WHERE and WHEN did Bush Jr declare "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED"???
Actually it crew of the USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN (CVN - 72) which made
and hung the MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner....
en.wikipedia.org...
Navy and administration sources said that though the banner was the Navy's idea, the White House actually made it.
"We took care of the production of it," McClellan said. "We have people to do those things. But the Navy actually put it up."
First of all, WTC 6, which was between WTC 1 and WTC 7, had two holes (a large crater in the center of the building, and a smaller one in the southeast end) that extended the height of the building and massive structural damage yet it did NOT collapse.
Second, diesel fuel will only ignite under severe pressure and/or very high temperatures. That being said, "falling flaming debris" could not have had a high enough temperature to ignite the diesel generators. On the other hand, if the pressure was intense enough the diesel generators would have exploded and we would have seen the building engulfed in flames instead of falling in its footprint.

So the fact that the firefighters saw serious signs of structural integrity failure occurring in the WTC7 throughout the afternoon means nothing to you?
That would be a good guess as to why I did not bring that up. That is a completely different issue and a hand-waving distraction. It is pretty clear that I am addressing two news channels reporting a building falling down that was not hit by a plane. They did not report that it was maybe going to come down, the reported it was down. Unless you want to tell me that firefighters were all reporting the building as already collapsed before it was, I could care less what they saw.
Are you aware there were reports of car-bombs in our nation's Capitol?

Elaborate on what exactly?
What I asked for.
YOU keep mentioning TWO news organizations, yet do not, upon a challenge, NAME them!!!
Of course, we know ONE of them is the BBC, as has been mentioned. WHICH is the other???
Dodge?
AND, you speak of "hand-waving"???????? Sheesh!

"About to collapse" does not turn into "Has already collapsed due to damage from falling debris that weakened the steel frame and caused the entire building to come down."
That was quite a stretch just to insult my reading comprehension. There is nothing wrong with it. You are just really hoping that your theory makes enough sense to stick. I do not buy it. That has nothing to do with reading comprehension. There were two pretty specific reports of the building falling and the exact explanation of why it fell that we would then get after it actually did fall.
I am starting to doubt your reading comprehension as this is twice that you have come after me with something unrelated to what I actually posted about.
Stop responding to me until you can keep up with what I am actually discussing. Your pet theories are nice but not relevant to me. Stop.
WW, how many times in history have two completely separate news organizations reported the same gigantic lie? Your cute little brush off is believable once, but twice? If this is such a common occurrence, I am certain you can find examples all over the place. Thanks in advance.

Stop avoiding the question ! I asked how they rig a building the size of WTC 7 without all of New York knowing it Consider that no building that size was ever demolished by explosives SO HOW WAS IT DONE?

And nobody has addressed the molten metal flowing in the basement after over a month. Pretty much proves something like thermite was used which was found in all the dust samples in the complex.

Avoid the question That proves it was an inside job? No terrorists could have likely had access and it would have taken quite a while. Look at the tenants in the building
Molten metal after a month proves only that there were underground fires. Thermite was not found in the dust samples but technical incompetents were found on the truther sites.

Temperatures of an office fire are not hot enough to melt the steel in the first place. And to keep it melted for a month and a half . Very funny.

Your opinion of "no collapse" is just that.
Suspend your disbelief and describe the difference between a collapse due to structural failure by fire and collapse due to structural failure by demolition. This will provide a diagnostic that will allow examination of the differences.
Then, we can move on to evidence of demolition. As I have stated earlier, evidence does not consist of Youtube videos with overlaid diagrams.
