And before poop chimes in suggesting a "scaled down replica" is a crazy idea

Thanks for the cue.

I don't know if it's a crazy idea or not. Has anyone tried it? If it was a plausible way to test things, you'd think someone would have tried it by now.

I do know there are a lot of engineers who say the towers fell too fast, and especially building 7 which wasn't even hit. I wouldn't be shocked to find out it was a false flag.

As for the 'we'll never know' hypothesis, that was said about JFK too. A few deathbed confessions and released documents later, I think we can be pretty confident it was a coup d'etat. It sure as hell wasn't Oswald acting alone.

The reason 9/11 probably doesn't get the same scrutiny is because it so deftly placed the blame on a foreign entity, and so much of US policy followed from it, that the amount of cognitive dissonance you'd have to overcome to convince the average person it was a false flag is probably close to insurmountable.

Case in point: Before he got whacked, the Joint Chiefs of Staff presented Kennedy with a plan to enact a pre-emptive nuclear strike against the USSR. The logic was that war with them was inevitable, so better to take them out now while we still had a large advantage in nuclear capability. They estimated something like 100 million Russian dead vs. 10 million US dead. Kennedy said "So we should start World War III? Thanks, but no thanks."

A lot of them then complained that he was "soft on communism."

That's the kind of mental cases were working in high level national security jobs at the time, and I'd be surprised if the mentality of those people has changed much over the years.
