at least your offering up some kind of possibility, instead of just attacking those who have questions
I wouldn't call it poor construction....building are build to hold under ""normal"" circumstance

no building is normally build to withstand the IMAPCT of another building

what insurance fraud...???

Different buildings, different designs, different circumstances, different behaviors.

You cannot make the same that which is not the same.

well the former Duetsche Bank building held up, as did the Oklahoma Federeral building which suffered far more damage to one of its sides.

its fraud (insurance and other) to permit and facilitate a building with such flaws, even if those flaws are only uncovered under extroidinary circumstances. that is, if your presumed postulate is true.

If you keep asking the same question, you should anticipate receiving the same answer.

Nothing in that paragraph is obviously true. Once again, you demonstrate a nearly complete unfamiliarity with the engineering discipline.

I'm saying that you have no idea what you are talking about.

Perhaps you should argue with what WCH actually says rather than the voices in your own head.

You do not appear to know what "fraud" means.

I don't follow this topic at all ....... but could it be that the building was wired with thermite in anticipation of a demolition in the near future, and that the crash accidentally set it off?
