Jet fuel is not explosive; it's essentially kerosene and needs to be finely atomized to combust. The mostly black smoke is evidence that the temperatures were far too low and insufficient to even weaken the steel, which included 47 box columns comprising the central spine of the towers.

The energy required for the observed destruction isn't there by at least an order of magnitude. Portions of the building ejected sideways (and even upward) more than a building width at the top at the beginning. The "pancake" collapse theory is ridiculous because it couldn't possibly have occurred in the short time available (almost as quickly as the acceleration of gravity would allow) since the stories got progressively stronger as the floor number decreased.

The government, or rather those directing it, needed the public on board for acceptance of war in the Middle East.
