually began at floors with minimal damage from the planes. In regards to the North Tower, the collapse initiated at the 98th floor, which in fact had minimal structural damage. Only the tip of the right wing cut through that floor.
Left: WTC1 north face; Right: Damage relative to a Boeing 767. Note that only the tip of the starboard (right) wing cut through the 98th floor.
According to the NIST report (NCSTAR 1, pg. 87), the collapse of the North Tower began at this floor. Though the NIST report never specifically states that the 98th floor was the least damaged, the information provided in their report clearly demonstrates this as the case. The 98th floor had only five perimeter columns severed, and the table provided in NCSTAR 1-2, pg. 205 indicates that NIST does not list floor 98 as having any of its core columns severed.

In a recent announcement, a newly-formed organization and website, the 9/11 Consensus Panel, unveiled 13 points on which Panel Members have achieved strong consensus. These points, the first group in a projected series, are aimed at providing the world with a clear statement, by way of expert independent opinion, of the best evidence opposing the official, government narrative about the events of 9/11.
The following video shows an interview of Elizabeth Woodworth by Face to Face on the subject of the 9/11 Consensus Panel.
What began in Iowa on Tuesday, January 3, 2012 and will continue to June 26 is an American tradition that AE911Truth needs you to participate in. Americans will be heading to their caucuses and primaries to select their preferred Presidential candidate. There are currently many Republican candidates traversing states and making local appearances in small venues. This gives you, the supporters of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, a unique accessible opportunity to interact with the candidates and to make a simple statement or ask a simple question to educate and pin them down on the issue of a new investigation and have them state their stance – publicly, and ideally in front of the media. You can find the candidate’s web-sites to see where they will be meeting voters near you.
Because it is important to engage the candidate and the other people in attendance with as much finesse as possible, we suggest:
Option 1: (A statement)
This statement is fairly concise yet includes the important detail that we are not alone in our call for a real investigation. By not asking a specific question, and thereby not eliciting a response, it may very well have more impact during the awkward moment following with the audience, media, and the candidate himself.
[Senator/Governor/Representative or other appropriate title] ___________:
Many 9/11 victims family members have called for a real investigation into the destruction of the World Trade Center Towers and high-rise Building 7. Even Bob Graham, Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, has called for further investigation into the 9/11 attacks. Several of the 9/11 Commissioners cast doubts on their own report, complaining of a lack of cooperation by the Bush Administration and outright lies from top military officers. One Commissioner resigned in protest, refusing to be part of another government whitewash, which he later termed a “national scandal.”
Numerous 9/11 family members support the 1,600 Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth who are demanding a new investigation into the explosive destruction of the three high-rises.
We look forward to your support with this vital American issue when you become president.
AE911Truth Congressional Outreach Team leader Wayne Coste and other 9/11 Truth activists prepare to engage the public about the destruction of WTC Building 7. Coste used the AE911Truth “human microphone speech” developed by his Congressional Outreach Team to inform the crowd.
Written by Wayne Coste
With assistance provided by Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, the Remember Building 7 campaign and NYC CAN organized Occupy Building 7, a two-day protest designed to raise awareness about the destruction of Building 7, the third World Trade Center skyscraper to fall on 9/11. On November 19 and 20, the marches and vigils were held from Zuccotti Park in the Wall Street District of Manhattan along the sidewalks for several blocks to the site of the rebuilt WTC Building 7.
“ I was told afterward that some of the police quietly asked us for information about the 9/11 evidence ”
Zuccotti Park, which is the heart of the Occupy Wall Street movement, lies in the figurative shadow of the Twin Towers and in the literal shadow of their replacement tower that is currently under construction and now reaches over 20 stories into the air.
Over the last two months, AE911Truth supporters and others have provided “occupiers” across the country with information about the explosive 9/11 evidence. The occupiers are becoming informed about the logical and scientific fallacies in the official accounts that make those versions not just implausible, but impossible.
This May 10, 2011 interview of Dr. Niels Harrit, Associate Professor Emeritus of Chemistry at the University of Copenhagen, was conducted by Michael Rudin of the BBC.
