Why he might be annoying:

    He is a favorite target of 9/11 conspiracy theorists.
    He angered many people, including Donald Trump by planning to replace the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers with the Freedom Tower.
    After 9/11 he had an insurance policy for $3.55 billion but sought $7.1 billion.

Why he might not be annoying:

    His building was the site of the deadliest terrorist attacks in American history where over 2,000 people were killed.
    His buildings were the targets of terrorist attacks before, when a bombing in the basement injured hundreds and killed six.
    He said he ordered them to 'pull' WTC 7, which means to get figghfighters out of the building once it became apparent it would collapse.
    Some conspiracy theorists believe this means he ordered them to blow up the building.
