The Patriot Act that took away our freedoms was written well BEFORE and PRIOR to 9/11, not because of 9/11. It was passed while America was dumbfounded. Why not call it the Take Away Your Freedoms That Our Forefathers Fought and Died For Act? Slap Patriot on it, AND IT'S OK.

Read Naomi Klein's "The Shock Doctrine".

"And the crime scene in New York, the buildings that were pulverized to dust instantly"

Why ruin the good points you were making with this kind of nonsense? Nothing was pulverized to dust instantly. There was tons of debris, much of it very large, and it took months to clean up. Most of the people who did it were volunteer union workers who had no reason to be protecting the GOP, Bush, Cheney etc.

In the sense that other buildings on fire took far longer to come down and were not pulverized into such a fine powder does equate to instantaneous.

Firefighters could not find any objects larger than a telephone touch pad - and that's a lot of differentiated material comprising those towers.

The thermal satellite imaging shows a source of energy for weeks afterwards - and chemical analysis identifies thermite + sulfur = thermate (you might need to add the pdf extension).

1 This paper deals with the incendiary events and the forensic evidence that remains to prove that the official story is wrong. Specifically, this paper discusses the chemistry of iron-aluminum-rich microspheres that are found in the dust from the rubble, the chemical content of these microspheres and the physical chemistry of the iron-sulfur-oxygen system since sulfur is one of the omnipresent elements in the iron-aluminum-rich microspheres and was also found in a metallurgical study of structural iron from the WTC 7 2.

WTC_apndxC.htm, by Jonathan Barnett, Ronald R. Biederman, R. D. Sisson, Jr. of Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Dr. Steven Jones discovered the iron-aluminum-rich microspheres and has analyzed their elemental composition using XEDS analysis.3 This discovery, of recent date, is a very important addition to the body of evidence that disproves the official story. At the present time the interpretation of these microspheres is still under discussion as is the composition of the incendiary they imply.

About Thermite

The evidence is overwhelming that thermite or a thermite-like mixture was used in the WTC 2 tower very shortly before the building fell. What was the purpose of this? Thermite has been used to weld railroad rail sections together and also to cut structural steel. It has also been used for military purposes such as destroying guns and other weapons, disabling engines, and to rapidly destroy cryptographic machines. It appears that in the WTC it was used to cut structural steel in an early phase of controlled demolition.

This use implies that whatever the task, it had to be completed in the last minute or so before the building began to fall. Any chemical process that continued after the primary task was completed is simply an unavoidable sequela of the primary purpose.

An excellent article on thermite is posted in wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Thermite#Types.
There are a number of possible reactions that could produce large amounts of heat that could be used to melt (cut) steel. For example,

Fe2O3 + 2Al -> Al2O3 + 2Fe

3FeO + 2Al -> Al2O3 + 3Fe
