It wasn't thermite, it was nano thermate. The former is an incendiary, the latter was used as a military explosive. It was one of the smoking guns of 9/11. Nano thermate is an extremely intimately mixed material. In 2001 there were literally only a few companies in the world that could make it. It should have been easy to find out who the supplier of it was. But no one ever traced this path. NIST never even tested for explosives.
The debunkers like to claim it was just red paint with rust on the back. But when the material was tested it was extremely exothermic, releasing it's energy in a very short burst. It also had a much higher peak that than of thermite. It would be like claiming they used explosive paint in the buildings.

I had to remove the second mention of "nano" to bring it to exactly 300 chars but yes, +1
