On 9/11, even US Marshals said there were bombs in the buildings
http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html/nyregion/20050812_WTC_GRAPHIC/met_WTC_histories_01.html
see Hoppey, Timothy-- firefighter, page 13:

"But a cop started screaming, "The north tower is leaning."* We again started running. That came down a couple minutes after that. As I said, I think we were on Vesey Street at that point, but I’m not really sure.

After that it was kind of pandemonium. The U.S. marshals were saying a third plane was coming in. They said there were bombs in all the buildings around there."


*this is after the south tower collapsed

2. I guess someone needs to count up how many NYFD and NYPD
said there were explosives in the buildings.

But I think it is incredible that even federal agents were saying there were bombs.

And it is amazing how this has been covered up. If they could cover this up, what else are they covering up?

3. There were hundreds of witnesses who stated they witnessed explosions
Even several reporters at the site; I've posted several before-
here are 2 more video statements:

CBS reporter refers to a secondary exploson in the South Tower before its collapse. The reporter's exact words were "some kind of secondary follow-up explosion."

CBS reporter describes explosions near the top of the North Tower as it collapses

4. NBC: FDNY Chief of Safety Reported Bombs Within the Towers
NBC: FDNY Chief of Safety Reported Bombs Within the Towers
Albert Turi, the Chief of Safety for the New York City Fire Department

And as my eyes traveled up the building, and I was looking at the south tower, somewhere about halfway up, my initial reaction was there was a secondary explosion, and the entire floor area, a ring right around the building blew out. And as my eyes traveled further up the building, I realized that this building was collapsing and I turned around and most everybody was ahead of me running for the garage,

7. So, a bunch of small bombs to weaken certain parts of the buildings,
Edited on Sat Oct-15-05 06:06 PM by Old and In the Way
and when the big explosion is in the basements happened, the drop was assured? I find that huge spike on both buildings right before the collapse to be the smoking gun...I've yet to see them explained in any logical way.

11. Flight 93 was unaccounted for, so maybe they were thinking
of that-- or it was just a wild rumor. Or there was another hijacked plane that got deleted from the official story.

It's hard to say.
