No other sreel structured building has ever collaped due to fire. Please do your own research.

Suddenly, THREE buildings collapse one the same day. Sorry, but I’m a realist.

That is utter nonsense. First, it is false. Many other steel buildings have collapsed due to fire alone — with no aircraft impact damage. A famous bank building burned to the ground — though made of steel — in NYC 100 years ago. Architectural reviws of the famous bank fire and collapse wrote that “STEEL IS ONE OF THE WORST CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS TO SURVIVE A FIRE”

The McCormack Place Exhibition Building collapsed in only 30 minutes from fire alone in Chicago around 1968.

Dozens of steel skyscrapers have partially collapsed. That is, sprinklers and fire fighters were able to put the fire out after it reached only a few floors. YET THOSE FLOORS COLLAPSED, despite the steel construction.

Second, it is irrelevant because the WTC towers collapsed NOT from fire alone but from massive physical damage from a 140 ton aircraft striking at 540 MPH.

So the comment is deceitful, dishonet, and deceptive.

Third, when three things happen at once it means that we doubt they are UNRELATED. We look for a common cause.

Because there was a common cause, there is nothing remarkable about 3 buildings in the same complex being destroyed by the same, common cause.

2 110 story buildings collapse and the falling debris damages and destroys other nearby buildings. Not exactly something that taxes any brain with common sense.
