Engineers Say World Trade Center Collapse Was Planned

WILTON – The premise presented by several civil engineers in the documentary “Improbable Collapse: The Demolition of Our Republic” is that the World Trade Center towers and Building 7 could not have collapsed as they did simply from the impact of the airplanes or the heat of the fires.

They had been constructed to withstand such events. The collapse only could have been caused by a controlled, planned implosion, they said, such as those frequently used to take down buildings.

The discussion, led by filmmaker Michael Berger, centered on who could have planned such a thing, how and why.

The film was shown as part of the “Confronting the Issues” series sponsored by Women Making a Difference.

The last film in the series, “Out of Balance: Exxon Mobile’s Impact on Climate Change,” a documentary made by New Hampshire filmmaker Tom Jackson, will be shown at 4:30 p.m. Sunday.

Berger said he researched the question for about four years, full time for about three years.

The picture Berger painted was one of a cover-up on the part of the government, control of the media and the government by huge corporations, and the need for corporations to have the United States involved in a war because they can make huge profits during wartime.

He spoke of apparent advance knowledge on the part of Wall Street traders, the volume of trading of stocks of the airlines involved, American and United, and some of the Trade Center’s larger tenants.

He looked at rec­ords of trading, he said:

“All of this is public record,” he said, but most of it has been ignored by the media after an initial report."

“Why has no one challenged the 9/11 Commission report?

Why has no one challenged the destruction of our republic?”
