I hope that's not all you have, that is a very weak argument.

I'm no conspiracy theorist but if the government had something to do with the original attacks and it was mainly government organisations in tower 7 then they would want to do something to cover their tracks and that seems like the ideal thing to do.

Not at all...

My mum works for the company that manufactured and supplied the fire protection to the twin towers and even tower 7...

The fire protection was literally obliterated the second the jet smashed into the towers as it was never designed (from a fire perspective) for such a scenario...

Tower 7 though was not hit by anything but debris such as dust, materials from the falling trade centres over 100metres away nothing that would of affected the structural steel or associated fire protection...

it dropped straight to the ground, didn't collapse in any direction but downwards and into it's own footprint...

Why would it do that? I was very suspect about that, I can understand the twin towers falling due to the impact it suffered and explosion from the aircraft, initial damage to the structure and insane temperatures due to the fuel and explosion from the aircraft..

Flying debris that hit tower 7 would cause cosmetic damage to a building it wouldn't reduce the structural performance of a building to that degree...

The skyscraper would more than likely be burned down with the structural frame of the building being exposed and still standing if anything...

The temperatures of the fire would of been nothing like that of the twin towers....

That theory is just retarded! Why would the government want to claim so many innocent lives? It was a terrorist attack plotted by al-Qeada not a government terrorist attack

Personally I hate these conspiracies and most of you know I do my best to disprove them.

But I must admit I can't accept the official story for WTC7. Everything else I can give a reasonable explanation for. But not WTC7. Looking forward to seeing the results.

Can't remember where I saw it, but the debris caused more than 'cosmetic' damage.

I believe it might have actually been the report in that link.

I get that a plane could blast all of the fire protection off the steel, and aviation fuel fire could weaken it, hence the twin towers falling

but the other tower must have had something naughty in it if it was a controlled explosion, for that kind of timeframe, and that much media on the ground, my money would be on the building being pre rigged?

Why would they pre rig it if they had no idea that there was going to be a terrorist attack on the first two towers? It's not phesable
