The AE911Truth Petition
To the Members of the House of Representatives and of the Senate of the United States of America,
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 – specifically the collapses of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story and therefore the 9/11 investigation must be re-opened and must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

All my experience points to a perfect controlled demolition of all the 3 buildings. The twin tower buildings are designed to take into consideration forces including planes hitting them. The structure should be able to stand with huge temperature fluxes and fires could not have caused the perfect free fall collapse of the buildings - impossible! Who demolished the buildings? Not the planes or the fires. This needs to be investigated and fought by every person interested in truth and justice.

Responsible for calculating all wind, earthquake, dead load, and live loads and specifying the required steel, concrete, and combination members as a result of the governing loads.
I read the NIST report and do not agree with their input load criteria. I also find it impossible that steel would become molten at the temperatures reached by burning of jet fuel. I believe nano-thermite or some other explosives must have been used. Regardless of WTC 1 and 2, nothing in the official story explains how WTC 7 failed. The use of the term 'pulled' is self explanatory in my opinion. This was clearly a controlled demolition.

From a material science perspective, this 'fall' is simply impossible. It is an obvious controlled demolition. Simple physics can easily show that.

I am not an Architect and not a member of your group, but I have been a member of ny9/11truth, ny9/11t-action and nyccan.org for the past 6 years. I have collected many signatures for the 9/11 Ballot Initiative here in NYC for a new independent investigation of 9/11. Unfortunately our hard work and determination were slighted when the 70 000 signatures were eliminated by the NY City Clerk, thus gagging the voices of 70 000 New Yorkers. I am German born but a naturalized US citizen, traveled all over the world as a PAA in flight purser, retired now, but not retired to do everything in my power to get the truth out about 9/11.
My initial response to the collapse of the towers and building 7 into their footprints was that no building would collapse in this fashion having been hit by a plane. Building 7 in particular was strange, as it was not struck by a plane, and the fires that one could see smoldering and not raging were not enough to bring the building down in such a fashion. For a while I was in denial, but then I heard Dr. David Ray Griffin speak here in NY at a 9/11truth meeting and he convinced me that not all of what our government had been telling us was true. After that I continued reading, especially the scientific data and became an active member in ny9/11truth.

I've been working in the software field with 10+ years of professional experience. My interest primarily lies in economics and the corresponding policies that follow.
I was first introduced to 911 around 2005/2006 when I saw 3 documentaries, Loose Change, 911 Mysteries: Demolitions, and Fahrenheit 911. While at that point in time, I was not very convinced by some points shown in them, the one that caught my attention instantly was the towers falling. The more I watched it, the more I was convinced there was something very seriously wrong here. In the recent past, I have revisited 911, and had a look at it in a more objective manner. Here is what stands on top of my list today: 1. Eyewitness reports and video evidence have been completely ignored and kept aside. I would think, this is the first step when it comes to solving any crime. One need not look further to be convinced that something is seriously wrong with the 911 investigation and media reports!!! 2. Three buildings that are designed to withstand enormous loads, 2 of which are 110 stories tall, and had an acre sized floors, and both falling at free fall speed like there is absolutely no resistance below. Seriously? Did the building resistance decide to take an abrupt vacation and crumple down to earth? 3. The energy simply doesn't even begin to add up for the buildings to get demolished! I don't even need to get a calculator. A building with an acre floor span, 110 stories tall, is designed to take loads multiple times its actual load. The energy required to demolish such a building and so quickly, is off the charts. Anyone who has a basic understanding of real world science will tell you that the massive energy hole between what was needed and what was available means that the extra energy had to come from another source. 4. WORST CASE scenario, if something seriously had gone wrong in the buildings, I would absolutely expect the buildings to tilt and fall over. Again, this is a worst case scenario!! Falling straight down through themselves and their enormous resistance, and this at free fall speed, is not even a possibility here. No way. Not happening. 5. The buildings crushed/demolished themselves in such a way that would make it seem that buildings are brittle by nature. 6. If 911 happened the way it was told, it should be called The Amazing Coincidences Day! There were that many amazing co-incidences and all in the same day. Even if one of these amazing coincidences happened on one day alone, would be quite amazing, and we saw a spate of these happen all on the same day. Jaw dropping!!! Enormous capital is controlling most of our planet, and it has strategically made media very expensive. This has in turn coupled media tightly with enormous capital; hence, media is now the voice of capital interests. This is why media is no longer free and unbiased, and exactly why mainstream media does not cover 911.

I am an inventor using the knowledge of nanotechnology and singularity to develop products that will allow our own natural health wellness and longevity. With my background in the physics of gravity I knew when it was happening early am on 9/11/01 those buildings were coming down due to sophisticated explosives.
My office was across street from the 69th Regiment Armory, Lexington Ave @ 26th St where Mayor Giuliani sent family member to look for their love one's after the buildings collapsed. Thousands of people on this small street of 26th believing they would find their loved ones. They came with photo's and many stories. With posters of pictures and contact information. Every inch of wall space was posted with people who were not coming home as they were annihilated, meaning reduced to nonexistence as were the computers, desk, chairs, refrigerators, sinks, toilets etc etc in largest buildings in NYC to dust. Fires do not do that. When i get back to FL 3rd week in April I will send this site and post photos that were in NYC Newspapers in the days after 9/11. Of the people trapped in the burning buildings looking out the windows, staring at the ground from the roof. Beautiful blue sky behind the them. Other's in free fall from the roofs as they knew there was no escape.Destiny had arrived at the door. These are the faces of death when a person knows it is over. These are the photo's all 9/11 truther movement sites need to Post as their identity in why they seek the Truth. It is for the PEOPLE LOST that Day in a Instant and for their FAMILIES and Love Ones. The Truther Movement is about consciousness and taking responsibility for being Alive on Earth. This is what we are doing. It is not a conspiracy when one chooses to evolve into being the HUMAN we were put on Earth to be. But consciousness, being present in the moment scares people who want power and control as their personal lives are all about escape and manipulation... If we all expose the truth of 9/11, then they have to face the truth of themselves and the distorted reality they created for themselves...Denial is a very very powerful powerful emotion. Wives of Tiger Woods, Jesse James had to have seen the warning signs of their husbands behaviors but the need for a pretty perfect world, allows the mind, to create shrouds of illusion so they do not have to face the PAIN of Truth and Reality. What People do not understand, Facing the Truth, accepting it, living with it actually sets them free to having a much more satisfying Rewarding Healthier Lives.

I have a B.S. in Civil Engineering, a B.S. in Engineering Physics. My emphasis has been on the seismic retrofit of existing structures for masonry, concrete, and steel buildings.
Buildings with localized damage to vertical structural elements (columns) cannot collapse globally and in a uniform fashion. This is a physical impossibility never once observed prior to 9/11/2001. Steel is a ductile material (it flexes, deforms, stretches, large amounts before fracture). In the case of all three WTC towers, ductile behavior is not observed. We see no large deformations of the columns prior to collapse. Instead, we observe sudden, catastrophic failure. No energy is dissipated through deformation. A free-fall collapse. Impossible in a structure where columns are not hinged (i.e. severed at the floors).

I'm a forensic consulting engineer and I serve as an expert witness for cases involving mechanical components & systems, product liability, personal injury, and mechanical analysis. Other forensic applications of my expertise are in the area of product and equipment failures, HVAC design evaluation, and vehicular accident reconstruction. I'm licensed in two states and I'm a member of NCEES, ASME, IEEE, and NSPE. Dear Verification Team: If you list my education in the following manner (with or without the GPA data, as you deem best), the applicability of the data will likely be easier for your viewers to understand than data on the current AE911 website:
I was introduced to the AE911Truth investigation a few years ago by Scott Grainger PE, an active member of the AE911Truth team and a very well respected colleague of mine in the forensic consulting engineering business. Since then, I have been following your activities with great interest and applaud your team for your ongoing efforts. I have seen a couple of videos by your computer simulation crew in Alaska and have just finished watching video #2 of your current 'Blueprint for Truth' webinar series. Your videos, activities and discussions are, indeed, logical and convincing.

High school graduate from Baylor School. I was sitting in class when the incident occurred. At the time, I was completely lost to the world. I didn't know anything about the Twin Towers; what they were, where they were, their significance, etc. As the story unfolded to as what supposedly happened, I felt as if the story was fabricated from the beginning. As I grew older, I grew wiser and began to open my eyes to what was really happening in the world. Continued to research the 9/11 event and started wondering if there was anything that could be done even with all the hardcore evidence proving the government's stories are false. I'm glad I came across this site, seeing that there is something that can be done to move in that direction of actually getting the truth of what went down.
I don't believe there were people on those planes.

One does not have to be an architect or engineer to see that the official version about 9/11 cannot be true. No building falls in on itself as did WTC 7. It is very important for the whole world to know who blew up the buildings. Man mu' kein Architekt oder Ingeneur sein um zu sehen, dass die offizielle Version 'ber 9/11 nicht der Wahrheit entsprechen kann. Kein Geb'ude f'llt so in sich zusammen wie es das WT 7 tat.

I am a 34 year old man and have seen enough to know that I can tell when someone is hiding something. Vague answers or ignoring the questions that have been put forth by the American people as well as answers that contradict science is enough to tell me we haven't been given the the truth. I want it.
The evidence put forth by numerous entities all aligns and speaks to much more truth than the hidden facts given in the governments report.

On the day it happened, I was sitting on my couch in my apartment waiting to catch a bus to LA for my brothers funeral when I turned on the TV and there it was all over the TV, no matter what channel you turned on. From that moment on, I have never felt that it was the product of some foreign group. I have always believed that it had something to do with our government in some way or another.

"I felt from the very beginning that 911 was an inside job to help justify the on-going government war agenda and to reap huge profits for the Bankers, CEO's, Politicians and Countries who support this war machine...and of course all of this being done in the name of the world's taxpayers, at the expense of the world's taxpayers, didn't you know?...This video clip didn't last long, but at the very beginning there was a clip showing one of the airplanes entering a trade tower and the nose of it exiting the building fully intact...With my many years working with these types of airplanes, and knowing only too well that the nose cone is by far, not the strongest part of the airplane, there is simply no way the nose of the airplane could survive all those steel beams still intact...no way!!! Too many questions left unanswered...too many lies and incompetence by NIST...A government organization doing the investigation for another government organization...Can you say ""HUGE CONFLICT OF INTEREST???"" We need a new investigation...""NOW""..."
"Demolition of some sort...without a doubt in my heart...Both Building 7 and a Trade Tower had bombs go off on the lower levels...not to mention the many levels seen visually on the video-recordings...I also heard that a Building 6 was damaged with the interior being mostly demolished...what happened here?...no plane...no fire...Who owned this one and what insurance pay-off happened here? Many people heard bombs go off so why wasn't this avenue fully investigated and accurately reported? Why was ANY of the debris of the trade towers' ""crime scene"" trucked out before a thorough investigation had been completed? Why was most of the trade tower debris pulverized?...I've watched ""September 2001 - The New Pearl Harbour""... WOW!!! How could anyone, after watching this documentary, NOT question the official government version of events? Who has profited the most from this crime???? It was also a great distraction from Rumsfield's speech the day before saying that trillions of taxpayers' monies were unaccounted for...hmmmmm!!!!"
