Quote from Haroki:
But you had to be honest with your beliefs, despite the lack of evidence to support your position, and the utter inability to counter answers to your "questions" about the events of 9/11.

Discusses the collapse of Building 7:
A few points:
In comparing WTC7 to the Bankers Trust(which didn't collapse), which were roughly in the same perimeter of the collapse, the site says:
As you can see, the building never caught fire so it was never in any danger of collapse. It also was constructed differently, with a web column design. The interior columns were not pushed out to the perimeter.
1. Fire doesn't cause steel framed buildings to collapse
Have a look(Madrid fire):
Notice:
A) Steel framed building
B) Fires on multiple floors, and floor wide
C) Building gutted by fire, frame remains intact, no collapse
There's no comparison when comparing a few small fires in WTC 7 to this.
2.
The interior columns were not pushed out to the perimeter.
That's interesting. How does debri from a falling WTC1,2 push the *interior* columns of WTC7 out? And even if it could, there's no *pictoral* evidence of this. Pure fantasy.
Next point:
The site shows this photo as evidence of "large fires":
Then says:
The above photo is very different than the photos you usually see on conspiracy sites.
Duh. Of course it is. This is obviously the dust and debris from WTC1,2 collapse, not fire from WTC7.
Next point, Silverstein's comment:
The website tries to make out that Silverstein is referring to getting the firefighters out of the building with the "pull it" comment. Numerous references are made of the use of the word "pull" in referencing pulling firefighters out, because of a fear that the building might collapse.
If this were true, it's interesting why they might come to this conclusion and not come to the same conclusion regarding other buildings, most closer to the WTC, which did not collapse. But just about this one, a building not visibly damaged much from the collapse, a steel framed building - where it is known that fires simply don't cause steel framed buildings to collapse. At least, not before or after 911.
In any case, this is the immediate context of Silverstein's comment:
I remember getting a call from the Fire Department commander, telling me they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and I said, you know, 'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is just pull it.' And they made that decision to pull and then we watched the building collapse."
Do you see any reference to firefighters getting out of the building here when using the "pull it" comment? No, the comment is referring to
the building - and is even referenced as such in the last sentence:
And they made that decision to pull and then we watched the building collapse.
If this is referring to firefighters exiting the building just before collapse - how fortunate they got out right in time! Sounds like a great hollywood flick.
I really don't think I need to read the rest of this website. It's an insult to thinking people.
