While I was in Albany, NY recently, I heard about a museum exhibit called "The Mystery of the Albany Mummies" and, according to the museum's brochure, these two mummies have been put through every scientific test known to science so that we can now know everything about them that there is to know. Mystery solved.
And at the New York State Museum, also in Albany, there is also a huge
exhibit regarding the World Trade Center and 9-11. But when I went to
see that exhibit, I got more confused instead of being less confused.
Two major questions immediately stood out in my mind. Or perhaps
three. Or more.
First, one part of the exhibit stated that lots of personal items were found in the rubble -- including jewelry, gold rings and even credit cards. Huh? Steel melted on 9-11-01 but credit cards didn't?
Second, the exhibit made a big point about the Towers being held up by exterior steel beams, and also that the interior floors collapsed onto each other because of their weight. So the interiors of the buildings collapsed, according to the exhibit. But then why did the exterior steel girders collapse too? Under the pressure? Because they melted?
Then why didn't the desks and toys and other paraphernalia at the exhibit collapse and melt too?
I'm confused.

Third, a lot of the items on exhibit were all covered by gray ash --
but not the kind that results from burning office paper. So what kind
of ash was it? The kind caused by thermite? We may never know. But
some enterprising curator
could solve this mystery for me in a New York minute -- by just testing
that freaking ash for traces of explosives. Sherlock Holmes would have
done that. Or that guy from CSI. With all of
those forensic crime-scene shows on TV, one would think that Americans
would demand at least the same
level of inquiry that Ted Danson would have delivered. But no.
Why haven't the Twin Towers been put through the same rigorous scientific scrutiny as the Twin Mummies of Albany?
Darned if I know.

And also, if they had all those girders and fire trucks and photos on
exhibit, why didn't they also have the airplanes' black boxes and the
NORAD reports on exhibit too? And the NSA reports and the "chatter"
from Dick Cheney's war room? I wish they'd had a section devoted solely
to "conspiracy theories". And a section devoted to means, motive and
opportunity as well! And why did this museum
stick so closely to the "official story" even though the exhibits
themselves contradicted each other?
There was also some verbiage at the exhibit about how the Twin Towers held up for an hour or so at first -- until the heat from the fires melted the steel even though the jet fuel had immediately burned off. So the burning jet fuel didn't cause the meltdown? Huh? What did I miss?
The museum's graphic photos of the Twin Towers collapsing in on themselves showed what had to be a controlled demolition -- because if even a few of the 237 steel girders holding up Towers 1 and 2 had melted even a fraction of a second faster than others, the WTC would have toppled over to one side like a child's stack of blocks, possibly taking out the Wall Street stock exchange with it -- or at least a bunch of churches, hotels, office buildings or banks. And we all know that didn't happen. http://www.globalresearch.ca/
And then there were those horrible photos of people falling from windows, windows that would had been impossible to open by human hands but which had possibly been blown out by the explosion of the airplane fuel, taking hundreds of unwilling human beings with them too. But how many more survivors of the original explosions had been blown out through even more usually-unopenable windows when Tower 1 and Tower 2 suddenly pancaked down, evenly and synchronistically destroying 237 steel girders per floor as they went?

By this time I was almost in tears.
I finally left the exhibit sorely saddened by all those lives that had been lost -- but also scratching my head in confusion.
Next I'm going to go visit the Twin Mummies -- where there are scientific methods at work that I can actually follow and understand.
PS: What the freak would be the motivation for creating a "Second Pearl Harbor" and then covering it up? Perhaps it was six TRILLION dollars? That's the amount of money that war profiteers have made (so far) from the invasion of Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Gaza, Egypt, etc. Means, motive and opportunity. No mystery here.

That's $75,000 that has been paid to War Street by every single man,
woman and child in America. Sounds like a huge incentive to me. And
oil companies' motives? The oil fields of Iraq, Libya, Syria, etc? And
the bees still all buzzing around the oil in Iran? With Kuwait and
Saudi Arabia next?
"But, Jane," you might say, "Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are our allies. An attack on them would never happen." You think not? Well. Saddam Hussein used to be War Street's ally too and look what happened to him. And America used to be Big Oil's ally as well but with six trillion dollars at stake, Big Oil clearly would have had no problems selling America out. It's a dog-eat-dog world out there. Anything's possible.
PPS: By asking just a few simple questions, Paul Craig Roberts does a much better job than the NY State Museum of describing what happened on 9/11/01:

Question 1: "The national security state was defeated by a few rag tag
Muslims with
box cutters and a sick old man dying from renal failure while holed up
in a cave in Afghanistan, and no heads rolled." Why wasn't anyone in
our government ever held accountable for this spectacular failure?
Question 2: "Do you
know what temperature self-cleaning ovens reach?" http://www.
PPPS: According to investigative reporter Russ Baker, "George H. W. Bush may be one of the few Americans of his generation who
cannot recall exactly where he was when John F. Kennedy was shot in
Dallas on November 22, 1963." And Poppy Bush had all kinds of reasons for wanting Kennedy dead. http://whowhatwhy.com/2013/10/
Baker also states in his articles that Grandpoppy Prescott Bush, that guy who chose being a cheerleader for the Nazis over cheering for America during WWII, also hated JFK. http://www.theguardian.com/
So. If Grandpoppy Bush had no qualms about siding with the Nazis over his own country, and Poppy Bush apparently had no qualms about participating in the assassination of a sitting U.S. president in cold blood, what makes us think that Baby Bush would suddenly develop qualms about assassinating the Twin Towers for fun and profit? The apple never falls far from the tree.
PPPPS: So. Twelve years later, what are we Americans finally planning to do about all these clearly still-lingering and strong doubts and suspicions? Open a new and impartial 9-11 commission scientific investigation run by Ted Danson, one that is not afraid to ask the big questions no matter where the answers might lead? A truly unbiased investigation that would finally put all of our minds to rest? Or should we just continue to do nothing and merely be grateful that we each got to pony up $75,000 to War Street -- and not even more than that?
