      I'll explain the steel-sulfur eutectic first:

      A eutectic alloy is a mixture of a metal with another substance with a melting point below the melting point of either substance. In the case of an iron-sulfur mixture, the eutectic melting point can be very low, ~1000 C. The reason for the lower melting point is that the two mixed substances have atoms of different sizes. When the material solidifies, they disrupt each other's crystalline structures, and the resulting microstructure is less stable than pure crystals of either substance would be. In the WTC, the molten material would not be steel, it would be an iron-sulfur mixture, with a much lower melting point. I hope that helps.

      In regards to tracking airplanes, it certainly helps air-traffic controllers if the airplanes in question had working transponders. The terrorists, or whoever was controlling the airplanes, disabled the transponders. The transponders are like homing beacons on the airplanes, transmitting signals that keep everyone else aware of their location. Without them, an airplane must be tracked by radar, so the signatures of thousands of other airplanes would have to be filtered out from the radar sweep. If radar coverage is not complete, it is that much more difficult. For comparison, imagine that there is a crowd of thousands of people who appear identical, and one of them is the one you're looking for. If he is not shouting his name to you, it's difficult to distinguish him from the rest. If you are forced to close your eyes intermittently, it can get pretty difficult.

      From Popular Mechanics, referring to 9/11 commission findings
      On 9/11 there were only 14 fighter jets on alert in the contiguous 48 states. No computer network or alarm automatically alerted the North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) of missing planes. "They [civilian Air Traffic Control, or ATC] had to pick up the phone and literally dial us," says Maj. Douglas Martin, public affairs officer for NORAD. Boston Center, one of 22 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regional ATC facilities, called NORAD's Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) three times: at 8:37 am EST to inform NEADS that Flight 11 was hijacked; at 9:21 am to inform the agency, mistakenly, that Flight 11 was headed for Washington (the plane had hit the North Tower 35 minutes earlier); and at 9:41 am to (erroneously) identify Delta Air Lines Flight 1989 from Boston as a possible hijacking. The New York ATC called NEADS at 9:03 am to report that United Flight 175 had been hijacked — the same time the plane slammed into the South Tower. Within minutes of that first call from Boston Center, NEADS scrambled two F-15s from Otis Air Force Base in Falmouth, Mass., and three F-16s from Langley Air National Guard Base in Hampton, Va. None of the fighters got anywhere near the pirated planes.
      Regarding the nature of the collapse, it seems odd to simultaneously argue that the WTC towers collapsed too neatly into their footprints, like a controlled demolition, and that a great deal of material was ejected sideways(very unlike a controlled demolition). Nevertheless, the seismographic data stands. Steven Jones uses the same seismographic data to confirm the duration of collapse in his video, even though that data also strongly refutes those who claimed to hear explosions as well as the theory of explosive-induced collapse.

      It's true that thermite/thermate can cut through steel, but the mechanism is heat-transfer that melts the steel. It wouldn't produce audible explosions as it melted steel columns, would it? Furthermore, how could thermite/thermate cut all of the core columns simultaneously, since the most severely damaged ones (mainly on one side of the building) would melt through far faster? Wouldn't thermite/thermate cause the structure to topple on its side? Furthermore, what explains the bowing effect observed in the footage?

      Sorry for the long posts, but you brought up many very good points.

      Right, the lower melting point you mention is 1000 Celsius, which is 20 degrees lower than the maximum temperature for jet fuel. And open air jet fuel fires like at the WTC where certainly much less than this. So how was this molten iron produced? Where did it originally come from? Why is it seen pouring by the tons like the product of a thermate reaction?

      Seismographic data doesn't prove anything either way and this was pointed out by a 911 researcher.

      Dont confuse the twin towers with WTC7. The twin towers collapsed while exploding outwards. While WTC7 collapsed exactly like a controlled demolition.

      Indeed thermate would produce audible noise if used in the cutting columns, as in this clip a small cutter charge made from thermite cuts a thin beam it makes an explosive sound. Now amplify that noise to teh amount of thermite needed to take out a beam 100 times larger. (and thermite is an even less reactive compound than thermate.)

      1. Videos of an molten metal flowing out of the South Tower of the WTC.

      which look like a thermite reaction.

      2. Molten aluminum : ruled out - doesnt glow orange at any temperature reachable by jet fuel fire, and at melting temperature is silver in color.

      3. Independent research analysis of pieces of molten iron taken from the WTC wreckage (pg 32) are found to have nearly exact features as thermate.

      4. Newer scientific research of WTC dust samples shows just as exact a match of chemical signatures, not to mention a size of microscopic particle of molten iron not expected from a gravity driven collapse, nor expected to be so prevalent in the dust given some one-in-a-million spontaneous reaction like thermate from the exact combination of sulfur, powdered iron oxide, and fine powdered aluminum.

      "The spheres from the thermite reaction...contain strong peaks for aluminum and iron, and for “thermate”; sulfur is also prominent. (Note that the iron-aluminum-sulfur spheres from MacKinlay’s apartment contained very low calcium, so the sulfur is evidently not from gypsum, a common building material)." - Steven Jones

      Great post, by the way. It's great to see the physical evidence on the other side.

      Going point by point, the heat reached by combustibles in the rubble pile had a good possibility of reaching 1000 C, given that NIST determined that a simple couch set on fire could produce temperatures as high as 1100 C. Temperatures of about 1800 C were observed in the towers for the first ten minutes, and about 1000 C after that until they collapsed. Factoring the oxidation of the heated steel and the insular effect of the debris, it is well within possibility to see molten sulfidated iron in the rubble. In the time between impact and collapse, though, I'm not sure if there was much sulfidated iron at all. This leads us to the molten material seen flowing out of the towers.

      The NIST report suggests that the flow may be aluminum mixed with organics and glass, but doesn't actually give an answer in the affirmative. Aluminum, of course, is silver when molten and doesn't glow, whereas iron does glow orange, as observed, but aluminum does have a silvery color when it cools, as the liquid seems to. The color observed could be due to a small flow of aluminum mixed with a great deal of other very hot materials, all on fire. Glass, for example, glows orange when hot. As much as the next person, though, I would like to see an experiment performed on this by an independent scientific group, just to be sure. That is not to say that thermite isn't also a guess as to the identity of the flow.

      If thermite was being used to cut supports, why is molten iron flowing from the side of the building at such a rate, and at a single point on the structure? One presumes that the core columns would be the target of such a large amount of thermite/thermate products, or that multiple flows of iron would be observed around the structure, clearly attacking the outside support structure.

      The point about the seismic evidence is a good one, but ultimately it comes down to the researcher's word against the seismologists who recorded the data. They claimed any device designed to defeat the structure's columns would cause those same forces to be transmitted to the ground via the columns, causing a telltale spike. The video demonstrating a thermite cutting tool also seems to suggest that the size of the devices in the building would need to be truly massive to have the desired effect, which puts the explosive theory further in doubt.

      In the case of WTC7 my earlier points, that the structure's design made it vulnerable to just the sort of progressive collapse that was observed, still stand.

      Regarding the dust, I've read that the sphericles observed in the WTC dust can be explained by the iron and sulfur content of the buildings themselves, present in many materials that made up the structures, without resorting to thermite reactions. Concrete, for example, could easily contain such particles. In order that the sphericles be good evidence, it must be shown that their concentration was far too high to be explained by the structural materials, but as far as I can tell thermite is argued based on their mere existence.

      Good points, though, as far as they go, and the flow of molten material is, of course, interesting in its own right, but I don't think the evidence points to either thermite or conventional explosives.

      R.D.735 no matter how hard you try. You cant make steel buildings fall over. When you have eyes to see. You can watch it explode. The simplicity of the fact wipes away all your dogma and complexity. You should be in shame right now. Governments lie but laws of physics do not lie.

      I must agree with you, Mystic7, at least in part. The laws of physics do not lie. It is humans who have a penchant for deceit, deceiving themselves and others, both intentionally and unintentionally, by errors of logic or simple ignorance. It is science that provides a method by which human deceptions can be revealed.

      That is pretty funny. The small pathetic close up piece of wreckage is not even from the same plane.

      Still no-one can explain this....


      1. The failure of the FAA and Military's standard operating procedures to intercept off-course or out of contact aircraft.
      2. The multiple wargames happening on 9/11
      3. The unexplained collapse of WTC building 7, and the demoltion-like collapse of the towers themselves. Larry Silverstein, the lease-holder of WTC 7, admits it was "pulled."
      4. The foreign warnings received by our government/intelligence agencies prior to 9/11
      5. The fact that several of the supposed hijackers have turned up alive
      6. The failure of the 9/11 Commission to address certain questions, and the suspect members of this commission.
      7. Insider trading on put options prior to 9/11. The SEC refused to track the trades. The story was killed in the US media.
      8. The historical precedents of government deceptions and "false-flag operations," including Operation Northwoods.

      1. The Mastermind, the Hijackers and the Planes
      2. The Twin Towers
      3. The Pentagon

      Demolition Waves clearly visible in "collapse".

      WTC7

      We also know that Sibel Edmonds and at least a dozen other FBI whistleblowers have indicated that the FBI has been infiltrated by criminal elements who aided the 9/11 terrorists. Sibel Edmonds who claims to have documented evidence of this fact has been gagged by the highest authority - The Attorney General's Office, even after her claims were substantiated by a preliminary by the Justice Department. Since that time gags orders have been repeatedly placed on Edmonds, and even the U.S. Congress form hearing her testimony. What in the world are they hiding? Why is Congress allowing Executive Privilege to override congressional oversight? Ill outline the legal arguments if you cant see them.

      This appeal to executive privilege has also been used in the NSA spying scandal to exempt testimony and evidence. It has also been used in the Riggs Bank case where Bush's uncle was found to have allowed money laundering to two Saudi terrorists responsible for the 9/11 hijackings. Do you think it is suspicious that the brother of the President (who is already under fire for not going after the Saudi source of funding for the 9./11 terrorists), is now found guilty of laundering money to the 9/11 terrorists?

      There are hundreds of coincidences that nearly prove a conspiracy. They simply need more investigation before a full chronological picture of the events can emerge.

      Demolition waves are clearly visible, exploding before the top mass can pulverize it.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri9Uz1Wa-Xc

      WTC7 displays all the characteristics of controlled demolition, not to mention features which can only be explained by it.
      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFFkbo3o0NM

      Scientists and Academics have written articles claiming to prove the controlled demolition theory, and have not been refuted.
      http://www.journalof911studies.com/v...Demolition.pdf

      Its a simple fact that government officials have tried to cover up evidence, like the molten metal.
      http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...03712325092501

      And I havnt seen one person in any forum discussing this topic even attempt to refute any of the facts and arguments provided by over a hundred of Architects and Engineers.

      I of course am through debating, at least for a while, but I want to help you find the past comments and links you overlooked. Here, I hope this helps you find what you are asking for since it is what you are asking for.

      And how did you say hijackings were faked and the real airplanes were hidden? I'm just curious.

      Besides, I was talking about 9/11 truth, not my membership in the Illuminati. I can't believe how ungrateful you are that I let you down from the "joke" (so you almost think because I am letting you for now) because my suggestions of Illuminati membership in the Illuminati thread were scaring the Bejesus out of you, as you strongly indicated in our chat room conversation. "Who are you? Who the Hell are you? All joking aside, tell me who you are and who you work for! Was Mark joking?" You got so wigged out that I led you to believe it was all a joke. Now show appreciation for that, or I am going to slowly start showing you just how far down the rabbit hole goes.
      You are dreaming right now.

      You forgot to thank me for letting you believe that. Seek Kansas. You were not made to enter Oz.

      Of course, all of this does little to address real differences between the evidence used to prove the conspiracy and the evidence used to refute it. If we don't stick to the topic, everyone is just spitting into the wind.

      Let's leave the Illuminati for the Illuminati thread, and leave the long lists of links for those who have the time to sift through them for the small item of information necessary to make a point. That is debate by proxy.

      Sorry. You know how good Universal Mind is at distracting me.

      The reason why I provide the links is for those that want to research it. Then they can enter the debate if they wish in an informed manner. It also refutes a lot of stuff that magazines like popular mechanics and other debunking sites listed by UM make up.

      R.D.735 you talked a lot about chemicals. But I don't think you explained exactly how steel can melt or weaken even, and give way, just from jetfuel in 1 hour and collapse the building. That to me just does not make sense and it's never happened in history to any building. Fire never has collapsed a high rise building. And I certainly don't think these two towers are made especially weak. I think the innovations by the engineers actually made them stronger than normal at the time.
