Conspiracy thoerists are idiots?

Getting rid of big scyscapers is no easy feat, so what do the experts have to say?

From How stuff works.com

You can demolish a stone wall with a sledgehammer, and it's fairly easy to level a five-story building using excavators and wrecking balls. But when you need to bring down a massive structure, say a 20-story skyscraper, you have to haul out the big guns. Explosive demolition is the preferred method for safely and efficiently demolishing larger structures. When a building is surrounded by other buildings, it may be necessary to "implode" the building, that is, make it collapse down into its footprint.

source



The key phrase is collapse down into its footprint, something which WTC 1,2 and 7 did remarkably well.

Some would say that fire and falling debris caused WTC 7's collapse but I beg to differ. If this was the case, why is there virtually no smoke or flames coming from the building (feel free to post a shot of the towering inferno that was WTC 7) and if falling debris was the culprit, why weren't buildings 6 and 4 also demolished, especially 6 as it is right next to the North Tower?



Take a look at these buildings which were bought down by explosives,



and now take a look at WTC 7 collapse.



For those of you who need a comparison here is a clip of a building collapse using no explosives clip 387kb

Buildings simply do not just fall down into their own footprints. They do it because it was planned that way.

Ok, let me clarify my point. I wouldn't suggest that 'buildings are designed to collapse' as you say. What I would suggest, is that it makes sense to design such a tall building so that should it collapse, it collapses vertically rather than toppling over, minimising damage to surrounding areas and property.


OK so just how would they do that?

(WTC building 7 is the first building of it's size anywhere to have ever been bought down by fire alone)

With overwhelming evidence people still can't accept the truth.
Rather than face up to what really happened we create excuses for it.
We'd rather believe half ass attempts at covering the truth (popular mechanics) and lame theories, than have to face what is really going on.
Because facing the real truth means you might have to re-think your whole belief system.
Because facing the truth might make you have to actually do something about it.
It makes it very hard to get up in the morning and go work for the system, when you know that system is built on lies.
America is in classic denial mode, the truth is staring us in the face but we choose to ignore and deny. You can go down with the ship or wake up and try to make sure the ship don't sink. You don't realize that your support of the government is not a support for America, but a support for corporations. Corporations don't have an elegance to any country, they go where they can make the most profit. They don't care about you or me, only what we can do for them. Corporations are the NWO, the one world government. They'll let America burn and die if they feel it's necessary for their survival.

I do not just pick a something and stick to it.

I have looked at 911 in many diferent ways and come to the same conclusion, "Either the attack was made by the american government or Hijackers really did take control of these planes and destroy two of the most monumental buildings in history but one thing is for sure, you do know that the american government inc. GW knew about this attack a long time before it had taken place and also why was FEMA sent in the day before the attack.

Another thing why was america playing war games on the morning of 911 when they knew fully an attack was close and if thats not enough why does rumsfeld face go bright red and anxious EVERY time a senator or other authority fugures asks a "controversal" question about 911???? And yet another anomoly is ALOT of powerful men got messages before 911 saying "Be very careful traveling around US on the 11th".


Now c'mon you've got ask yourself what is this going on?


Like I said HV, I don't buy the 'official version' of 911 events. There are a lot of unanswered questions and suspicious circumstances, such as the good examples you mention.
I wasn't questioning the nature or pretext of the attacks, I was merely raising a small issue of an engineering/structural nature. This was because if you can take a hypothesis (the towers were pulled), analyse an antithesis (that maybe they weren't pulled), then whatever the outcome, you are nearer to proving what happened.

I couldn't put it any more perfect! Good job.
