The frightening link between the 9-11 toxic cloud and cancer

http://www.villagevoice.com/news/0648,lombardi,75156,2.html

This is not the story of rescue and recovery workers at ground zero getting sick with respiratory illnesses from their exposure; you have read those stories, and you have heard those cases.

This is the story of 9-11 and cancer.
To date, 75 recovery workers on or around what is now known as "the Pile"—the rubble that remained after the World Trade Center towers collapsed on the morning of September 11, 2001—have been diagnosed with blood cell cancers that a half-dozen top doctors and epidemiologists have confirmed as having been likely caused by that exposure.

Those 75 cases have come to light in joint-action lawsuits filed against New York City on behalf of at least 8,500 recovery workers who suffer from various forms of lung illnesses and respiratory diseases—and suggest a pattern too distinct to ignore. While some cancers take years, if not decades, to develop, the blood cancers in otherwise healthy and young individuals represent a pattern that experts believe will likely prove to be more than circumstantial. The suits seek to prove that these 8,500 workers—approximately 20 percent of the total estimated recovery force that cleared the rubble from ground zero—all suffer from the debilitating effects of those events.

The basis for the suits stems from the plaintiffs' argument that the government—in a desperate attempt to revive downtown in the wake of the catastrophic events on 9-11—failed to protect workers from cancer-causing benzene, dioxin, and other hazardous chemicals that permeated the air for months. Officials made these failures worse by falsely reassuring New Yorkers that they faced no long-term dangers from exposure to the air lingering over ground zero.

"We are very encouraged that the results from our monitoring of air-quality and drinking-water conditions in both New York and near the Pentagon show that the public in these areas is not being exposed to excessive levels of asbestos or other harmful substances," Christine Todd Whitman, the then administrator of the EPA, told the citizens of New York City in a press release on September 18—only seven days after the attacks. "Given the scope of the tragedy from last week, I am glad to reassure the people of New York . . . that their air is safe to breathe and the water is safe to drink."

1. alpha radiation short term fallout from the nukes

The thermite/thermate hypothesis is absurd,
the towers were brought down by next generation micro-nuclear weapons

Blood disorders are the result of alpha radiation exposure, yes, and
all the illnesses are coming on too soon as they are disorders of
a different nature than from inhaled fallout particles.

2. What was the cause of the 9/11 toxic cloud? Where did it come from?

The building itself, the bodies?

3. The building

It was loaded with asbestos. A few years earlier there was a figure tossed around about how much it would cost to remove it all . The amount was more than the building was worth.

Toss in all the pulverized concrete, chemicals in the building,toxic materials from computers and such and you have yourself one hell of a toxic soup.

Bodies ,what bodies? They couldnt find anything bigger than half a telephone pad. No desks no computers, no nothing, just steel and finely pulverized concrete.

4. That is why they (the towers) were selected as the target.

The lawsuits that would have resulted in a normal demolition were too potentially expensive.
