Dear
fellow concerned and questioning American,
I have read and was
astounded by “Painful Questions” about the 9/11 NY terrorist attack, a book by
Eric Hufschmid. The original “conspiracy theory” about 9/11 is the theory put
forth by the Bush administration itself. This official conspiracy theory has
now been endorsed and
reinforced by The 9/11 Commission Report. But this theory is full
of holes. You be the judge. You answer the questions that are presented
here--or demand that the government answer them. Researchers I hired have confirmed the
following.
Q “The WTC was probably one
of the more resistant tall buildings….they just don’t build them as tough as
the
Q “A steel building survived fires in experiments with extreme
temperatures beyond the range possible with jet fuel.” – Cardington fire
tests. www.corusconstruction.com/legacy/fire/images/fireres_section15.pdf
Q No steel building has
ever been destroyed by fire – Fire Engineering
Q “The specifics of the
fires in WTC 7 and how they caused the building to collapse remain unknown at
this time.” Federal Emergency Management Administration. www.fema.gov/library/wtcstudy.shtm Chapter 5 Page 31 May 2002

WTC “is a half-baked farce.” - Fire Engineering Magazine. Jan 2002

Q All of the important
evidence from the disaster was destroyed, illegally, and before the
investigation was even concluded, some before it was begun! – Fire

investigating the WTC collapses vs. $40 million on

Q The
Q Building 7 at the WTC,
47 floors, steel, and constructed differently from the twin towers, fell at
5:30 but it was never hit by an airplane, had no significant fire!
Q Jet fuel burns at too
low a temperature to significantly harm steel. The black smoke means that the
fire did not reach the maximum temperature for jet fuel.
Q The fires were not long enough (only 1-2
hours) to harm the steel.
Q Yet days later, there
were “hot spots” in the building that still exceeded the maximum temperature
possible from jet fuel – but not from explosives. http://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2001/ofr-01-0405/ofr-01-0405.html
Q The gusting wind on the
towers had at times been greater than the impact of the airliners. Neither
tower was bent nor did they creak or groan at any time. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/buildingbig/wonder/structure/world_trade.html

Q The buildings collapsed
at the maximum speed of gravity – impossible without explosives. (Each floor
hit would have slowed the fall some, more at the beginning.) http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?articleID=000B7FEB-A88C-1C75-9B81809EC588EF21

Q The clouds of concrete
shooting out of the buildings are only possible with explosives.
Q If the force of the
falling building is strong enough to pulverize concrete then the bolts and
rivets would have to hold beyond that force – and then give way. The force to
pulverize concrete is greater than the force to sheer or stretch steel bolts
and rivets. You cannot have it both ways.
Q All the fires and crashes
were asymmetrical; they did not hit the center of the buildings. That means
that only one side of the building was harmed at most. All three collapses are
too perfect. Ask any demolition expert how hard it is to do this.
Q
“I’m still to this day amazed
that he [alleged pilot on Flight 77] could have flown into the Pentagon,"
according to the hijackers pilot instructor. "He could not fly at
all." Yet, “The steep turn was so smooth, the sources say, it's clear
there was no fight for control going on. And the complex maneuver suggests the
hijackers had better flying skills than many investigators first believed.” http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F20A11FD35550C778CDDAC0894DA404482
Q NATIONAL COMMISSION ON
TERRORIST ATTACKS UPON THE UNITED STATES, Public Hearing, Friday, May 23,
2003: Mr. Mineta: “There was a young man
who had come in and said to the vice president, "The plane [Flight 77] is
50 miles out…. 30 miles…10 miles out” – Cheney knew this plane was coming at
Washington and the Pentagon and yet no planes had been scrambled to protect
Washington after over 1 hour since the WTC was attacked. Even at 400 miles per
hour, it takes over 7 minutes to travel 50 miles, more since the plane was at
altitude. Cheney knew the plane was coming when it was even farther away since
Mr. Mineta had not been present when Flight 77 was first reported to Mr.
Cheney. They had known this flight was missing for over an hour after the first
plane crashed into the
This
book is very disturbing. One thing is for certain; the facts surrounding the
multiple WTC building collapses and Pentagon attack prove our government is
not telling us the whole truth. I shudder to think that what this book seems
to prove is true. Ask your friends who are experts on the topics covered.
No one can say for sure that Bush knew. I think he’s just being lied to and
led. But I am now convinced that it was not just an error of omission. It
seems clear to me that someone executed a master of deception’s plan and thousands
of innocent people. Osama and Bush may just be patsies [people to take the
blame].
I would love to have your view once you have read it. If you are an engineer, download our simple spreadsheet, fill in the blanks and expand it to prove or disprove your/anyone’s theory. TowerHeatMass.xls $10,000 prize to any full blown proof of how the Towers Collapsed. You must answer everything in the spreadsheet and expand it to cover all the details an engineer would know to consider. I am also appalled by the media. We commissioned a Zogby Poll that reported that 66% of New Yorkers wanted the 9/11 investigation re-opened. Moreover, it found that 49% thought that VIP's in the government knew and did nothing. The New York Times did not think this was "news fit to print". We have to stop the media coverup, complicity, and/or treason, in my opinion.
I
will send at least one free copy to any fire station, police precinct, judge,
or politician.

P.S.
Mr. Huftschmid looks for conspiracies and asks intelligent questions. Secrecy
begs questions. Being right or wrong on one issue is not proof of right or
wrong on another. He unnecessarily complicates things with questions about the
Kennedy assassination on which I am not commenting, pro or con. Logically, who
would be the least afraid of ridicule and first to find a conspiracy? Remember
that in the legend, the wolf did finally come.
