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.

This was a masterpiece of demolition. Only with the full cooperation of the top intelligence, security and military departments of the U.S. government could this have been pulled off. The evidence has been available to all since 9/11. Everything blew apart in a smooth, rapid, uniform demolition wave.

I was educated with a broad understanding of mechanical, chemical, electrical, and structural engineering fundamentals. I have a basic understanding of concrete, timber, and steel design.
I initially accepted the heating-theory when the WTC buildings collapsed because it sounded plausible at first glance and I didn't feel any compulsion to examine or think about it any further. However, upon seeing Loose Change, Fabled Enemies, and listening to the makers of those videos in person and listening to Richard Gage in person and referencing it to my background in structures and thermal dynamics, it became apparent to me that this was yet another fiasco/cover up ala Oklahoma City. I even manufactured my own refutations of the official version for the layman: 1. If you pour any flammable liquid on a flat surface (like a beam), what is the hottest point? Answer: it's at the tip of the flame NOT at the base so all that fuel spilling randomly around the buildings could not possibly have melted/softened so much steel mass from such an uncontrolled fire (just pour some alcohol on a cement floor, light it, then put your finger inside the flame near the floor and then at the tip of the flame and compare the temps). 2. Heat dissipates rapidly in 3-dimensions so couldn't possibly have the focused or confined temps necessary to melt steel, most of it would be carried away by air. 3. Steel itself also dissipates heat rapidly so any heating that occurred at the site of the fire would immediately spread throughout the steel frame disallowing any temperatures hot enough to melt steel anywhere other than the site of the fire if at all. 4. Note how it conventionally requires an acetylene torch using PURE oxygen at a FOCUSED point using only the TIP of the flame to melt even a SMALL area of steel - the WTC buildings had only AIR (not pure O2), had DIFFUSE heat, and over a LARGE random area - how could anyone think that was sufficient to cause failure of even one piece of steel let alone the ENTIRE steel structure ?!? 5. Jets and cars burn their fuel continuously within confined steel enclosures yet I have never heard of them melting due to this heat. 6. Even if a steel building could collapse due to heat, with a RANDOM fire heating solid structural steel RANDOMLY, I would expect a RANDOM failure leaving some columns collapsed, some columns twisted, some columns bending off to the side, and many columns still standing straight up in the air - NOT a TOTAL crumbling collapse into a nice neat footprint into the ground! Only a planned and focused demolition using explosives set at key structural locations throughout the building could cause this. The fact that you don't need any sophisticated theories or secret evidence to prove this, and the fact that you can simply use everyday logic and experiences along with mainstream media's own videos to expose the falsity of their own pet explanation for 9/11 makes this petition a slam dunk - assuming it is presented to a logical, ethical, and receptive audience (oh, oh).

I have been working at my current job ever since I graduated. My line of work involves designing, writing up and maintaining a modern web 2.0 site. I specialize in Ruby on Rails on MySQL with open-source technologies.
The planes did not cause the collapse of the buildings; explosives did. The WTC buildings collapsed in a way very similar to a building rigged for controlled demolition. The official story did not adequately explain the explosions that many witnessed and heard at ground zero; the government even tried to deny it. There are just too many coincidences of events leading up to 9/11, starting with planes not intercepted to military personnel playing war games. It's not hard to see that those responsible are amongst those who benefited the most from this tragedy, including but not limited to big oil and private reconstruction contractors.

There was not enough energy delivered to the buildings by the impacting aircraft to destroy all the structural materials. - - - - The absence of any major components after the destruction is proof that massive amounts of energy were delivered to the buildings by planted explosive devices at the critical sections of the structure. - - - - The symmetrical collapse due to asymmetrical damage is at odds with the principles of structural mechanics.

When I watched it in 2001, I was a civil engineering student. I was shocked by the collisions, but when the collapse occurred, I saw that I was facing a fraud. I felt lonely and caricatured, even in the academic environment about my extravagant point of view. In 2010 , with YouTube, I became aware of WC7 and looked to see if there were other loners (in that specific point of view) like me. My analogy in 2001 is that the probability of gravitational collapse was the same as the Towers traveling to the moon. Something else had to have happened. Now in 2022, after a similar collapse in São Paulo which I was equally astonished at, as I remembered 9/11, I was inspired to sign. In Brazil a family unit had collapsed in the Wilton Paes de Almeida building, with very similar characteristics and now, watching your video, there is the possibility of using thermite. The church side remained intact and there was no overturning or turning of the structure. Returning, that's how I started to watch your work on YouTube. Importantly, I have never denied the crash of the planes or what happened to the Pentagon. My conclusion was, if there was so much heat to melt steel, how there were living people and glass in the windows, and more frightening, how the steel and every beam or pillar broke horizontally in the same second and the other structures below with microseconds of difference, symmetrically and in perfect structural and chronometric order. So, I don't know what type of explosive they used or what technology was involved. I can only guarantee that a gravitational fall, ordered in time and space, symmetrical, is impossible. Also, I cannot say who is behind the implosion, but certainly, they used a very advanced technology. Without a doubt, it was not caused by the planes or plane fuel, even if the plane was bigger and carried a volcano inside it, it would be impossible to orderly destroy it so symmetrically.

I am an electrical engineer with degrees from Princeton and Stanford University as well as a MPH degree in Environmental Science from Harvard University and an MBA from the University of Cincinnati. I am not a mechanical or structural engineer but had courses in mechanics and experience in aerosol physics in the 1970's. While working at the Environmental Protection Agency during 9/11, I was made aware of 'red particle' samples taken by EPA Region II but have no other first hand knowledge of the event.
I saw the WTC twin towers and building 7 go down live on TV. I saw the 'pre-announcement' of building 7 going down before it actually did on Fox News. Since then I have been skeptical about the whole 911 thing.

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. Es ist f'r die ganze Welt sehr wichtig zu erfahren wer die Geb'uden gesprengt hatte.

Independent businessman with some 160 college credits from 5 or 6 universities but no degree. Majors were psychology, biology, mathematics and chemical engineering but never earned a degree. At almost 61 I do not want to believe the greatness of the USA is over.
My nephew and EOD military man came home from Iraq and showed me Loose Change a few years ago. He got out of the military because of what he knew our government did to Americans on our soil and he did not want to die overseas for that same government. I want the truth and am in fear of those that destroyed so much that day. I am so proud of your courage to pursue truth.

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!!!!"

Absolutely no formal education in physics or engineering outside of basic information gathered through the California Public K-12 Educational system.
After examining the footage and hearing the official report, it is painfully obvious that there needs to be actual and various independent and formal investigations into the events that transpired on and leading up to September 11, 2001.
