And as far as placing thermite... do you really think the support beams are exposed in skyscrapers? They are encased in concrete and fireproofing material. That's why you drill, and that's why you use shaped charges.
Bah - all that drilling, and torch-cutting of rebar, and support weakening they do in construction jobs is really just to run up the billing rate - it serves no purpose :D

Further proof you have no idea what you are talking about even on the surface. Nice try trying to seem informed.

Typo - meant demolition typed construction. Doesn't really matter - all the tinfoil in the world couldn't wrap that swollen head of yours, Mr. 3D.

So far you proved that you don't have a point to prove. By all means continue.

You're not trying to prove anything anymore... you're just trying to get the last word in.

its been proven that they planned for it before.
ignored

And also rejected - which is convientlycompletely ignored by those that publish such a story or buried in small print at the bottom of the pages.

To Kennedy's credit he did reject this plan, however the point being that such plans were (and are?) approved by the joint cheifs without the authors being charged with treason.

edit-
Kinda makes you wonder how many other plans with said objectives have been put forward, and how many of them were accepted/rejected. The author of this plan retired with full military pension and was never prosecuted for this crime. Dont think its a crime? Try penning up a plan like this yourself with real intent on commiting it and see how long your free on the streets. Moral is, if your a joint cheif its OK, if your joe citizen, your a terrorist.
