Edward Snowden:I'm leaking information tomorrow to reporters about the truth behind who really did WTC 7.

Wow.I....

 

[Revoltingest]

Conspiracy theorists everywhere are now reaching for tissues to clean themselves up!

 

[Sunstone]

Tomorrow promises to be an interesting day.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Did not know WTC7 was a verb

Tomorrow will determine my opinion on the guy: If he shows his work, I'll like his math. If he just says claims, I'll probably not like it so much.

 

[LuisDantas]

So it does. I wonder what he will say.

Thats a crack up right there

 

[I.S.L.A.M617]

Snowden's such an attention whore... Somebody's gonna kill him

 

[InformedIgnorance]

Assuming of course it is truly him who tweeted it in the first place.

You got that right.:yes:

It's beginning to look like it might not have been.

One generally does not give advance notice to people who are able to (and may well desire to) kill you that you intend to publicly release information that a not insignificant number believe might harm them (particularly given there is little to suggest that he would have had direct access to such information were it to exist). Looks like little more than an effort to make him look like an idiot. (seriously tw** is censored?)

Maybe he's a martyr.

 

[I.S.L.A.M617]

Maybe he's a martyr.

Or an attention whore. I think Snowden's main goal was to be famous; looked at as some sort of Robin Hood figure that champions the common folk.

Could you please say what WTC 7 is, then post it's abbreviation in brackets on it's first occurrence in a thread?

I'm going to guess that it is World Trade Centre, but still consider it good practice to explain such abbreviation.

World Trade Center building no 7 was a smaller building that was next to the Twin Towers that collapsed although a plane didn't hit it.

In my personal opinion, it's pretty obvious that the planes didn't cause any of the buildings to fall. A plane crash causing a pancake demolition style collapse is physically impossible.

I don't think that's true. I've read reports that do say it is possible.

Not just the crash itself but a combination of other factors involved. People like to say that the fire wouldn't be enough to melt steel (which is true), but it sure would be enough to put it under stress. and the way the towers were built, at least looking at their blueprints, a pancake style falling is what would make the most sense.

But I'm not an architect (sp), so I can't say that with 100% confidence.

If you look at the blueprints, you'll see there are multiple vertical support beams coming out of the foundations of the buildings. The vertical support beams' purpose is to prevent individual floors from falling on each other. The design is to prevent exactly what happened. If the metal was put under stress rather than cut clean at an angle that would allow a pancake collapse, the buildings would have fallen sideways and damaged nearby structures. This was not at all the case.

I have a feeling a structural engineer rather than an architect would be the person with the most relevant qualification
