There was NO sound of demo charges going off.

Yeah!

Actually yes, ask firefighters from cities. It is one reason they are not allowed to enter most buildings. It does happen all the time. Why are you people so stupid as to never do any research?

I do love a good demolition vid Gen, ty
But what has that got to do with 911?
Those people were taking down buildings using conventional procedures.
No one claims that is the case with 911.
I LOVE how you completely side-step the question he asked about the loud noises heard from very long distances in a controlled demolition.
Also loving the "I'm no demolition expert but..." posts.
Keep dreaming...

WTC 1 & 2, had extensive works carried out on them just a short time prior to 9/11. Office workers were told that the building would be closed, for these works, which caused quite some consternation as the traders and business people were losing money hand over fist.
This is when the buildings were wired for demolition
G. Dubya's brother Jeb, was on the board of directors of the security company tasked with the security of the WTC

Well, here is a video that was released in 2008 that clearly shows the explosions occurring simultaneously on each floor, a fraction of a second before the building crashes down in one fell swoop.
Except once again you are wrong, the windows break AFTER the collapse starts.... so there goes your silly conspiracy theory!

Silverstein's actual words, not 'supposed' words, but actual words, were..
"Well...there has been SO much loss of life and tragedy today, that we thought it would be safer to just PULL THE BUILDING"
THAT is what he said. Not supposedly, but actually.
You do not just 'decided' to pull a building down.
For a start, a controlled demolition of a large building takes weeks, even months to organise, wire up and lay charges, and all the myriad other considerations that need to be done before you can 'pull' (a term in common use in the demolition industry, meaning to bring a building down with controlled explosives)
Secondly, since when has making billions in profit from a huge insurance fraud, for a relatively small investment up front considered ludicrous?
This happens every minute of the hour, every hour of the day, 7 days a week all over the world.
Just not on such a grand scale, although this wouldn't have been the first building to be destroyed in an insurance fraud, and it won't be the last either.
Bottom line is Silverstein, slipped up under pressure and admitted to something he shouldn't have done. Although even this damning admission for this mercenary slug, has been pretty much deflected from mainstream attention.
Then we have the fact that UK TV, during a news segment about the WTC plot, it was being reported from a building overlooking the area of the WTC, that WTC7 had collapsed due to fire and is now laying in ruins and rubble in it's own footprint...the only fly in the ointment of this particular news report was that, the more observant viewers would have and could have seen, quite clearly that in actual fact, WTC7 was still standing and was clearly visible over the reporters left shoulder!!!
It didn't 'fall', until about 30 minutes later.
If you don't see the implications of this, i'd be happy to enlighten you.

There was NO sound of demo charges going off. I dont care how many times you say, see the smoke? See the way it fell? Its a demo! No its not. There wre NO detonations heard prior to any movement.
