Who Really Downed The WTC?

The intelligence Bush & Co used to go to war is not the only unaswered question for this administration.

Professor Steven E. Jones, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Brigham Young University presents a new paper taking a very good look at how the WTC buildings collapsed.
As you observed, WTC 7 collapsed rapidly and symmetrically -- even though fires were randomly scattered in the building.  WTC 7 fell about seven hours after the Towers collapsed, even though no major persistent fires were visible.  There were twenty-four huge steel support columns inside WTC 7 as well as huge trusses, arranged asymmetrically, along with approximately 57 perimeter columns. (FEMA, 2002, chapter 5.) A symmetrical collapse, as observed, evidently requires the simultaneous “pulling” of most or all of the support columns.  The Second Law of Thermodynamics implies that the likelihood of complete and symmetrical collapse due to random fires as in the “official” theory is small, since asymmetrical failure is so much more likely. On the other hand, a major goal of controlled demolition using explosives is the complete and symmetrical collapse of buildings.
He cites a FEMA report on the WTC 7 collapse:
 
 
The specifics of the fires in WTC 7 and how they caused the building to collapse [“official theory”] remain unknown at this time. Although the total diesel fuel on the premises contained massive potential energy, the best hypothesis [fire/damage-caused collapse] has only a low probability of occurrence. Further research, investigation, and analyses are needed to resolve this issue.
Jones wonders why the explosive-demolition hypothesis, which is suggested by the available data, testable and falsifiable, has not been analyzed in any of the reports funded by the US government. If you watch the video and read the report, you will see that this guy is not just some whacko - he is a serious scientist asking some very important questions!
