I find these World Trade Center simulations by Kostack Studio fascinating because they remove the smoke and let you see the collapse much more clearly.

In the real footage, so much is hidden by fire, dust, debris, distance, and chaos that many people come away with the impression that the towers simply dropped straight down into their own footprints.

But that is not really what happened.

These simulations make it much easier to see that the collapse begins in the heavily damaged and fire-weakened region, the upper section starts moving and tilting, and the destruction then propagates downward through the structure.

The towers do not simply disappear vertically into their own footprints. Large portions of the upper structure and exterior are moving outward and to the side as the collapse develops. Much of that motion is simply obscured in the real videos once the enormous debris cloud forms.

And this is also why I find these simulations useful when people describe the collapses as looking like “controlled demolition.”

Strip away the smoke and dust and the resemblance becomes much less convincing.

What you see is a highly asymmetric structural failure beginning around the aircraft-damaged and fire-affected floors, followed by an enormous moving mass progressively overwhelming the structure beneath it. There is tilting, rotation, exterior columns peeling away, debris being thrown far outside the building footprint, and structural failure occurring chaotically as the collapse moves downward.

That is very different from the neat mental image usually implied by “controlled demolition,” where structural supports are deliberately severed in a carefully timed sequence to produce a predetermined collapse.

And importantly, we already know what preceded these collapses.

Both towers suffered massive aircraft-impact damage. Fireproofing was stripped from portions of the structure. Large, uncontrolled fires then burned across multiple floors - for about 56 minutes in the South Tower and about 102 minutes in the North Tower - heating and weakening structural components until collapse initiated.

Once that upper mass began moving, the loads imposed on the floors and structure beneath became vastly greater than anything they had been designed to carry.

The result was progressive collapse.

No, an animation is not proof simply because it looks convincing, and these are not official NIST simulations. They are visualizations built under particular assumptions.

But as visualizations, I think they are extremely useful.

They let you see something the original footage often cannot show clearly: beneath that enormous cloud of smoke and debris was a complicated, violent, asymmetric structural failure - not two buildings neatly dropping straight down into their own footprints.

A note on the simulation: this is not intended to reproduce the collapse down to the exact motion of every beam, floor panel, and fragment of debris. No practical simulation could do that. Its value is in modeling the large-scale structural behavior - how the major sections deform, move, tilt, separate, and progressively fail. Think of it as a visualization of the mechanics and overall collapse behavior, not a frame-by-frame reconstruction of where every piece of steel ultimately landed.

[SK @SparkleKitten39]

The Muslim religion is the fastest-growing religion per capita in the United States, especially among minority races.
Last month I attended a training. During the training session, three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant, and Muslim faiths each presented their beliefs.
I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Muslim gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.
After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers. When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Muslim and asked:
'Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?'
There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, “Nonbelievers"
I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?'
The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.'
He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.'
I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine the Pope commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same to guarantee them a place in heaven!'
The Muslim was speechless.
I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your friend when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question:
Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?'
You could have heard a pin drop.
Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with my way of dealing with the Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs.
In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the US to elect the President.
I think everyone in the U.S. should be required to read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized unless each of us sends it on! This is your chance to make a difference.

[Sean Hannity 🇺🇸 @seanhannity]

Victor Davis Hanson says today’s socialist movement is being led by privileged elites, arguing they push policies for everyone else that they never have to live under themselves:

“It’s predicated on envy. That’s one of the most powerful human emotions. The appeal is the idea that everyone should be equally poor rather than have everyone be better off, even if some people are more successful than others. They’re not thinking about average Americans. This is not a bottom-up phenomenon, Sean. It’s top-down. These are people who are very upper middle class. Bernie Sanders is a millionaire. Mamdani’s family came from the one percent in Uganda that controlled 60 percent of the country’s GDP. He’s a child of privilege. AOC grew up upper middle class. And Ilhan Omar’s financial disclosure claimed a net worth of $30 million. So all of these people are predicated on the idea that the rest of the country are lab rats, and they are exempt from the consequences of their own ideology. And we know that because they like privilege, and they’re accustomed to privilege. So for them, it’s a game.”

Senator John Kennedy on Elon Musk and DOGE exposing USAID, “I'll tell you what Mr. Musk discovered. I find it fascinating. He discovered:

- The American taxpayers are giving money to Afghanistan
- He found that we are giving money to Yemen
- He found that we are giving money to Syria
- He found that the USAID has 10,000 people employees, and every year they give away $40 billion
- He found that the USAID gave money to support electric vehicles in Vietnam. Our money, taxpayer money
- He found that the USAID gave money to a transgender clinic in India. “I didn't know that. I bet you the American people didn't know that”
- He found that USAID gave $1.5 million to a Serbian LGBTQ group, they got $1.5 million to QUOTE, “advanced diversity, equity, inclusion in Serbia's workplaces and business communities”
- They found that USAID spent $164 million to support radical organizations around the world
- They gave $122 million of that to groups aligned with foreign terrorist organizations
- According to this report in Mr. Musk, the USAID has given millions of dollars to quote organizations in Gaza controlled by Hamas
- He found that we gave $2 million, USAID did, for sex changes in Guatemala
- He found that we gave $20 million to produce a new Sesame Street show in Iraq
- He found that we gave $4.5 million of taxpayer money to combat misinformation in Kazakhstan
- He found that we gave $10 million, USAID did, of meals to an al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group called the Nusra Front
- Mr. Musk found that we gave $7.9 million of taxpayer money to a project that would teach Sri Lankan journalists to avoid binary gendered language. (The USAID took 8 million bucks and gave it to a bunch of journalists in Sri Lanka to teach them how to avoid binary gendered language)
- USAID gave $1.5 million to promote LGBT advocacy in Jamaica
- They gave $1.5 million to rebuild the Cuban media ecosystem
- They gave $1.5 million for quote, art for inclusion of people with disabilities in Belarus
- Another $3.9 million for LGBT causes in Macedonia
- $8.3 million for equity and inclusion education in Nepal

Shalom from Japan!

When I first came to faith in Yeshua the Messiah, I was lost in a sea of events and holidays I had never celebrated, with names unfamiliar to me. Easter was one of them.

In fact, the modern Hebrew name for it �� Pascha – was my biggest riddle. Later, I discovered that it is the Greek name for Passover. In my Jewish Israeli mind, it made sense that since the events took place during Passover, they would be connected to that name.

However, when I began to travel in the United States, the name “Easter” kept coming up. “What is this all about?” I asked myself. I went to the books and found that the most commonly cited explanation comes from the 8th-century English monk Bede.

He wrote that:
▪️ The name derives from a pagan Anglo-Saxon goddess called Eostre (or Ostara).
▪️ She was associated with spring, renewal, and fertility.
▪️ The month in which the Christian celebration occurred was called Eosturmonath, named after her.

Over time, when Christianity spread in northern Europe, the celebration of the resurrection adopted the existing local name.

Rabbits and eggs were also later cultural additions to the season, as they represent birth, renewal, and reproduction.

Much of the above may be interesting to see and experience, but to the average Jewish person, adding a new holiday can feel somewhat foreign. So I had to dig deeper, only to discover that there was never any need for a new holiday.

If the purpose is to celebrate Yeshua’s resurrection, then it is already embedded in a feast that was waiting for its fulfillment during that Passover season: the Feast of Firstfruits. It is the third of the seven feasts of the Lord listed in Leviticus 23:9–14.

Verses 11–12, in particular, identify both the timing and the offering:

“He shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted on your behalf; on the day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it. And you shall offer on that day, when you wave the sheaf, a male lamb of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering to the Lord.”

Paul the apostle wrote:

“But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.” (1 Corinthians 15:20)

So here you have it – a perfect fulfillment of an already existing appointed time. No need for new names or additional traditions.

Have a blessed weekend, remembering the real Passover Lamb who was slain and how, on the day after the Sabbath, He became the Firstfruits!

Thankful for His sacrificial death, empowered by His resurrection, and awaiting His return,

Amir

FLASHBACK:

Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to secretly retrieve US made Stinger Missiles that the State Dept had supplied to Ansar al Sharia in Libya WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission.

Sec State Hillary Clinton had brokered the Libya deal through Ambassador Stevens and a Private Arms Dealer named Marc Turi, but some of the shoulder fired Stinger Missiles ended up in Afghanistan where they were used against our own military. On July 25th, 2012, a US Chinook helicopter was downed by one of them. Not destroyed only because the idiot Taliban didn't arm the missile. The helicopter didn't explode, but it had to land and an ordnance team recovered the missile’s serial number which led back to a cache of Stinger Missiles kept in

Qatar by the CIA.

Obama and Hillary were in full panic mode, so Ambassador Stevens was sent to Benghazi to retrieve the rest of the Stinger Missiles. This was a "do-or-die" mission, which explains the Stand Down Orders given to multiple rescue teams during the siege of the US Embassy.

It was the State Dept, NOT the CIA, that supplied the Stinger Missiles to our sworn enemies because Gen. Petraeus at CIA would not approve supplying the deadly missiles due to their potential use against commercial aircraft. So then, Obama threw Gen. Petraeus under the bus when he refused to testify in support of Obama’s phony claim of a “spontaneous uprising caused by a YouTube video that insulted Muslims.”

Obama and Hillary committed TREASON!

THIS is what the investigation is all about, WHY she had a Private Server, (in order to delete the digital evidence), and WHY Obama, two weeks after the attack, told the UN that the attack was the result of the YouTube video, even though everyone KNEW it was not.

Furthermore, the Taliban knew that the administration had aided and abetted the enemy WITHOUT Congressional oversight or permission, so they began pressuring (blackmailing) the Obama Administration to release five Taliban generals being held at Guantanamo.

Bowe Bergdahl was just a useful pawn used to cover the release of the Taliban generals. Everyone knew Bergdahl was a traitor but Obama used Bergdahl’s exchange for the five Taliban generals to cover that Obama was being coerced by the Taliban about the unauthorized Stinger Missile deal.

So we have a traitor as POTUS that is not only corrupt, but compromised, as well and a Sec of State that is a serial liar, who perjured herself multiple times at the Congressional Hearings on Benghazi. Perhaps this is why no military aircraft were called upon for help in Benghazi: because the administration knew that our enemies had Stinger Missiles that, if used to down those planes, would likely be traced back to the CIA cache in Qatar and then to the State Dept’s illegitimate arms deal in Libya.

🧵 TICK-TOCK: The pro-Maduro support wasn't born overnight. Here’s the paper trail between these U.S. organizers and Maduro’s Venezuela. Thank you to all of the researchers who helped me connect the dots.

🗓️ 2003 — Hugo Chávez and Fidel Castro back the Francisco de Miranda Front, a socialist organization that became a part of the global International People’s Assembly @peoplesassembly, creating the backbone of an international “solidarity” apparatus designed to defend the socialist "Bolivarian" project abroad and forge alliances with U.S. groups.

🗓️ 2013 — Nicolás Maduro takes power. The solidarity infrastructure is already in place.

🗓️ 2019 — As Maduro faces international pressure, The People's Forum Manolo De Los Santos organizes a pro-Maduro protest outside Venezuela’s consulate in New York City, physically blocking opposition figures from entering.

🗓️ 2019 — Party for Socialism and Liberation leader Claudia De la Cruz travels to Caracas for an International People’s Assembly conference, urging socialists worldwide to “collectivize” the anti-imperialist fight and promotes the message with #HandsOffVenezuela.

🗓️ 2019 — The People’s Forum hosts Venezuelan Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza in New York City. He demands an end to U.S. sanctions. He urges the audience to protest U.S. actions with the help of The People's Forum.

🗓️ 2019 — After a failed coup attempt, De Los Santos appears on Venezuelan state TV , boasting of organizing U.S. religious leaders to “battle ideas” against U.S. “imperialist aggression.”

🗓️ 2021 — The Singham network's Vijay Prashad and De Los Santos pose with Maduro on election day. Public endorsement. They all pose with thumbs up for “Sovereignty against imperialism.”

🗓️ 2021 — De Los Santos speaks at a Caracas conference livestreamed on Maduro’s own account, holding a manifesto titled “Plan to Save Humanity.”

🗓️ 2022 — De Los Santos returns to Caracas for the International Anti-Fascist Summit, reinforcing operational coordination with these global organizations.

🗓️ 2023-2024 — The same network repeatedly mobilizes “Hands Off Venezuela” protests in the U.S., while Venezuelan flags increasingly appear at unrelated causes, from anti-police protests to anti-Israel rallies.

🗓️ April 2024 — Maduro publicly recognizes De Los Santos at a Bolivarian Alliance conference.

🗓️ Fall 2025 — These same players lead coordinated U.S. protests again erupt in support of Maduro.

🗓️ Jan. 3, 2026 — U.S. military forces capture Maduro. Within minutes, the same network activates with graphics, slogans, protests, like a switch flipped on.

This wasn’t solidarity.

It was a long-running relationship, tested, rehearsed, and ready.
