20. Bullshit.
There's no issue here. Get off it.

There was an intense fire. There was deisel fuel in the basement. Structural steel loses strength when it gets very hot. The design of the building was conducive to collapse. It fell straight down. That's what gravity does. The world's structural engineers and architects have studied these collapses intensely. Hopefully, they will useful things for the design of future buildings.

It makes no sense whatever that the nefarious Gov't agency that had arranged to fly jetliners into the Twin Towers would also arrange to carefully place the many small charges necessary to create a controlled demolition--after the building had burned for hours and surely destroyed everything inside.

You and I both have better things to do than worry about this crap.
