Since none of WTC towers collapsed into a "clean pile, laying in its own footprint", we can then rule out controlled demolition. ... and that's not how demolition explosives work.
No "proof" has ever been offered...only "official" BS. I was looking for something a little more........realistic.
Well, it's kinda like Iraq telling the UN and the world "There is no bombing or invasion going on", while the bombs shook the buildings they broadcast from.. Not your problem though, I know. Just sayin,' I choose truth, and "officially" there isn't much.
The truth is there for anybody that wants to actually look (and hint hint: It AIN'T in any "official" report).
You keep saying "official" as if we even need to rely on government sources to determine that the generally accepted account of 9/11 is accurate. Plenty of independent corroborating evidence and investigative reporting has been done, all of which has confirmed both the contents of the 9/11 Commission Report and the NIST reports. And in 10 years, not one 9/11 Denier has commissioned their own peer-reviewed study or investigation into anything, despite taking in many donations for the purpose of "forcing" the government to undertake a "new, independent investigation." Why try to force the government to do it if you don't trust the government anyway? Why not simply fund an investigation on your own? Answer: Because deep down they know that any genuine investigation is going to confirm the generally accepted account of what happened, and then they couldn't keep going around demanding an "independent" investigation, and their tidy little cottage industry would cease to exist.
What is the "generally accepted account" you're reffering to about which individual(s) conceived, planned and financed the attack, and how and when they did that? Is it the same as what the 9/11 commission said on the matter? Can you cite any "independent corroborating evidence and investigative reporting" which confirms chapters 5 and 7 of the 9/11 commission report i.e. their narrative of the plotting and financing of the attack? Wasn't the thermite flakes paper by Steven Jones peer reviewed? Were the NIST reports about the WTC collapses subjected to the regular peer review process? As far as forcing the government, no real investigation, especially relating to the alleged failures in intelligence and the real time response to the attack, can be done without full government cooperation and disclosure, which even the 9/11 commission didn't receive.
The surface of the sun is only 10,000 degrees F. Nothing inside the building reached 50,000 degrees F. The supports that are cut with shaped charges are not turned to liquid. Whoops. That's a bit shy of 50,000 Degrees F.
It goes without question that propagandists of the "official" story, are quite comfortable with a single zero (as in "official" evidence).
You keep blathering on about the 'official story, as if we only had ONE source......How many others at universites and engineering firms did their own studies? And no,I'm not going to list them

Meh.. Obviously every single person involved in every single one of those reports is "part of the conspiracy." Just like everyone here that dares post anything against our resident 9/11 Deniers. It's a conspiracy consisting of every one of the 7 billion humans in the world that isn't a 9/11 Denier, and yet strangely no one is talking...
"Officially"...zeros add up to changing numbers continually (depending on which version is being presented at the time).
