These September 11 memorials are extremely difficult for me because I do not now and have never believed this was the work of outside terrorists.
Several years ago I watched a documentary about the "bringing down" of .. I think it was the Sears building .. or some old icon in .. maybe Michigan (or some other state - details are fuzzy). A demolition company specializing in this line of work was filmed from the planning stage .. as they inspected, planned, set the explosives, pushed the timer and brought that building down. I remember very clearly the sight of how that building folded into itself. This demolition was preceded by a miniscule inspection of the entire building .. crawling through walls and ceilings inspecting things like steel structure, riveting, any weakness that may have happened during the years since it was built. The actual planning stage was using the original blue prints plus all updates over the years. These plus the inspection notes were used in deciding where the charges were to be placed. There were thousands of charges in all support positions on both the outside framing and interior stairwells and elevator shafts of this building. The idea being that the interior charges would go fractions of moments before the exterior charges bringing the outside walls toward the center. The second stage was the physical placing of the charges and the timers .. taking into account any of those now existing weaknesses .. a huge engineering task. These charges must be placed in precision order and the timers must go off EXACTLY in the right order .. the results have the building folding in on itself floor by floor .. and in this documentary this was a successful demolition. .. in short .. there is weeks and months or longer of work involved to bring about a controlled demolition. .. an explosion out of this precision order could topple the building .. having it "lay down" lengthwise. 2 planes hit and 3 buildings were "brought down" .. 1 building had a small fire that did not and could not have caused structural damage. I don't believe I am the only one who watched that horrible day as those buildings collapsed perfectly down into themselves ... and had their blood run cold .. because, if what I was witnessing was true, then this attack could only have come from home. There is no other way in my mind that anyone without official, authorized consent could possibly have had such intimate contact with those buildings over months of time .. because there is no other way that all 3 buildings could have happened the way they did. I knew then and I know it now .. these were controlled demolitions. I also know that the horror I feel is more so because I believe my own did it to me. My heart twists to know that there are so many others who believe as I do and have the additional burden of having lost a loved one in that fury.
