An Israeli Boeing 747 cargo plane has crashed in the outskirts of Amsterdam in the Netherlands, setting two blocks of flats on fire and killing dozens of people.
The El Al jumbo jet came down shortly after take-off, at 1830 local time, spilling burning fuel over a wide area in the suburb of Bijlmermeer, to the south of the city.
Amsterdam city officials say 50 flats in the nine-storey blocks were hit directly by the falling plane. Nearly 40 bodies have been recovered so far.
The Crash
At 9:49 a.m., the ten-ton, B-25 bomber smashed into the north side of the Empire State Building. The majority of the plane hit the 79th floor, creating a hole in the building eighteen feet wide and twenty feet high. The plane's high-octane fuel exploded, hurtling flames down the side of the building and inside through hallways and stairwells all the way down to the 75th floor.
TEHRAN (Reuters) - A military plane carrying dozens of journalists crashed into a Tehran apartment block and exploded on Tuesday, killing at least 116 people, officials said.
All 94 passengers and crew on the C-130 transport plane died, the Interior Ministry said. Several children, at home because schools were closed due to a smog alert in the capital, were among the dead in the building, witnesses added.

Those buildings did explode from the inside.
Because those jets were guess where. ding ding ding. Inside the buildings.
Except of course for number seven. That one just had two one thousand foot buildings dropped on it. I don't see why that would cause it to fall.
Look. On my personal opinion, Truthers need to forget the Idea of any explosive other than the jet and focus only on the papertrail leading to the conspirators responsible for the attacks. Whoever you feel they are.
Peace in the Middle East.
President.

There were definitely explosives used on 9-11, because the building fell on its own footprint, regardless of what "collided" into the upper floors of the WTC!
There is no way a buiding could implode in such a fashion unless perfectly timed explosives were used on the floors/ceilings/structure beneath the impact area.

Are you nuts, those 2 buildings were no where near 7 and they didn't even HIT building 7. Where do you get your info?

Dude. The top part of that building was thirty stories. the bottom part was seventy stories. the jet took out ten floors instantly and burned the entire center of the rest of the building.

Now. the thirty story part (top) is the equivant to a thirty story building. Every city has one. I'm not sure how much that must weigh. but if you drop a thirty story building from seven hundred feet in the air onto a seventy story building (bottom) the seventy story building is going to crumble. Everytime.

first- the weak side of that building was the middle; blown away by a jetcrash.
second - gravity only works in one direction. straight down.

But this thread posits that that is not the case. That significant amounts of the buildings fell outside of their footprint.

Once again - this thread spends significant amounts of time suggesting that it didn't implode. It exploded.
Which is it?
This is getting strange now. Some years ago it was
-- 90 per cent inside the footprint, squibs, looks like CD, etc, apparently proves demolition
Now it's "you can clearly see the building exploding outwards from huge bombs, doesn't resemble CD, squibs ignored because bombs were in core".
We were told for years that the demolitions of the towers looked like classic controlled demolition. Yet none of those photos looks like that. And somehow this is still evidence of bombs?
You're debunking each other.

A jet cannot take out a steel core just by impacting it.
And jet fuel could not get hot enough to then melt or otherwise deform the structure.
Dropping 30 stories 700 feet on to the remaining 70 stories? Were those 30 stories floating in the air?

Your first point is wrong and the second assumes perfectly timed explosives were used, otherwise there would be a toppling-over effect at any given weak point.

-A jet cannot take out a steel core just by impact. Why not?
-jet fuel could not get hot enough to deform the core?
The fire in that building looked pretty damned hot to me. Why don't you tell me how hot fire HAS to be to affect steel then.
and then see how hot jet engines burn.
-If the weak side was not in the middle, where was the weak side?
-Oh, and those top thirty stories were attached to a building until the building got knocked out from underneath it. How long did you expect it to hang over that burning jet?
