    holy bumping a 4-year old thread.
  4. ok, first, I have an engineering background, so I know what I'm talking about. Why would it need to be a perfect demolition like those seen on the discovery channel? Those take weeks to prepare. But they wouldn't need a perfect implosion. And I'm fairly certain Gareth has posted an article saying building 7 was closed a day or two before sept. 11th. You don't need tons of explosives to take down a building. Most demolitions only use a small amout of tnt or nitroclycerin on selected columns, with primer cord being used for everything else. Plus, the nature of a demolition is an implosion. You wouldn't see an explosion. and the whole 'experts said such and such' doesn't hold up, because there are experts saying it didn't collapse due to fires. Experts are biased.
  5. umm, you disregard almost everything gareth posts. And he backs up his articles with facts. You just choose to ignore what he writes, labelling it liberal spin and paranoid propaganda. So that makes you sick as well, right?

  10. The KKK, the Crusades, the conflict in Northen Ireland, and missionary imperialism are all examples of how bad Christianity is. Then there's the fact that the Bible condoned rape, murder and slavery. http://www.evilbible.com/ Just a thought on how anything can be misconstrued
  11. Making evacuees pay sparks political fight WASHINGTON - As U.S. citizens scrambled to escape the fighting in Lebanon and the Pentagon announced a massive evacuation effort, another kind of war - this one bitterly political - broke out in Washington over whether the evacuees should be billed for the costs of their own rescue. They were being asked to sign a promissory note, pledging to repay the U.S. government within 90 days for the costs of their evacuation. The paperwork in Beirut sent tempers through the roof in Washington, not to mention among some under fire in Lebanon who have been asked to sign the notes. "We've spent hundreds of billions of dollars in Iraq, we've paid Halliburton money that they haven't even earned, and yet we charge individual Americans who are caught in the crossfire in Lebanon for their transportation costs to get out," said an outraged House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. Calling on President Bush to reassure the public that "this is not just another manifestation of the Katrina mentality," Pelosi added: "A nation that can provide $300 billion for a war in Iraq can provide the money to get its people out of Lebanon." ... Throughout the day, congressional leaders and the administration traded accusations over who was to blame, and each urged the other to rush through a waiver to the law requiring repayment. By Tuesday evening, according to congressional aides, the State Department indicated that evacuees would not be charged. Can't believe this was even a debate
  12. I love the timing on this one. If anyone thinks this is totally legit, they need to check the date.
  13. NASHUA – A city man is charged with violating state wiretap laws by recording a detective on his home security camera, while the detective was investigating the man’s sons. Michael Gannon, 49, of 26 Morgan St., was arrested Tuesday night, after he brought a video to the police station to try to file a complaint against Detective Andrew Karlis, according to Gannon’s wife, Janet Gannon, and police reports filed in Nashua District Court. Police instead arrested Gannon, charging him with two felony counts of violating state eavesdropping and wiretap law by using an electronic device to record Karlis without the detective’s consent. The Gannons’ son, Shawn Gannon, 18, is charged with resisting detention and disorderly conduct, and his wife also was cited for disorderly conduct, she said. Janet Gannon said the family plans to hire a lawyer, and expects to sue the police department. The couple’s 15-year-old son also was arrested, charged as a juvenile in an unrelated robbery case, according to police reports and Janet Gannon. The Gannons installed a video and audio recording system at their home, a four-unit building at 22-28 Morgan St., to monitor the front door and parking areas, family members told police. They installed the cameras about two years ago, buying the system at Wal-Mart, Janet Gannon told the police, according to reports filed in court. The Gannons have owned the property, which is assessed at $382,700, for the past three years, city records show. Janet Gannon spoke with The Telegraph by phone Wednesday afternoon, before going to bail out her husband. She said they installed the system in response to crime in the neighborhood, and at their house. “We’ve had two break-ins. One guy came right up our stairs and started beating on my husband, and we called the cops,” she said. Another time, after someone broke into a camper on their property, Janet Gannon said an officer suggested they were “too rich” for the neighborhood, and should move. The security cameras record sound and audio directly to a videocassette recorder inside the house, and the Gannons posted warnings about the system, Janet Gannon said. On Tuesday night, Michael Gannon brought a videocassette to the police department, and asked to speak with someone in “public relations,” his wife said and police reported. Gannon wanted to lodge a complaint against Karlis, who had come to the family’s house while investigating their sons, Janet Gannon said. She said Karlis showed up late at night, was rude, and refused to leave when they asked him. “He was just very smart-mouthed. He put his foot in the door, and my husband said, ‘Excuse me, I did not invite you in, please leave,’ and he wouldn’t,” Janet Gannon said. “We did not invite him in, we asked him to leave, and he wouldn’t.” After the police arrested the Gannons’ sons, Janet Gannon said, they “secured” the house, and told her and her sister-in-law they had to stay out of it from around 8:45 p.m. Tuesday until about 4 a.m. Wednesday. Police said they were waiting to get a warrant to search the house, Janet Gannon said. “They were waiting for a warrant to seize the cameras and the tapes in my house . . . because they said having these cameras was against the law. They’re security cameras,” she said, adding, “They said they could do that. They could seize my apartment.” Karlis went to the Gannons’ home at about 11:30 p.m. Friday night and again at about 7 p.m. Tuesday, police reported. Karlis was investigating the Gannons’ 15-year-old son in connection with a June 21 mugging outside Margaritas restaurant, for which two other teens already have been charged, according to police reports. The boy also is charged with possessing a handgun stolen three years ago in Vermont, and resisting detention, police said. The boy wasn’t home when Karlis went there, and the Gannons were “uncooperative” regarding his whereabouts, police reported. The Gannons felt police were harassing the family, Janet Gannon said. “There were six cops in my yard,” the first time police came, she said. “My husband was very upset. How many cops does it take to talk to a 15-year-old.” Karlis didn’t know about the security camera until his second visit, when Michael Gannon told him to “smile” for the camera, police reported. Janet Gannon said her husband explicitly warned officers of the camera, later adding “smile,” as a joke. “I heard him say it,” she said. “He said, ‘Gentlemen, there’s a camera right there.’” According to police, however, Janet Gannon told officers she didn’t remember her husband warning police about the security camera. Police reported that Gannon “has a history of being verbally abusive” toward police, and that after his arrest, he remarked that the officers “were a bunch of corrupt (expletives).” link

  16. Have I told you I love you lately? :nice:
  17. You said it would show weakness to give in to the leftists and the terrorists. But even Bush said he wants it closed. So: to close it would be giving in to... Bush? I'd love to hear your view on this. Or are you going to ignore me again. (btw nothing in this post is 'whacky' or 'a joke')
  18. I'm as surprised as you are! Bush, a left-leaning terrorist! Whodathunkit :surprised:

  20. Offering the official administration response to FOX News, a senior Defense Department official pointed out that the chemical weapons were not in useable conditions. "This does not reflect a capacity that was built up after 1991," the official said, adding the munitions "are not the WMDs this country and the rest of the world believed Iraq had, and not the WMDs for which this country went to war." http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,200499,00.html
