Why didn't they activate the "controlled demo" in 93?
Most likely because the buildings couldn't be
covertly rigged with explosives at the time, due primarily to the fact that the public security and elevator maintenance employee pools hadn't yet been sufficiently compromised.
The '93 bombing
did, however, provide part of the rationale behind Governor Pataki's 'privatization' campaign, during which a large number of previously 'public sector' jobs were lost at the WTC when contracts were put up for private bid for the first time in the complex's history. All amid
fully founded allegations of cronyism, BTW.
Furthermore, we know, from local media reports and an extensive write up in
Elevator World magazine, that major "modernization projects" for the main elevator systems in Towers 1 and 2 had been underway for several months prior to 9/11/01. These massive projects would have provided the perfect cover for rigging the buildings in advance, and pretty much in plain sight.
Just use some common sense. How could rigging WTC buildings with explosives been kept a secret during the construction phase? That is completely preposterous.
The notion that the buildings were rigged for controlled demolition at the time of their construction is a pristine example of a likely
intentionally foisted piece of disinformation. Nobody for whom I personally hold a modicum of respect believes that nonsense.
