Peterson afraid of 9/11 truthers?

The three towers (WTC 1, 2 and WTC7) that all fell at freefall speed on 9/11 appear to have been brought down with military grade explosives according to Danish scientist Prof Harrit in a peer-reviewed scientific paper. Compare that with the military grade anthrax that followed immediately after 9/11 and you have a pretty impressive set of coincidences that has not been explained by the official 9/11 story.

Here’s a question that I believe is pertinent but is never answered.

After TWA flight 800 went down in the atlantic, they spent years retrieving the evidence from the bottom of the ocean. They placed it all in a hangar, and put the plane back together in order to determine what happened. They got the plane within 92% complete.

What happened to the chain of evidence where all the structural steel would have been kept, examined, and a cause determined SCIENTIFICALLY and forensically?

I’ll tell you.

They destroyed the evidence so that no one will EVER be able to say exactly what happened.

freefall speed
explosives in metal fragments
structural engineers for 911 truth
no answer for building 7 falling in its own footprint

yeah, I am certain that the zany conspiracy theorists simply want to create havoc by asking all of these sensitive questions that politicians RUN from.

It’s my wager that the true numbers are higher than 25% for seekers of the truth.

It is also evident that Collin Peterson would never be interested in truth, because the light might shine on the fact that he is also a globalist, rather than a sovereign american citizen.

just another traitor. they will get theirs.

I’m not sure how accurate it is to say 911 truthers are left leaning. Some are, but some I’ve seen are devotees of Ron Paul or Alex Jones. Also, I’ll believe Peterson the truthers bring up 911 regardless of the subject because I’ve seen them do that, but his “people” by which I presume he means his constituents, are pretty purple, if not reddish.

Nonetheless, I do sympathize with congressmen who have to cope with birthers etc. at their forums. I see how the first commenters repeat their claims rather than addressing the accusation that they disrupt unrelated meetings. The truthers I’ve personally seen have been polite, but these birthers don’t seem to know how to behave in public.

Regardless of how polite we are, those of us who know 1) that science demands verification–replication–and 2) that NIST has provided no evidence for their conclusion–we are in the right when we question this. Furthermore, many of us also know well from scientific measurement that NIST’s conclusions are wrong. That they will use all manner of means apparently to avoid doing real science is utter bullshit. In the end, politeness may not be the most important aspect to focus upon when judging a person. Perhaps rationality, science literacy, honesty and justice should be prized more highly.

Over 700 Professional Arctitects & Engineers have put their reputations on the line & signed on to say there is NO WAY those three towers came down at that speed without explosives being planted.

Peterson should act like a fearless man & meet with these people. Also, Collen Rowley is also a 9.11 truth inqiurer, who happened to work for the FBI in Minn & eyewtinessed obstruction at the highest levels of the FBI.

sg, I appreciate the politeness, and it definitely makes people more willing to listen. While you have a point that the other virtues should be prized more highly, too often people’s motives are attacked. Sometimes someone will look at the evidence and honestly decide you just haven’t made the case.

Eric, who hasn’t made the case? The official 9/11 story was being broadcasted as it happened. OBL was identified before the towers fell. The cause of collapse (of the twin towers) was broadcast by “Harley Davidson” man – yet it is still not clear to anyone else – and didn’t explain WTC7 that fell down at 5.20pm. How did people know that the building was coming down (it was announced on the news channels beforehand) if the collpase was truly unique? There are so many unanswered questions and when you apply the universal legal measure: motive, means and opportunity, you find that the official story does not stack up at all. For example, how were the hijackers identified? How do you know there was no false identities being used? Why does the official story of 9/11 have the hijackers planning their attacks across the road from CIA/NSA Headquarters!?

I’m glad that uneducated, rascist, nose-breathing, rightwingnutjobs have something harmless to foam at the mouth about… Having you blither away banging on keyboards in your dark closets keeps the rest of normal society safe…

There is always room for politeness in public discourse.

But when the elected representatives ignore calls for truth, calls for rationality, and calls for redress, it is time to get…well, less than polite.

Screw ‘em. They work for us.

If they politely investigated the facts, asked the hard questions, and poured the answers back down to those who request them, then we would be polite in town hall meetings.

It is hard to ask a question when your elected rep won’t hear it.

and jesus st jesus…well, it is so nice to hear from our more enlightened, educated rabble. Please answer all the questions so that we might also be enlightened…assmunch.

I am a chemist, UCLA grad, screw the gophers if a rational question can’t be entertained by their type. I am always appalled at how superior you dumb asses act.

I’m still amazed at how many people bought the whole thing to begin with.
Two plus two equals four,
buildings don’t implode unless they are primed to,
and There’s No Place Like Home.
Are we there yet ?

Peterson isn’t the only one afraid of a town hall meeting, so is Erik Paulsen of CD3, you should do an article about that.
btw. 9-11 Truthers come in every political stripe, because they’re right.

The evidence that 9/11 was, in fact, an inside job is overwhelming. There is not a shred of evidence to support the government story. The government’s account of the collapse of the buildings defies the laws of physics (www.ae911truth.org). It has been established that a high-tech form of thermite called nanothermite is ubiquitously present in the dust of the WTC buildings. ( scientific truthBoth nanothermite ( http://www.bentham-open.org/pages/content.php?TOCPJ/2009/00000002/00000001/7TOCPJ.SGM) They cover everything up under the mantle of “national security” and “state secrets”. The 9/11 Commission report and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) reports which came out under the Bush administration were frauds and cover-ups. Everybody now admits that the Bush administration lied about everything after 9/11, Iraq’s nonexistent WMD’s and nonexistent connections with Al Qaeda, so why not 9/11 as well? The facts speak for themselves. It is time for the people to wake up, get this national security state, this military dictatorship, off our backs and get back to being a democracy.

Hey criminals. The world knows you did 9/11, OK. It’s not just a handful of loonies that think 9/11 was an inside job. A major portion of the informed world population KNOW that it was an inside job.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when “dancing Israelis” were reported on and then suddenly vanished into the memory hole.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when a 47 story tower collapses perfectly into it’s own footprint at freefall speed.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when the eyewitnesses reported chains of explosions in the towers that do not match the official version of events.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when the greatest military power on the planet fails to respond and launch fighter jets to intercept hijacked planes.

It’s not a “conspiracy theory” when the FBI can not even produce the camera footage of a Boeing 757 hitting the Pentagon. Oh, my bad, it can’t be shown for “national security” reasons. Yeah, who’s security exactly?

And there are so many other points that anyone can easily learn by doing their own research.

Oh, I guess we should just shutup, don’t think and just believe what the mainstream corporate media monopoly tells us.

Yeah, right.

Touche on the comparison between Birthers and Truthers irrationality, ignorance and politics seem to go together. There are Ron Paul truthers but polling shows that they are overwhelmingly Democrat. And apparently all are fans of this website.

Truthers are wack jobs, I hope that Truthers are not heavily represented in Minnesota, it gave me such peace of mind when it was shown that the ignorant wingnut birthers were all from the South.

Andy: Truthers are not “heavily represented” anywhere. Truthers make up 5 percent of the U.S. population, at a maximum. They’re just a very loud minority. Also, they’re extremely dogmatic, and they aren’t very bright. All of the same could be said of the birthers as well.
