Does Fire Really Cause Building Demolition?
If So, Then Why Use Explosives to
Demolish Buildings?
NewsFocus.org, by Tim Watts - 033116
The charge was made on 9/11 that buildings could collapse from
fire, even though the World Trade Center buildings were very
limited in the amount of fire received, in comparison with other
known high-rise (skyscraper) fires.
So, let's take a look at other large building
fires and their outcomes.
-
First Interstate Bank,
Los Angeles (5/4/88) – 62 stories
Four floors burned for 4 hours
with no collapse.
-
One New York Plaza, New
York (8/5/70) – 50 stories
Five floors burned for 6 1/2 hours
with no collapse.
-
One Meridian Plaza,
Philadelphia
(2/23/91) – 38 stories Eight floors
burned for 18 hours with no collapse.
-
Caracas Tower, Caracas
(10/17/04) - 56 stories
26 floors burned for 17 hours
with no collapse.
-
Windsor Tower, Madrid
(2/12/05) - 32 stories
29 floors burned for 21 hours
with no collapse.
-
BTCC Building, Beijing
(2/2/09) - 44 stories
44 floors burned for 6 hours
with no collapse.
-
Chechnya hotel,
Chechnya (4/3/13) - 40 stories
30 floors burned for 29 hours
with no collapse.
-
Torch Tower, Dubai
(2/21/15) - 79 stories
Many floors burned for 3 1/2 hours
with no collapse.
Despite the ferocious severity of each of
these fires, NONE of the above mentioned
buildings ever collapsed. Not one single building.
And then, of course, there is the World Trade Center on 9/11...

So now we examine the buildings involved on 9/11, and we have
a serious contradiction from the previous set of buildings.
For the first time EVER in the history of architecture and
structural engineering... a high-rise building falls due to
fire... but it doesn't happen just once, it happens THREE
TIMES in one day, on 9/11.
Three building fell on that infamous day, for the
first time ever,
all allegedly due to fire.
What are the odds?
-
WTC 2,
New York (9/11/01) – 110 stories
Five floors burned for :20 min.
total collapse in :10 sec.
-
WTC 1, New
York (9/11/01) – 110 stories
Four floors burned for :20 min.
total collapse in :09 sec.
-
WTC 7, New
York
(9/11/01 – 47 stories
Three floors
burned for 3 hours total collapse in 6.5 sec.
It should be noted that the WTC buildings
were designed and engineered to withstand multiple airliner
strikes, and still stand.
There were unequivocally, NO
"major-ragers" or roaring fires engulfing the interiors of
the WTC towers on 9/11, unlike the other buildings noted above.
FDNY reported before the collapse that the 78th floor had two
small pockets of fire, that could be contained with just
one or two hoses, tops!
So, it's very curious that the towers would collapse, despite
no major fire or heat to weaken the structures.
As a result, over
2,400 international architects and structural engineers have
signed on to a petition stating that the "official story" is not
the real story on 9/11, because high-rise buildings
simply do not fall from fire.
Very tall structures are rigidly engineered not to
collapse from fire.
Again, to reiterate, the WTC buildings were
also designed and
engineered to withstand multiple airliner strikes, and still
stand, yet WTC towers I and II fell effortlessly, within an hour
and 40 minutes.
So, building experts categorically say
that the "official story" on 9/11 is a blatant lie. They base
their opinions on science and physics, as well as their acute
understanding and knowledge of building code and structural
design.
The experts are at clear odds with the
government over the glaring fabrications involved in the
official story. They see the government version as a
deceitful attempt to explain away the events of 9/11 as natural,
when in fact, they were not.
Consider the astronomical odds...
Only on 9/11 has a skyscraper ever fallen,
allegedly due to fire.
Only on 9/11 did this happen... THREE
times.
No building has collapsed since 9/11, despite the
glaring fact that there have been FIVE new skyscraper fires
since then, with all of them burning far longer and
much hotter than all three WTC towers combined.
To top it all off, WTC building 7 fell,
just like WTC towers I & II...
yet it was NEVER hit by an airplane.
Trust the architects and structural
engineers... 9/11 is not what they told you on television.
The "official story" is blatantly and
patently wrong.
Don't buy the lie.
The events of 9/11 are not as the government has told you.
Investigate on your own. Search out the real truth.

WTC Towers I & II
After less than :20 minutes, the WTC fires are
already out, yet both collapsed!
The truth is... 9/11 was an inside job.
The War on Terror is a ruse for
world control by the ultra-wealthy.
Don't be deceived. Be aware.
The truth is out there.
