Dr. Niels Harrit is a retired associate professor of chemistry at the University of Copenhagen and one among an international team of scientists who published a paper in The Open Chemical Physics Journal on the discovery of nano-thermite in the dust from the World Trade Center collapses on September 11, 2001. He has recently finished a lecture tour of Canadian universities, where he spoke on the subject.
In this interview on the cable program Face to Face with Jack Etkin, Dr. Harrit discusses this finding and its implications. Dr. Harrit notes that World Trade Center building 7 (WTC 7), a 47-story steel-framed skyscraper that was not hit by one of the planes on 9/11, collapsed symmetrically into its own footprint, and that the official explanation for this is that it was due to fire. However, the finding of nano-thermite in the dust, along with other available evidence, leads inescapably to another conclusion. “There is no doubt that this building was taken down in a controlled demolition,” says Dr. Harrit. “I consider this to be [a] mainstream scientific conclusion. There’s no way around this conclusion. There are so many observations that are only compatible with a controlled demolition.”
“Science is based on observation and experience,” says Dr. Harrit in the interview. Pointing out that it had never occurred before 9/11, he says, “A steel framed high rise simply does not collapse due to fire.”
Among the other evidence is the observation that WTC 7 fell at the acceleration of gravity, or free-fall acceleration. Fire, says Dr. Harrit, cannot do that to a building. “All of these columns had to be cut at the same time for this phenomenon to happen,” he says.
While conventional thermite is an incendiary, made from a mixture of powdered aluminum and iron oxide, Dr. Harrit explains that nano-thermite is manufactured from the atomic scale up. The ingredients are much more intimately mixed, he says, so they react with each other much faster. Unlike thermite, “Nano-thermite can be used as an explosive,” notes Dr. Harrit. “You can use thermite for cutting the steel beams, and it’s soundless,” he adds.
Discussing the relevance and importance of the conclusion that the three World Trade Center towers were destroyed in a controlled demolition, Dr. Harrit says, “I think what happened on September 11, 2001 is the most important event to our generation, and for our children…. And the consequences of this event should be obvious to everyone. But it’s not. But it’s happening at such a slow pace that people maybe do not connect the dots.”
It’s not just about getting history right and understanding what truly happened on 9/11, according to Dr. Harrit. “I think the whole civilization is in the balance these days,” he says. “Planet Earth will still be there no matter what we do…. But what we call civilization — if you care about music, this is what we’re talking about. If you care about the health of your grandparents, this is what we’re talking about. If you care about theater, literature, kids playing in the playground. Whatever you care for, whatever you love, this is what’s at stake here. Civilization. And it’s very fragile. And it can easily be lost.”
He discusses issues ranging from the environment to the loss of liberty due to the threat of terrorism stemming from the attacks of 9/11. The U.S. has waged multiple wars using 9/11 as a pretext, even though, in the case of Afghanistan, the publicly stated purpose for the war was to bring to justice the presumed mastermind of the attacks, Osama bin Laden. Yet, Dr. Harrit points out, to this day, “we haven’t seen the evidence for this person actually being guilty in the crime, and he is not wanted by the FBI for this attack on 9/11.” An FBI spokesperson, Rex Tomb, Dr. Harrit observes, in fact explained to reporter Ed Haas that 9/11 is not listed on bin Laden’s “Wanted” poster because the FBI does not have enough hard evidence to connect him to 9/11 to indict him in a court of law.
Dr. Harrit credits Dr. Steven Jones, a retired professor of physics at Brigham Young University, with having the insight to examine the dust to look for evidence of how the buildings collapsed. Dr. Harrit rebuts two of the more common attempts to dismiss the discovery of nano-thermite in the dust. One dismissal that is often heard is that this material was a natural occurrence resulting from the collapses. Dr. Harrit points out that this violates basic chemical principles, and that nano-thermite is a high-tech manufactured substance that cannot result from natural occurrences. Another charge is that the material was planted in the dust samples Dr. Harrit and his team examined, a claim Dr. Harrit regards as preposterous, noting that the chain of custody of each of the four samples examined for the peer-reviewed paper is well-documented.
Nano-thermite, Dr. Harrit explains further, is “produced only in military facilities and big military institutions in the world…. The explosions of the future are based on this technology…. Research is going on, but it’s military research. This is high technology material.”
“We know explosives were used,” says Dr. Harrit, to bring down the towers. However, “We do not know where the nano-thermite fits into this picture. We do not know the exact role played by the reactive remains we found.” Further investigation is required to answer the questions that arise from this discovery. But the bottom line, notes Dr. Harrit, is that “Nano-thermite shouldn’t have been there.”

Dr. Harrit and his 8 colleagues published this peer-reviewed two-year science study, which made headlines in the major Danish newspapers in 2010, but the news never reached the North American media:
Niels H. Harrit, Jeffrey Farrer, Steven E. Jones, et al., “Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe,” Open Chemical Physics Journal, Vol. 2 (April 3, 2009): 7-31 (http://www.bentham.org/open/tocpj/openaccess2.htm).
“Dr. Harrit and his 8 colleagues published this peer-reviewed two-year science study…”
This study dodged real peer review by submitting to faux pay to play publisher. At 1 least reviewer was a truther and the other remains anonymous. At least 5 people have resigned from Bentham due to their non standards, 2 of which were the editors in the journal which Harrit & co were published. Typical Steven Jones smoke n mirror show.
All they found was paint on oxydized steel.
You don’t know anything about the peer-review process of Bentham journals, and you clearly didn’t ever bother to read the study, or you wouldn’t suggest it was paint.
Bill, paint does not act explosively when you light it. This residue was explosive when heat was applied.
According to the scientific method, the proper way to rebut a science study is to write up a paper, submit it to a journal for peer review and see it published. No such scientific rebuttal to the Harrit et al paper has yet appeared.
Ad hominems against the science journal do not count as a rebuttal to the paper.
Neither do ad hominems against Steven Jones.
Resorting to ad hominem is usually seen as a sign of weak argument.
Well said, Aussie.
I see that the whole journal which carried the Harrit et al. article is now down again. It was down while Dr. Harrit was lecturing in Canada, then went back up on March 4th as he was nearing the end of his tour, and now is gone again. Fortunately the article is available elsewhere online, see below, and it should perhaps be posted around the Internet to prevent its loss:
Niels H. Harrit, Jeffrey Farrer, Steven E. Jones, et al., “Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe,” Open Chemical Physics Journal, Vol. 2 (April 3, 2009): 7-31,
http://www.scientistsfor911truth.org/docs/Harrit_active_thermite.pdf
I’ve noticed it goes down and comes back online fairly frequently. I’ve seen this pattern at least three times now.
Lest we forget:
The program and video is ©2011 Lazarus Productions.
What? No mention of the “many, many tons. Hundred of tens” of conventional explosives that were used, according to Harrits interview with Russia Today?
And is Harrit intentionally ignoring that bin Laden is already indicted for several other terrorist acts prior to 9/11? And that bin Laden is wanted for 9/11 through Rewards for Justice, which is run by the US State Department?
That OBL was indicted prior to 9/11 is irrelevant to Harrit’s point, which is that there is not enough evidence of his involvement in 9/11 to indict him in a court of law. That the State Department lists OBL as wanted is also irrelevant to Harrit’s point, which is that he is not wanted by the FBI for 9/11, because there is not enough evidence of his involvement in 9/11 to indict him in a court of law.
Not quite sure which part of that, KDL, you don’t understand.
” Unlike thermite, “Nano-thermite can be used as an explosive,” notes Dr. Harrit. “You can use thermite for cutting the steel beams, and it’s soundless,” he adds.
Soundless? Sorry but the hallmark of an explosive is the shockwave it produces. What a bunch of ridiculous nonsense.
Thermite isn’t an explosive, Bill. It’s an incendiary. That point is clear in the interview. Nano-thermite can be made into explosives. But like Dr. Harrit said, you can use thermite for cutting steel, and it isn’t loud as with explosives.
There are videos where you can see how thermite is cutting the steel. It doesn’t make explosion if you don’t intend it to and its not loud. Go check em out
What one has to bear in mind, Bill, is that the Harrit et al paper provides the forensics that best explain the very rapid, symmetrical and explosive nature of the top-down destruction of the two towers – as well as the smooth descent of Building Seven, not hit by a plane and subject to limited fire.
NIST’s ‘fire and gravity’ explanation for those events are fraught with inconsistencies. Indeed, NIST’s explanations stop at the ‘initiation of collapse’, not proceeding any further to explain the global symmetry and speed of these events.
As others have said, the speed of the demolitions, which you can measure yourself with a timer while observing the video, is the giveaway that these buildings had ‘help’.
Even without Harrit, it is clear there is something wrong with the NIST explanation.
Jones hypothesised the buildings had to have had ‘help’ coming down, given the astonishing descent through the path of greatest resistance.
He hypothesised explosive/incendiary use. NIST failed to look for evidence of incendiaries. Harrit et al examined rubble and found the fingerprint of a sophisticated nano-structured incendiary which is made in military laboratories – not civilian labs. His work rounds off the hypothesis, but is not central to revealing that WTC 7 (and indeed WTC 1 and 2) came down in unnaturally speedy and symmetrical fashion. His work is but the icing on the cake, the final nail in a coffin already built.
Why are so many so quick to dismiss Harrit’s paper? If you are not a nano-chemist, your understanding may be somewhat limited. Why not join in with those of us calling for a wider debate among the world’s science community – for wider, free and fair coverage of this subject by mainstream media – which effectively censors the subject at present?
Why shut down transparent discussion before it’s even started?
Why the a priori ad hominem and derision?
Didn’t Barack Obama say not so long ago that open discussion and free speech is the lifeblood of democracy?
Very well said, again, Aussie.
Do you know when they gonna publish their TEM results?
Thanks for the feedback Jeremy. Having followed this discussion for a while – and having read Harrit and Jones’ own words on the subject – I have come to the conclusion the biggest problem is the lack of mainstream media coverage afforded to these scientists.
Why will the mainstream not touch Jones or Harrit? Why can’t we the public be trusted to read what they say and make up our own minds. Because the Harrit paper never made it into the mainstream I come across people in our local science faculty who have never heard of it. More widespread coverage of the work of people like Harrit, Gage and MacQueen means more awareness and more democratic debate.
Let this be thrashed out among experts – once they are all alerted to it. At the moment the media is not informing the public of these dissenting opinions – which come from respected professionals who have a democratic right to be heard, surely? At the moment, they are effectively censored.
In the meantime, kudos to you Jeremy, for allowing the free flow of information – without fear or favour – at FPJ.
Appreciated, aussie. That’s why I started FPJ, to do the job our mainstream media perpetually fails us at. ;)
Can you please provide full names of those 2 scientists, Gage and MacQueen and how can I find their research (where it was published and what’s the name on it).

I am no expert but nanothermite appears to me to be an excellent material to be used in a thermobaric device made expressly for the WTC 1 and 2. Thermobaric explosions can rival the explosive power of nuclear bombs. They are what happens in a silo explosion or a coal dust explosion. I would imagine nanothermite would make much more powerful ones. While the WTC 7 appears to be an example of a conventional controlled demolition, the towers were another kettle of fish. The design of the towers were a tube within a tube. That is, none of the really strong central core (more concentrated than the framing of the the Empire State building was left standing. While the outer perimeter exploded like popcorn. This tells me the inner core framing was cut by shaped charges while the outer perimeter was destroyed by a nanothermite thermobaric device. It also explains why when you watch the collapses they look like a big roman candle fireworks (without the color). it also explains why Ground Zero was smoldering for months from the residual heat.
From Global Security.org – “The Thermobaric [TB] Weapon Demonstration will develop a weapon concept that is based on a new class of solid fuel-air explosive thermobarics. The term “thermobaric” is derived from the effects of temperature (the Greek word “therme” means “heat”) and pressure (the Greek word “baros” means “pressure”) on the target. The weapon could be used against a certain type of tunnel targets for a maximum functional kill of the tunnels…Unlike free-field blast loads, a detonation within a tunnel system can have a significant dynamic pressure component. This dynamic pressure component, in conjunction with the overpressure component, makes up the entire pressure-loading history necessary to predict component response…For instance, detonation reactions are slower (than conventional high explosives – such as thermite) but more energy is released in a way that has the potential to produce a lot more damage.”
An elevator shaft in the core of the WTC could be considered as a large vertical tunnel. A fuel-air explosive is an example of a thermobaric weapon. A fuel-air explosive can have the effect of a tactical nuclear weapon without residual radiation. If a fuel-air charge is fired inside a building or bunker, the cloud is contained and this amplifies the force on the load-bearing components of the structure.
2nd Sight Magazine
Thermobaric Weapons
The Canadian Defence agency hopes to eventually develop computer software that will allow military engineers to quickly determine whether the structure of a building might be vulnerable to a thermobaric explosion.
It is my theory that their cohorts to the south did such computations and designed 2 or more devices for a special project – WTC 1 & 2 … New computational approaches and diagnostics for explosives characterization have made the development of a “designer” main charge feasible…This work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under contract No. W-7405 -Eng-48. 1997
And the opposition responds.
Yeah, one needn’t read very far into this, John, to see how weak it is:
It might have escaped you, John, but I trust the fallacy of this criticism of Harrit is glaringly obvious enough to FPJ’s intelligent readership.
The “thermite” paper proves no thermite. The chemistry was wrong. Harrit published proof it was not thermite, in the same paper. The dust burned too cold to be thermite. The energy released was not the same as thermite. Reading the paper exposes it as fraud. One of the co-authors, Dr Jones believes the United States caused the earthquake in Haiti. He also made up the thermite claims with no evidence 4 years after 911. There are real studies on the dust from the WTC done many years ago.
Roland, what do you mean “The dust burned too cold to be thermite?” and “The energy released was not the same as thermite”? Explain. You sound like you have no clue what you are talking about, so I’ll call your bluff.
Roland , I politely suggest that if you submitted the above paragraph to a journal it would not pass peer-review. The proper way to rebut the ‘Active Thermitics’ study is to write up a paper – showing via supporting evidence and full reference – that ‘the dust burned too cold’ etc, etc..
Ad hominems also don’t cut it, unfortunately.
Anyone with even a small amount of intelligence and the ability to see, would immediately come to the conclusion that the collapse of WTC 7 was controlled demolition. Only an idiot would come to any other conclusion.
they weakened the foundations with explosives in each tower’s basement, prior to the planes hitting, then brought them down with nanothermite placed up and down inside the elevator shafts. it’s been said work was being done on the elevators in the days before. the entire demolition op was based and controlled from the OEM in WT7, hence the need to destroy it. if i was to make an educated guess at who pulled it off? mossad, with a little CIA help. my theory anyway.
Well, I can ascertain that a little-known report “WT7011W (originally published at Truthbunny ) does indeed speak of microdendrites found in the rubble.
Dr. Niels knows, as reported to me by the above “Bunny”. Bunny has a friend who has intimated detail of the WTC7 demolition, but for obvious reason, keeps their mouth shut.
Indeed there are approximately 275,000 people involved in this conspiracy. We’re just waiting for at least 10 (that’s TEN) of them to open their mouths.
When one does it singly, they are immediately terminated. This has happened several times as you all know!
Anyhow check that http://www.plonque.com/bunny above! But DO NOT print it!
OK. So I am one of them. What do you plan to do about it?
Do you wish a list of the other 274,999 co-conspirators?
Sorry, my mouth is sealed. I do not have many of their names anyhow.
And many of us are heavily involved in the CIA, the Mossad, and the NYC fire department.
Best you stop all this “conspiracy” talk while you still have your health.
We will release the astounding truth in our own good time, just as we will release detailsabout the Kennedy assassination(s), the faked Apollo moon-landings and Sector 51.
You will be shocked. But for now, be patient.
Bunny and Newsie – I’ve just read your comments. Perhaps you are here just having a laugh. Fair enough. But you contribute nothing to this discussion.
You conflate this discussion with silly red herrings, like faked moon landings.
Lame. My kids could probably come up with something more exciting. Your offerings suggest you have no better rebuttal. This suggests you are in trouble if ‘Sector 51’ is all you have to lean on.
Given Cass Sunstein’s call to ‘infiltrate’ and ‘break up’ discussion around this issue (read D.R.Griffin’s book Cognitive Infiltration: An Obama Appointee’s Plan to Disrupt..) you might find that people will (fairly or unfairly) assume you have a particular agenda when you appear here.
As Paul Craig Roberts has written: (I paraphrase) If people discussing 911 are ‘kooks’ why are people like Cass Sunstein so worried about them they want to ‘disrupt and break them up’?
Why does freedom of speech and open discussion worry you to the extent you have to chip in with blatant nonsense, better expressed in a school playground?
What are you worried about? What do you fear?
You conflate this discussion with silly red herrings, like faked Airliners crashing in to the WTC.
“Lame. My kids could probably come up with something more exciting”
Alas, your children probably will.
And it will not be because of silly http://poutine.tk innuendo.
-Another co-conspirator. And, an expert in Psychotronic Thermite Placement in tall thin structures.
Do yo govern yourselves accordingly.
If 911 was an inside job, the people who planned it had to control NORAD. NORAD was the US Air Force agency empowered to shoot down hijacked aircraft, based on some predefined threat level. Dick Cheney had that authority transferred to him in June 2001. He was the man who refused to let Flight #77, which hit the Pentagon, be shot down. Why? Good question. He is not talking! Few people know that. Even fewer know he reversed that power transfer order a few months AFTER 911. Almost like he dared folks to call him on it.
If 911 was not an inside job, why did Bush do everything in his power to thwart any investigation of 911.
The question many folks ask is, if 911 was an inside job, why did they do it?
Fair question. The basic answer is money, which is a pathway to power. Consider that yearly profits of porn, gambling and illegal drugs in the USA amount to $85 billion per year. The profits derived from the wars being fought at the present
are roughly $500 billion per year. There is no business more profitable than war for the war
merchants and bankers. Without the Communist threat putting fear into the hearts of every American, a new threat had to be found. The big bad islamo-fascist threat appeared on 911. And the green flag to go to war was waved.
Anyone who gets in the way of the military industrial war complex is asking for trouble.
JFK issued executive memorandum 263 on October 5, 1963. It ordered that American troops ( 16,000 in Vietnam at the time)begin a formal drawdown. JFK was killed Nov 22, 1963. President Johnson reversed #263, with a new executive memorandum, #273 on November 26, 1963 which ordered a troop build up in Vietnam. Who benefited from war?
This is all about creating wars, framing innocent nations or groups and then demonizing anyone who dares to question any part of the script the government offers.
I have never heard such nonsense in my entire life.
I admit I don’t have the level of knowledge to prove or even disprove Dr. Niels Harrit. What I am extremely good at though and have very rarely made a mistake with, is judging peoples character from watching them and reading their body language. I am afraid to conclude from my observations as a people watcher of some 45 years, that Dr. Niels Harrit is in my professional opinion a complete fraud. I’m sorry but liars are extremely easy for me to identify.
There is more believable evidence for a conspiracy theory of the Islamic God Allah and his Prophet Mohamed visiting the earth and plotting the whole thing. They were able to place their martyrs at the right place at the right time, yadda, yadda, yadda!
How can anyone trust a grown man who is also supposedly educated, who wares an earing?
If anyone wants to prove something, get evidence that is CONCLUSIVE and not circumstantial and of the “Could Be” varuety. Speaking louder than normal, does not make something true!
I don’t like people who give academics a bad name.
This is one of the dumbest comments I’ve ever read.
So you have watched people for 45 years and this “How can anyone trust a grown man who is also supposedly educated, who wares an earing?” (with “wares” instead of “wears”) is your maing argument?
My god man, get a grip.
Seriously.
OK. It’s “wears” not “wares”. That’s his “maing” argument, we’ll agree.
What is your maing argument?
You ignore the evidence and just go straight for character assassination.
The evidence matters, personality is irrelevant – and all you’ve done successfully is demonstrate that you don’t care for the evidence, you just want to marginalize Dr. Harrit based on your expertise in people watching and a few petty prejudices you seem to have.
Nano thermite has been discovered by 2 separate parties using spectrometer microscopes on multiple dust samples taken from different parts of the WTC complex site. Their findings corroborate each other and I strongly suspect that another independent party analyzing the dust will further corroborate this in the near future.
This evidence conclusively demonstrates the presence of a high-tech material used in explosives and for cutting steel – a substance that should not have been present.
The perpetrator and their motive may not be identified but that fact does not disqualify the conclusive presence of advanced thermitic materials being discovered.
Harrit’s paper rebuts itself. The paper does not support thermite. The iron spheres found after the dust “burned” are iron oxide, not a product of thermite. The heat contained in each sample did not match thermite. The DSC done (who knows why) does not match thermite. The paper shows Harrit is a fraud, with a fantasy. He is anti-war, and cares less how he opposes the “wars”. They found iron and Al in the dust, wave their hands and declare thermite after doing some tests gullible people think are proof of thermite.
Harrit’s paper does not rebut itself. The paper does support thermitic material. The iron spheres found in the dust are not rust. The energy contained in the chips does not match rust. Etc.

Before you can charge someone with a crime, you have to know what crime was committed. Should a death be ruled a homicide by gunshot, there better be a bullet hole in the body…
The order of crime solving, that one must first identify:
1) WHAT happened before determining
2) HOW “it” happened…before one can determine
3) WHO did “it” or
4) WHY they did “it.”
Since writing her book, Dr. Wood has come to understand more clearly how cover-ups work. People are encouraged to skip step #1 and begin arguing about step #2. In order to argue about HOW “it” happened, people are left to IMAGINE what “it” was that happened. From then on, they are only addressing an imaginary problem, not a real problem. And they can never ever solve the real problem unless they begin with step #1, which defines WHAT the problem is they need to solve. So skipping to step #3 is a useless path that leads you nowhere. See how easy a cover-up works! ;-)
THE DIRECTED ENERGY COVER-UP TEAM
https://salsa3.salsalabs.com/o/50694/images/Richard-DavidG-StevenJ.jpg
Other examples of Directed Energy (not necessarily used as a weapon) are radio waves, cell phone signals, TV remote control signals, wireless internet signals…etc.
Those who want to cover up the evidence of what happen often falsely claim that Dr. Wood is talking about a specific weapon and a specific location of it (e.g. laser beam from outer space, or “spacebeams”). This disinformation campaign was initiated by Steven Jones on 11/11/2006 in a presentation he gave in California (available in the internet archives), telling his audience that “Judy Woods (Dr. Wood) says it’s a laser or maser from space” while showing how difficult it is to hold his hand like a beam from space. Not only does Dr. Wood NOT SAY THAT, she actually RULES THAT OUT. The mechanism of destruction of a laser beam would be from heat and produce a bright and blinding light. But we know the buildings were not cooked to death. The term Directed Energy is used because energy is directed to do something different then it normally does and it is directed to do this within a certain geographic zone. [As a mental example, think of directing the binding energy of matter to repel instead of attract. A solid object would turn to atomic-sized dust. Direct this to happen within the WTC complex and not across the street.]
At the end of Chapter 20 in Dr. Wood’s book, she explains why playing “name the weapon” game is counterproductive. Name dropping trendy terms is not synonymous with understanding. The easiest example is HAARP. The full capabilities are classified. But people often name-drop the trendy term to APPEAR to know something. A tongue-in-cheek definition of HAARP stands for High Amplitude Advancement of Real Propaganda. They are just substituting “HAARP” for “Bin Laden.”
In Dr. Wood’s book, the closest she comes to “naming a weapon” is merely describing what it creates: magnetic-electrogravitic-nuclear reactions (page 365). But as soon as someone starts talking about a name, people will stop looking at the evidence which is another form of a cover up.
Early on, Steven Jones created a website he called “The Journal of Nine Eleven Studies” or J.O.N.E.S. It is referred to as a “peer-reviewed journal” but the only peer-reviewing was to screen out true scientific work and post what he wanted his followers to believe. For the first two years, it was primarily used to promote disinformation about Dr. Wood’s work. For example, Jones recruited a patent attorney for the oil and gas industry (James Gourley) to write hit pieces on Dr. Wood, refuting “ray beams from outer space.” This convinced his readers that “Judy Woods” must be talking about “ray beams from outer space” and that “such nonsense has been refuted.” Refuting false propaganda about Dr. Wood’s work does not refute Dr. Wood’s work — yet it creates the belief in the average person that Dr. Wood’s work has been refuted.
Steven Jones and Greg Jenkins also claimed that it would take more than five times the world’s energy to destroy the WTC towers. Does that mean their thermite came from off planet or “outer space”? LOL Steven Jones used to ridicule Dr. Wood during his talks saying that “Judy Woods needs to make calculations to see if it is even possible to turn the buildings to dust”. But any reputable scientist knows that calculations are not a part of observing empirical evidence. What are the calculations for, to prove the buildings are still there or if the buildings are gone? Why not just look? No assumptions needed with empirical evidence.
The bottom line is that no one has refuted anything in Dr. Wood’s book nor can they. They only refute their own false propaganda about her book, not her book. Other detractors claim that “she hasn’t identified the weapon that was used so she’s got nothing.” To the contrary. The evidence is PROOF that there exists a technology that can do what was done. It happened. That is, the fact that the buildings mostly turned to dust in mid-air shows that there exists a weapon that can turn buildings into dust in mid-air. It happened.
The sub-title of the book, “Evidence of Directed Free-Energy Technology on 9/11” indicates that the book contains evidence of what happened on 9/11 and it is indeed evidence that a technology exists that can do what was done. But this technology does not have to be used for evil purposes. It can be used to provide free-energy to the world much to the demise of the oil and gas industry. That is, Dr. Wood is noting that the same technology that was used for evil can also be used for good. It’s a silver lining in the dark cloud… while also trying to stimulate thought about “what are we doing here? learning new ways to kill or to live”?
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.” -Dr. Carl Sagan (1934-1996)

CONTROLLED EFFECTS
by Dr. William L. Baker*
“The effects can vary in the type of damage mechanism (e.g., blast/fragment, thermal, or ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE [c-DEW: been there, done that]) as well as the magnitude of the energy deposited on the target so that it will be just enough to defeat the target while minimizing collateral damage.”

“Scientists will have to overcome technological hurdles, such as the production and storage of antimatter, the ability to propagate sensory information, OR THE ABILITY TO HARNESS AND EXTRACT ENERGY FROM THE ENVIRONMENT [Hurricane Erin 2001: been there, done that], before these sciencefiction concepts will become reality.”

*Dr. William L. Baker retired on 1/2/10 as the Chief Scientist of the Directed Energy Directorate, Air Force Research Laboratory, Kirtland Air Force Base, N.M. With an annual budget of more than $300 million, the directorate is responsible for all of the Air Force research and development of lasers, high-power microwave and advanced optical technologies. The directorate conducts advanced technology research to support major applications such as airborne lasers, large optical systems for space situational awareness, airborne high-power microwaves, long-range non-lethal weapons and improvised explosive device defeat. The Chief Scientist is the directorate’s primary adviser on scientific and technical matters and the primary authority for the technical content and quality of the science and technology portfolio.
Dr. Baker was born in Columbus, Ohio. He received his doctorate in nuclear physics from The Ohio State University in 1969 and served four years on active duty in the Air Force as a nuclear research officer. In 1973 he became a civilian scientist at the Air Force Weapons Laboratory where he performed and led high-energy plasma and pulse power research to develop new techniques to simulate nuclear weapon effects. His work in directed energy weapon technology began with high-energy particle beam weapons. Dr. Baker led a joint effort to develop a unique accelerator and used it to demonstrate stable beam propagation in open air. He then created and led the Air Force high-power microwave weapon technology program. As Chief Scientist, he led research and development on high-energy laser weapons technology and the application of advanced optics to space situational awareness. He is a nationally recognized contributor and leader across the entire spectrum of directed energy technologies. He has been president of the Directed Energy Professional Society for the past two years.
Dr. Baker has written more than 50 publications in nuclear physics, plasma physics, pulsed power and directed energy.

I can tell you the company that applied the nano Thermate to the steel beams on 911. It was Turner demolition the only company allowed to work on any of the buildings. The day after 911 all records of Them were erased from history. The owner of the company owns his own island off Costa Rica.
