Earlier today, AE911Truth issued a press release through PR Newswire to every news outlet in the country about the emergence of Peter Michael Ketcham, the former NIST employee who is speaking out against his former agency’s World Trade Center investigation. We encourage you to download the release today and share it with everyone you know.
The Story on Peter M. Ketcham, In Case You Missed It
Lo and behold, on page 43 is a startling and extraordinary letter to the editor by a former employee of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Peter Michael Ketcham, who worked at NIST from 1997 until 2011.
In his letter, Mr. Ketcham makes clear that he did not contribute to NIST’s World Trade Center investigation. In fact, it wasn’t until last August that he began reading the NIST WTC reports and watching documentaries challenging NIST’s findings. The more he investigated, he writes, “the more it became apparent that NIST had reached a predetermined conclusion by ignoring, dismissing, and denying the evidence.”
Mr. Ketcham closes his stunning 500-word rebuke by calling upon NIST to “blow the whistle on itself now” before awareness of the “disconnect between the NIST WTC reports and logical reasoning” grows exponentially.
The courageous stand Mr. Ketcham has taken in criticizing the reports issued by his former employer of 14 years is yet another sign of the rapidly increasing skepticism toward the official 9/11 narrative among scientific and technical professionals. No doubt, his emergence will help accelerate the path toward exposing NIST’s WTC reports as false and unscientific.
NEW YORK, Nov. 28, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The following is being issued by Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth: The six-year investigation by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) into the fall of the World Trade Center Towers and nearby Building 7 on Sept. 11, 2001, which found that fires were to blame in all three collapses, was guided by a “pre-determined conclusion,” said a former employee of the agency in a letter published last week in the European Physical Society’s bimonthly magazine, Europhysics News.
Peter Michael Ketcham, who, from 1997 until 2011, worked in NIST’s High Performance Systems and Services Division and later in the Mathematical and Computational Sciences Division, described becoming furious as he read the agency’s reports for the first time earlier this year.
“The NIST I knew,” he wrote, “was intellectually open, non-defensive, and willing to consider competing explanations. The more I investigated, the more apparent it became that NIST had reached a predetermined conclusion by ignoring, dismissing, and denying the evidence.”
Mr. Ketcham’s rebuke of his former employer’s study is the first time anyone with ties to the agency has challenged its conclusion that fires were the cause, although the agency’s two reports have been the subject of intense debate since their release in 2005 and 2008, respectively. A contingent of engineers and other experts, along with a significant segment of the public, have long argued that the buildings’ demise was caused by explosives and not by the airplane crashes.
Europhysics News featured Mr. Ketcham’s letter, as well as a statement from NIST, following the magazine’s August publication of a controversial feature article by two engineers, a physicist, and a senior staff member of the organization Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth (AE911Truth). The article, “15 years later: On the physics of high-rise building collapses,” has been downloaded over 350,000 times, according to the website.
Mr. Ketcham cited the widely read article as an example of the growing awareness of “the disconnect between the NIST WTC reports and logical reasoning.” He ended his letter by calling on NIST to “blow the whistle on itself now while there is still time.”
The former NIST employee has told AE911Truth that he will continue voicing his perspective and advocating publicly for a new investigation. Mr. Ketcham’s letter is on page 43 of Europhysics News’current issue.
