How was the media able to announce that building 7 collapsed 20 minutes before the actual collapse?
WW, how many times in history have two completely separate news organizations reported the same gigantic lie?
WHERE and WHEN did Bush Jr declare "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"???
They took building seven down so what about the others? That building had to be rigged ahead of time.
The store was built in 12 separate stages, the first in 1911 and the last in 1946. The complex had two retail basements and 23 above grade retail floors, including mezzanines. Two additional basements and six upper stories in a tower, provided storage and mechanical support for the 2.2 million square foot building. In all there were 33 levels in the structure.
Under CDI direction, Homrich/NASDI’s 21 man crew needed three months to investigate the complex and four months to complete preparations for CDI’s implosion design. During that period, the lower two basements of the structure were filled with engineered fill and the perimeter basement walls bermed to 1st basement level with soil to support perimeter walls which would surely have failed under soil and hydrostatic loads once the horizontal support of the Hudson’s internal structure was removed by the implosion.
CDI’s 12 person loading crew took twenty four days to place 4,118 separate charges in 1,100 locations on columns on nine levels of the complex. Over 36,000 ft of detonating cord and 4,512 non-electric delay elements were installed in CDI’s implosion initiation system, some to create the 36 primary implosion sequence and another 216 micro-delays to keep down the detonation overpressure from the 2,728 lb of explosives which would be detonated during the demolition.

Please elaborate.
We all want to know what YOU 'know'.
(OH.....and IF you wish to find examples of news sources attempting to "out-scoop" the competition, swell....I think there are plenty to choose from....)

So the fact that the firefighters saw serious signs of structural integrity failure occurring in the WTC7 throughout the afternoon means nothing to you?
Elaborate on what exactly?

Was the fire department, or at the very least the chief, in on the plot? Was Hayden aware that building 7 was rigged with explosives? Or was he made aware of this X time before 7 was pulled?

Building 7 WAS HIT!!!! Not by an airplane, in that you are correct....it sustained collateral damge rom FALLING DEBRIS from a WTC Tower, as IT collapsed!!!
MAJOR impact damage, from falling flaming debris from WTC Tower, and DIESEL fuel, under pressure, being sprayed around....gee....surprise!!!!

Elaborate on what exactly? What are you confused about? Two different news stations reported the building down before it went. I am not sure that I can make it any more simple than that.
MAJOR damage...in FACT, other WTC buildings in the vicinity, WTC 3 and 5 were also fatally damaged, so as to be UNSALVAGABLE!!!
No, they did not collapse, because as I usnderstand it, they had different designs, and suffered differnt levels of damage....but WTC 7 ALSO had, within the building (and just ignoring, for the moment, the unique design, and how the load was distrubuted above the large, open agtrium in the design) DIESEL GENERATORS, situated throught the structure, that were in place to provide back-up power in the event of electrical power interruptions from the city-supplied grid....AND these were fed by a PRESSURIZED diesel fuel pipeline.
Hmmmmmm.........
