One man who said this way before 9/11 was killed that day, but he says this on tape, I saw it a few years before.

Explanation of why the towers fell, the fires from the jet fuel did much more damage than the impact of the planes. This also explains to an extent why it may have appeared as though the building was imploded using explosives. The flashes of light seen in the building can be explained as shorted out transformers in the building itself.

The only reason I could see for the government attacking itself at the Pentagon is that the 9/11 attacks at the WTC left them a perfect disguise that may intice the people of the U.S. to go to war.
