Didn't the FBI confiscate numerous tapes of local buildings too?

The bit about not toppling over is easily explained. Once the plane hit the building, you end up with a detached part of steel and concrete. The centre-of-gravity (the rotation point) is in the middle of this block. It did try and rotate over, but as soon as soon as that happened, the steel girders on the other side detached. This then let the rest of the block free to fall downwards and it returned to an upright position.
You can see that the transmission mast did go from side to side.

I've felt for years that the OS doesn't exactly pass muster. Some things may be able to be explained, but some things will never make sense. There are a few parts of the OS that none of you have been able to explain away, and you never will.
A. Hijacker's passport being found near the WTC. I'm sorry, but there is no way that a passport could survive even the impact, let alone the subsequent explosion and fire.
B. The Shanksville crash. No large pieces of the aircraft were found, yet debris was found miles away from the crash. How does that happen?
C. The Pentagon crash. How does a passenger jet crash into The Pentagon yet not hit any of the light poles and electric poles directly in front of the hole supposedly created by the plane? Why has no decent footage of the plane been released? You can't pick your nose at the Pentagon without being caught by security cameras at every angle. Why were there no pieces of the plane visible at all? Even with an impact of that magnitude, the tail section should have at least been intact enough to be recognized.
Now, look at the difference in pre-9/11 and post 9/11 US. Whether it was an inside job or not, we'd all have to agree that the country has changed greatly for the worse.
I'm not saying that it was or was not an inside job, I do not know. But it doesn't take a genius to say that an inside job and a cover up are possible, even likely.edit on 22-10-2013 by dave_welch because: Punctuation.
Aw yea, the 85 missing tapes. Well they aren't missing most of them can be see on line here is the list:

1. Said passport could not survivve....?
So how did a video tape, petri dish of worms, notebooks, and other items survive breakup of the Space Shuttle
COLUMBIA in 2003 . It disinergrated at 200,000 ft at speed of Mach 12
The digital video tape, presumably shot by astronaut Laurel Clark, begins around 8:35 a.m., some nine minutes before Columbia fell into the discernible atmosphere 400,000 feet above the Pacific Ocean northwest of Hawaii.
The tape continues for four minutes past "entry interface" and then abruptly ends around 8:48 a.m., four minutes before the first telemetry was received indicating problems in the shuttle's left wing. Sources say no other tape remained on the heavily damaged cassette.
The canisters containing the worms had been found among the wreckage of the shuttle, but the live worms were only discovered this week, when scientists at the Kennedy Space Center finally opened the canisters. They were part of an experiment called BRIC — Biological Research In Canisters — to see how long worms could live in space unattended.
The passport was found in the street just after impact so did not have to survive fire and collapse.....
(Hijacker Satam M. A. al-Suqami's) passport was recovered by NYPD Detective Yuk H. Chin from a male passerby in a business suit, about 30 years old. The passerby left before being identified, while debris was falling from WTC 2. The tower collapsed shortly afterwards. The detective then gave the passport to the FBI on 9/11.
Pieces of mail in the cargo hold were also found in the street....
2. No pieces of United 93 in Shanksville....?

They filled 10 bins like this with debris

As for the "miles away" - some wind blown pieces of paper and insulation were found about mile away
The "miles away" came from an idiot who Mapquested the directions - it gave hime the driving distance
between the locations
3. No pieces of the plane visible...?
Looks like lot of aircraft debris here

As for tail section - aircraft taiI is designed to be as light as possible, unlike wings contains no heavy ribs/spars,
jet engines, fouel tanks, etc
It did leave a scar on the outer facade of the Pentago as it shattered

When the second building went straight down, my emotions went to ice. I thought right then, BULL!
From that moment on I knew 9/11 was a lie. Building fall over, not straight down.

Two facts should make it an open case and proof of false flag attack.....
a)two 110 story buildings dont collapse on their own footprint 45 minutes after localised fires on the upper levels. they had to be demolished with people still in them to create the shock and awe necessary to frame alqueda and to justify the war campaigns and the formation of DHS.
b)there is no serious footage of any airplane hitting the pentagon. what footage does exist is garbled nonsense not worthy of elementary school children looking at it.
then cctv footage from nearby business was confiscated the following days by the feds, which proves they DID NOT WANT any footage of missiles showing.

Who are the real players responsible for engineering a self-serving "war on terror," which was precipitated by the mysterious 9/11 attacks on America?

the absolute masters of stealing peoples identities to commit later crimes is MOSSAD. That doesn't mean MOSSAD were involved, but considering the dancing Israeli's that were caught, questioned and released and later found to have ties to MOSSAD, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest at their involvement.
Personally I believe 9/11 has Mossad's fingerprints all over it.
The Israelis have such an history of being behind false flag events it's scary! Which country benefited the most from 9/11? Israel.

The collapse of the towers look exactly what laws of physics predict. The laws of physics say that all towers after lower support has been breached will fall at the same speed. What other speed would there be?
Could you clarify that a bit? What "lower support" was "breached"?
Are you saying that, according to the laws of physics, highrise buildings can only exist in two states...either static, or in vertical freefall.....?
When your ankle goes out, your torso falls down plenty fast.
