Carol - the fires were caused by the damage sustained.

How did the fires get into the basement, Ron?

As for me showing evidence of a building collapse, perhaps it would be more appropriate for you to show us an example of a building falling sideways as you are suggesting?

I'm not suggesting they fall sideways. I'm saying that steel I beam construction buildings don't fall due to fire. Prior to 9/11, not one ever has, nor have any since.

Tuskegee is a red herring.

It's not a red herring if someone is saying that human nature makes it impossible to believe that our government could have been complicit. We can see from numerous examples that human nature is capable of pretty much anything.

We all know that the government lies and has always, and will always, conduct nefarious projects in secret. As issue with the WTC is how they could have pulled it off on such a large scale. The involvement would have required thousands, and someone would have talked - as the whistle blower in Tuskegee did.

It took about 40 years for that person to blow the whistle, Ron. How many hundreds, or even thousands of people had to have been involved and keeping silent in those 40 years, including at least one very high level member of the federal administration at the time.

I don't agree that thousands would have needed to know what was going on in order to be involved. Highly compartmentalized operations can be accomplished with relatively few people knowing what's really going on until after the fact. And then, afterwards, the people involved have a stake in keeping things a secret, because they, themselves, have become complicit, even though they may not have known what they were becoming involved in before hand. And we know for a fact that there are numerous people worldwide who make their living conducting black ops and other kinds of covert operations, many of which involve the loss of civilian life. We usually don't ever know what these people do, but sometimes we find out, but not necessarily because the people involved have come forward about what they were doing.

And many, many people have come forward about 9/11, but you can see for yourself how much trouble they can get into for doing it. They are being threatened with all kinds of things for coming forward, by the government and by others. But they are still doing it.
