Even if there were controlled explosives in the twin towers, why couldn't they have been planted by Al Qaida?
think about it...
(have you watched the two videos above?)
since the earlier attempts at bombing the WTC buildings - like the van they drove into the basement car parks, security in this and everywhere else that could be a terrorist target in NYC is intense.
I used to live there. When visiting and trying to get into a Citibank building in midtown I cannot begin to describe the security measures JUST to VISIT a guy who invited me up to his office; it was ridiculous.
the WTC was open 24/7, and it was patrolled by security of all sorts.
how much explosive do you think it would take to bring a building that SIZE down?
how much space do you think that much explosive would take up, and how many people it would take to plan & plant it.
demoing VACANT buildings takes MONTHS, and is a very skilled and complex process (see what professional explosives firms have said about the 9/11 conspiracy ideas) and these guys have access to explosives, building plans, are experienced about it, have the staffing, know what they're doing, and are NOT seriously breaking the law or causing any suspicious activity to get noticed, etc.
now then...
we saw several large aircraft flying into these things & the explosions happening... fires, and the eventual collapse of the twin towers...
what do you think likely brought those buildings down, and damaged those buildings surrounding the site where millions of tonnes of debris fell?
how tough of a call is this?
(unless someone is paranoid/illogical/unreasoning etc)
