I don't care how much a terrorist runs his mouth, there is no way they could have brought down those buildings using a plane.
Heat will do a lot of things! Heat is my favorite tool when it comes to working on cars (rusted parts here in New England)

Heat produced from the fuel of the plane, melting the structure of the WTC will indeed make it less stable. Watch "Inside 9/11" from National Geographic and it will show you in detail, the structure of the WTC and what would make it fall. IT ALL ADDS UP!

The heat produced by the jetfuel did not have the power to take down the highly rated steel within an hour. NOT POSSIBLE

Even if it had burned for 24 hours it should, and would have held.

It is bullshit. The towers were constructed to withstand MULTIPLE PLANE HITS.

You seemed to jump right into that conclusion to support your argument

The designers themselves said it. It was built to withstand MULTIPLE 767 hits. Architects from around the world have cried out but their screams have not been heard (yet).

Was a structure like that ever tested though?? I could build a building and say it would withstand a nuclear bomb...I could say lots of things! Sometimes things that are built are not the best engineered as they expected it to be.

BMW's slogan, "The Ultimate Driving Machine" haha year right! Some of the worst engineered cars I have ever seen on the planet!

The fact that a building in south america, that had a steel structure like the WTC, burned for 48 hours without coming down should say it all.

It was actually a B-25 approx 20,000 lbs empty max T/O 35,000 lb


B-52 is approx 185,000 lbs empty max T/O 488,000 lb

it's interesting that the max T/O of a 767 is 450,000 lb

Did they dump 20,000 gallons of jet fuel in it before it caught fire?

or perhaps they exploded 20,000 of jet fuel to start the fire?
