The towers were in the WTC complex itself, surrounded by the other buildings of the WTC complex. Being as those buildings surrounded the towers, it's obviously logical that the surrounding buildings would have suffered the most damage.

Why are you comparing WTC7 with the Bankers Trust Building? These two buildings were nearly a city block apart. When I say "city block" I mean the distance between WTC7 and the Bankers Trust Building was FULL city block, which including both towers and multiple other buildings.
Why did WTC7 fall and not this other building? Gee, I wonder why. Why don't you question why the buildings next to WTC7 didn't fall? All of the buildings suffered various degrees of damage that day, some more than others.

What do you mean "everything happening in the world right now"? Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. The economic issues we are having isn't because of 9/11, or Afghanistan, but because of the US housing market. What's happening in Libya has nothing to do with 9/11, nor does what's happened in Egypt have anything to do with 9/11. The only thing that 9/11 caused was tight security at airports (and tighter security over all), we invaded Afghanistan, and we are now hunting down terrorists.
