This thread has delivered many different arguments for and against.
Thanks to StickyGreen for providing info on Osama Bin Laden, and thanks to Dollarmansteve for his views on the psychology of the 911 truthers.
Personally I haven't yet come to a conclusion of what really happened that day, and the truth will probably never be known. The amount of information is simply too overwhelming to process, and all the socalled evidence can be tampered with. From both camps.
Many of the conspiracy videos use a lot of unnecessary manipulative propaganda tricks often seen in "documentaries". The psychic stressing background music, voice talking simultaneously while displaying text. The narrator asks many questions before quickly changing topic. "Facts" do not mention their source, but yet they are used as arguments. Pictures are small and unsharp etc. Tinfoil research is just a waste of time.
However this video is interesting.
If the video is true then you clearly see the demolition explosions on WTC7. It could be interesting to look for those flashes in other wtc7 videos, and see if they exist there too.

That is a false statement. A video is a series of pictures with a soundtrack. In the same way as a screenshot can be edited in Photoshop, a video can be doctored to show exactly what someone wants you to believe it is.

I think a building can collapse/tilt in many ways. All those pictures have one thing in common. They are all fairly small in comparison with wtc7 which had to hold the weight of 47 stories, plus structural damage from debris and fire weakening the steel.
And a video showing the fires in WTC7, and also damage on the surrounding buildings.
Just remember that in war the truth is always the first victim.
I must admit this topic is interesting.
