| 1. Nowhere does Silverstein say that WTC7 was 'pulled'.
2. WTC7 was not 'pulled'. 'Pulled' is a demolition term for actually, literally pulling a building down using heavy equipment and cables.
3. The FDNY Fire Chief, concerned about a collapse of WTC7, 'pulled' the firefighting crew from the building a few hours prior to the collapse.
Here is an e-mail from now retired FDNY Chief Daniel Nigro...
Regarding WTC 7: The long-awaited US Government NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) report on the collapse of WTC 7 is due to be published at the end of this year (although it has been delayed already a few times [ adding fuel to the conspiracy theorists fires!]). That report should explain the cause and mechanics of the collapse in great detail. Early on the afternoon of September 11th 2001, following the collapse of WTC 1 & 2, I feared a collapse of WTC 7 (as did many on my staff).
The reasons are as follows:
1 - Although prior to that day high-rise structures had never collapsed, The collapse of WTC 1 & 2 showed that certain high-rise structures subjected to damage from impact and from fire will collapse.
2. The collapse of WTC 1 damaged portions of the lower floors of WTC 7.
3. WTC 7, we knew, was built on a small number of large columns providing an open Atrium on the lower levels.
4. numerous fires on many floors of WTC 7 burned without sufficient water supply to attack them.
For these reasons I made the decision (without consulting the owner, the mayor or anyone else - as ranking fire officer, that decision was my responsibility) to clear a collapse zone surrounding the building and to stop all activity within that zone. Approximately three hours after that order was given, WTC 7 collapsed.
Conspiracy theories abound and I believe firmly that all of them are without merit.
Regards, Dan Nigro
Chief of Department FDNY (retired)

In his usual form, former U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ritter told a packed crowd at the Oriental Theater in Denver to stop whining about corporate media and become their own intelligence operatives. We the people have the same resources and tools that intelligence networks rely heavily on; it’s called “Google” he said.
In his hilarious analogy, the American people like baby birds wait each night in front of their television sets for the corporate news bird to land in their living room and lovingly puke down our necks with that day’s regurgitated news. Suggesting that as our own intelligence operatives we can’t allow CNN, FOX, NBC, and ABC to edit and cherry pick information, but ask questions and find the answers ourselves.
In that vein TruthAlliance.net Editor Jason Charles had a few questions for Mr. Ritter which he graciously allowed us to film. We explored 3 topics, if the Bush admin got its way in the mid-east what would it look like, how can these dis-separate yet justice driven revolutions in America unite, and his amazing thoughts on a new, fully empowered investigation into the cause of 9-11.
He asked, “Did Bush and Cheney Plan the demise of the building? Was this a terrorist attack by Al-Qaeda? Or was it something in between? Well frankly we don’t know.” How important is this to establishing justice? Mr. Ritter seems to think it is an “absolute requirement to know what happened on 9-11”

| Ritter has absolutely no special information related to 9/11.
What he does have (or at least did have) is $400,000 from Saddam's regime. | | | | Cowboy | | Posted: Thu Jan 24, 2008 5:23 am Post subject: |

| Silverstein did say 'and we diced to pull it.'
The audio and video has been provided countless times.
How many times have you changed your story by now to shoe-in with the ongoing claptrap?
And you still have not provided one shred of evidence. You believe in a theory, a conspiracy theory and miracles. But then again, you're a 'catholic.' | | | | Cowboy | | Posted: Sat Jan 26, 2008 6:59 am Post subject: |
| | Quote: | | Silverstein did say 'and we diced to pull it.' |
(I assume you mean 'decided', rather than 'diced')
Yep. The firefighter effort, which was pulled about 3 hours before the collapse.
Nowhere does Silverstein say that WTC7 was 'pulled'.
(By the way, 'pulled' is used in demolition for when a building is literally pulled down using heavy equipment and cables, not for demolition using explosives.)

 Still not a single shred of actual evidence from you that there was a conspiracy. | | | | DanielDives | | Posted: Sat Jan 26, 2008 4:20 pm Post subject: |
| Dust to Dust and Ashes to Ashes. Just like your 'bible tells you.
Your conspiray theory still doesn't hold any water [or molten steel, and all those steel-cored buildings collapsing]. But hey, you've got all the evidence you won't show us. So who am I to contradict your fairy tail? | | | | Cowboy | | Posted: Sun Jan 27, 2008 2:46 am Post subject: |
| | Yet again you give us trite comments and nothing that can actually refute the NIST reports using science or facts. | | | | | ©2002-2009 WarWithoutEnd.co.uk |
