Amazing how the claim that sporadic fires and damage on one side or corner could cause such a perfect demolition.
Well done pre rigging the buildings. Without this, the casualties and damages would of been far greater.
Experts agree that this is a professional demolition. No denying this.

Please name the experts (persons who have put their names on demoltion permits and plans, not computer programmers or landscape archtiects) that have stated that Building 7 was a professional demolition.

hmmm....I didn't see a similar list of names of professionals who actually blow up LARGE buildings and have recognizeable companies, in your post....edit on 21/9/11 by TrailGator because: left out a word

More soldiers have died in the Iraq war than died in the Vietnam war.

Yes that is why first responders and other are dieing of cancer.
Yes, I know. It's a shame, because those are the people who should be in greatest health for being decent human beings.
I just don't see the reason for the destruction of the towers as a way to cheaply get rid of the asbestos problem.

I share some Points with the Op. because the Inner-Core of the WTC was very, very small
compare to the Building.
(which wasn't big in the Basement either, only high!)
The Plane cut through the Building in a easy manner (because there was not much Resistance)
and destabilized everything,
the damaged and de-stablized Inner-Core get heated up with expansion of the Steel
and loosed the Stability, finally the Pancake-Effect happened!
But than it + WTC 7.got blown up because of Security Matters
S.& F. because of having Eggs in the Pantsu!edit on 20-9-2011 by Human0815 because: (no reason given)

For years I'd have anyone who would listen to me for more than a few seconds watch the YouTube videos, check out ATS, and read anything they could on the events of 9/11. I then decided to just take some time, and simply research ONE event, ONE happening that had plenty of evidence, plenty of conversation and debate, and ONE part of the official story that I didn't believe, and see if I could make some sense of it.
I could go on and post numerous websites and references and videos, but (hopefully) there are others like me who really don't have time to sift through every single reference on one of those long, drawn out threads, and with the abundance of information, not only on this site, but on the internet, it's easy to find evidence backing up everything I will explain.
Some simple facts, and some flaws in the arguments of truthers:
1. The building was hit by a plane far larger than the original design when the towers were engineered and constructed. To say that they shouldn't have fallen because they were designed to withstand a hit from any plane is a bit ridiculous.
2. The steel columns lost a considerable amount of their strength due to the intense heat cause by the fires inside the building. They wouldn't remain standing, as they're still bolted to the trusses and concrete slabs, and by being weakened by the fire, were simply bent down and snapped by the weight of the collapse.
3. Asking for evidence of 110 floors nicely stacked up at the bottom of the rubble is like asking for a carton of eggs to be intact after being dropped 10 feet onto concrete. Stuff breaks. The farther it falls, and the more it has falling on top of it, the more unrecognizable it's going be after the collapse.
4. Comparing temperature charts to grainy pictures of flames from the fires, and claiming that the fires must have been hot enough to constitute thermite is silly. I can light a match, and it will have several of the colors on those charts, and the flame from my match isn't going to come close to 1100 degrees.
5. Towers 1 and 2 WERE a controlled demolition. Just not in the sense of C4/Thermite/Dynamite charges. The building was weakened, burned, and collapsed. The building had nowhere to go but down. Anyone claiming that the second tower should have "tipped over" because of the angle, is naive at best. It's still being held together by the core columns, and even being weakened, still held the building together. The building simply had too much inertia to go anywhere but straight down.
There are plenty of events that day that are absolutely unexplainable, and we probably will NEVER know exactly why certain things happened. I'm respectful of EVERYONE'S beliefs, because at one time I was convinced.
My wife put up with me talking about this for 3 years. She holds an architecture degree from Arizona State University, and when I told her that I was starting to change my mind, she smiled and said, "I didn't feel like arguing with something you seemed so close minded about, but when I saw the gaping holes in those buildings, I knew they were coming down sooner or later. The impacts were too low, leaving too much weight above them for them to remain standing."
Like I said, I respect everyone's beliefs. Building 7 is a different story. I think some people had a vested interest in seeing that building fall. But to me, WTC1&2 fell because of a perfect storm of structural damage, fire, weakening core columns and too much weight above the damaged floors that couldn't possibly be supported as the structure weakened.
Peace.

They weren't destroyed because of any alleged asbestos problem. They were destroyed because of the "American's aren't afraid of our fake boogeyman" problem. And the "government doesn't have enough dictatorial control" problem. Among others.

Since your facts about this are so wrong, what other facts do you have wrong?
And since you can't get the facts right, maybe your entire hypothosis is wrong?

Does "their" playbook really say that this kind of reverse psychology actually works? I think a third-grader wrote the playbook.
