For the first time ever, 9/11 family members and advocates are taking legal action against the FBI aimed at forcing the Bureau to assess and report the evidence of the World Trade Center’s explosive demolition as well as other unaddressed 9/11 evidence.
From 2015:
The commission, mandated by Congress to assess the FBI's continuing anti-terror capabilities, said the FBI's 9/11 investigation into a potential broader conspiracy remains open and "active.'' Yet agency Director James Comey, while acknowledging the inquiry was still "alive,'' said there is no evidence so far that unknown others assisted in carrying out the most deadly terrorist assault in American history.
9/11 and the Science
of Controlled Demolitions

WHAT 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.

You can watch the collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7 from the video evidence. There is zero evidence of controlled demolitions.

Everyone knows that nano-thermite planes flew into the buildings that day except where they didn't, like the Pentagon, which was a holographic missile.
And I know this because I know someone who is an aviation expert and they told me it couldn't have been any other way.

I read there was an Israeli art project right before. They did something with the lights on the buildings for a project.
...Which was interesting because it was right where the planes hit.

The four-piece act of Ali Janka, Florian Reither, Tobias Urban and Wolfgang Gantner, Gelitin has mounted their first solo show ‘Gelatin Gelatine Gelintin’ in Hong Kong, which runs from July 7 to August 20 at Galerie Perrotin.
Break
On one side of the gallery hung a series of monotone photographs, documenting the time when they broke into the World Trade Centre to remove a window in order to build a balcony – or did they? One of the collective’s most expertly executed acts, The B-thing (2000) has taken on a mythical quality over the years, owing – not in the least – to the demise of the WWT a year later.

I don't have time for cocky word salad.
Here's your quote...

I just posted a video of John Kerry stating at least 7 was demo-ed.
Your argument is pathetic.

Why would I be talking about the 2 towers?
I'm talking about wtc7.

Can you form an actual example and argument.
Or do you mean impossible as it it would be impossible for controlled demolition systems to survive the jet impacts and fires to initiate the collapse of each twin tower at the sites of the jet impacts.
As to how the demolition was accomplished. That is by taking out the outer core columns every third floor and the corners of the perimeter.
The molten metal found in the rubble was probably from use of thermite in the fire affected areas, used to initiate the collapses. After the collapses started explosives would have been used on the core columns to break the welds to ensure the collapse continued reliably and the sounds would be masked by the collapse itself. Most of the discharges would have been contained within the perimeter and those that weren't would be masked by the debris falling outside. However, it wasn't a perfect job and we do see some ejections.
The amount of explosive needed to provide a concussion powerful enough to break the welds on the core columns is significantly less than that needed to cut through them. These charges could have been tamped to cause most of the energy to go into the column and reduce the noise level.
The arguments made by debunkers like Mark Roberts, that the sound levels would be much higher if explosives were used, are simply bare assertions. Roberts and others like him do not consider methods like tamping and breaking the welds to accomplish the demolition. They don't do the calculations which show it is feasible to minimize the percussive noise to a level consistent with that of the collapsing material, while still generating more than enough force to remove the column by breaking the weld.
