Help Examine 9/11 Material Never Seen Before.
Update: Another provocative 9/11 video that should, at the very least, raise questions about what really happened on that tragic day.
For as much hardship as we the people have endured for the actions of a very few entitled and golden-spooned few; it's amazing that we, the predestined paupers are not burning down the house for answers that actually make sense.
And, for those of us who do question why there is only one ounce of real gold for every 100 ounces sold on paper; the inconsistencies, weird coincidences, suspicious activity (suspicious trading of Put Option Contracts on American and United Airlines before 9/11) regarding 9/11; the endless corporate scandals; the financial crisis of 2008; the extension of Bush tax-cuts for the richest Americans at a time when the disparity between the wealthy and middle-class is higher than it's ever been; the vanishing middle class; and the immunity (stealing America's jobs, retirement, wealth...war crimes) granted to the entitled, golden-spooned few, we receive half-assed answers...that is, if we get any answers at all.
The International Center for 9/11 Studies' - founded in 2008 by Director James Gourley - efforts to encourage the release of relevant information regarding the events that took place on 9/11, from government agencies, including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), under the Freedom of Information Act has manifested results. They have secured the release of tens of thousands of photographs, and hundreds of hours of video footage, from the NIST.
They are trying to get this data in the hands of interested researchers, but they need the community's help to examine this material, much of which has not been seen before.
The Center filed a FOIA Request with NIST on January 26, 2009, seeking production of “all of the photographs and videos collected, reviewed, cited or in any other way used by NIST during its investigation of the World Trade Center building collapses.” Following several unsuccessful attempts to get NIST to even acknowledge receipt of the Request, the Center was forced to file a lawsuit on May 28, 2009. Shortly after the lawsuit was filed, the Request was assigned a reference number, and NIST began periodically releasing batches of responsive records. To date, the Center has received over 300 DVDs and several external hard disk drives that contain responsive records - more than 3 terabytes of data so far – and NIST has indicated that additional records will be released in the future.The following videos are just a couple examples of the video footage and photographs used by the (NIST) for its investigation of the collapse of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.
We are currently looking at the best ways to distribute these materials to interested researchers and journalists around the world. It has taken NIST more than 8 months so far to produce a partial archive of photographs and videos in their possession, but we hope to be more efficient in our efforts. Because of the huge volume of data, we are working on a wiki-style website to facilitate review and discussion of any interesting items that are discovered by researchers.
Fox News actually examines the collapse of WTC bldg 7
The video below shows two firefighters who had just escaped from one of the Twin Towers discussing how secondary explosions inside the building caused the lobby to collapse.
The video below is raw footage from a news outlet of the South Tower exploding. Explosions can be seen ahead of the collapse front. The newscaster even calls it a “huge explosion.”
Below is a video recorded after the collapse of the Twin Towers was released, where Michael Hess, the Corporation Counsel for NYC, can be seen calling for help from the 8th floor of WTC Building 7. This footage further corroborates the testimony of Barry Jennings, the former Deputy Emergency Manager of the New York City Housing Authority, who reported that he and Hess were trapped on the 8th floor after an explosion inside the building destroyed the stairwell beneath them. Barry Jennings died two days before the release of the NIST Final Report on the collapse of WTC7. Despite the significance of Jennings' position with NYC on 9/11 and his controversial eyewitness testimony regarding the collapse of WTC7, the media has not investigated or reported on his death, nor reported on his statements.
As Plato once said, “The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.” It's not the evil men who are the problem; it's the good men - who far outnumber those who are dangerous - "who can always be brought to the bidding of their leaders."

Although, I'm not proud of the fact that it took me 9 years to open my eyes, the following post, from 9/12/10, marks the first day I started to really question 9/11.
I dismissed the 9/11 truther's contention that a lack of plane parts and a lack of damage to the Pentagon building and surrounding area proved that a 757 never struck the Pentagon.
However, after watching National Security Alert (video above), which incorporates evidence that Craig Ranke and Aldo Marquis - part of the 2006 Citizen Investigation Team - gathered together that clearly establishes that the plane that was seen flying low over Arlington on 9/11 did not hit the Pentagon and discredits the directional approach and path of the aircraft claimed by the official report, along with lots of other evidence, I've reconsidered.
Using the reported speed and other values from the released 2006 NTSB alleged black box data, Pilots for 9/11 Truth calculated the g-force required for the pilot to descend to the levels of the light poles and then pull up instantaneously to enter the building low and level enough as required by the physical damage would indicate. They found it aeronautically impossible for this aircraft to have pulled out of that dive instantaneously and be level with the lawn. It gets even worse when factoring in the NTSB reported altitude of 699 feet above sea level.
Nevertheless, a few people saw the plane fly away who did not see it approach. One man ran out as soon as he heard the explosion and that's when he saw the plane fly away. Other witnesses were recorded by the Center for Military History soon after 9/11/2001 as saying that a bomb went off and that a jet kept on going. And then there is Lloyde (above) the taxi -driver...well, you just have to watch.

Pilots for 9/11 Truth is an organization of aviation professionals and pilots throughout the globe who have gathered together for one purpose. We are committed to seeking the truth surrounding the events of the 11th of September 2001. Our main focus concentrates on the four flights, maneuvers performed and the reported pilots. We do not offer theory or point blame at this point in time. However, we are focused on determining the truth of that fateful day based on solid data and facts -- since 9/11/2001 is the catalyst for many of the events shaping our world today -- and the United States Government doesn't seem to be very forthcoming with answers or facts.
