Q. And have you concluded that that is the only possible bomb that could have caused this kind of damage based on everything you know or are there other possibilities as well? A. Within the World Trade Center? Q. Yes. A. There was only one bomb in the World Trade Center. Q. No, no. That, I understand to be your testimony. What I'm saying is was whatever caused it just this one possibility or were there other possible bombs as well, not two bombs or three bombs, but you described a bomb? A. Yes, okay. Q. Could it have been another kind of bomb or no? A. Not likely. As I said, the bulk of the explosive material could have been urea nitrate with other things such as ammonium nitrate dynamite and certainly there was some type of initiator, but the bulk of the explosive was, in my opinion, urea nitrate. Q. I guess it's the could have been part that gives me pause. THE COURT: Could it be ANFO [ammonium nitrate and fuel oil]?
(2) Analysis MR. CAMPRIELLO: I didn't hear you, Judge. THE COURT: Could it be ANFO? THE WITNESS: Yes, it could be. THE COURT: In other words, there could have been an ANFO bomb sitting there, and if that exploded, it would have caused the same kind of damage? THE WITNESS: That's correct. (a) Direct Examination First, Williams testified on direct examination that because of that type of damage . . . the type of explosives that fit in that bracket are very limited. Assuming the VOD testified to at the Salameh trial--14,000-15,500 feet per second--there are many different explosives that fit in that bracket. Using the VOD testified to in the Rahman trial--12,000-16,000 feet per second--there are even more that qualify. Williams testified in his OIG interview that a lot of different explosives meet the 14,000-15,500 feet per second VOD range. For example, the 1980 Dupont Blasters' Handbook ( Dupont ) lists six prill products, four water gels, and two dynamites with a VOD within the 14,000-15,500 feet per second range, and more within the 12,000-16,000 feet per second range. The 1968 Canadian Industries Limited Blasters' Handbook lists three products with velocities in the 14,000-15,500 feet per second range. The 1995 Dyno Nobel Inc. Explosives Engineers Guide ( Dyno ) lists twenty-seven products with velocities in the 14,000-15,500 range. Williams' testimony about the very limited type of explosives that fit in the 14,000-15,500 feet per second bracket was literally correct, because the many commercial products within that range fall into certain
