Ahmadinejad: Twin Towers Couldn't Have Been Toppled By Two Planes

WASINGTON -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that as an engineer he's sure the twin towers were not brought down by jetliners.

Ahmadinejad, in an interview with The Associated Press, says it would have been impossible for two jetliners to bring down the towers simply by hitting them. he says some kind of planned explosion must have taken place.

Ahmadinejad stopped short of saying the United States staged the disaster 10 years ago. But he says there are questions the world should resolve, and noted there are doubters in the United States as well.

Ahmadinejad was denied his request last year to visit the site of the World Trade Center collapse. He says he's not making another attempt this year. He's in New York City for the U.N. General Assembly.

He has to be correct. It never happened and the moon landing was a hollowed affair. Except this guy was born on the moon.

What strikes me is that 10 years later, not ONE person who was involved in "setting up" the so called conspiracy and I think most would agree that you would need more than a handful of people to carry this out, has come out of the woodwork.
If it was a set up for pretext to war, I think the US could have justified war with a less spectacular incident. There are many things we don't, and never will understand. Al-qaida seems to think they did it. They say Ahmadinejerk is just jealous he cant inflict the same damage.

Why were no fighter planes sent up ??

Because planes just don't become airborne within a minute.

Who cares about three rather mysteriously mostly vacant office buildings that usually had tens of thousands of people in them? The Pentagon is probably the most secured building in the country yet not even 1 video of what happened in a vacant area there or even videos from around the area have ever been released from those thousands of operating cameras. No wreckage from an airliner was present in any of the post explosion scenes either. Near Shanksville, Pa. there was an explosion creating a hole in the ground and again no wreckage although some unidentified parts were reported scattered miles from that scene. Wish wiki-leaks would get a hold of that info and post it since our government won't.... ever.

Who cares about your fake claims?

Hint: "The Pentagon is probably the most secured building in the country" Yes, internally and at all entrances, not secure ona a concrete wall with no doors. oops.

"even videos from around the area have ever been released from those thousands of operating cameras" I heard it was millions.

"again no wreckage although some unidentifi­ed parts were reported scattered miles from that scene" Not a single piece? I guess that dumpster full of aircraft parts never made it to any of your CT websites. Why?

Ahmadinejad does not appear to be very smart for an engineer, otherwise he would have known for a long time that the twin towers were not supposed to suddenly disintegrate in 10 to 15 seconds an hour or two after some aircraft impact.

Alas, many of our commenters appear to know even less, By watching too much Fox and PBS, theyy missed the elementary 9/11 class, which cleverly demonstrates the 9/11 conspiracy by contradiction and the level of middle school: www.911babystep.com.

Your time would be so much better spent by looking up the Rachel Maddow show from (I think) Thursday on this year's and preceding "Annual Mahmoud Walk-Out Day." You'll feel much better.

C'mon, folks, we aren't going to play back the twin towers conspiracy theory, are we? Particularly allowing ourselves to be yanked by some psychotic who, for inexplicable reasons, is allowed to run a future nuclear power?

I really think we have more pressing issues.

inside job. reason to start war. MIC makes money. middle class loses money. usa hallowed out. no end in sight for war since it is against an abstract enemy: "the war on terrorism". the westernized ruling class wins. THe people of USA, germany, france, england, italy, iraq, iran, pak, afgh, etc, all lose.

For all of you that still swallow the fractured fairy tale that passes for an explanation of the 9-11 events by the government, and especially for those who insist on seeing scholarly proof of evidence that shatters the status quo, here is something that cannot be ignored or refuted by the paid shills or anyone else.

http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/pdf/nyregion/20050812_WTC_GRAPHIC/9110048.PDF

and:

http://beforeitsnews.com/story/427/429/Witnesses_Saw_People_Vaporized_on_9_11.html

and, the only theory that holds water considering the material above:

http://wtcdemolition.blogspot.com/2007/05/wtc-nuke-thesis-from-anonymous.html

If you read the information above and can come up with any rational scenario by which the vast amounts of energy that were needed to cause the effects seen OTHER than as described, please be the first to do so since 9-11. No one, no scientist, not NIST stooge, not one authority in the world has ever satisfactorily explained how GRAVITY could cause massive and eruptive behavior as observed.

I know the reailty is unsettling, shocking and highly disturbing, but better to find out now and be aware instead of one day being really shaken to the core when not prepared. it is a sickening feeling to realize that sophisticated military only ( supposedly ) weapons would be used along with conventional means to accomplish the utter destruction of ALL WTC properties in NY that day.

Ms Ondrovic’s account is truly ‘bizarre’, and a testament to the fact that there were forces at play on 9/11 that modern technology — indeed, mainstream science -- simply cannot explain. Please read the attached PDF doc carefully. It’s one a helluva wake-up call.
Then there’s this RESCUER who saw people engulfed in fire , fireball and disintegrating.” Connie just dug up the following note from this other chap connie knows who’d interviewed another woman on to her, and is checking to see if I may get in touch with him directly.

"Red Cross worker ; I have her report in my files. She told me she was sent to NYC by the Red Cross to help survivors of the WTC. She said the thing that most stuck out in her mind after interviewing dozens of people was the number that told her of looking back and seeing people engulfed in some sort of fireball and disintegrating.
Obviously, a collapsing building cannot produce such an effect. But a mini-nuke shaped charge placed in the basement to blow out the central core columns could. A small nuclear device could also explain the pyroplasmic cloud seen above the WTC, the disintegration and warping of heavy steel beams and the pulverization of so much concrete.

plausable theory other than the fact that there's no fallout. There was no EMP and even a pony nuke would have taken out both towers at once. Aside from those pesky facts it fits.

[CannabisRex]

02:17 PM on 09/26/2011

NO EMP? you obviously failed to even read the material in the links. There is vast proof of EMP effects, and small yield nukes would not exceed what was desired and it is proven that nukes have been made for demolition purposes long ago. you have done ZERO research, know nothing about " fallout ' or have even read the testimony of the first responders that describe EMP effects in detail.

care to go back and start over or just smugly assume that you know all there is to know about the subject?

Netanyahu has his moments of brilliance. I do not know if he writes everything he says but his ability in english, not surprising since he trained at MIT and Harvard, is sometimes brilliant. He said this to the UN assembly yesterday speaking about his visit to the Twin Towers site:

“As I was going there, one thing echoed in my mind: the outrageous words of the president of Iran on this podium yesterday. He implied that 9/11 was an American conspiracy. Some of you left this hall. All of you should have.”

That is moral authority. That is what an ally of the United States has the guts to get up and say to the entire world.

I understand that this terrorist is here to attend the UN meeting but why do we need to pay attention to him and give interviews and listen to his anti American views.
Since they believe we created 9/11 a good time for a plane to hit a building would have been last week we could have gotten all the terrorist at once. Got some of our backbone back. It is shameful to have other countries continue to go against us and know that we will not do anything because they know our president is weak he is putting us in danger everyday 2012 cannot come fast enough for me and I say anybody but Obama. Anyone that cares about our country and the people not just the people that contribute to his campaign.
They burn our flag, the hate us, they think of way to attack and kill us and we give them billions of dollars.They consonantly try to perfect their terror plots. They are spreading to other countries helping others expand their terror groups and they hate US. by giving them money we are helping to fund the terror.
We have problems in our own country and I think that the super committee should start with foreign aid to countries that hate us and the payment of benefits to the all the illegals before they touch the American programs not create more reason for the illegals to come and stay.
