How can they say that if they don’t even know why the other building fell down?

Even without a direct hit from the storm, heavy rain and high winds could overload the remaining, compromised structure. The risk is enhanced by growing doubts as to the quality of the construction. Steel rebar reinforcement specified in the plans seems absent at key points and to be of poor quality.

There is a church nearby, St Joseph’s, and the priests from there have been over to the collapse site to offer prayers and have also had services in the church for the victims. I was glad to see that.

Just think and pray for the residents and families of that complex. A mere 10 days ago they were living a good life on the beach in southeast Florida. Today, the survivors must almost envy the dead as their homes now exist only as rubble! Proof that even in the best of times (tongue-in-cheek) and best of nations, disaster can be VERY close at hand!

Pray G-d, hear our prayers for these poor souls, that your touch may comfort, that their knowledge of You may give solace! Amen!

Really? Last I knew the firefighters were not allowed to go into the building either. Feeding the cats from a bucket truck... terrified the animals. Just idiotic endeavors like that infuriate me.

Coco the cat, Mimi the cat, a dog left in a crate...

I get there was perceived significant risk, but the owners knew exactly where their pets were located.

Yep, and they demolished it on Independence Day of all days... Yet some people keep blindly believing the “news” and government.

No it wouldn’t, the government would remove it from the internet as much as they could.

“From shootouts in German cities between Delta Force and the CIA”

If this happened, it was the CIA shooting first at some in Delta force who the CIA did not “install” as some of the infiltrators the CIA has in Delta Force, etc.

Also what proof do you have that what you call “conspiracies” (a term created by the EVIL CIA to make most people not believe what is actually the truth) are not true?

What tunnels are you talking about?

This?

Israeli commander aiding Surfside rescue says more bodies and tunnels were discovered overnight

https://matzav.com/israeli-commander-aiding-surfside-rescue-says-more-bodies-and-tunnels-were-discovered-overnight/

The Commander of the Israeli National Rescue Unit said search and rescue personnel found more bodies overnight in the Champlain Towers South collapse in Surfside, Florida.

“At the last 12 hours we found some more people,” Colonel Golan Vach, Commander of the Israeli National Rescue Unit, told CNN’s John Berman on “New Day” Wednesday. “We found people. Unfortunately, they are not alive.”

Vach said first-responders discovered new tunnels in the rubble Tuesday night, which allowed for the discovery of more bodies. Vach said search and rescue teams were working in the space between the collapsed balconies.

“These tunnels that we found right now were almost the first to be big enough to enable people to stay between them. Most of the collapse is very, very tight. The collapse was major,” Vach said.

What he is talking about here are not tunnels under the building that existed before the collapse but tunnels or more precisely “voids” between the pancaked floors, the spaces between the collapsed balconies.
