The bottom line is that there were news reports stating that WTC-7 had collapsed before the event took place meaning that the most likely explanation is that the building was brought down in a controlled demolition.

Explain how it fell too bud.
In a CONTROLLED manner when it wasnt even hit, just a few small fires. DO your research on this building you will find it mind bending. |

FACT: Many conspiracy theorists point to FEMA's preliminary report, which said there was relatively light damage to WTC 7 prior to its collapse. With the benefit of more time and resources, NIST researchers now support the working hypothesis that WTC 7 was far more compromised by falling debris than the FEMA report indicated. "The most important thing we found was that there was, in fact, physical damage to the south face of building 7," NIST's Sunder tells PM. "On about a third of the face to the center and to the bottom — approximately 10 stories — about 25 percent of the depth of the building was scooped out." NIST also discovered previously undocumented damage to WTC 7's upper stories and its southwest corner.Contrary to what you claim, the building was hit (by enough debris to "scoop out" a significant portion of the building) and had rather intense and significant fires (not "a few small fires") that were left to burn for hours; weakening the metal in the building's structure.
NIST investigators believe a combination of intense fire and severe structural damage contributed to the collapse, though assigning the exact proportion requires more research. But NIST's analysis suggests the fall of WTC 7 was an example of "progressive collapse," a process in which the failure of parts of a structure ultimately creates strains that cause the entire building to come down. Videos of the fall of WTC 7 show cracks, or "kinks," in the building's facade just before the two penthouses disappeared into the structure, one after the other. The entire building fell in on itself, with the slumping east side of the structure pulling down the west side in a diagonal collapse.
According to NIST, there was one primary reason for the building's failure: In an unusual design, the columns near the visible kinks were carrying exceptionally large loads, roughly 2000 sq. ft. of floor area for each floor. "What our preliminary analysis has shown is that if you take out just one column on one of the lower floors," Sunder notes, "it could cause a vertical progression of collapse so that the entire section comes down."
There are two other possible contributing factors still under investigation: First, trusses on the fifth and seventh floors were designed to transfer loads from one set of columns to another. With columns on the south face apparently damaged, high stresses would likely have been communicated to columns on the building's other faces, thereby exceeding their load-bearing capacities.
Second, a fifth-floor fire burned for up to 7 hours. "There was no firefighting in WTC 7," Sunder says. Investigators believe the fire was fed by tanks of diesel fuel that many tenants used to run emergency generators. Most tanks throughout the building were fairly small, but a generator on the fifth floor was connected to a large tank in the basement via a pressurized line. Says Sunder: "Our current working hypothesis is that this pressurized line was supplying fuel [to the fire] for a long period of time."
WTC 7 might have withstood the physical damage it received, or the fire that burned for hours, but those combined factors — along with the building's unusual construction — were enough to set off the chain-reaction collapse.

More on this here:
You may not like the guy but listen to his GUEST. This is a good one too, despite the language barrier. Watch the entire video. VERY good one with the BBC Reporter himself. In the last video watch what the Italian Demo Expert says and he doesnt even know what building or when it happened at the time he watches this vid. Also if you can find the documentary on this with the Italian Guy and much more I just can't remember the name of it. For pete's sake have an open mind and look at all the details. |

We already have enough false conspiracy theories going on here without this 9/11 bullsh!t. I don't know who's worse, 9/11 "truthers" or you "Obama is a Muslim" fruitcakes. My God, this is so infuriating.

The Madrid, Spain building fire shows steel buildings will stand even after massive fires.
|
| Before 9-11, no modern steel framed building had ever collapsed due to fire. |
| It's simple, flames in a building fire do not melt steel! |
| That's a fact. Prove otherwise. |
|
The melting temperature of aluminum is about 580 C (around 1076 F).
Now the melting temperature of steel (iron+carbon) is 1532 C, or 2790 F. Iron can only be melted in a specially designed blast furnace (where lots of extra oxygen is pumped into the furnace), or by using an arc or induction furnace. The ONLY buildings that have been reported to have collapsed due to fire, were the 3 buildings that fell at free-fall speed, just like controlled demolitions, on 9/11 . Why is that? Doesn't that sound peculiar and strange to you? ![]() |

Again, you are mischaracterizing the reasons given for the collapse. The only people making any claims about steel (or any other metal) melting due to fire in the WTC is the people on your side of the issue on this; the 9/11 Truthers, etc.
The reason given for the WTC collapse (in addition to the severe damage caused by the impacts involved) is that the fire weakened the steel; not that it melted the steel (or other metal). If you are going to disprove an argument, then do so. Don't misrepresent to set up a straw man argument. Your argument also consistently ignores the fact of the severe structural damage caused by the impact of the planes (or the tower collapse in the case of WTC-7). I'll make it simple for you; to prove your case, you need to show that the fire didn't weaken the metal in the load bearing structures involved, that the impacts involved didn't compromise the structural integrity of the buildings, and that those two factors couldn't combine to cause the WTC buildings to collapse. FYI: If you intentionally misrepresent an argument then disprove that argument, you are not proving anything to anyone here, and are only demonstrating a lack of intellectual integrity. ![]() |



burns me up!!!! We are eventually going to turn into a russia if this crap continues....recession is just around the corner...We need to wake up before its too late if it isn't already. btw building 7 was a bank with trillions of dollars in it and it still remains missing with no records...and did you know the people who were in charge of the bank,its money,documents and functions were all related to our president. that explains all the funding needed to set this up and blame it on terrorism. Hmmm can't wait for the next batch of lies and propaganda in anymore coming events!

Explain the pentagon then...why were there no traces of an airplane and if you look at angle the plane took to hit building it was virtually impossible! Why were all video tapes from the surrounding areas confiscated by the feds? Why were there reports of a missile fired from an aircraft or helicopter? Flight 93 why were there no traces of bodies or of the plane? Did anyone know the day of 911 they were running mock drills of flying planes into buildings and thats why everyone was so confused as to if what was taking place real or a drill. why is flight 93 still in operation today? Why were half of the terrorists listed on the reports that flew the planes are still alive? Sorry people but despite what you believe or are forcefed this whole thing was a conspiracy by our own caring government. Weeks prior to 911 why were their black suits in both towers with sections roped off and unaccessable to the public? Why were workers and witnesses threatened over witnessing this and the other events? Is explosives a far fetched idea?? NO!!!!!!!! go to you tube and watch the zeitgeist movie. i remember watching tv on this ugly day and remember all of the reports and truths later covered up after all was said and done. Another fact to consider is that the twin towers were built and designed for such an attack as what happened on this day and you're going to tell me it failed? Especially when the planes hit higher up in the structure,common sense would tell you they would have to hit lower to compromise the main structure for it to collapse. The media and propaganda crap they feed us is just like terrorism to make us believe what they want us to so we can live in fear. This has been going on since the first world war right on thru today with desert storm and now iraq! Why do we support or give money to nations who hate us and contribute to terrorism and openly admit it? That kind of
