Implosion

Implosion of a building involves the destruction of the inner supports of a building, causing it to fall in on itself in a controlled and precise manner. The best known example of this type of destruction occurred on September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center.

Like an imploding building, countries and civilizations often implode, their inner supports weakened or destroyed until it collapses into itself. In the five years since 9/11, the American government has made many changes from within in the guise of national security and the "war on terror" (there should be a stamp for that phrase, it is used so often).

Are the changes structurally sound?



The threats of terrorism from outside our borders may not be the greatest danger we face.
