Please make better arguments.
#1. Two were struck by airliners. Their collapse did enough damage to destroy the third. NYC doesn't experience hurricanes or earthquakes so they wouldn't be designed to withstand such force. I'd be interested in seeing how many buildings around the world would survive a strike like that. #2. B/c HD cameras weren't pointed at the Pentagon in 2001, it's a black eye on the DoD and there's no reason to give our enemies free BDA. #3. They didn't. Plenty of identifiable debris was recovered. #4. It doesn't need to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzF1KySHmUA #5. They did. https://www.militarytimes.com/2016/09/11/this-is-the-story-of-heather-lucky-penney-who-was-asked-to-do-the-unthinkable-on-9-11/ #6. That's how it works when you fail upward. I don't like it either but it still applies today. #7. They were supporting terrorism. Don't ask about SA because Oil https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authorization_for_Use_of_Military_Force_Against_Iraq_Resolution_of_2002 #8. They're carrying extremely heavy loads and aren't designed to be struck by airliners. The force is well beyond what was considered in their construction. https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/design/a3524/4278874/
Full disclosure: I'm on board with any discussion regarding the validity of the official account of 9/11 but the hypothesis cannot guide the discussion. I remember watching Loose Change when it was released and became fairly convinced it was accurate, until I found a far more well-researched point-by-point rebuttal of every single piece of 'evidence' they cited.
Were the hijackers known? I find that compelling but Hanlon's razor applies. So does Occam's in this case.
The administration spent decades ignoring the growing terror threat b/c no one way paying attention to islam's true intentions.
Obviously some people knew what was coming and were able to profit from it. I'd find that dig to be more interesting.
The aftermath gave the government an excuse to gain more power, but the same can be said for every action since 1776.
In general, we cannot fall into the trap of adjusting our required burden of proof when deciding what to believe. Lots of people should be held to account but such is the world in which we live.
