Steel doesn't melt from jet liner fuel.
The fires underground lasted six weeks, minimum.
What caused them in the first place? Airline fuel?

If you were aware of the temperature at which iron liquefies, you would be surprised.

Thermate is a military grade incendiary. I believe they hold the copyright. Thermite on the other hand, upon which thermate is based, is a more common material. It's use in the initial construction of the WTC wouldn't produce residue in the concrete dust of its destruction, nor is its presence on site even confirmed by anything you've written...

And what makes you right? Is there any testimony of any explosive event besides the plane impacts anywhere that day?

I think that yes, people who worked in the WTC (for 20 and 30 years) would know the difference between explosions that occurred beneath them while they were in the basement levels and pushed them up from the ground and explosive events that occurred above their heads...
