Is the scientific manuscript "Active Thermitic Material Discovered in Dust from the 9/11WTC" valid

Due to the limited word count I cannot post the original missing parts of the letter and have moved it to the comments section Niels harrits line of argument was that as she is so well qualified in nano technology and did not offer comment or any reason to resign over the paper , her resignation was a shocking thing to do as people do not just resign without giving reason , cons argument that she resigned because the paper wasnt ethical has no grounds whatsoever as there is no evidence at all that she resigned for any of those given reasons, in fact Con is making a flat out lie that she resigned due to those reasons. Chain of custody- Well in many extreme circumstances such as a terrorist attack or plane crash or disaster of some type its not always possible that scientists can perform a chain of custody, you wouldnt refute the findings of a plane crash because some of the parts of the plane were found by navy divers for example that would be ludicrous and its clear con is resorting to desperation tactics in his attempt to refute the paper. Any contamination due to any outside material could not include a high tech nano thermite only possibly made in one or two laboratories in the world.Independent scientist mark basille tested a sample of dust independent PART 2- Con did not read the paper properly as one side is Grey and of a different chemical composition to the red layer , the red layer contains the iron oxide intimately mixed with aluminium platelets Fig. (10). This shows a BSE image (a) and XEDS maps (b-f) of the red-layer cross section of a red/gray chip from dust sample 1. The elements Figure 10 shows the relative ammounts of Iron oxide and aluminium using BSE imaging of the red layer. Fig. (11). XEDS spectra showing the elemental compositions of a grouping of thin platelets (a) and of a grouping of whitish particles (b), as seen in the high-magnification images of red layers (see Fig. (8)).Figure 11 shows that the thin platelets are mainly composed of aluminium compared to rest of the red layer . Proving intamite mixing of iron oxide and aluminium platelets.1) What gave you that idea ? Here is XEDS of commercial thermite compare to figure 18 it matches perfectly in ratio http://911research.wtc7.net...2) Because Hematite consists of mainly Fe203 and iron oxide that is why it is similar . - Silicon and Aluminium are consistent in the earths atmosphere and do contaminate minerals . - This is widely known and why the authors of the paper did not rely on one XEDS to prove a case for thermitic material .Why we know its not hematite as -Nanosized platelets of aluminium are intimately mixed with the iron oxide which is inconsistent with naturally occuring hematite. -Elemental aluminium was found after soaking the chips in MEK which is inconsisten with any naturally occuring hematite or aluminium as aluminium is always found naturally in an oxidized state. *Fig. (17). XEDS spectrum obtained at 10 kV from a probe of the region of high aluminum concentration on the MEK-soaked red chip. - After heating the chips , iron microspheres were produced with reduced Iron as shown by the reduction in Oxygen in the XEDS spectrum , this proves a thermitic reaction has taken place as a thermitic reaction reduces iron(III) oxide forming spheres. Con must come up with a reaction that reduces iron(III) oxide forming iron spheres that does not include a thermitic reaction. *Fig. (21) - What is wrong with using XEDS , con must give an accurate answer as to why this test is not preferred in this case.Surface contamination .... 'Fig. (14 ), produced the expected peaks for Fe, Si, Al, O, and C. Other peaks included calcium, sulfur,zinc, chromium and potassium. The occurrence of these elements could be attributed to surface contamination due to the fact that the analysis was performed on the as-collected surface of the red layer.'Source used for all of the above. http://www.benthamscience.com......
