Huh? The pictures are widely available, including on this conspiracism 
website:

I also might describe the people who support the Democratic Party in 
less flattering terms here than I would if I met them face-to-face.

Again, the incriminating photo is at: http://www.wtc7.net/damageclaims.html

Just because George W. Bush says that Jihadists attacked the WTC and 
the Pentagon, there is no reason to question him.  Bush also believes 
that Hugo Chavez is a menace to US interests in Latin America. Should 
I argue that no, Chavez is really pro-imperialist? (On the other 
hand, blaming Iraq for the 9/11 attack is another matter entirely.) 
There are extensive eyewitness reports on the political evolution of 
Mohammad Atta et al. The notion that this was some kind of ruse by 
people who loved the USA so much that they would kill themselves to 
facilitate a new crusade against Muslim and Arab peoples is just 
(with apologies in advance to people who are sensitive to slurs) crazy.
