The towers were built to withstand multiple air strikes.
Who the heck told you THAT? Calculations were performed for a "what-if" scenario back in the Sixties during the design phase to determine what might happen if a commercial jet hit the towers. The assumption was that it would be a plane having technical and/or visual difficulties in taking off or landing, since the three major NY airports are within ten miles of the WTC. The only reason we know that is that a few old engineers still live from the time of the original construction, but there is no document existing with such calculations.
In the 1960's, there's no reason anyone would have anticipated a direct hit with a fully-fueled jet headon at 500 miles per hour. C'mon now.

That anticipation existed after a plane flew into the Empire State Building many years before.
Look at the photo that has the fireman standing and you'll see a beam sliced sideways which is prime evidence of thermite explosive used.
Also there was molten iron found weeks after 9/11/01 is another piece of evidence of thermite being the culprit.
thermite AKA white phosferous aka willie pete was NOT found...steven jones's claim of RESIDUE of thermite turned out to be the chemical make up of GYPSUM and concrete along with the sulfur dioxide (acid rain)
and as far as the 45' angle cut...wrong again
that was part of the clean up....I was one of the many construction workers that made those cuts
I think the 9/11 Commission report is about as valid as the Warren Commission report.
It would not surprise me if the govt are deliberately covering up certain facts regarding that day.
Govt's have a tendency to be economical with the truth.
they were DESIGNED, to withstand a hit by a 707 with NO FUEL and LOW SPEED
and they DID THEIR JOB, the building stood for time enough for many people to get out
they were not designed or build to take a HIGH SPEED, FULL FUEL 767 hit taking out 6-12 STORIES in the hits
not to mention the damage by the 1975 FIRE, the 1993 attack,(which did MASSIVE damage to the substructure)
HAHAHA. They did not plan for jet fuel? Are you really that stupid? The buildings were built to withstand MULTIPLE 707 hits. It's easy enough to prove real-time on a physical model, not faked computerized models. Just take a steel framed structure structure slated for demolition, put flammables in it, and ram a remote controlled plane into it with twice as much jet fuel. and let it burn all day... it will gradually burn out, and the basic steel structure will remain.

Yes, Government tends to be very Conservative in that regard.
