Inertia would cause the jet fuel to be more prevalent in the opposite side of the building.

Likewise, the towers held up that weight for decades, why would it crumble from top to bottom NOW?

Shock force is harder to handle than a static load. (Just drop a brick on a glass and ask the
glass.)

So keeping all that in mind, what caused the massive beams in the centre of the buildings to fail?

I think you know the answer I would give but I don't expect you to accept it.

What are the pools of molent metal?

All the metal in the building that wasn't steel? Ie the aluminum plane, possibly computer ect, but that's just speculation.

Now, we all know that the governments are far ahead in technology, compared to what we 'regular' peasants know about.

Theres no way of knowing either way.

Is there any device, or technology that can instantly heat metal to the point of melting?
these metal beams were one solid piece from top to bottom, is there some sort of device, or technology using what ever radioactive concepts imaginable
that at what ever time can instantly heat metal from cold to melting in a mere second?

Are we going down the exotic weaponry/space beam route here?

when the time was right you flick the 40-50 switches on these devices at the precise times, so that within seconds from top to bottom the steal
beams holding up the building instantly melt to a point where they collapse and bend like rubber?

I'm no engineer, but I think if that happened you'd be able to see the whole building physically sag from losing it's inner support.
