You set it on fire. The jet fuel in two pretty much fully fuelled 
jet-liners is going to be a pretty good fire starter and there's a lot 
of flammable stuff in a skyscraper that's in use, including the steel 
frame if you get it hot enough

400 meters is quite a long way up in the air, and a fierce fire 
generates a lot of air-circulation.

Star Wars never took off. It frightened the Russians into spending more 
than they could afford on defense, but it seems to have been confined to 
paper studies.

Generating enough power in orbit to knock down a building fast is a long 
way off.
