How do you know it was hit by real planes
Look at the videos when the plane first contacts the tower, frame by frame, as it goes into the building, until if finally disappears.
I hope your messing with me.
You are the one coming across like John Gross, head of the NIST investigation
After the planes struck the buildings, but before the buildings collapsed, the cores of both towers consisted of three distinct sections. Above and below the impact floors, the cores consisted of what were essentially two rigid boxes; the steel in these sections was undamaged and had undergone no significant heating. The section between them, however, had sustained significant damage and, though they were not hot enough to melt it, the fires were weakening the structural steel.
As a result, the core columns were slowly being crushed, sustaining plastic and creep deformation from the weight of floors above. As the top section tried to move downward, however, the hat truss redistributed the load to the perimeter columns. Meanwhile, the perimeter columns and floors were also being weakened by the heat of the fires, and as the floors began to sag they pulled the exterior walls inwards. "The ensuing loss in vertical load-carrying capacity was confined to a few storeys but extended over the entire cross section of each tower."[26] In the case of 2 WTC, the eastern face finally buckled, transferring its loads back to the failing core through the hat truss and initiating the collapse. Later, the south wall of 1 WTC buckled in the same way, and with similar consequences.[27]

Well. Good thing I directly invoke the video evidence.

Like what is wrong with you? You have no shame. I call you worst than Al Ciadia and you don't care, just more of the self, no logic nonsense trying to justify yourself in your own deluded world. You arguments are not convincing anyone on these boards anymore.
It is a sad thing to see just how warped ones mind can get. I know the trauma of 9/11 has affected the world. You are not the only one suffering. As you go to sleep each night telling yourself all those sweet lies, reality ain't getting any better.
What kind of world do you really want? Fantasy is nice for a while. Sooner or later reality does hit.

Video evidence? One frame taken out of context...
Yeah, watch the whole video around that scene. Still ugly.
The actual CD systems in your fantasy would not have maintained their integrity, notice I posted SYSTEMS, to actuate to initiate the collapse of WTC 1 and 2 as recorded on video from multiple angles.

You posted this "SYSTEMS", didn't you? I just can't find it.
Re-post to review.
