You are really that stupid.There was no reason to think WTC 7 would collapse. The debris damage was actually insignificant.
NCSTAR 1A pg 55 [pdf pg 97]
The initial westward progression and the overall speed of the collapse was not sensitive to the extent of the estimated structural damage to WTC 7 due to the debris from the collapse of WTC 1. When the global collapse was nearly complete, there was some small sensitivity to the extent of the initial damage in the southwest portion of the building.
The normal office fires were far less severe than other high rise fires.
They knew it was going to be imploded.
