The "remote apocalypse" is discussed as workers refuse to return to downtown offices, leading to a decline in urban centers. New York Times employees went on a 24-hour strike, citing issues with wages and the right to work remotely. The hosts predict that many downtown buildings may eventually be destroyed or burned as the office-based economy fails.

President Obama signed H.R. 26, the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015, which keeps the government on the hook for up to $100 billion per terrorist event until 2020. The hosts discuss how insurance companies no longer cover terrorism, leaving taxpayers as the ultimate reinsurers. They reference Larry Silverstein's insurance claims after 9/11 as a precedent for the "scam" of government-backed insurance.

The hosts explore the "special relationship" between the United States and Israel, questioning its historical origins and current influence. They discuss the presence of individuals with ties to Israel within the U.S. government and financial sectors. The conversation touches on whether Israel serves as a buffer state for U.S. oil interests or if the relationship has become inverted.

### World Trade Center 7, NIST Report, Pulse Energy Weapons

- **Episode:** [44: Probably a Super Delegate](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/44-probably-a-super-delegate.md)
- **Published:** 2008-08-23
- **Time:** 58:21–1:01:17
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/44-probably-a-super-delegate/chapter/world-trade-center-7-nist-report-pulse-energy-weapons.md

The official explanation for the collapse of World Trade Center 7 is challenged, with claims that the building was destroyed to eliminate sensitive documents related to Enron and the SEC. A theory is proposed that a "pulse energy weapon" was used on all three towers, rather than traditional explosives. The discussion references Larry Silverstein's "pull it" comment and the idea that the buildings were rigged during prior retrofitting.
