Scott Douglas Jacobsen: This would be a good one. This might be the last one. 9/11 conspiracy theories. The idea that, as long as terrified patient Al Qaeda that by someone, Laden did not execute a point with 19 men in Saudi Arabia, work and the Pentagon and the capital.
Rick Rosner: So I don’t buy any of that. I believe it was Al Qaeda with 19 guys. One guy missed the flight so that it would have been 20, but four guys hijacked one plane. I buy the whole thing. I don’t buy that jet fuel doesn’t burn hot enough to take down the building. I have issues with some story aspects, but they’re not around that. They’re not conspiracy issues. My main issue is that the World Trade Center, the old Twin Towers, was built without zoning requirements and a building code. It fell into an area where New York couldn’t regulate the buildings because PATH, New Jersey Transit, owned it. Under the old World Trade, a giant train station, subway, and other trains were going under the Hudson River to Jersey.
Somehow, some entity owned that property, which may be connected to Jersey. So, it was a separate building code jurisdiction. Nobody had jurisdiction over it. Had it been subject to New York City building codes, a building that big would have had six emergency staircases in each building. They said that they would have had to have minimum distances between the staircases. They only had three and were within 50 feet of each other. They wanted to be able to sell these floors as big, beautiful, uninterrupted spaces. If you ran a stock brokerage, you could open this immense space, 200 by 200 feet.
When the planes came through, the only three staircases, which were only 50 feet apart, were severed in each tower. The people above those points had no chance.
Not to mention the NYPD and fire department had crappy radio communication. They never figured out how to get decent radio walkie-talkie signals to work in those buildings. So when they had half an hour between one building collapsing and the next building collapsing, they had no way of telling the 343 police officers and firefighters in the building that hadn’t collapsed to get the fuck out. Their radios didn’t work. They never worked. They never fixed that. That kind of shit is bullshit. Those first responders were more than 10% of the casualties. So that’s horseshit. Then what happened to the people who worked in the rubble where it took Jon Stewart pushing legislation for a decade to get them any insurance or treatment for all the different illnesses, including a ton of different cancers, they got working in these brutal dust piles. So yes, I have plenty of issues with 9/11. And one more fucking issue is Osama bin Laden, I think, would have been delighted with Trump. I feel he would look at what the US has become and be like, yes, we did it, everyone, we did it, we took down the US, we turned it into a shithole. But anyway, none of these issues make me distrust the standard narrative of fucking losers, mostly from Saudi Arabia, being recruited to fly planes into the buildings.
Jacobsen: All right.
Rosner: All right. So let’s wrap it up.
