looks to me like the damage was in a very centralized and specific location:

those floors look like somewhere between the 7th and 13th. here is a list of tennants:

looks 90% likely that some sort of a "financial institution" office was on fire, but the windows being blown out indicates a bomb blast (imo).

since the building was going to be dropped fully later anyway, the question becomes why do earlier damage to it? why blow up 3 or 4 floors of offices? what it translates to (for me) is targets inside wtc7, BEFORE collapse.

one possible theory: depending on what time these floors were blown up, and what direct institutions were affected, one might be able to do some sort of sneaky trading or money laundering or some subterfuge related to finance. there would be this window of one or two hours before everything in the financial world was shut down, that you could exploit to some advantageous end, and maybe some of these particular offices getting bombed helped to facilitate that. yes - purely speculative.

but regardless of why or for what use, there's almost no doubt (in my mind) that bombs blew up those windows, nothing else could do it. i thought (before viewing the vid) that maybe some people were trapped and they broke some windows for air. but its wtc7, and the damage is so uniform and centered in such a specific area, that its hard to come up with another plausible explantion. imo there were bombs inside the place that went off exactly where you see in the stills. if you could identify which offices were in those exact locations, you could further hypothesize about the possible motive(s) for demolishing them earlier (rather than later).


the cars on fire - a distraction tactic and intentional time consumer - intended to slow down the vigilant rescuers who would have all rushed into the building to save people. just like with the other wtc's, the designers of the plot attempted an act of grace/mercy. they needed a body count to include civil servants like cops and fireman, so the outrage would blind the public and open them for programming. but they didnt want to wipe out the entire police/fire force nor kill more people than was really necessary. so to keep collateral damage to a minimum, at least where non-targets* like the rescuers are concerned, various busy work was strewn about the OUTSIDE or lobby levels of the buildings, to keep them outside (or very close to it) instead of stuck inside, lest they be stuck during the eventual collapses (demo's).

*opposite of nontargets are targets, people meant to never leave the buildings alive. financial institutions like cantor fitzgerald come to mind...




reminder:
most of the above are my opinions and NOT provable as fact,
so take with whatever grain of salt you deem necessary...
