They can, but it is sort of the wrong approach. Fuel explosive power depends on it's mixture with air. All things considered, the impact was largely kinetic, and quite awesome in that regard. I would like to know whether the plane cut through the amy of the steel beams, though I suspect it was just shredded. The meaningful calculation is how much heat the burning fuel was able to produce over time, and whether any sort of built in foam systems could be devised to defeat that.
I read somewhere that the number one product and export of Afghanistan is opium. So it looks like we might get to kill two birds with one stone on this one. Can anyone confirm these Afghani production and export facts as well?
The war might put a real crimp in some of our CIA activities and capabilities to deal in drugs there. By the same token, our history of doing that there may be part of the reason the administration is so eager to go there.
I would have to side with the idea that Osama, and others who planned this had no idea that the buildings would come down. I think they would have wanted the burned out hulks to remain in the great satans skyline.
Our countries reation and call for war are a much bigger blowback to them than they had in mind. They wanted us defeated and frightened. Not empowered. We are so much more dangerous now than ever.
LOL... I wondered where the tinfoil hats where. Looks like I found one.
