Hey 9/11 Truthers! Is this a conspiracy too?

The Delft University of Technology, Architecture School collapsed in a pancake reaction to a fire. Let me repeat that .... the School Of Architecture. I'm highly doubtful they built a deficient building for themselves. Steel frame high rise building collapses and is utterly destroyed by a fire begun by a shorted out coffee pot.

It wasn't bombs, renegade black-ops, secret demolition, cruise missiles or remotely controlled fake 737s that brought down the architecture school's steel frame building. It was fire that weakened the interior steel beam structure to the point that the weight and mass from above finally collapsed under the weight. Video of the moment is identical to the kind of collapse and dust/debris cloud witnessed on 9/11 at the World Trade Center.

It's a powerful slap in the chops to 9/11 Truthers.

Like to hear what Rosie O'Donut has to say about this.

[mnehring]

The whole “no steel structure building ever collapsed by fire” line just shows how stupid they were. I can’t remember who it was, but we have one FReeper who was a fire investigator and posted links to dozens upon dozens of similar structured buildings collapsing in a fire, including one church where you can see the metal rafters twisted and warped by the heat of the fire- a regular structure fire mind you, nothing as dramatic as the jet fuel fire at the twin towers.

There’s no doubt that people WANT to believe stuff like that.

It makes them feel smart & superior.

The alex jones websites tap into that. It’s quite similar to the control methods used at the universities - “if you believe us, you’re smart, if you don’t, you’re dumb”. Everyone wants others to think they’re smart.

There was also an article in Popular Mechanics back in 2007 that disputed many of the 9/11 Truthers claims, including the structural component...

[jazusamo]

Yes, the stupidity of the truthers was laughable. Anyone who knows anything about the fire service, structural integrity or properties of steel knew right away what took place. I’ve seen very large steel roof beams twisted like pretzels after a major fire, retired from fire service.

Honestly, what is a “truther?” The opposite of a “liar?” (which it should be).

[Slings and Arrows]

A “Truther” is someone who believes that 9/11 was caused by a) George W. Bush, b) the Mossad, or c) [Insert your favorite bogeyman here], and NOT by Arabs flying hijacked airplanes. They are not well people.

[Kartographer]

If the Delft University fire wasn't a conspiracy then explain this picture!!!

Looks like a 'teabagger' or maybe Amish if you ask me!

[Finalapproach29er]

There was asbestos covering the metal, but that was taken off which then made the steel vulnerable.

Horrible irony. 3000 dead because they thought the asbestos was too great a risk.

Very sad.

[jazusamo]

They are not well people

LOL! Right on.

They're nutjob conspiracy theorists that belong in a padded room. :)

[jazusamo]

Heh Heh Heh

Could be and won’t argue with that. :-)

[Hardraade]

In a moment there will be a bunch of arabs and leftists along to tell you that prior to the fire, Jews were observed bearing coffee pots to all four cornes of the building, as well as to all the elevators.

[Slings and Arrows]

When does Lootie show up?

[Allegra]

Alex Jones, pick up the white courtesy phone, please. Alex Jones...

[griswold3]

what

[wolfcreek]

IMO, the same conditions of open borders, not knowing whose coming and going and special treatment for certain groups will make 9-11 look like a birthday party.

Why would anyone not think our government was complicit? They haven't changed much and we're still in peril.

[jazusamo]

LOL! I’d bet Alex could whip up an answer for this in less than a minute.

[LoneRangerMassachusetts]

where you can see the metal rafters twisted and warped by the heat of the fire- a regular structure fire mind you,

The heat does not twist or warp the steel. It's the stress from gravity on the weight of the structure and what it carries that does that. The heat simply reduces the stress the steel can carry.

"Truther." Gotta be a liberal term - another Orwellian example of a word that means the opposite of how it's used. Other examples:

"Liberals" - they're actually tyrants

"Progressives" - they digress into spiritual and political darkness

“Intellectual elite” – they’re the vanguard of irrational beliefs having nothing to do intelligent reason or truth.

“Stimulus” – Phony term that does not stimulate anything expect raising taxes which is its real purpose.

“The People” – The government.

I’m sure someone has a whole litany of ex-Soviet Communist terms used to “justify” oppression and death of its citizens.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

It’s a waste to try and argue with or educate a “911 Truther-Liar”. To me, they are in the same societal gutter as Pedophiles; sick, dangerous, perverse, paranoid, narcissistic, obtuse, and delusional. They should not be talked to - only talked “about” and marginalised for the destructive losers and cowards that they are. Alex Jones is damn lucky I was not around when he got in Michelle Malkin’s face here just blocks from where I worked in 2008...damn lucky.
