The collapse of Building 7 of the WTC


A concise (9-minute) summary of the questions remaining about why Building 7 collapsed on 9/11. The salient points emphasized in the video are as follows:
  • This building was NOT hit by a plane.
  • It incurred only minor damage from debris - much less than buildings 3,4,5, and 6 (which remained standing).
  • It is the only steel-framed building whose collapse has been blamed on a fire.
  • The owner, Larry Silverstein, said in a 2002 PBS documentary "...maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it. And they made that decision..."
If you're going to comment on this post, please focus on Building 7.

A extensive rebuttal of the above is at this link.

  2. Nice link Annon.

    Plus, we gotta remember that building 7 had fuel and oxygen as a control building. Lots of stuff to burn and explode.

    More to the point for me is that, I know human nature well enough at this point in my life to doubt such a large secret could be kept by so many without an inside leak. In the video alone, we have the developer, the mayor of NY, the firefighters, the presumed experts who planted the demolition, etc, etc. Not evidence against a conspiracy, I know, but good common sense.

  3. So what are you guys saying, that the building fell spontaneously, or that it was pulled by the firefighters? Silverstein says they made that decision and we watched it come down. He's talking the next year not right at the time. What is he talking about?

    to mike - the mayor doesn't have to be in on it. Someonetells him to get out and he gets out. The firefighters bless their hearts are not in on it. That leaves just the developer and whoever had the thermite installed. Maybe even Silverstein didn'tknow. Someone told him you ought to buy this building and insure it against terrorism. :.)

  4. It's not a worthwhile endeavor to show things like facts and evidence to "truthers."

    The typical response to a rebuttal such as the link you supplied is simply to ignore it.

  5. The terminology used is unimportant. What is decisive is the fashion in which the building came down. In 6 seconds, at free fall speed. In it's own footprint. This has never occurred ever! That encompasses all building damage that has ever been recorded. Bombs, planes, weather, fire. None of these have ever dropped a building in it's own footprint at free fall speed. Only one thing has been able to do this. Controlled demolition. That is a undisputed fact. Dispute that, show me some footage of that happening in the past. Or we could argue about what a guy meant by saying the word "pull" cause that's relevant how? By the way I like the run time of this clip.

  6. i'm really impressed that this is on your blog.

    Anon and Mike "building 7 had oxygen and fuel"

    really?

    Ben has it on point.

    9/11 was a planned and controlled attack, with help from the highest reaches of our government.
