9/11 Firefighter Eyewitness Testimony - David Ray Griffin and Kevin Ryan

Reports from People Outside WTC 7: NIST continued this approach in its WTC 7 report. There had been several credible reports of explosions. A reporter for the New York Daily News, said:

[T]here was a rumble. The building's top row of windows popped out. Then all the windows on the thirty-ninth floor popped out. Then the thirty-eighth floor. Pop! Pop! Pop! was all you heard until the building sunk into a rising cloud of gray. [41]

NYPD officer Craig Bartmer said:

I was real close to Building 7 when it fell down. . . . [A]ll of a sudden. . . I looked up, and . . . [t]he thing started pealing in on itself. . . . I started running . . . and the whole time you're hearing "boom, boom, boom, boom, boom." [42]

Reports from Hess and Jennings from Inside WTC 7: Besides ignoring these and other reports of explosions made by people outside Building 7, NIST distorted the testimony of two highly credible men who were inside: Michael Hess, who was New York City's corporation counsel, and Barry Jennings, the deputy director of the Emergency Services Department of the New York City Housing Authority.




Immediately after the North Tower was struck that morning, both men followed the instruction that, whenever there was an emergency, they were to meet Major Giuliani at his Emergency Management Center on the 23rd floor of Building 7. The North Tower was struck at 8:46, so they would have arrived at about 9:00. They found, however, that everyone had left. Calling to find out what they should do, Jennings was told to get out of the building immediately. So, finding that the elevator would not work (the electricity had evidently been knocked out at 9:03 by the airplane strike on the South Tower), they started running down the stairs. But when they got to the 6th floor, there was a huge explosion, which blew the landing out from under them and blocked their path. They went back up to the 8th floor, broke a window, and signaled for help.




Firemen came to rescue them, Jennings said, but then ran away. Coming back after a while, the firemen again started to rescue them, but then ran away again. They had to run away the first time, Jennings explained, because of the collapse of the South Tower, which occurred at 9:59, and the second time because of the North Tower collapse, which occurred at 10:28. On that basis, Jennings told Dylan Avery in an interview in 2007, he knew that, when that big explosion occurred, "both buildings were still standing." Finally, when the firemen returned after the second tower collapsed, Hess and Jennings were rescued.




This must have been sometime between 11:00 and 11:30, because at 11:57, Hess gave an on-the-street interview several blocks away. Jennings also gave an on-the-street interview. Both men reported that they had been trapped for some time -- Hess specified "about an hour and a half."




This story obviously was very threatening to NIST. It was going to claim that, when Building 7 came down at 5:21 that afternoon, it did so solely because of fires. There were no explosives to help things along.




But here were two city officials reporting that a big explosion had gone off pretty early in the morning, evidently before 9:30. In his interview for Dylan Avery, moreover, Jennings said that the big explosion that trapped them was simply the first of many. He also said that when the firefighter took them down to the lobby, he saw that it had been totally destroyed -- it was, he said, "total ruins, total ruins." Jennings also that, when he and the firefighter were walking through this lobby, they were "stepping over people." [43]




Jennings's testimony contradicted the official story, according to which there were no explosions in WTC 7 and no one was killed in this building. What would NIST do?




NIST's Treatment of the Hess-Jennings Testimony: NIST simply ignored Jennings' report about the lobby and, with regard to the time that Hess and Jennings got trapped, followed the line that had taken by Rudy Giuliani in a 2002 book, according to which the event that Hess and Jennings took to be an explosion within WTC 7 was simply the impact of debris from the collapse of the North Tower.




But that collapse did not occur until 10:28, whereas the event described by Hess and Jennings had occurred at least an hour earlier.




Also, Jennings said that the South Tower as well as the North Tower was still standing when the event he called an explosion occurred, and that is surely what he told NIST when it interviewed him (as well as Hess) in the Spring of 2004.

Our justice system, in part, relies heavily on eyewitness testimony. Yet, in the case of 9/11, it is ignored totally...

Heres to one day seeing the whole Bush administration hang for this crime!

[EndWesternTyranny]

@zenoist2 just like the JFK assassination, which was also an inside job

[lovefrankiephuck]

Inside job?yes. The dark cabal satanist scuminatti are on their way out.

The fema camps they have built for WE THE PEOPLE??? they, the scuminatti will occupy themselves. NO NEW WORLD ORDER.

The end of the old world order,and a new beginning for WE THE PEOPLE.

[CamillioD]

@xthisangelfell79x + the tragedy OKC bombing.

TouTube: 'A Noble Lie'

[CamillioD]

Forced resignation of Mr. Barak Obama, before any new war with Iran, an immediate forensic investigation of the tragedy 9/11 bombing and the tragedy OKC bombing.

The failure to investigate OKC Bombing + 9/11 has bankrupted America's 99.9% and its allies

EVERYONE *NEEDS* TO KNOW THAT 9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB!

[Chidanandaji]

@HamBoneTea  and it all worked didn't it....two illegal wars later....body groping at the airport, hassles at the Canadian border, Americans voting for war on Middle East, CIA controls Afghan opium and lithium, US and NATO control oil fields....It is called false flag terrorism. Just create the terror and then blame it on the scape goat enemy of choice...to justify warfare on the nation of choice. That is why it is ''false flag'' terrorism.

[HamBoneTea]

@Chidanandaji why the fuck would the government let a scary ass osama-lama terrorist be played on stations all over the u.s, just to scare the shit out of people, that shit is such a cover up F*(^ THEM.

[Chidanandaji]

Osama Bin Laden was reported by CNN, FOX, the Telegraph, Guardian and the Pentagon to have died in December of 2001. Despite his death, we were shown 'doctored' and 'faked' videos of Bin Laden thereafter. Recently, Americans were fooled again with a completely orchestrated 'second' killing of Bin Laden in May of 2011. Fabrication built upon fabrication....resulting in a completely misinformed American public.

Google search ''Stories by Bill Woollam" then go to 'Bogus Bin Laden Story'
