A few key points raised in the paper:

? The three buildings collapsed nearly symmetrically, falling
down into their footprints, a phenomenon associated with "controlled
demolition" ? and even then it's very difficult, he says. "Why would
terrorists undertake straight-down collapses of WTC-7 and the Towers
when 'toppling over' falls would require much less work and would do
much more damage in downtown Manhattan?" Jones asks. "And where would
they obtain the necessary skills and access to the buildings for a
symmetrical implosion anyway? The 'symmetry data' emphasized here,
along with other data, provide strong evidence for an 'inside' job."

? No steel-frame building, before or after the WTC buildings,
has ever collapsed due to fire. But explosives can effectively sever
steel columns, he says.

? WTC 7, which was not hit by hijacked planes, collapsed in 6.6
seconds, just .6 of a second longer than it would take an object
dropped from the roof to hit the ground. "Where is the delay that must
be expected due to conservation of momentum, one of the foundational
laws of physics?" he asks. "That is, as upper-falling floors strike
lower floors ? and intact steel support columns ? the fall must be
significantly impeded by the impacted mass. . . . How do the upper
floors fall so quickly, then, and still conserve momentum in the
collapsing buildings?" The paradox, he says, "is easily resolved by
the explosive demolition hypothesis, whereby explosives quickly
removed lower-floor material, including steel support columns, and
allow near free-fall-speed collapses." These observations were not
analyzed by FEMA, NIST nor the 9/11 Commission, he says.

? With non-explosive-caused collapse there would typically be a
piling up of shattering concrete. But most of the material in the
towers was converted to flour-like powder while the buildings were
falling, he says. "How can we understand this strange behavior,
without explosives? Remarkable, amazing ? and demanding scrutiny since
the U.S. government-funded reports failed to analyze this phenomenon."

? Horizontal puffs of smoke, known as squibs, were observed
proceeding up the side the building, a phenomenon common when
pre-positioned explosives are used to demolish buildings, he says.

? Steel supports were "partly evaporated," but it would require
temperatures near 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit to evaporate steel ? and
neither office materials nor diesel fuel can generate temperatures
that hot. Fires caused by jet fuel from the hijacked planes lasted at
most a few minutes, and office material fires would burn out within
about 20 minutes in any given location, he says.

? Molten metal found in the debris of the World Trade Center
may have been the result of a high-temperature reaction of a commonly
used explosive such as thermite, he says. Buildings not felled by
explosives "have insufficient directed energy to result in melting of
large quantities of metal," Jones says.

? Multiple loud explosions in rapid sequence were reported by
numerous observers in and near the towers, and these explosions
occurred far below the region where the planes struck, he says.

Wow! Now you're parroting conspiracy theory bullshit that has already been
long ago debunked?! LOL You're a hoot, Hanky!

Someone is running seriously short on material. Guess he forgot to pay
his Commondreams.org subscription.

Bush was actually flying all 3 planes, but parachuted out at the last
second. That was after he was beamed aboard each plane midflight.
Cheney got him the the technology from area 51. The man seen reading to
the children was a clone. The radio and cell-phone recordings were
faked by the Mossad. The relatives contacted by the folks on the Penn
flight were actually reading from scripts provided by MI-6, and were
also clones made by Haliburton.

That tinfoil hat fitting a bit tight, hanky?

So Hanky now has a delema...."Do I (as a left-wing-nut) believe the
Right-wing religious nut?

His answer will be; "Sure! As long as it's agaist Bush!"
