Col. George Nelson

Col. George Nelson, U.S. Air Force (ret) – Former U.S. Air Force aircraft accident investigator and airplane parts authority. 34-year Air Force career.

* Essay: "In all my years of direct and indirect participation, I never witnessed nor even heard of an aircraft loss, where the wreckage was accessible, that prevented investigators from finding enough hard evidence to positively identify the make, model, and specific registration number of the aircraft -- and in most cases the precise cause of the accident. ...

The government alleges that four wide-body airliners crashed on the morning of September 11 2001, resulting in the deaths of more than 3,000 human beings, yet not one piece of hard aircraft evidence has been produced in an attempt to positively identify any of the four aircraft. On the contrary, it seems only that all potential evidence was deliberately kept hidden from public view. …

With all the evidence readily available at the Pentagon crash site, any unbiased rational investigator could only conclude that a Boeing 757 did not fly into the Pentagon as alleged. Similarly, with all the evidence available at the Pennsylvania crash site, it was most doubtful that a passenger airliner caused the obvious hole in the ground and certainly not the Boeing 757 as alleged. …

As painful and heartbreaking as was the loss of innocent lives and the lingering health problems of thousands more, a most troublesome and nightmarish probability remains that so many Americans appear to be involved in the most heinous conspiracy in our country's history." [www.physics911.net]

We do not offer theory or point blame. However, we are focused on determining the truth of that fateful day since the United States Government doesn't seem to be very forthcoming with answers."

So I guess the video of the plane hitting the tower was fabricated? It seems so much easier for people to blame the government for all this instead of accepting that an organization of religious zealots did it. The attitude of blame America first is really getting out of control.

Bush has been getting out of control for six years and as far as planes hitting the Towers, if they would have just hit and "pancaked" then yes they would have found everything to identify those planes, but, everything was turned to toxic dust, watch the videos, why does the "pancaking" go up and out, like an explosion sending large pieces of uniformed lenth steel flying way out there. Go ask all the police and firemen that are fighting for their lives and with the same Government that sits around on TV and calls them heroes, you're heroes but we're not going to give you any help without a fight.

When a plane of that size hits a building it will penetrate the building and explode from the inside out. When the building goes down all the rubble will be mixed so there would be no remains of the plane which can be identified, why is that so hard to understand?

The plane and the building got blended together, so we can't identify..... Com'on. We've the best technology in the world that can identify atoms, but not these parts of plane and building. BS. Who's in charge?

"Religious zealots" - Do you mean the Christians, or just every religion.

If you can believe a virgin mother gave birth to her son, who also is his own father (need I embellish more nonsense), but currently you can't believe people who are already affluent, blow up some buildings (killing innocent) for economic gain and future economic gain.

That makes no sense.

Toucan make sure to check out the next religious thing popping up on the gallery, it will help answer some of your "Virgin Mary" questions.

9/11 was an Inside Job

It is the religious zealots of the middle east who are causing all the problems and will be the cause of the next great war.

Well, it was an inside job inasmuch that all that Nixon/Goldwater nation building horseshit came home to roost. Beyond that, I'm not too sure. Maybe a bunch little "conspiracy-lets" that include using nationalistic paranoia and isolationism to co-opt rational discourse. That would enable (they're still there, don't think they're not) the dark doinkuses of War for profit to prop a field day for the military industrial complex. That's not the entire government, just the extreme right wing. The only niggling detail is that it was done right out in the open.

Hide in plain sight conspiracy. I guess it's the new Black in Coups d'Etat.

Of course it worked Adolph and the gang. Just like in that Star Trek episode, why not copy the Titanic complete with the lies?

See:

Leo Strauss

Project for the New American Century

etc.,etc.,etc.

And yes. For the record. I like Big Butts.

If you want to draw a Star Trek parrallel then you should use Star Trek Voyager and the Borg. The Borg assimilate people and technology as does Radical Islam, they convert or destroy people and as they convert people to their beliefs, they also control those people's technology and weapons. Fiction often times parrallels truth.

Just because someone is a retired Colonel is no guarantee they don't have a number of screws loose in the attic, and this fellow is a perfect example.

First off, I doubt he has much experience in aircraft accident investigation. I do, working at AFIP on major crashes like Tenerife & Mt Weather. His claims about identification of specific planes are just plain bull, and he doesn't even seem to be aware that the black boxes WERE found in all four WTC-related sites. I suspect he may have diddled around on a few minor accidents, obviously not as a principal investigator, and he's blowing smoke to fuel his politically-based delusions.

As plenty of aerospace sites will confirm, the engine parts & landing gear clearly visible in media & official photos ARE exactly right for that aircraft, and unless one wishes to conclude that thousands of military people, civilians, fire, police, medical and recovery people on-site are ALL in on the plot, and helped plant all those plane parts, bodies and body parts (photos of which are easily available online, for the morbidly curious), it's pretty obvious that Nelson is full of it.

I could pick his letter to pieces, as could most real pilots or aircraft investigators, but it's hardly worth the trouble. The committed zealots who NEED to believe this nonsense will never be convinced. Rational people will probably smell the fecal odor emanating from Col Nelson's literary "droppings."
