Read her book "Classified Woman", and speculate to your heart's content.
What she saw in her months with the FBI makes Comey look like an altar boy.

I choose reality. Maybe you will keep choosing to believe in a fantasy.
Funny and ironic from an individual that creates fantasy from impossible technology? Can’t explain how a hologram would caused an inward explosion equal to a 250,000 pound jet carrying 8,000 gallons of fuel resulting in measurable seismic activity 25 miles away? The explosion resulting in jet wreckage in the streets and on roof tops. The aftermath documented in photos, documented injuries of people being struck by jet and building wreckage, and first responders’s accounts. The wreckage recovered, and placed on display. Then you have the DNA and personal effects of people aboard flight 175? Which you tried to falsely claim was only dust samples when engines, IDs, and bone fragments were recovered.
Just keep killing your credibility.....
What do you know about "credibility"?

Aren’t you the guy that claimed the outer columns of the WTC carried no load....
And kept wanting proof of fire damage of the steel, but then would not define what you meant by fire damage? While the real argument was the fires didn’t burn the steel I guess, because you never would define fire damage? When the real argument is the scientific fact as steel heats up, its ability to hold load decreases? It becomes increasingly pliable. And thermal stress can cause loads to shift. And floor trusses bent out of shape can cause extraordinary stain when they cool and contract. And it is documented the floor connects sheared and / or stretch. They were not cut.

The steel didn't heat up enough to lose strength, that's the whole point here.
How is that not absolutely clear to you, yet?
They considered only two causes of collapse - damage and/or fires.
They ruled out damage alone caused collapse, since the structures withstood the damage.

I wonder what the probability is of 3 buildings collapsing exactly into their own footprint, not by demolition, in one day.

I guess greatly increases when two 1000 foot towers are hit by separate jets, collapsing outside their footprints to destroy about 13 buildings total. Any more out of context and false arguments?

They collapsed into their own footprints. You can clearly see them fall straight down. Then several hours later, a 3rd one never hit by a jet did the same.
How can you so blatantly ignore what your eyes can see?

Other buildings
Many of the surrounding buildings were also either damaged or destroyed as the towers fell. 5 WTC endured a large fire and a partial collapse of its steel structure and was torn down. Other buildings destroyed include St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, Marriott World Trade Center (Marriott Hotel 3 WTC), South Plaza (4 WTC), and U.S. Customs (6 WTC). The World Financial Center buildings, 90 West Street, and 130 Cedar Street suffered fires. The Deutsche Bank Building, the Verizon Building, and World Financial Center 3 had impact damage from the towers' collapse, as did 90 West Street. One Liberty Plaza survived structurally intact but sustained surface damage including shattered windows. 30 West Broadway was damaged by the collapse of 7 WTC. The Deutsche Bank Building, which was covered in a large black "shroud" after September 11 to cover the building's damage, was deconstructed because of water, mold, and other severe damage caused by the neighboring towers' collapse.[42][43]

And didn't all three collapse at free-fall or near free-fall acceleration. WTC7 seems like an obvious controlled demolition to me regardless of what NIST say.
9/11 and the Science
of Controlled Demolitions
www.skeptic.com...
3WHAT ABOUT THE ALMOST FREE-FALL COLLAPSE OF THE TWIN TOWERS? The key is the “almost” modifier. If I told you I was making almost $100,000 and you found out I was making only $67,000, you’d say I was exaggerating. So stop exaggerating the collapse speed of the WTC Towers! The 80,000 tons of structural steel slowed down the collapses of the Twin Towers to about ⅔ (two-thirds) of free-fall.3 And the core collapsed at about 40% of free-fall speed, coming down last.4 According to Richard Gage: “To bring a building symmetrically down, what we have to do is remove the core columns.” But on 9/11 the stronger core columns came down last, which violates this supposed most fundamental rule of controlled demolition.

Thats wack! Because every degree steel heats up, it increasingly looses its ability to hold up load.
The long floor tresses with no mid span concrete supports made the towers more vulnerable.
Does steel not expand when heated too?
Why does your believe involve ignoring simple truths?
As footage clearly shows, concrete is ejected horizontally as the buildings collapse.
They collapsed into their own footprints

Captain Chris Boyle
Engine 94 - 18 years
Boyle: ...on the north and east side of 7 it didn’t look like there was any damage at all, but then you looked on the south side of 7 there had to be a hole 20 stories tall in the building, with fire on several floors. Debris was falling down on the building and it didn’t look good.
Firehouse: When you looked at the south side, how close were you to the base of that side?
Boyle: I was standing right next to the building, probably right next to it.
Firehouse: When you had fire on the 20 floors, was it in one window or many?
Boyle: There was a huge gaping hole and it was scattered throughout there. It was a huge hole. I would say it was probably about a third of it, right in the middle of it. And so after Visconti came down and said nobody goes in 7, we said all right, we’ll head back to the command post. We lost touch with him. I never saw him again that day.
