On the day the Twin Towers collapsed we were all in shock. We did not know much about the Taliban or Al-Qaeda. The idea that someone, anyone, would actually carry out a terrorist attack of this magnitude on the US homeland was foreign to the minds of most Americans. On that day, we went about our business doing the things that made our lives typically American. Businessmen were engaged in business, tourist went sight-seeing, and the labor force that cared for the infrastructure performed their menial jobs. Within the midst of it all extended two magnificent engineering and architectural accomplishments - the Twin Towers. In a matter of minutes they were gone. We were left with the horror of watching them fall. And we were left with the memory of that very moment. Forever, our lives will carry the memory of where we were when the Towers fell.

The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7

At 5:20 in the afternoon on 9/11, Building 7 of the World Trade Center collapsed, even though it had not been struck by a plane and had fires on only a few floors. The reason for its collapse was considered a mystery. In August 2008, NIST (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) issued its report on WTC 7, declaring that "the reason for the collapse of World Trade Center 7 is no longer a mystery" and that “science is really behind what we have said.” Showing that neither of these claims is true, David Ray Griffin demonstrates that NIST is guilty of the most serious types of scientific fraud: fabricating, falsifying, and ignoring evidence. He also shows that NIST’s report left intact the central mystery: How could a building damaged by fire—not explosives—have come down in free fall?
