Cia's New York office was in WTC7: "The agency's New York officers have been deeply involved in counterterrorism efforts in the New York area, working jointly with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and other agencies. Many of the most important counterterrorism cases of the last few years, including the bureau's criminal investigations of the August 1998 bombings of two United States Embassies in East Africa and the October 2000 bombing of the U.S.S. Cole in Yemen have been handled out of New York." http://www.wtc7.net/cache/wtc7.htm Philip Dunn Quoting Paul Cockshott <wpc@DCS.GLA.AC.UK>: > I have seen the sites discussing WT7, but I don't see that > controlled demolition is any more likely because of the failure > of this building.
