Gallop’s case relies on virtually all forms of evidence admissible in court, but significantly, on published scientific evidence that residues of these explosives were found in the rubble after the attacks. In its totality the proffered case establishes that the government hypothesis – that the buildings collapsed due to fire in combination with the airplane impacts – is scientifically untenable.

In addition, Ms. Gallop will, through photographic and other physical evidence, as well as the testimony of a multitude of military and civilian survivors, demonstrate the impossibility of her having lived through the attack on the Pentagon if it had taken place as the government and the defendants claim.

Meh, I don't know if I would classify one as worse than the other. At the heart of birfism is racism, which is a terrible stain on this country. But I'd agree with you that truthers are vile and contemptible people.

... But the targets of 9/11 are ordinary people that you can go out on the street and talk to right now, and for them this is no laughing matter.

There is an excellent series of youtube videos created by an anti-truther, for those interested. One by one, the youtuber has deconstructed every single pile of logical poo created by truthers in individual videos. Here's just one example, which addresses the plaintiff's argument in this lawsuit that there was no evidence of plane wreckage in the Pentagon when it was hit while she was inside.

Note that even this category of the truther argument is broken down into several subsets of arguments they raise as they change their goalposts, just like birthers do. This one video responds to the sub-argument within the larger no-plane-in-the-Pentagon argument that addresses what eyewitnesses reported seeing that day:

I think I have more contempt for truthers than for birthers. Even though I know of at least one dear friend of mine who is a truther.

Truthers defile the memory of our many dead.They accuse some of our victims of secretly being perpetrators. Or they deny that some of our victims even existed.

When I was chatting with him much later about why he was doing the tours etc., I delicately brought up whether he'd ever encountered truthers. He said he did, and they upset him, but they were always civil to him and would simply ask him some weird questions, and then leave him alone. They wouldn't argue with him. I thought to myself, "No, of course not, because they don't dare."

The thing is, Barack Obama can mock and laugh at birtherism, even though he's the target. So can we. But the targets of 9/11 are ordinary people that you can go out on the street and talk to right now, and for them this is no laughing matter.

Dr Kate–excellent video! I posted here about 2yrs ago a video that flight 93 with the same flight tail #s was seen in Ohio–that day, pictures showing the passengers being removed at the airport and walked into a building away from the plane–never to be seen or heard from again.

At that time were these passengers given a new identity and are they under govt protection to this day? I often wonder if these passengers have been re-programed to a totally different life….never to know who they really are. Could be my conspiracy theory, but where are they when they were seen getting off that plane at the airport and transported away. That flight 93 never left the airport. I will once again try and locate that video and IF I am able to find it I will repost.

heather—this will really upset you and the readers here…….I have spent several weeks researching the murders of those passengers during one winter with bad weather here.
This is the only explanation that makes sense…and your video would confirm it.
Okay—4 planes???
3 planes were routed to a non-descript airport where all employees there told threat approaching and leave IMMEDIATELY.
All plane passengers of the 3 planes told the country was under attack. One passenger group escorted to east wing….one to west wing…one to interview room…never seeing each other.
Plane 4 is shuttled to loading area of that airport.
After considerable time, the three plane’s passengers were
told they would be flown to a safe haven…first group is escorted to join passengers on plane 4….second group is escorted to join passengers on plane 4….third group is escorted to join passengers on plane 4.
One snag….a stray plane was grounded there…passengers left on plane for hours…one lady saw one plane’s passengers escorted to one of the holding areas.
This lady months later figured it all out with the things being told not jiving with what she saw…which was much. If there was a threat in the sky–if there were attacks taking place right at that time…..why was that plane she saw allowed to leave that airport when they had just been grounded???

Fourth plane??? Pennsylvania…[highlight]missile took it out.[/highlight]

This was planned by evil ..this was planned far in advance…this was planned by CIA, or FBI, Military, or all.

[highlight]This is the only thing that makes sense[/highlight]. No escapes…no communication leaks. No loose ends.

One “Flight 93″ theory: — Some claim that because all four “hijacked” planes each had unusually low numbers of passengers, that the four planes were each flown to one location — (while using specially prepared planes to crash into the “official” targets) — and then all the passengers were placed together on a different plane, that was relabeled “Flight 93″ — the plane that did crash into the ground in Pennsylvania.

[highlight]The planes which hit the WTC towers were high-speed, windowless, military fuel tankers, and the Pentagon was hit by something smaller than a full-sized passenger plane[/highlight]… Yet all passengers on the four planes “disappeared”, never to be seen again — whereas seven or eight of the alleged 19 “middle eastern” hijackers (patsies) later announced they are still very much alive and well, and that their I.D.’s had been stolen prior to Sep. 11, 2001.

Jonathan Kay (Among the Truthers) was a fascinating guest. I highly recommend his book.

It should be required reading in order to get your Obot license. It seems that the Birfer tree has it's roots deep into Truther dirt fed by the waters of DeNile...

"Daryn J. Moran
Why did 9/11 look and sound like demolitions? The molten steel, chemical reaction, thermite?? the deaths of witnesses.??
23 hours ago"

I can't think of anything at the level of repulsiveness and personal harassment of innocent victims that I see from birfers on a daily basis
