But there are definite holes in 9/11 and things that need to be answered. The fuel in those planes was not hot enough to melt the flame protected steel for one...and the fire was almost completely out before the falling of the towers.
Sigh, again with the "not hot enough to melt steel" argument. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, go talk to a structural engineer. The steel was NOT melted. It was heated to the point that it became WEAK.

Building 7? As has been mentioned, debris. Come on, the answers are right there. Don't pick and choose your facts.

Burned for days you say? After a jet airliner plowed into them, weakening the structure? In fact I think you will find the construction of the WTC was quite unique, in that the load bearing structure was around the outside. Would a plane smashing through that have some effect on its structural integrity?
