    It takes at least half a kilo just to melt through the hood of a car

    Counter argument: if you did this at home on a hobby budget, imagine what is possible with a high tech lab and a military budget.

      You are grossly overestimating military budget spending. Now, a private contractor with a government contract, on the other hand, maybe. As long as they didn’t waste it and delivered on schedule. Wait, that doesn’t happen either.

        IF a private contractor can hijack 4 planes in the most heavily guarded airspace in the world without scrambling a single defence fighter, then they can source Nanothermite on schedule.

        Not saying that happened, but suitable explosives are not the weakest link in the 9/11 conspiracy theories.
