9/11 Whitewash Commission co-chair Lee Hamilton made some interesting remarks to Cleveland Free Times, September 6th, 2006 : [...]"You obviously leave an opening for the conspiracy questions," Hamilton notes. "But sometimes you cannot answer every question that is raised. We made a lot of judgments. I don't know if we made all the judgments correctly. The American people demanded from us a kind of airtight evidence. What we ask is that the standard be applied both ways."
Later, without provocation, Hamilton brings up Building 7, a 47-story skyscraper located next to the World Trade Center that caught fire when the towers fell. It housed offices of government agencies, including the Defense Department, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the IRS and the CIA. Its oddly neat collapse — straight down, as if dropping into a hole that suddenly opened in the ground — has led some to argue that it was a controlled demolition intended to bury the secrets of the government's involvement in the terrorist attacks.
"We consulted with expert architects," says Hamilton. "You simply cannot answer every question about why Building 7 collapsed."
Marvin Bush, George W.'s younger brother, worked for the company in charge of security for Building 7 on 9/11.
