IN BAD TASTE: Putting the blame where it belongs?
Actually the plane damaged the structure but the redundant supports held it
up, the heat of the fire is what killed the redundant supports and they
collapsed. It was the combination of the ramming/crash and the fire that did
what it did. I don't think the planners of the attack expected the collapse
to happen either.
