Asymettretric damage does not cause symmetric failure. Engineering 101. Plus, all 3 towers fell at free fall speed...impossible.

Also, burning jet A-1 does not burn or weaken steel else every automobile engine would melt on the first drive!

Ok, I’ll bite....
So who flew the planes into the towers?
How did the explosions just happen at the exact floor of the planes impact?

I thought it odd that someone would think that 9/11 brought on a new age of conspiracy theories. I remember a Mel Gibson movie titled “Conspiracy Theory”; I looked it up, copyright 1997. Even in 1997 conspiracy theories were enough of a thing to have a popular movie made about them. Conspiracy theories have been around forever.
There are conspiracy theories about JFKs assassination. McCarthy's claim that the US government had been infiltrated by communist was even tagged as a conspiracy theory. Since the author of this article didn't realize that conspiracy theories are common though out history I assumed that he must be young. So I looked him up, he's not that young.
He does have a book titled “How Fascism Works” published. After reading the first few pages of the Amazon excerpt it appears that he thinks that we here on FR are the fascists. The book uses the propaganda technique of projection. He should know how that works, since he has another book titled “How Propaganda Works”

Not one word on Clinton, Obama or Biden. How objective.

Yes, I’ve seen the blowouts. They were used to pre-weaken the the structures for ‘pulling’. Plus, the owner of WTC 7 was caught on an interview saying they decided to pull (demolish) the building down.

There is much more illogical incidents and I’m really surprised no one outside this country hasn’t called this the 🐎💩 it is...with their own data and evidence.

The military likes to classify and restrict everything and then keep it secret until otherwise ordered. There’s still numerous classified information, documents, and photos dating back to the Civil War. Tons of secrets date to both world wars.

The paradox is that unless you know the specific secret you can’t declassify it.

What really amazed me is how far lateral those blowouts went! It looked like they went out >100 yards straight which implies a ton of pop!
