@Happy_Killbot, where in any of what you posted does it prove that terrorists were responsible for 9/11? Hint: Nowhere. The only thing that comes close is the statement by Khalid Sheikh Mohammed confessing to 9/11, organizing the 1993 World Trade Center bombing; the Bali nightclub bombings; and Richard Reid's attempted shoe bombing. Talk about a self-aggrandizing twat. He ranks right up there with Trump on both that and creditability. P.S. Cute picture. Did you get it for free with six packets of Kool-Aid mix?

mcgeo52 replies on Sep 13, 2019:

@Paul4747, I never said that the planes had to hit an exact floor on either tower. I am saying that all three towers were rigged for demolition. Yes, it was an inside job that required the cooperation of the owner of the towers, and the company responsible for the security of the towers. Why would Larry Silverstein want his towers demolished? 1) They were in need of renovation but, because of all of the asbestos used in their construction, that would have been cost prohibitive. 2) They were fully insured, so he would get the money when they came down. They were actually doubly insured against a terrorist attack, and he was paid double. Why would the security company cooperate? 1) Silverstein told them to. 2) The owners of the company were in on the deal for their own reasons. Securacom, as the company was then known, was backed by the Kuwait-American Corp. The managing director at KuwAm, Wirt D. Walker III, was also a principal at Securacom, and Walker and Marvin Bush and are listed in SEC filings as significant shareholders in both companies during that period. In case you don't recognize those two names, Marvin Bush is W's younger brother and Wirt (his nickname for Herbert) Walker was his cousin. Through their holdings in defense contractors, the Bush/Walker family profited immensely from the two wars we were lied into based on 9/11. Call me a cynic, but when the money trail lines up that well with the physical evidence, I know what I am going to believe. Speaking of the money trail, there was also the matter of the $2.3 trillion dollars that Donald Rumsfeld announced on September 10, 2001 was unaccounted for in the Pentagon budget. The team in the Pentagon assigned to investigate the "shortfall" was in the office that took the direct hit on 9/11. Not to worry; there were offsite backup copies of everything. Care to guess where? You win the grand prize if said Tower 7. In short, there was more than enough motive and opportunity for an inside job.

@Happy_Killbot, I am not shifting the burden of proof. You have yet to provide a single convincing piece of evidence to back your initial assertion. You are the one who claimed that hijackers did it. They are, as you point out, innocent until proven guilty. So far, the jury is voting to acquit.

@Paul4747 to use the quote you posted: ' Blast expert Allyn E. Kilsheimer was the first structural engineer to arrive at the Pentagon after the crash and helped coordinate the emergency response. "It was absolutely a plane, and I'll tell you why," says Kilsheimer, CEO of KCE Structural Engineers PC, Washington, D.C. "I saw the marks of the plane wing on the face of the building. I picked up parts of the plane with the airline markings on them. I held in my hand the tail section of the plane, and I found the black box." Kilsheimer's eyewitness account is backed up by photos of plane wreckage inside and outside the building. Kilsheimer adds: "I held parts of uniforms from crew members in my hands, including body parts. Okay?"' 1) "I held in my hand the tail section of the plane." No. The tail section of the plane is bigger than him. No way he held it in his hand. 2) "I found the black box." No again. He was "he first structural engineer to arrive at the Pentagon after the crash." At around 3:40 a.m. on September 14, a paramedic and a firefighter who were searching through the debris of the impact site found two dark boxes, about 1.5 feet (46 cm) by 2 feet (61 cm) long. They called for an FBI agent, who in turn called for someone from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The NTSB employee confirmed that these were the flight recorders ("black boxes") from American Airlines Flight 77. Sorry, but I'm not buying the load of fertilizer you are selling.

mcgeo52 replies on Sep 13, 2019:

@Marcie1974, I have talked with astronauts and have no reason to believe that we did not land on the moon. That did not require any violations of the laws of physics. On the other hand, the magic bullet theory required to explain the Warren Commission's version of JFK's assassination is completely absurd. I was not at all surprised when a Congressional inquiry concluded that the Warren Commission reported was not what happened. Believing that a tower designed to take the impact of a 747 was taken down by a 757 would be a major stretch. To believe that three towers, each designed to take the direct impact of a 747, could be taken down by two 757s is too much. I remember watching the two towers collapse and my initial reaction was, "This looks too much like controlled demolition." Then I watched the way Tower 7 came down and it was undoubtedly a classic demo job. Other than 9/11 there is no case ever of any steel framed skyscraper collapsing due to fire. Nor were there any cases of airplanes evaporating when they hit a building. To answer your question, I examine the evidence and decide whether or not to believe the official story. Believe it or not, the people in charge will lie if it benefits them.

@Paul4747, to quote the article you posted re the Pentagon: "Why wasn't the hole as wide as a 757's 124-ft.-10-in. wingspan? A crashing jet doesn't punch a cartoon-like outline of itself into a reinforced concrete building, says ASCE team member Mete Sozen, a professor of structural engineering at Purdue University. In this case, one wing hit the ground; the other was sheared off by the force of the impact with the Pentagon's load-bearing columns, explains Sozen, who specializes in the behavior of concrete buildings. What was left of the plane flowed into the structure in a state closer to a liquid than a solid mass. "If you expected the entire wing to cut into the building," Sozen tells PM, "it didn't happen."" So, one wing hit the ground??? The pictures of the lawn in front of the hole prove this theory is complete bullshit. Each of the wings either: a) went into the building, or b) were knocked off the fuselage and stayed outside the building, or c) didn't exist. Those are the only three choices other than "they evaporated", which didn't happen. We can rule out "a" since neither wing was found on the lawn. We can also rule out "b" since neither wing was found in the building. To put things in perspective , each wing had an engine attached to it that was larger than an ambulance and smaller than a fire truck. I use those two particular objects a references because they were clearly visible in pictures of the Pentagon lawn. Those engines had parts, made from alloys that would not simply evaporate, as large as that ambulance. Where are they???

I was so favorably impressed that I spent some time checking his record. He has consistently been on the right side of the issues for decades.

I never said Buddhism was a religion. I don't believe it meets the definition. Nor do I believe that Jainism or Taoism meet the definition. But, as you just wrote, in Ramakrishna Worship centers their holy trio Ramakrishna, Vivekananda and Sarada are worshipped. I would contend that by worshipping these three they have elevated them to the level of deities.
