The circumstanial [sic] part being the fact that the wreckage was rushed away and melted so quickly without proper investigation, why?

The "fact"?

Do you - does anyone - have any credible documentation backing the assertion that WTC debris was "rushed away" and "melted quickly"? I've seen lots of allegations regarding this claim, but nothing substantive, either taking the form of news articles, reports, etc.

Links, anyone? (Preferably not to editorials.)

Rock_nj > I have no reason to think that planes were not flown into the WTC

Agreed. In fact, I don't believe the bin Laden/terrorist story could have "stuck" without the use of airplanes. That was the whole point of 9-11 -- to incriminate Islamic "terrorists" in a dastardly act -- and which all could see (or imagine they could). Thus I would argue there was no point in not using airplanes and merely pretending that they were used.

> I can reasonably entertain the building explosives conspiracy

There is a large amount of evidence, real and circumstantial, as well as informed opinion, which supports it. So, even if one is reluctant to believe it, it's hard not to give it serious thought. In fact, it is the strong evidence in favor of a controlled demolition which gives the lie to the notion that the buildings were brought down solely by the aircraft.

Re: There's overwhelming evidence that planes hit the WTC on 9/11/01.

"Overwhelming"?! A couple of footages --all shot from a point north of the WTC precincts-- don't make up "overwhelming evidence".... Anyway, did you notice that mass murderer Timothy McVeigh was executed on 611? Shake the digits a little bit and... ooops: it turns into 911!

Remarks by President Bush on McVeigh Execution

THE PRESIDENT:
This morning, the United States of America carried out the severest sentence for the gravest of crimes. The victims of the Oklahoma City bombing have been given not vengeance, but justice. And one young man met the fate he chose for himself six years ago.

For the survivors of the crime and for the families of the dead, the pain goes on. Final punishment of the guilty cannot alone bring peace to the innocent. It cannot recover the loss or balance the scales, and it is not meant to do so. Today, every living person who was hurt by the evil done in Oklahoma City can rest in the knowledge that there has been a reckoning. At every point, from the morning of April 19, 1995 to this hour, we have seen the good that overcomes evil.

We saw it in the rescuers who saved and suffered with the victims. We have seen it in a community that has grieved and held close the memory of the lost. We have seen it in the work of detectives, marshal, and police. And we've seen it in the courts. Due process ruled. The case was proved. The verdict was calmly reached. And the rights of the accused were protected and observed to the full and to the end.

Under the laws of our country, the matter is concluded. Life and history bring tragedies, and often they cannot be explained. But they can be redeemed. They are redeemed by dispensing justice, though eternal justice is not ours to deliver. By remembering those who grieve, including Timothy McVeigh's mother, father and sisters, and by trusting in purposes greater than our own, may God in his mercy grant peace to all; to the lives that were taken six years ago, to the lives that go on, and to the life that ended today.
