Things you have to explain.
1. How an implosion rig suffered the high speed impacts/explosions and, did not immediately explode/still functioned later.
2. How come the insurance company/FBI came to the conclusion that almost 92% of the wreckage of Flight 93 was recovered from either the hole in the ground or the surrounding land.
3. How come after the spring thaw, there are still very small pieces of airliner found at the Flight 93 crash site.
4. What the actual PNAC document says. To help you the words Pearl Harbor, appear twice.
"Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor".
and
""Absent a rigorous program of experimentation to investigate the nature of the revolution in military affairs as it applies to war at sea, the Navy might face a future Pearl Harbor – as unprepared for war in the post-carrier era as it was unprepared for war at the dawn of the carrier age".
Neither time is it used in reference to starting a war on terror or toppling Hussein, but, in both cases refers to the US military still being better suited for a Cold War slugfest with Russia, rather than the conflicts we were more likely to see.

One, I noticed you dropped “in their own footprint.” Now that was a false argument by you, and you got caught up in the truth movement lie.
Two, you are just ignoring that whole sections of structural steel weighing tons destroyed WTC 3, 4, and 6.
Three. How is a building supposed to fall that was over 95 empty when pulled down only by gravity?

So? your argument is WTC 1 and 2 fell straight down in their own footprints while falling debris destroyed WTC 3,4, and 6 from the top down. Heavily damaged WTC 5. And WTC 7 had a 20 story gash in its side from the towers collapse which was one block away and across the street?
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?

Avery simple argument. So now there is lateral ejection with any CD?
Below is a link that has the video of the inward bowing of WTC 2 that resulted in buckling of the outer columns, and initiated the collapse of the top of the building into the tower below.

There is no evidence of CD. Sorry.

There is more visual evidence of the collapse process than that tiny corner. The other building never showed that inward bowing, it had less than half the weight on the top section and the building came down at the exact same speed.
So the factors that brought down the buildings were incosistant, yet produced consistant results?
I think you are missing a factor that is consistant in both towers that was required for both collapse to occure at consistant speeds. Not free fall, but equal enough that their collapse innitiation had to come from equal forces.

AN ANALYSIS OF THE TIPPING OF THE UPPER SECTION OF WTC 2 By
F.R. Greening
5.0 Summary and Conclusions
The collapse of WTC 2 began with a tilting or rotational motion of the upper section of the Tower about a “hinge” at the 80th floor. This rotational motion, which commenced at a tilt angle 2, was caused by an almost instantaneous multi-column failure that eliminated the structural support on one side of WTC 2 near the impact zone. Once set in motion, the upper block moved with a nearly “free” rotational trajectory of a body pivoting under the constant force of gravity. This behavior was sustained at tilt angles up to about 25. Thereafter the motion of the block changed somewhat although the suggestion that the tilting suddenly stopped is not correct.
What appears to happen is that the tilting upper section was continuously crushed near the 80th floor by its own momentum so that the rotation was no longer that of a rigid body. Eventually the "hinge" at the northeast corner failed and the descending block took on a more vertical motion. Interestingly, once the hinge failed, and the pivot became frictionless, the motion of the center of gravity is predicted to become vertical, causing a shift in the rotational axis. Unfortunately, however, details of this stage of the WTC 2 collapse were obscured by smoke, dust and flying debris.

You do realize the top of WTC 2 started to lean before collapse. Is that false. I think WTC 1 showed signs it would fail, and also had a slight lean.
But once the bowing that cased the leaning changed to buckling, the building was past the point of no return. The columns buckled, and the remaining columns had to fallow suit. Once the vertical columns lost all resistance to uphold load, gravity took over to pull straight down.

I gues saying the buckling was in a narrow band around the circumference of the building in an area relative to the jet impacts can be worded better? How about the buckling occurred in a narrow one to two story band relative to the jet impacts?
Anyway, here is more?

It 's not hard to grasp what I said. The buildings fell straight down while pieces were laterally ejected. What is so hard to understand about that? There were isolated explosive ejections some 60 stories down from the impact zone. If you watch the footage you can see it. Over 100 first responders reported explosions and flashes. There was molten steel at the base.
You can try and play a game of semantics all you want and ignore the actual visual evidence. I'll just keep repeating myself.
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.

A lot of babble and nothing noting the issue i raised. Then again you did offer something consistant... you dont know what fruck your talking about.. again.
