Inside Edition and Popular Mechanics Attacks Rosie
Rosie O'Donnell has triggered a firestorm after spreading yet another theory about 9/11.
Rosie is claiming that World Trade Center 7 was deliberately demolished.
On Thursday's "The View," Rosie said, "It defies physics for the WTC 7, which collapsed in on itself -it's impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved."
Rosie issued a challenge to "Look at the films," and "get a demolition expert."
What Rosie and other conspiracy theorists don't say is that building 7, since rebuilt, suffered a 10-story gash from huge columns which fell from the twin towers. It was also weakened byfires that burned for 10 hours.
James Meigs, editor in chief of "Popular Mechanics," led a team of experts who wrote a book debunking 9/11 conspiracy theories.
Meigs said as much as 25% of the building was scooped out by the falling debris. He added, "There were intense fires that burned inside the building that weakend the steel frame. Rosie O'Donnell said this was the first time in history fire melted steel, but fire doesn't have to melt steel to weaken it enough to fail."
INSIDE EDTION cameras caught the tragic last moments as the 47-story building came down on 9/11, about nine hours after the planes struck the twin towers.
The building is seen falling in on itself, and it seems to follow the classic pattern of a controlled demolition.
But Meigs says that it's no conspiracy. "You don't need to go into fanciful explanations of bombs and mysterious things. That building fell because of the attacks if 9/11."
Among the tenants of building seven were several federal agencies including the CIA. That has helped fuel paranoid conspiracy theories.

melted steel
so there were no molten metal in the rubble of building seven? thats some great lying.
They call it "Rosies conspiracy" as if she was the first person to notice building 7.
This is severe damage control. And its also more great exposure!

that picture is from this guy's website... http://www.amanzafar.com/
here are his pics from 9/11.
http://www.amanzafar.com/WTC/index.shtm
i contacted him, and he said that the negatives were destroyed, so that's the best scan we have of the pic.
From his website:
Five years since the attacks. A lot of people have visited this site and I have received a lot of E-mails from everyone thanking me for sharing the photographs. I have just got a new scanner so I decided to scan the picture at a higher resolution from the 5x7 prints that I had. The pictures below are thumbnails.
The pictures were taken from my apartment in Jersey. I did not see the two planes hit, but started to take pictures about 3-4 mins after the second one hit.
If you have any comments, please feel free to E-mail me on amanzafar@amanzafar.com
Please also note all these pictures are taken on 35mm film and are copyright of Aman Zafar (i.e. ME!!!!).
ALL PICS ARE SCANNED AS IS. NO SPECIAL EFFECTS HAVE BEEN USED. I DID NOT EVEN SHARPEN THEM.
The reply should be as follows
........So what does they offical report say about WTC7?
Hummmmm? Almost 6 years ,and no report
Why if it is so F**KING simple?
Let me also point out that even if there was this damage to the corner there's NO way that it would collapse straight down in the amount of time it did!
BUSTED UNPOPULAR MECHANIC'S !
P.S.... The squibs going from bottom to top... Was that reversed compression? Must be because the squibs in the towers going from top to bottom were ...according to you caused from compression.
The "scoop" is a faked image
Somewhere here on 911blogger (a search feature would be nice) are comparative images of that corner of Building 7 revealing that the NIST "scoop" image is faked.
I hope someone can find it..

And here (found it) is the comparison
So while there was some damage, the "scoop" is bullshit, a lie, a fake, a fabrication, by NIST, and then taken up by Miegs and Popular Mechanics. Case closed on that one. No "scoop". Just fire.
It should also be noted that the building went down in 6.5 seconds, where absolute free fall from the height of building 7, in a VACUUM (without air resistence even) is 6 seconds. As well, it went down uniformly, which would require all structural support beams to fail simultaneously, across the entire structure, and all at the same level.

THAT NIST "photo"...
...and the phony NYPD banner makes me wretch.
The NYPD photographers have hirez digital cameras. NEVER , EVER, EVER has the original image with the EXIF data embedded within been and are still available. This one will NEVER be available and show a scoop because it doesn't exist.
Hirez jpgs with the EXIF data probably taken from the same NYPD helicopter are still out there. 911veritas has many.

WOW
CALL ME CRAZY BUT IS THE DAMAGE SEEN IN THE LEFT IMAGE NOT PRESENT IN THE SAME REGIONS OF THE RIGHT IMAGE?
Why, that's the point of it.

A bit more on Aman Zafar's Picture
Personally I trust his pictures more than the NIST one, that clearly has had color alteration and lord knows what other "damage" editing.
I was in contact with Aman (the photographer) and he states to the best of his knowledge the picture was taken around 2pm.
The top two fire damaged floors are 30 and 29 (caused before 11:37am). Middle fire damage with smoke coming out is floor 22 part of reinforced section (floors 22 and 23).
The lowest floor visible on the south-west corner is floor 12, immediately above the "Winter Garden".
Bit more here on west edge damage : http://www.911blogger.com/node/6774#comment-123546

More interesting pictures, including two columns from the west edge of WTC7 that leant against the Verizon building, the tops seem burnt (could be when they burn holes to mount the charges), plus they are all broken at the same height.
Best wishes
The region around the
The region around the alleged damage is much brighter than the rest of the image. Is this a sign of editing? Perhpas someone with photo editing experience could clear thisup.
I've watched perhaps hundreds of hours of footage but found no video that shows antyhing below the 19th floor but smoke and dust.
I think the fact that no such video exists is striking. If this is indeed a retouched photo, which it looks like to me, whoever did this knew that no video existed of anything below the 19th floor.
Brightness reduced, contrast hightened:

Does anybody know if there's better quality version of that last pic? It's the World Financial Center.
Would the blueish image of the WFC damage pasted over the purple WTC7 would explain the washed out part of the WTC7 pic?

Here's a Russian page about the corner damage.
http://wtc911.jino-net.ru/sw-corner-cmp/
Comparing images south-western corner of WTC7
Discharged quantitative comparison of the two colour photographs of fragments west angle tower WTC7 made after a fire in the tower was recorded reporters (16:10), and before the tower collapsed (17:20).The first photograph was taken by an individual and, until recently, been published, the second with a police helicopter and published in the NIST report as evidence that the south-west corner WTC7 was severely damaged from debris strikes towers WTC1 with its collapse.
.....
Conclusion
The channel B (blue) in zones 5 .. 10 second snapshot is not in line with the trend these values in the first. The most logical explanation is artificially changing brightness blue in these zones to improve the "reliability" of the image as a documentary evidence that the picture in the scene damage the south-western corner of WTC7 occurred at the time of caving WTC1 and was due to the impact of large debris and destructive "jet" small debris, traces of which was (primarily) deeply vjevshayasa dust-so clearly in the official photograph.
Summary
Official snapshot (with a very high probability) forged.

photoshop
I'm joining this discussion late so forgive me if someone pointed this out already, but the fifth row of windows from the bottom are clearly evidence of a photoshop job gone bad. It's the same window repeated three times with slight distortions.
Hey Badmachine
.......need to send this along with these comment to Rosie.
I've never seen those pics
I've never seen those pics side by side before. I'm so freaking pissed. This cover up makes me so angry sometimes I can't even deal with it.
Thanks for the heads up on those images
I downloaded this page with all its images:
http://www.amanzafar.com/WTC/index.shtm
In case someone tries to scrub them.
Would be good to have a set with names of the buildings. Took me a while to verify which building was number 7.
It does look like the NIST image is photoshopped.
Thanks.
Damn right it's photoshopped!
I've even seen images where people emulated that kind of damage using photoshop with impeccable success.
Some damage, but no huge scoop.
Also, building 7 is like far far away from the north tower, like almost 400 feet away I think. Not far enough obviously to escape being hit by the EJECTING steel beams, but too far to have been pummeled by falling debris.

Are you trying to debunk
Are you trying to debunk Meigs' "Ice Cream Scoop of God Theory?" Shame on you! You must be one of those godless secular progressives (SPs) we've heard so much about. Have you no respect, sir?
Even with the photo-shopped changes, how does Meigs claim that 25% of the building was scooped out? Methinks they'll have to do some more work on those photos.
By the by, as of 7:00 A.M. "9/11 Mysteries" is on the front page of Google Video. Thanks be to Rosie!
Well, I've already encoutered the NIST "Foot of God" hypothesis
http://www.911scholars.org/NISTandThe%20FootOfGod.html
So why not Miegs "ice scream scoop of God"?
What I find TRULY remarkable, is Meigs' TWENTY FIVE PERCENT OF BUILDING Scoop claim..
What, does he think that by merely SAYING these things makes them true?
The word of Meigs.
"Let there be scoop" and there WAS scoop. Behold, the scoop!
What scoop? That is what we, and all of heaven above are asking now..
For HIS sake, I hope he's NOT a mason. It's not in "congruent alignment" with the truth, and the reality.

An admission of guilt?
Wow, if proven true, this is evidence of a cover-up.
This could be really big folks!
The existence of a faked photo about WTC7 is really an admission of guilt. If one is taking the time to fake a photo, then they KNOW that a real photo (or video), supporting their assertions, does not exist.
The photo editors can be shown to have "Mens Rea" or "Guilty Mind". Some call it "Malice aforethought".
-------------
How did CNN and BBC have foreknowledge of the WTC7 collapse, yet five years later, the government cannot explain it?
Another parallel to JFK...
...with the allegedly faked Oswald photo incriminating him by his "holding" the rifle and newspaper.
"History doesn't repeat itself, but sometimes it rhymes"
These guys apparently have only so many tricks in their bag.
Inside Job Edition?
There was even more, but I think that's a pretty clear picture.

Yeah it was good for us, and for our movement, and Rosie
Nice to actually SEE Building 7 enter into the debate, and you'll note in my post above how they've been caught LYING about "the scoop".
The story of 9/11 is a real scoop however, and they'll note I'm sure that when they cover it, their ratings go way up at the mere mention of it.

I agree, someone at Inside Edition is on our side!
Either that or
ANY sort of attempted rebuttal falls flat on its face relative to the truth and the reality. Maybe that's more like it. All there is is Miegs and Pop Mech, and a NIST report that has STILL to this day, not been published on Building 7, where all they've produced for the Twin Towers is nothing but a "collapse initiation" hypothesis ONLY, never dealing with the actual "collapse" itself, nor even making any MENTION in the final report of the duration of the fall time.
Remember folks, the ENTIRETY of the OCT is encapsulated in only two reports, the NIST and the 9/11 Commission Report, and an article and a littel book by Popular Mechanics, that is all the people have been given for a official historical record on the 9/11 event, which will one day ultimately become known as "The Crime of the Century".

They kept a lid on 7 for years...
now they showed it 5 times in a row, saying it looked like a controlled demolition, and noting it housed several federal agencies. They then let Rosie have the last word, essentially saying go look outside of the US mainstream for more information...
Coincidence or intent?

and it is now confirmed that the backstory of the 9/11 commission report came from evidence gleaned under torture, and then passed to the 9/11 commission. People laugh at the KSM confessions, etc., but don't realize that that information from those 'high value' tortured individuals was the basis by which the 9/11 commission gave their version. People worldwide are already laughing at the government's official story and don't even know it. The 9/11 Commission Report has no credibility at all.
