Red/Gray Chips Match Advanced Thermitic Materials Developed in US Government Labs

Berkeley, CA, April 23, 2009— A team of scientists that includes 9/11 luminaries Steven Jones, Kevin Ryan, and seven other authors from three countries announced this month the long-awaited publication of their 25-page article "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe."

Thank you everyone for supporting us in setting up our AE911Truth 10' x10' booth at the San Francisco convention of the American Institute of Architects! The booth and convention accessory fees alone amounted to over $7,000. On top of this, and because of your show of support, we are able now to create a first class highly professional display system of large graphic banners and 37" LCD monitors!

Now our need is to ensure that each of the 24,000 architects at the convention will make a conscious effort to find us at booth #2609! So we have approval to place a 1/4 page color ad (depicting a comparison of the Beijing high-rise fire with the mysterious destruction of WTC 7 — see image and click for a larger view). This ad will be placed in the prestigious Architectural Record – the publication of the American Institute of Architects. We do already have 2 gracious donors who are providing 1/2 of the $6,400 ad cost already! But we also want to send a similarly designed invitation post card to each of the 24,000 architects before the event and also as a follow-up after the event. The list cost, printing cost, and postage for this marketing effort will be over $11,400. Let's maximize the AE911Truth marketing opportunity of the year! If each of us do a little then we will move this mountain of denial in the building professional that we need to reach the most! Thanks everyone.

In an article titled, "Heated Controversy", the somewhat mainstream media web publication, Slate, looks at firefighters and their opinions of the official reports concerning the events of 9/11.

"Do other professions marshal their own expertise to poke holes in the official story? Absolutely. Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth point to the physics of the towers' collapse — its "free fall" pace, the "lateral ejection" of steel, the "mid-air pulverization of concrete" — as evidence that they could not have fallen exclusively because of the planes' impact."

A ground-breaking scientific paper confirmed this week that red-gray flakes found throughout multiple samples of WTC dust are actually unexploded fragments of nanothermite, an exotic high-tech explosive.

The samples were taken from far-separated locations in Manhattan, some as early as 10 minutes after the second tower (WTC 1) collapsed, ruling out any possible contamination from cleanup operations.

Authored by an international team of physicists, chemists, and others, the research paper was titled "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe." It was published in The Open Chemical Physics Journal, 2009, Vol. 2., and is available online for free download. The lead author is Niels H. Harrit of the Department of Chemistry, University of Copenhagen.

Gov. Gary Locke, nominee for Secretary of Commerce

NIST's Half-Admission of Yet Another 9/11 Smoking Gun

The U.S. Senate will hold a confirmation hearing this week on the nominee for Secretary of Commerce, Gov. Gary Locke. This cabinet position oversees the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST), the government agency responsible for investigating and reporting on the destruction of World Trade Center Building 7. NIST tried to avoid admitting that there was any freefall acceleration when the building came down on September 11, 2001. All the way to their draft final report on August 26, 2008, nearly seven years after the event, the NIST report's lead authors held firmly to their position that freefall did not occur.

Once NIST invited comments on its draft report, it was more or less forced to accept the indisputable explanations based on the publicly available videos proving that freefall had occurred. David Chandler, a high school physics teacher and AE911Truth researcher, provided the most compelling argument in a video seen widely on YouTube.

Mandarin Oriental Hotel fire, February 9, 2009,
during and after the fire.

With the fiery inferno of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel (MOH) in Beijing on February 9, 2009, the obvious point of comparison is with World Trade Center 7 (WTC 7) on September 11, 2001. Yes, the buildings were very similar in size, and in some ways in construction. Their heights were comparable, 522 ft. for MOH, vs. 610 ft. for WTC 7. But the differences in the magnitude of the fires and ultimate results were dramatic, in the extreme.
