Hannity & Colmes Interviews Webster Tarpley - 5/9/2007

Alan Colmes:
The 9/11 conspiracy wingnuts are at it again. This time they’re spinning the words of senator John Kerry to suggest that the former presidential nominee in some way endorses those conspiracy theories.
Webster, you don’t think for one second that John Kerry believes that there was a government conspiracy to bring down the buildings on 9/11? You don’t believe that do you?
I’m not sure he was referring to building 7 sir. He was referring to the fact that after 9/11 and after some buildings were hit, there were buildings in the area that were so destroyed and so damaged that they did have to be brought down.
To claim John Kerry somehow supports your cacameme theories is absolutely insane.
Now you’re getting way off topic, that’s not what we’re talking about.
Stop the cheap shots. You’re making cheap shots now.
You are blaming the United States government, I’m no fan of the Bush Administration, but people like you who want to blame the Bush Administration, the United States government without one scintilla of evidence that they had anything to do with bringing down buildings on 9/11 as if elected officials of this country would cause this kind of damage and hurt to the American people, you are further hurting the families who have suffered enough because of 9/11, have to sit and listen to this garbage you are putting out.
It turns out that a further investigation of that building, it turns out that 25% of the depth of the building was gone. Popular Mechanics did the story on this. A fifth floor fire was burning for 7 hours. Debris from the north tower was all over the place, and the structure of the building because of the weight of the columns, that is what caused it to come down, not some kind of crazy government theory to further hurt the American people.
What would be the motivation Mr. Tarpley? Why would the government do it? What would be behind their thinking?

Sean Hannity:
So you’re saying that after the planes hit the trade center that the government in a controlled fashion went in and then bombed, then loaded......
So you’re saying because it looks like a controlled demolition, do you have any evidence who loaded up that building with explosives? Who loaded up the building with explosives?
You throw out all these allegations but you have no proof, and your conspiracy theories......
Webster if you would take a deep breath I’m going to help educate you here. If you watch the buildings get hit by the planes and bin Laden takes credit for it, now there was an investigation….NIST researchers show the support for this working hypothesis that you’re talking about here, that the building was far more compromised by the falling debris than the FEMA report, that I know you guys refer to often, ever indicated and that it is obvious that this is a result of 9/11. Who do you think did this?
Sir, without your evidence, without you proof, your cacameme theories, there are people who lost loved ones, and you saying that without any evidence is very hurtful and very harmful, and very, frankly you’re living in a paranoid conspiratorial world.

Webster Tarpley:
He just says that there is a controlled demolition being done on World Trade Center 7, which is that building that came down at 5:20 in the afternoon after having been hit by no plane, and it’s several hundred yards away from the twin towers.
I want nothing to do with John Kerry. John Kerry is a dilettante. He is an oligarch. He is a rich elitist, and his wife with her foundations............
It is a classic controlled demolition. You see streamers of smoke, you see the thing collapse in the middle first. It is a classic controlled demolition, just in the way the twin towers were.
You’re dealing with what amounts to a rogue network. It’s the people who brought you the Kennedy assassination, the Gulf of Tonkin, the bombing of Serbia. Their goal is the war of civilizations and that’s what you see. Using this as a premise they have attacked Afghanistan, attacked Iran…they are preparing to attack Iran, they have attacked Iraq.
A controlled demolition, and this is the shallowness of Kerry, if you want to have a controlled demolition it takes at least several days of very careful, painstaking work.
Yes that’s obviously what happened. Dan Rather was able to see that.
This is exactly what the Kean-Hamilton Commission did not do. They should have investigated the rogue network that did this.
Someone who has very capable, controlled demolition expertise, not bin Laden, not al-Qaeda, not some group of psychotic patsies in a cave of Afghanistan, but somebody actually who can do these things. The physical, technical ability to create the observed phenomena.
I commend my book to people’s attention.
The question that was asked in Austin was about World Trade Center 7. No plane.
Which bin Laden? There’s a fat bin Laden. There’s a thin bin Laden. There’s a bin Laden who says he did it. There’s a bin Laden who said he didn’t do it. What you have to remember is that al-Qaeda is the CIA Arab Legion. It was created by Robert Gates, the current secretary of defense.
Sean that’s a demagogue you’re talking with.
The reason why this is important is that Cheney is looking for a pretext to attack Iran, and he’s gonna try to have a new 9/11. That’s the whole point. To understand what the next one is gonna be you’ve got to know what the first one was.
Yes, there’s obviously a troop of actors. It’s a group of patsies that are assembled by U.S. and British intelligence.



Question to U.S. Senator John Kerry 4/22/2007 at Book People in Austin, Texas:
World Trade Center 7 was brought down on September 11th at 5:20 in the evening. The leaseholder of the World Trade Center complex, Larry Silverstein, gave a public interview on PBS in 2002 and he said that they pulled that building, which is a demolition term for intentionally bringing down a building. This man made over $5 billion from those buildings destruction, and I want to know if there was ever a formal investigation into Larry Silverstein, the leaseholder of the World Trade Center complex, and his ties to this entire event?

Kerry’s Response:
I don’t believe there’s been a formal investigation. I haven’t heard that, I don’t know that. I do know that, that wall, I remember, was in danger and I think they made a decision based on the danger that it had of destroying other things that they did it in a controlled fashion. No, he’s part of the construction, reconstruction effort for the memorial and the use of the land etc. There’s been a long tug of war going on in New York. I am not following every aspect of it ‘cause it’s not in my jurisdiction so to speak, but I’ll check on what the story is. I’ll take a look at it, based on what you’ve said. You are the first people anywhere in the country who’ve brought this to my attention.
