Unfortunately the burden of proof is over to you if you wish to question it.
This is where the flimsy threads snap.

Seriously, though. The "plane fusilage" penetrated at least 6 walls: the outer perimeter wall, the inner perimeter wall (E ring), the D ring (at least 2 walls) and the C ring (another 2). Not to mention the number of inner walls, unknown to me. I feel that's a 'large number' if you keep in mind that these were solid (thick) steel reinforced walls.
As a result, the Pentagon was constructed with a thin limestone facade over a brick infill between reinforced concrete floors, structurally supported by a reinforced concrete beam and column frame. Enough to protect from the elements but not from the potential forces of significant blast events.
This argument is based on a misunderstanding of the Pentagon's design. In fact, the light wells between the C- and D-ring and D- and E-ring are only three stories deep. The first and second stories span the distance between the Pentagon's facade and the punctured C-ring wall, which faces a ground-level courtyard. There are no masonry walls in this space, only load-bearing columns. Thus it would be possible for an aircraft part that breached the facade to travel through this area on the ground floor, miss the columns, and puncture the C-ring wall without having encountering anything more than unsubstantial gypsum walls and furniture in-between.
Jennings died under mysterious circumstances with no public statement on cause of death days before the NIST report was released.

So again, why was it imperative to bring down building 7? Because as planned, and thoughtful as people make this out to be, how would possibly, blatantly obviously, bringing down building 7 be a good idea?

There is no doubt by the evidence and audio visual, witness testimonies all claim it was a controlled collapse not to mention the owner of World Trade Centre complex was witnessed on the phone talking to his insurance carrier telling them he was going to pull building 7 or in his words ,control demolition. Shortly after the order was given they watched the building implode
This thread is not about the Pentagon.

What would they have done if there was no severe damage to building 7, no unchecked fires burning in it and the building was not bulging, creaking and groaning?

I don't need silly advices and nobody needs proof to question anything, even if the lack of proof is a big question itself.
Also, if anybody needs to come up with a story that applys on every little detail of that day just to discuss parts of it, we won't be discussing anything regarding 9/11 at all. You didn't think this through, did you?
This is where the flimsy threads snap.
Actually I just demonstrated why some people wish it would. And now... back to the core of this topic.
One column failed you say? Doesn't look like that, does it?

Again, outright lie. There wasn't severe damage to the building none of which caused directly or indirectly the controlled collapse of World Trade Center 7. NIST report stated this clearly, so maybe reread that before you regurgitate such ignorance.
One of the last survivor/witness out of World trade Center 7 said he heard no groaning or creaking but did hear explosives going off before the collapse of the Twin towers while in building 7
Building 7 was according to sources that overheard the owner with his insurance that he was going to bring down building 7 with controlled demolitions so he cleared the area and pulled building 7 before the fire became out of control due to the lack of firefighters and water. If he didn't do this building 7 would of became a 50 story inferno. The decision was made to pull building 7 and they watched it collapse.

all the this thread proved is that World Trade Center 7 was brought down in a controlled fashion as the owners and evidence shows.

You will have to ask Silverstein how and when he wired the building all the this thread proved is that World Trade Center 7 was brought down in a controlled fashion as the owners and evidence shows. According to NIST it would of took less than 9lbs of explosives to take down building seven at column 79, the one that NIST claimed failed and initiated the progressive collapse but they discount this plausible theory on videos that lacked explosive sounds, but thanks to the freedom of information release blasts can be heard over the 120db range.
