Has Lynn Margulis (and many others) been vindicated about 9/11?
CIA Agent Confesses On Deathbed: ‘We Blew Up WTC7 On 9/11’This is a problem I have studied along with others far more knowledgeable all of them being shrugged off as conspiracy theorists. Maybe sometimes conspiracy theorists are right?
A lot of time has passed since articles by engineers and demolition experts have claimed a false flag operation here and what seemed outlandish is less so as Trump's presidency exposes more and more how low our government can get. Bush was no better, just less transparent.
The government of Trump is a continuation of that of Obama which in turn is a continuation of that Of Bush. Trump has shed the the cover and the evil empire stands naked. History will vindicate a lot more careful, honest doubters who did their research and spoke out.

Building 7 was always the smoking gun in the story
Nowhere in history had a building collapsed like WTC 7 did because of fire. The BBC interview that said that WTC 7 had collapsed 20 minutes before it actually did shows how far the collusion of the media was in this inside attack on America. During the interview when the woman reporter stated that it had fallen, the building is shown to be still standing.
For this guy to think this after knowing that so many Americans had died in the WTC towers is just unfathomable to me.
This is not a patriot imo, it is a corrupt person who cannot see the evil he committed.
People died because of the agency he worked for and if there was a foreign government involved in the attacks, then it is colluding with treason. IMVHO!
(How long did the Gwenfeld tower in London burn without collapsing because of the fire?)

@Timmethy2.0
What I find surprising is that, despite proof of numerous False Flag events and other horrors ranging from organized kidnapping and torture of individuals to the use of White Phosphorus on civilian populations, various representatives of polluting industries knowingly for-profit expediently killing people and destroying the environment throughout their history are somehow, by many, assumed - apparently by virtue of having been cheated into/appointed to public office - to be incapable of killing/allowing to be killed a specific group of more people in a spectacular fashion in order to create an excuse to go and kill people in other countries in order to gain more power and money for themselves.
Life on the Earth itself is being comprehensively murdered due to pathological greed and we already know that there is no low which is too low in the compulsive pursuit of never-enough power and money engaged in by a relative few and their lackeys.

I know many people don't want to believe that their government would deliberately do this, any more than many people will believe in climate change, but nothing else fits all the myriad facts, including the behaviours exhibited following the incident and the number of those who 'just happened' to be set up for this and have profited directly and/or indirectly from 9/11.

Exactly! And it's the fact that the perpetrators have yet to be held accountable which has enabled the continuance and expansion of such shameful and disgusting tactics in order to 'justify' even worse.
About freaking time that the American people broke through the propaganda and began to insist upon 'a country of laws, not men', with independent investigations where actually required, (as opposed to well-publicized witch-hunts as distractions from real abuses and crimes,) publicly-funded politicians and free and fair elections, along with their Constitutionally protected guaranteed, inalienable rights - before the US Constitution is rewritten to exclude them.

It would mean that
"The Government" (or Deep State) Had To Know About the Date of The Intended Plane Hijackings and set up the demolition work beforehand. It's the Only Way it could have been pulled off. The BBC report indicates some people knew ahead of time.
One, it could explain why G. Dubya, President Dick F'n Cheney and the rest of the Bush WH ignored FBI memos of an imminent attack (you've covered your ass... ), and,
Two, why it took so long for USAF jets to get off the ground.
I never bought in to the 911 conspiracy b.s. becuz of too many moving parts, but as we've learned how our -ahem- "Government" works over the last year or two, I'm more convinced that 911 was an inside job. And the resulting M.E. "wars" are horse$h!t. Well, I've always thought the "wars" were b.s., but now there's no doubt.

Similar "convenient" shit went down in London. Everyone just happened to be busy, elsewhere, conducting drills simulating attacks that were coincidentally actually occurring.
I have never believed the official bullshit story, but the alternative is so truly un-fucking-believable that normal people, like us, question our own sanity for even imagining the unbelievable. Nifty trick that.

They did know it was going to happen
I can't remember the terminology for this type of action. Is I called a put option?
Plus the guy who owned the towers made billions from his insurance policies.
IIRC, John Ashcroft told certain people to quit flying commercial in June of that year.
Plus people who worked in the towers were told to stay home on 9/11.
There is so much video evidence that shows that this was a false flag event.
BTW, where is the material from the towers? Not one investigation of the building material was examined and had a report written about it.
The other piece of the smoking gun was that the plane's were allowed to fly over the most restricted airspace in the country for over an hour without one military jet scrambled to intercept them.
As deja stated, they were supposedly doing drills that day. Just like during the London attack and the Boston bombings.
There was a mercenary company doing the drills at the same time of the marathon. Seriously, who would be doing a fake bombing drill during that?
From the linked article, there is a link to a different article about John Kerry admitting that they 'pulled' building 7, plus a news reporter heard the order to pull it.

I think I remember someone explaining that the steel
of the towers, the debris so to speak, was shipped quickly and efficiently to China. If you think I will try to find that "source" for that, you make a mistake.

Bloomberg? Don't say New York dynasty. It does say there "destruction of evidence", those are the words I'd use too. Seemed wrong at the time, pointless except to hide something, a cover up. Last time I checked that was a pretty pretty bad thing, a criminal act. Back then was when I learned the phrase "suspension of disbelief", kinda psychologically screwed like a lot of other people.
peace
thx., all I remember is
that my son was sent from Montana AFB to NYC to help moving the steel debris for 8 days, because the military had special equipment to do the work. The idea to ship that steel debris to China for souvenir making is ridiculous, imo. I don't think that the guys working on that knew what would happen to the steel. Little soldier people. Ignoramussis.
Other than that I don't have a comment. I am the ignoramus in here. And the one who doesn't want to research that 15 years later. I also rememeber to ask an ignoramus question back in the days on TOP about it and that got me the first "warning" from Meteor Blades back then. Enough for me to shut down my brain on this issue and let it be the American business to think about it.
https://www.euronews.com/live
the difficulty is with this assertion:
, because the controlled demolition/false-flag explanation is a rather bad fit to all the other myriad facts we have available to us.
my own readings on this suggest that most of the "myriad facts" asserted by the CD/FF contingent are:
A. Not necessarily true (probably more than half)
or B. Not at all true (another large chunk)
or C. Not inconsistent with Demolition-By-Aircraft explanation
I find that arguing about it is comparable to arguing with someone about climate change: One debunks each successive claim, only to have yet another thrown in one's face; while one's interlocutor remains oblivious to the reality that the "myriad" of facts is slowly disintegrating, and no longer even provides a coherent narrative.
The worst of it is not the WTC debate, however: The worst is the Pentagon. I will say this, straight up and straight out: Anybody who believes that what hit the Pentagon on 9/11 was something other than a Boeing 757 jetliner, operating as American Airlines Flight 77, is thinking with a level of irrationality that meets the definition of delusion.
The earth is a multibillion-year-old sphere.
The Nazis killed millions of Jews.

If you cannot accept these facts, I cannot fake an interest in any of your opinions.
I'm still firmly in the Heads-Up-Asses group
That is, believing that BushCo had their heads wedged so far and so firmly up their asses that they just couldn't even imagine anything could Possibly Go Wrong.
It makes as much, or as little, sense as any of the other theories.
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
I agree with
much of what you say. But to this,
I would respond that, yes, many people saw an airliner hit the Pentagon, but some people believe it's possible something in addition to the plane, perhaps a missile, also hit the Pentagon. And that speculation comes at least in part from the Exit Hole photographs which look so much like the results of a military shaped charge blast. Also, I think there is speculation that the shaped charge was set within the Pentagon, possibly for the purpose of escape.
I don't have strong feelings about what I've read about this speculation. But I do think it's very possible a heat-seeking missile fired by our defensive aircraft may have reached the plane as it hit the Pentagon.
i have no doubt that if either the entrance or exit holes
had been anything other than circles, that would be touted as evidence of nefariosity.
it's kinda like, no matter what is wrong with our economy, a republican will blame it on high taxes. this is because they start with the certainty that taxes are bad for the economy, and then construct a corresponding argument to explain any current economic problems in that light.
god knows what their arguments would look like if there were no taxes for them to blame.

I can understand
why you would respond as you have. But until I read about the shaped charge, a military explosive device that is used to make shaped holes, and until I had seen the photographs and videos of the use of shaped charges, I would have glossed over this as you have. Seeing the exact results of such blasts in military tests and settings, I understand why the rescue and cleanup personnel immediately identified this exit hole as the result of a shaped charge blast or warhead.
With all the respect I have for you, I think what you're objecting to is questioning what happened. In fact there were at least 2 other exit holes at the Pentagon, not circular. I do respect what you are saying, such that questioning what happened takes on a life of its own and goes to everything, to the point where bearings are lost in the process. I agree with you, but I also think there was so much wrong with the original bearings that such dislocation was bound to happen.
what i'm objecting to is the preference for
extraordinary explanations for things that aren't extraordinary. what shape would you expect an airplane (or one of its jet engines) to make, smashing into a wall at 2 or 3 hundred miles an hour? there's nothing astonishing about round things in the universe -- for many mathematical reasons, nature has a strong bias towards roundness.
the remarkable thing about a shaped charge is not that it creates a round hole (instead of ... what?), but that it creates a small round hole, by projecting a disproportionate fraction of the explosive force in a particular direction -- normally, in the direction of whatever it is one is targeting. the objective is to avoid dispersing the energy in a spherical blast, wasting much of it. thus, you get a small hole and a lot of damage inside the building, rather than blowing up half the wall (and whatever's in the street) while doing less damage to the inside of the building.
in other words, the it-was-a-missile Pentagon argument is being made exactly in reverse, to create an air of unlikelihood around what is actually the design purpose: the shaped charge enables an exploding bomb to create a damage footprint that looks a lot like the one made by a large cylindrical (or spherical) non-exploding mass hitting a wall at high speed. it would be surprising if the entry and exit holes of the aircraft (and/or its pieces) did not look like they do, and it would be a disappointment to the designers of the shaped charge if their weapon's footprint did not resemble those same entry and exit holes.

additional exit holes?
these guys don't seem to know about them.
what (or how much) came out the other side is not something i've paid much attention to, but whatever did, and whatever external damage it left, would have depended on what the various parts of the plane hit as they were going through the building. in this case, what came out the other side appears to have been one of the wheels, along with parts of the landing gear.

Sure,
I hear you on this about the other exit holes. But the shaped charge blast signature shape of the Exit Hole is what it is. What it implies is up for grabs.
I agree with the scientists who say the nose cone of the plane, the fuel from the plane, and/or the force of the energy from the plane did not make the Exit Hole. But I agree with them because it sounds like common sense to me.
I hope you realize conspiracy theorists like myself have a lifelong relationship with common sense, as I know you do.

Exactly. WTC 7 had to
be rigged Before 9/11. No Way they rigged it that day. The BBC obviously knew it was coming down - they reported it down 20 mins. before it imploded. ooops. There was no "crime" in bringing down a building that likely was going to collapse anyway. The "crime" was the ability to bring it down so quickly - it takes a bunch of time to rig a building in the best of conditions - and reporting it down before it was down by the BBC. That was a big ooops. WTC 7 sells the "Inside Job" for me. Wasn't there a YouTube video by that name? If WTC 7 was rigged Before 9/11 - and it obviously was - the only reason would be a "just in case" measure. In case it was necessary. Break Glass in case of emergency.
I find it amazing that "the government" would deliberatly kill nearly 3,000 people - some among the financial sector's best and brightest - so that "they" (the gov't) could secure oil prices in the M.E.

They want complete control. They want an American Century, defined by corporate capitalism/totalitarianism. And they don't care who has to die to get there. Even that guy in the article said when a "patriot" is called they do their duty. And they've been trained so well to do it. Hell, even 9/11 was mere distraction, useful indeed, but only a way to get our foot in the door all over the world. And the abomination it's done at home just makes it so that even when people wake up, they may not have enough basic resources to do one thing about it. When you're starving you really can't do much protesting, especially against those trained to kill first and don't worry about consequences. We matter no more to them than those poor people in the ME. Full cynicism on display, but I put nothing past them anymore.

"I put nothing past them anymore."
I have used the same words.
it just gets worse.
On a scale
of conspiracy theorists I feel like I'm off on my own far left edge, but early on, the question was asked: why, if WTC buildings were pre-set to be brought down, why? Why not let them be partially ruined, even if you had knowledge that they were going to be attacked? Why bring them down?
I think that was always a good question. Speculation included destruction of evidence. Evidence of what, though?
The one speculation that seemed logical to me was that the Port Authority, or whoever owned the WTC, was going to eventually have to demolish those gigantic buildings and that they were too big to do so without contaminating Manhattan with toxic waste, asbestos et al. So, knowing the Trade Center was a terrorist target, the new lease holder set the buildings with explosives in order to destroy them totally, unlike the damage that was done in the 1993 attack, which was hideously expensive to repair, in the event there was a terrorist attack.
Insurance payout came to $7 billion, which seems like chump change now in the age of ISIS, but in those days that was a lot of money.
I Heard It on the Radio
Strange that a harp of thousand strings should keep in tune so long
I would be very interested to see someone provide a chain
of information in which somehow somebody at the BBC "knew" that WTC 7 was marked for demolition in a False Flag operation, and transmitted the consequence of that knowledge down or across through the BBC's news operation until it ended up being reported prematurely.
This is a perfect example of the bizarre nature of this sort of reasoning. We are given two propositions:
A. The conspirators, for purposes unknown to us, included somebody at the BBC within the circle of those who were informed about the operation and its planned outcome; and at some point during the day that person, for purposes also unknown to us, pushed the fact of WTC 7's collapse into the BBC's newstream before it had actually happened, resulting in it being reported 20 minutes in advance.
vs.
B. Somebody at the BBC misinterpreted some information that had come in from Ground Zero concerning the status of WTC 7, resulting in its collapse being reported 20 minutes before it actually happened.
Who on earth, given these two propositions, would select A, which makes no sense even under the CD/FF hypothesis? Scenario A depends entirely on two assertions that are each by themselves more improbable than Scenario B.
1. Somebody at the BBC was in on the False Flag, including the particular detail that WTC 7 was slated for destruction.
2. That person fed the report of WTC 7's collapse into the news team's reporting, rather than leaving it to the news team simply report it when it actually happened.

What I saw with my own eyes (on video)
was three controlled demolitions. Clear as day, no doubt about that. Later it was explained to me, in great detail and by the highest of authorities, that these were not controlled demolitions. Even though they looked like, and acted like controlled demolitions, they were actually "pancake-like" collapses. It was of course not possible to know exactly what a pancake-type collapse might look like, because none had ever occurred before. This was the first one ever, in the entire history of steel frame high-rise buildings. Wow, isn't that something! But as they say, there's a first time for everything.
However, for some reason those damn videos still didn't look anything like pancakes collapsing to me. They still looked exactly like controlled demolitions. Ain't it funny how sometimes you can't even believe your own eyes? Then finally when the 9/11 Commission report came out, they said it was a pancaking event for sure, so that was that. Case closed, time to move on, please pass the syrup.
Well, America most certainly did move on, though perhaps not in the most advantageous of directions.

Hmm. But they collected all those tapes and can't release any of them even now? We were able to see the video of a horrendous car crash in my neighborhood that killed two people, about a day later.

Because a fire up near the top of extremely tall buildings specifically built to withstand the impact of any potential airplane strike invariably causes much of the material in lower stories to predominately turn to powdered dust in virtually instant succession as each successive floor evenly collapses.
Fire's just like that. They don't even have to bother with controlled demo in skyscrapers anymore; just dump in some airplane fuel on one of the upper floors and Bob's your uncle - right in their own foot-prints every time!

@don mikulecky
OK, that was rather obvious sarcasm, but much of what happened on 9/11 has apparently never happened before or (so far) since.
I know nothing about the technical aspects myself, obviously, although looking at the footage of the actual collapses below the area of the building impacts/fires raises questions even in the utter ignoramus. Especially when it turns out that much of what appeared to be smoke was actually giant rolling clouds of dust which coated a large area, (with rather a lot of paper seen scattered in the streets in many videos,) with far less large debris than might have been expected to remain within such large, furnished buildings, which appeared to disintegrate on the way down, generally contents and all.
I haven't looked at much of the 9/11 footage or information for some time, but as far as I can tell by a rapid skim, this appears to be a good breakdown, at least to this particular ignoramus.
(There's been a focus placed on Building 7, because that was not even hit by an airplane, but the same pattern shows throughout the affected buildings.)
All I can say is that what I read/saw at the time made sense only when viewed in the light of controlled demolition, as presented by numerous experts - and that necessary evidence required for a proper investigation was very promptly cleared away and even offshored, making any such standard, properly conducted investigation as would normally have been conducted, according to various experts, impossible. And much surrounding the event fit in only with an inside job, or at least one for which a number of beneficiaries were prepared.

The mere presence of multiple sources/repeats obviously does not make anything true, but I personally prefer to go with whatever explains all known facts over 'official' stories which don't, from known prevaricators gaining money, power and an excuse to profitably kill people elsewhere by their story being accepted.
This recent blaze was mentioned upthread, an inferno which no-one on the top floors could have survived, yet the far more poorly-built building with highly flammable cladding apparently failed to disintegrate into its own footprint.

It's shown burning like a torch - couldn't watch for more than a few minutes and frankly have often not been doing more than minimal viewing of what comes up on a fast search and seems to cover various points (not dealing well with these sorts of horrors,) but the fact that the Grenfell Towers, (evidently built and maintained with a notable lack of regard for safety,) and 9/11 buildings are not comparable might make the point even better than the usual examples.

The aftermath was not largely consisting of small particles.
If 9/11 wasn't, at the least, officially known about with various personal beneficial results cold-bloodedly planned for by a number of people, including top government officials in the Bush Administration, there are so many otherwise inexplicable oddities involved in 9/11...
Hope this makes sense, lol, not having a good day and find it really hard going though this stuff again.

Regarding my "free-fall" assertion, it wasn't intended to be mathematically accurate, but only a kind of shorthand for the fact that the velocity of descent was relatively close to that of a free-falling object. Certainly the velocity was many times faster than what a falling mass with most of an entire building in its path would have been. Even a very large falling mass would have been significantly slowed, blocked, deflected, or even stopped before it hit the ground, had the obstructions in its path not been eliminated.

yeah, but
you're just saying this:
And you have no evidence that it's true, and I flatly disagree. Once a floor collapses and the 20 floors above it start to fall, there's certainly no stopping it, and probably not really much slowing it down. The momentum involved is extraordinary

This isn't patriotism, it's cold blooded murder. I don't know what he means by "shit talk .
How he thought that killing not just the 3,000 people who died in the towers, but the many rescue workers who dug through the remains of the buildings. They were told by Bush's health secretary that the air was not a danger to them. Imagine their surprise when they started getting sick because of the air was toxic. They fought for years to get congress to authorize money for their medical treatment. One would think that this legislation would be a no brainer for congress to allocate, but they were treated just like the veterans who got sick with Gulf syndrome which was tied to their vaccines they received before being deployed to Kuwait to fight against Saddam's military.
Congress has no problem sending the troops into harm's way, but they balk at providing money for their injuries.
The republicans mostly vote against every veterans bills, including John McCain.

'My country, right or wrong' ought to mean that when it's doing wrong, you work to make it do the right thing, because you care about it and want to be proud of it, not that you will enact or accept wrongs merely because your current government is pathological and you will blindly follow whatever leader shows up. That isn't patriotism at all, at least not in my books. That's ignorant, mindless expediency, going with the flush, so to speak.
Edit: and I would hope that nobody thinks my use of 'you' is intended to indicate anyone here, but my evident lack of clarity appears to have caused a bit of confusion hither and yon and so thought that I'd better make sure that doesn't happen here.

This was settled at the Nuremberg trials
following orders that are illegal does not excuse people from their actions.
I don't know what is involved when people join the CIA or any other government agencies, but I would assume that they swear an oath to defend this country from enemies foreign and domestic.
I do know that the president and congress members do swear this oath and one would assume that creating an event that takes people's lives is definitely against that oath.
We know that the joint chiefs of staff had planned to create a false flag event in order to have a reason to attack Cuba. This was buried for decades before it was declassified.
The amount of evidence on the internet shows that this was a false flag event that initially cost 3,000+ lives and led to hundreds of millions of lives lost in the Middle East because of this heinous crime.
I recently read Joe's diary on ToP about Obama's unconstitutional use of drones in countries that had nothing to do with the attack by so called terrorists. I was amazed to see how many people were okay with the use of them.
If this action was bad when Bush did it, then it's just as bad when Obama did too.
Now that Trump is the president, people seem to have amnesia for what happened during the last 8 years.
Every time I read about something that happened in the Middle East, I keep forgetting that Obama isn't president. But everything that happens over there is because of Obama's actions. He entered office with two wars going on and left with the same damned war in Afghanistan, but Libya is in ruins, we are fighting in Syria, Iraq (again) helping Saudi Arabia commit war crimes and crimes against humanity, and gawd knows how many other countries. At least 134 in Africa alone according to Nick Turse and using drones in at least 7-8 countries.

Depends on whether you follow Decatur or Schurz
Stephen Decatur is generally credited with the terse "My country, right or wrong" statement - although what he actually said was a little different: "Our country! In her intercourse with foreign nations, may she always be in the right; but our country, right or wrong."
Sen. Carl Schurz, a couple of generations later, elaborated on the statement: "My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right."
There is no justice. There can be no peace.
a phrase with wide application
sad to say it.
A while back, I was more caught up in this
But I read a long article by Richard Muller, a physicist at UC Berkeley, that explained that the amount of energy in 2 fully fueled jumbo jets traveling at hundreds of miles an hour, approaches the energy of the A-bomb at Hiroshima, where a lot of buildings collapsed on their own. A lot of energy is needed to transport hundreds of people across the country in 6 hours. The melting point of steel is high, but it is weakened significantly at high temperatures. Once the top level started weakening the lower levels gave way, giving the pancaking, demolition like effect. The shock waves brought down building 7. Of course, the hijackers could have been allowed to carry out their "Pearl Harbor like attack".
Beware the bullshit factories.
Are you sure
this makes sense to you?
Are you saying the genius of all the people who worked for years on the Atomic bomb, with all the costs and secrecy we expended on the production of atomic weapons, could have been accomplished simply by flying fuel-loaded planes into Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
Or are you saying the energy of fuel-loaded planes approaches the energy of an atomic bomb in the sense that it is somewhere on a spectrum that goes from small to large and therefore it approaches the large. What are you saying?
I have never been convinced about whether the pancake theory or the demolition theory makes more sense. The pulverization of concrete makes me side with the likelihood that the North and South Towers were blown up. Unlike WTC7, the larger towers do not look like controlled demolition, they look like they were destroyed by explosives.
I don't know, I'm not an expert in physics
But if I want knowledge about the plausibility of the buildings collapsing from the impact of the airplanes alone, I think I will give more regard to people who make money by studying and teaching physics over people who make money from blogs and books that are intended to rile people up.
Beware the bullshit factories.
@Timmethy2.0 Rile people up, or
I think "riling up" is the natural consequence of getting at the horrible truth.
What I know about physics would not fill up a thimble, and I have a deep respect for experts in that field.
That said, in my life, scientists hired by the tobacco companies determined studies show tobacco promotes good health. Oil companies have hired scientists to very successfully debunk fossil fuel as a cause of climate change. Roundup is safe. Just ask the hired experts.
There is way more money to be made from hiding the truth than exposing it.
"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." ---- William Casey, CIA Director, 1981
But those aren't real scientists
They don't have respect for science and they've ruined their reputation because of it. They can never get a job at a major research institution because they've shown that they don't respect the scientific method.
Beware the bullshit factories.
Scientists are as vulnerable
to peer pressure, group-think, and confirmation bias as any other profession. Particularly so, when matters of great political import are under consideration.

They have to back up what they publish
They have to make experiments that can be duplicated at any time. They have to subject all their research to peer review before it can be published and they have to acknowledge when the evidence proves them wrong. If they are shown to have faked data then their careers suffer hugely...unless they're working for oil or tobacco companies. In reality, I don't know crap, and I'm desperate for some truth in the wider world outside my friends and family. I suppose scientists aren't super people, but I think on the whole, they have more integrity than people in many other professions. In a lot of professions it is necessary to sell out in order to succeed.
Beware the bullshit factories.
I would also
look at the opinions of physicists, engineers, architects and forensic scientists, so I am in agreement with you on that. But I also know the scientists who write about the collapse of the towers disagree about it. So where does that leave us? Here are some who make a case for the use of explosives:
But there were no fires
throughout either building. The lower 75% of both WTC1 and WTC2 were fully intact, neither structurally weakened, nor even much affected by the fires above them. Even assuming that the upper 25% did fall directly on top of the lower 75% of these two buildings, (a questionable assumption) this would not have resulted in the nearly free-fall speed of the collapses that occurred. Nor would it have caused the lower floors to utterly disintegrate as they did, into piles of pulverized rubble.
This is not rocket science, in spite of the best efforts of various NIST and Livermore Lab authorities to make it seem very complicated. It is simply a case of one massive structure (intact but damaged) falling on top of another massive structure (intact and not damaged) that is three times as large. After which, the forces of gravity and inertia, and those forces only would be operative. Unless of course, something cleared away all resistance from below the falling mass -- which is clearly and obviously what happened. Take away all the "scientific" gobbledy-gook, and we are left with a single, undeniable fact: There was no resistance.
The primary, and perhaps the only relevant fact we need to explain the fee-fall collapse that we all witnessed, is that somehow, the falling upper 25% of the buildings met with no resistance at all, on its way to the ground. Steel frame skyscrapers simply do not, and cannot possibly collapse into their own footprints, under the forces of gravity and inertia alone.
native
First, it was not a collapse at "nearly free-fall" speed.
Anybody with a stop-watch can view the videos and confirm this.
Second, this assertion:
(even allowing for deletion of the modifier "nearly free-fall") requires support that is not forthcoming. A while back I did some back-of-the-envelope calculations that were not inconsistent with what we observe in the videos.

Never before in history double pancake collapse
Maybe it's just American Exceptionalism?
I'm no physicist, but my layman brain thinks that the logical reaction of at least one of the buildings (the one hit farther down) would have been for the top floors to topple off and fall onto surrounding structures.
My layman brain cannot accept what I saw, not just once, but twice that horrible day - double pancake. And, my layman brain thought it reminded me of a video from a Vegas controlled demolition. They weren't like giant trees toppled over due to high winds at their tops. That would've been more believable and would've completely destroyed far more surrounding structures, killing many, many more people. This unprecedented double pancake collapse is simply unbelievable.
Actually, it was a TRIPLE pancake collapse
but otherwise... spot on.
native
this is just meaningless:
A. Never before in history (or since) has a fully-fueled large passenger jet flown into a skyscraper. To my knowledge, never before has an out-of-control fire burned for hours on any floor of any skyscraper. It's hardly surprising that the result was also something that has never before happened. Since no floor has ever collapsed in any skyscraper for any reason at all, the fact that we've never seen a comparable pancake collapse is inevitable.
B. WTF does it even mean to say that the towers were "specifically built to sustain airplane crashes"? First, what is the basis for this claim, and second, what was the actual design specification given to the engineers and architects? Do you imagine an engineer considering some such event could possibly have designed any tower to withstand what actually happened -- a large passenger aircraft, fully-fueled, hitting the tower, not by accident, but with engines roaring at full throttle? How exactly do you think an engineer would approach such a design assignment? What do you think can actually be done to make a building impervious to such a physical insult? What magical materials and mechanical principles would have been applied to the problem?
The most remarkable thing to me about the entire event is that the buildings stayed up as long as they did, before the structural steel on the burning floors was sufficiently weakened by the high temperatures that it could no longer hold up the mass of the floors above it. The subsequent pancake collapse is exactly what I would expect once any floor with more than 5 or 10 stories above it gave way. Every argument that something else should have happened runs up against one very particular objection, which is that the same argument holds equally unless every single floor was dynamited, which might be conceivable but isn't a very common claim.

Magical materials,
as you mention, are essentially what the dying whistleblower, the subject of this essay, describes. He used military grade nanothermite to bring down WTC7 because fire alone would not destroy structural steel. The temperatures of jet fuel and burning office materials would not have been sufficient to destroy the structural integrity of the WTC steel, according to some scientists, and the finding of such explosive residues at the site is what started the entire Scientists for Truth movement.
I am unconvinced either way. What I'm trying to convince you of is that speculating about such things is not pointless and not based on magical thinking.
the magical materials to which i refer would be the ones
that could somehow survive what happened to those buildings.
yeah, there are some scientists who insist that the fires weren't hot enough to weaken the steel -- and there are dozens of others who insist to the contrary, as well as firefighting professionals who assert that they have seen twisted, deformed steel in the ruins of other buildings whose fires did not burn any hotter than the WTC fires.
the NIST analysis of WTC7 is that
A. the building had far more structural damage than was at first realized
B. the building had design elements that created specific critical stress points where, once other parts of the system had failed, the materials in place would be overloaded.
C. A and B combined such that, after burning hot and out of control for several hours, some of those stress points reached their overload thresholds and a cascade of failures ensued.
Again, there is nothing in this explanation that is extraordinary or unusual -- it's a quite straightforward description of the failure of a complex system subjected to a set of stresses for which it could never have been designed. On the other hand, every explanation involving deliberate demolition of WTC7 rests on a series of strange improbabilities relating to the motivations and purposes of whomever is imagined to have planned and executed that demolition.
So, given the choice between:
A. An explanation that makes perfect sense.
and
B. An explanation that requires almost arbitrary speculation about who did what and why
I'm going to choose A.

But it's not 25% falling
on 75% - it's 25% falling on 1% - one floor.
But, yeah, I agree that it's highly scientifically unlikely that the builing comes down at free fall speed. That 75% or 65% or 55% eventually slows down the collapse. Somewhere at 35% still standing, or so, one would think those collapsed floors above would simply topple over the edge, stopped by the structurally sound 35% of the building unaffected by the "plane crash."

I do not see 35% of the towers
(which is to say roughly 38 floors) still standing. I see almost nothing still standing, aside from the ruined remnants of a few exterior walls.
