If buildings collapsed this beautifully and cleanly without a single explosive charge or similar device, then they wouldn't need demolition teams to implode buildings. Nor would it require the whole buildings to be rigged and preped.

Secondly there are signs that certain groups knew about the attacks beforehand....it's literally unbelievable that the CIA failed to detect and US internal security failed at precisely the right time.

Steel,

You're right. We would be much better off flying 767's fully loaded with people and fuel into buildings we want demolished

“Steel “it's literally unbelievable that the CIA failed to detect and US internal security failed at precisely the right time.”

Not necessarily,

I recall the CIA did not even realize, back in 1989, that the USSR was about to “implode”.

The television interview with Richard Gage of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth is worth look (labelled "AE911 stuns Vancouver with local TV interview") lasting 20 minutes near the top left of the http://www.ae911.org is worth a look. Many of the sorts of questions being asked here were asked of Richard Gage.

They couldn't even keep the bugging of the watergate hotel secret.

How are they going to keep the total wiring of three massive buildings with 1000's of explosive charges, secret.

Nothing is secret anymore. No one takes their secret to the grave.

That there are people out there who believe that the US gov't could convince enough people that it was a good idea to blow up the WTC's, the pentagon, etc, and carry it out, just astounds me. There is no precedent for this kind of evil.

Can those who believe that the US gov't wanted to go to war, tell me why they couldn't have engineered a "tonkin gulf" type incident.

I mean, a small dirty bomb blowing up in the no-fly zone would have precipitated an invasion of Iraq. In fact why did this same gov't which perpretrated this great evil on its own people, let the fact that there were no WMD's in Iraq at the time of the invasion get out? Surely if the could pull off the greatest conspiracy ever, they could find some pretend WMD's to keep the public happy?

Be careful not to create a strawman conspiracy theory. There are many differeing theories about the extent and degree of complicity by various agencies.

Also I think my prior comment already questions your interpretation. If the buildings fell due to an uneven fire on 1-2 levels of a building, then you would only have to lay charges on one level of the building to collapse them.
