no, not the rantings of conspiracy theorists but the actual court case where it was proven that the FBI supplied the explosives in what was originally supposed to have been just a protest involving a harmless powder, which you would have found out in 5 mins of research had you taken the time to look.
The World Trade Center bombing was the February 26, 1993 attack in the garage of the New York City World Trade Center. A car bomb was planted by Islamist terrorists in the underground garage below Tower One. It killed six and presaged the September 11, 2001 attacks on the same buildings.
The goal of this attack was to devastate the foundation of the north tower in such a way in that it would collapse onto its twin.
...
Yousef's complex 1300 lb (600 kg) bomb was made of urea pellets, nitroglycerin, sulfuric acid, aluminum azide, magnesium azide, and bottled hydrogen. He added sodium cyanide to the mix as the vapors could go through the ventilation shafts and elevators of the towers. The van that Yousef used had four 20 ft (6 m) long fuses, all covered in surgical tubing. Yousef calculated that the fuse would trigger the bomb in twelve minutes after he would use a cheap cigarette lighter to light the fuse.
He wanted to prevent smoke from escaping the towers, therefore, catching the public eye by poisoning people inside. He foresaw Tower One collapsing onto Tower Two after the blast would occur. The materials to build the bomb cost some 300 United States dollars.

MSNBC is reporting that authorities believe that the backpacks and contents are related to the attacks on 7/7. They are saying that the bombs didn't go off because the explosives were old.
