Ah, you're finally back.
You're claims are still of the same quality though...

What is your basis that the flights would've been intercepted?
The terrorists also gave bomb threats to the passengers.
And as for box cutters, have you looked at one recently? Note the sharpness of the blade. I've been cut on my hand by those things. Having someone holding it against one's throat is a life threatening situation. Given that the crew of the plane weren't military personal, it's understandable that they complied.

Stuff could have been planted inside the building very easily before the crash and anything could have been put into a robot plane such as bodies, 757 plane parts, etc.
You have yet to show how this planting operation could've been "very easy", not to mention unseen.

Groups of people can be corrupt. What we have to look for is what makes the most sense--not the credentials of who says what.
A poster on these boards gives a great evaluation on this type of thinking:

When it was explained how light and vision actually works, the kid replied with something like "Well, my version still makes more sense to me."
Bascially, just because an explaination makes sense doesn't mean it's the correct one.

The steel beams have solidified molten metal on them. That's an impossibility if the only heat source was jet fuel.

And just who is it that makes claims of molten metal?
How do you know that it's not some other metal with a lower melting point?
How do you know that it's really solidified molten metal and not some other substance?

What he [Steven Jones] says makes sense.
No, what he says merely agrees with your view of the situation.
See the above quote.

The damage on the building might have come from the inside.
Yes, might have. But are you examining the mechanics of this conjecture?


Quote:
Honest people with common sense is nothing to sneeze at. Some of them have credentials and some of them don't. What they say adds up and the official story doesn't add up.
The problem with you is that it seems that you consider everyone that agrees with your view of things as honest, and those that don't agree dishonest, regardless of creditials.
The maker of 'Loose Change' was shown to be dishonest; he made the movie just to get attention.
Others just happen to jump on the bandwagon of conspiracy theories.


Quote:
You seemed to imply that these were difficult questions.
No, just questions we wanted answers to.

Quote:
You guys seem to think that the idea of 9/11 being an inside job is ridiculous. If you've only been reading American newspapers all of your lives, that's understandable.

No, it's because there is no evidence suggesting an inside job. On the other hand, the evidence does support the offical story, as you call it.

And it has nothing, nothing, absolutly nothing to do with what country the information is from. Got that?
That claim of yours is such a crock of feces.


Quote:
The idea that 9/11 was an inside job makes a lot more sense if you look at the big picture.
Yeah, so does the moon hoax.
As said, things SEEM to make sense until you study the factors involved.
You skip that part, and just stick to what you like.


Quote:
If some of you guys who say you're non-Americans disagree with what that info says, I'm going to wonder if you're speaking your true thoughts.
How do you know that it's not because they use crititcal thinking, look up the relevent information, and/or have their own education in the relevent fields?

Your "country of origin" idea is lousy.

Quote:

Almost all of the conversations about those subjects I've heard in my seventeen years of living outside of the US have been based on the info in those articles. I've spoken to people from the countries dealt with in the articles and they say the same things the articles say.

I highly doubt that.
Seems more likely that you're just speaking to the conspiracy theory crowd, and not anyone that is educated in relevent fields of structural engineering.
