The towers were nuked.
No they weren't. It's just silliness. On the same level of no planes/holograms/fly over. A nuclear weapon does not trigger a top down collapse and makes the site uninhabitable for 50+ years.
There is absolutely no factual evidence to suggest nukes were used on 9/11.
you know it, I know it, all God's children know it...

Could this explosion, prior to the plane's impact, been the result of a tactical nuke?

Ummm...
Yes, I did consider Hiroshima and Nagasaki and how the buildings were destroyed and concluded they bore absolutely no resemblance to each other.
If you differ in opinion please explain. The destruction radius of the nuclear bombs was about a full mile. Not the square acre of the WTC Towers.
I see no similarity.
And Dr. James N. Yamazaki, lead physician of the U.S. Atomic Bomb Medical Team assigned to Nagasaki in 1949, concluded a 43% increase in birth defects compared to control groups who did not experience the radiation. So don't confuse "uninhabitable" with no where else to go.

Much too early to be possible at all for such strong, inner thick core columns
Can you please qualify this statement please.
"the phenomenon that we saw on 9/11 that brought this particular building down was really thermal expansion, which occurs at lower temperatures."
"free fall acceleration can ONLY occur when there is NO STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS BELOW IT"
NCSTAR 1A 3.6] "This free fall drop continues for approximately 8 stories, the distance traveled between t=1.75s and t=4.0s...constant, downward acceleration during this time interval. This acceleration was *9.8m/s^2*, equivalent to the acceleration of gravity."
NICSTAR 1A 4.3.4] Global Collapse..."The entire building above the buckled column region moved downward in a single unit, as observed, completing the global collapse"
NCSTAR1A p.39/130
"the damage from the debris from WTC 1 had little effect on initiating the collapse of WTC 7."
Every single "truther" argument has been countered. Pick one argument and make a thread. Not going to read 10pages of text to only have you change goal posts and ignore facts.

It does not show the line he is asking, so here it is in another form :
"Much too early to be possible at all for such strong, inner thick core columns"

As far as we know, this is the first time in history that a building of more than 15 stories has collapsed, mainly by fire.
This copy of Chapter 5 of FEMA's World Trade Center Building Performance Study is marked up with comments in red, and an animation and illustration, by an anonymous author. It has been posted on the Internet under the title THE FEMA REPORT ON WORLD TRADE CENTER 7 COLLAPSE IS A TOTAL JOKE
@AlienEntity1 : Your timeline on 1:38 is a little bit extended. If he had arrived about 08:55 and got to the 23th floor, it's about 2 minutes with the elevator.Than he couldn't access that anymore, may be another 2 minutes there, then went down +2 mins more. Than he went back with the freight elevator +2 mins. Made some phone calls, probably couldn't reach some people until someone told him to evacuate immediately + about 5 mins. Went down on 6th floor using the stairs, because the power went off + 5 mins.
2+2+2+2+5+5=18.We can ad another 5 mins to be sure and the final result should not be more than 25 mins.
@AlienEntity1 : Jennings specifically says that when he broke out the window, he could see dust and papers everywhere and cars burning. That describes, perfectly, the aftermath of the WTC tower collapses. Perfectly. An explosion that took out the lower 7 floors of WTC7 would also do this.
The only thing I don't get is how Hess and Jennings could have missed the first tower collapsing when they were in the OEM. Shouldn't they have felt it and therefore reported about it?
If you are talking about the first collapsed tower, WTC2, then you may give some thought to the possibility there were demolition noises going on at the same time in Building 7 to pre-weaken the structure. What a great cover for loud explosions than a collapse of a Twin Tower. Just saying...........
"All the time I'm hearing explosions..".
I position, and quite firm on that : There were no explosions!
The following evidence provides inescapable "beyond a reasonable doubt" proof that the south tower plane was a modified military drone aircraft and was not and simply could not possibly have been flight 175, piloted by Marwan al-Shehhi, who as a "pilot", the 9/11 Commission considered no more experienced or as well "trained" than his ex roommate Hani Hanjour of Pentagon fame who had difficulty controlling and flying a single engine Cessna.
9/11 flight 175 was a modified military drone

You know NOTHING about modern nuclear weapons. They are small and the radiation is down to undetectable levels within days. And the nukes were probably on every three to ten floors, set to go off from top to bottom. You didn't read the Prager material, did you? Because the evidence is in the dust and irrefutable. Like I said, Prager will debate all comers, but it might be nice if you read the material first, before making knee-jerk responses.
