Reply #7: No sources [View All]

[Kevin Fenton]

AFAIK there are no sources (at least no reliable sources) for the claim the buildings were pre-wired for explosives. It's just guesswork/inference (take your pick). If the WTC was destroyed by explosives then they were either put there (i) just before the attacks in preparation for them, or (2) some time before them, for some other reason. I think the twin towers were destroyed by explosives and that if they had been wired specifically for the attacks they would have been wired better, so that leaves me with (2).

If 7 was pre-wired (and I'm not saying it was) then that would give us a very strong inference that 1 and 2 were. It also might cause problems with the insurers. Another reason is the way it would spin; the last thing they would want on the news is the little postscript that in addition to the two skyscrapers knocked down by terrorists, one was blown up by the government.
