buildings don't collapse into their own footprint from that amount of damage. in order for that to happen, all main supports have to be removed in a certain order. this is a process that takes a high degree of planning and skill.

even larry silverstein said he gave the order to "pull it". after making that comment he kept quiet because he knew he fucked up. when he was asked a year later he said he was referring to pulling firefighters. well, you don't call a group of people "it" and there were no firefighters in that building at the time because the entire area was considered unsafe.

if another country had the same thing happen to them and they blamed us for the attack, you would have every swinging dick engineer saying it was a textbook demo job.

how could the government do this? we wiped out 1/4 of a million people using two bombs so do you really think they give a fuck about 3K?
