    Per PBS documentary, "Rebuilding America", from 2002 - WTC owner Larry Silverstein relates the decision he made on Sept. 11th regarding Building 7.
    YouTube still has the video from the documentary:

    In talking with NYFD officials he decided to "PULL IT"?

    1. I watched the video
    2. I have ordered the PBS documentary
    3. I would like to know why our government agency has
    only been investigating the collapse of Building 7
    for the last THREE years?
    4. If Silverstein decided to "pull it" - as he stated,
    then how much disinformation is put forth in the NIST
    report to justify their conclusion?

    This is beyond belief. There were security cameras at the Pentagon - as would be expected. Have YOU ever seen a plane? I have never seen a plane - nor any scorched grass, yet the majority of Americans accept the explanation. You may not SEE a plane - OR the damage that would be caused by that type of plane - but trust us - it was really there.
    These stories can only work in THEIR favor if the public is so afraid of being labelled a conspiracy wing-nut, that they stay silent with what are truly senible questions.
