If you do your research, yes those buildings were made to take more than a plane, and in fact had stabilized with little or no structural damage except to the localized impact area. There was no physical reason for them to collapse.

Furthermore, why even bother with a straight up and down demolition if you're trying to fool people. Wouldn't it make more logic to have the collapse act the same as your everyday collapse?

At the first basement attack they blew the thing too far from any central support columns; and even then blowing one wouldn't have led to a collapse.
And they did try to make it seem as a "normal" collapse because of the plane impacts, but those can't be cause for collapse...

Ok, with one building that would wash. With THREE? and totally different causes? And aluminum plane impacts on floor # 75 0r 80 won't weaken floor #60, 50 20 or blow out the lobby. There's some "weirdness" that's acceptable, but that three or four planes can fly out of range and not be intercepted for HOURS, that three buildings hit by two planes can all smoothly flow to the ground without apparent reason, is beyond the realm of being "just the way things are."
