Oh, you're VERY welcome.

I have to say, you're tenacious as heck. Despite every single point you've brought up being destroyed as if it'd been put through an industrial shredder, you're still here fighting. I'm not sure where that places you on the intelligence scale, but you're certainly not lacking in spirit. Or entertainment value.

Keep up the good work!

Nice try... If you weren't debunked so many times... you wouldn't be posting any more government apologist rhetoric...

Uh... Yeah... NYC skyscrapers don't get pulverized to powder from gravity alone...

I doubt if the WTC could have been built using the Windsor Tower formed in place concrete technology available in the 1970's.

I do not doubt that the aircraft fuel, serving as a giant match, ignited the mostly petrochemical contents the heated the structure to the point of collapse. I may have my doubts about who knew about the planned assault and why the Bin Laden family was spirited out of the country but not about what caused the fire or the results.

Powerful argument. Can I borrow your tinfoil hat until mine gets delivered?

Nevermind the fire and the flying debris from the collapse of the towers. I'm sure that had nothing to do with it.

We should all raise our right hands and say; I believe everything the government tells me.
I suppose it is better for you and people like you to question things you know nothing at all about.

While I agree with your right to question...I do NOT agree with some of you refuting the FACTS when you are so uninformed.

FACT: The Madrid tower had no Jet fully loaded with fuel crash into it. People do not realize that the incredible weight of the jetliners PLUS the fact that they were fully loaded with jet fuel caused fatal structural damage.

FACT: the jet fuel likely burned out in 10 minutes....but it burned so hot for those 10 minutes that the combustible material in the buildings caught fire and the flames were as intense as they could be.

FACT: one can only speculate how many of the support girders were taken completely out by the impact of the jetliners. But if you realize that a boeing 767 unloaded is app. 351,000 lbs. then maybe you can understand the damage these planes did when it hit the towers at nearly 500 MPH.

FACT: Without doubt the structural damage at the point of impact was severe. This, coupled with the intense fires caused by the jet fuel and the combustible material in the building caused what was left of the steel support girders to weaken and sag under the weight of the floors above. And being that so many of the support columns were taken out on impact...the added stress on the remaining columns caused them to collapse.

FACT: Anyone who watches the closeup video of the towers collapsing can clearly see that the part of the building ABOVE the impact zone comes down on the floors below and causes the pancake effect. The buildings CLEARLY, and IRREFUATABLY collapsed from the top DOWN. There were no wired explosives in the floors below.

What people need to realize is that we were attacked on 9-11. Not by our government..but by a terrorist organization who wished to strike at the United States because of what they felt were the ongoing greed, corruption, and unwanted influence of the USA in the Middle East. The only way our government was complicitous in this attack is by our continuing policy of sticking our noses in where we don't belong.

Those are the simple facts....deal with it.

So which jet hit building SEVEN and caused its collapse?
