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.

I have over ten years experience as a Consultant Engineer and am now the Director/owner of an Engineering and Architectural metalwork company. I have worked for three consultancies prior to starting my own business and have designed buildings up to 9 stories high.
Where to start! It is patently obvious to those who have not been brainwashed by the main stream media that the towers could not have failed as the official narrative tries to describe. Thought of the explosive nature, the speed, the symmetry and many other points too numerous to mention must surely lead us to some ask some very searching questions on what really happened?

I received a BS in Architectural Engineering from the University of Wyoming in '98 and worked as a Consulting Mechanical Engineer for 5 years after.
After reviewing the data, photos, video accounts, statements from first responders, explanation for the collapse, etc. I believe that the FEMA explanation is inaccurate and requires further investigation. The upper floors affected by the impact could have caused structural failure, but this does not explain the complete and total failure of the supporting structure of the floors below. The explanation of the fire from the impact and jet fuel causing the total and complete failure of the supporting structures is false due to the relatively low temperatures of the fires and the massive amounts of structural steel at the core of the building. The pancake theory of collapse would support the evidence of several of the lower floors at ground zero. There was no evidence of anything that resembled a floor structure, nor any concrete pieces that were bigger than the size of a fist. This is evidence that would support the use of explosives instead of a natural building collapse due to upper level failure and subsequent gravitational impact.

I have a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering and a master's degree in applied statistics, and have been working in research for nearly 30 years.
Having a strong background in chemistry and physics, I understand concepts like the melting temperature of steel and Newton's laws of gravitation. Molten steel was seen flowing from the Towers before they collapsed, and were observed at Ground Zero for weeks after 9/11. The molten steel was not formed as a result of an aircraft impact.

"Looking at NIST's statements about World Trade Center building number 7 and putting it into logical form I have concluded that building seven was taken down by controlled demolition.In addition with my education, observing freefall is an impossibility unless the buildings were taking down by explosives.""NIST's lead technical investigator, Shyam Sunder, stated in the WTC 7 technical briefing that free fall could only happen when an object 'has no structural components below it.'[ii] The only way for a building to have no structural components below it is to remove the lower structural components with an external force such as explosives. If the upper part of a building is crushing its lower structural components, in other words, doing the work of removing them, not all of its energy will be converted into motion and its descent will not be free fall.""Let f = free falls = structuree = explosive demolition! = not> = then!f > s > !ee > !s > fif s > !f= !(s > !f)= !s > ff = trueTherefore:!( !f > s > !e )f > !s > e"

Born in poverty in rural Georgia, I finished High School and college with a BS in math and a minor in industrial education, I have taught school, run several businesses successfully, been a stockbroker, a futures broker and trader and am currently in the log home business. We manufacture and sell log home building materials, selling materials all across the US. My company has survived the housing explosion and though I am retirement age I want to work as long as I can. I have been successful using the tools of hard work and the truth. The truth is what calls me to join AE for 911 truth. Lies have been the order of the day in our once great country for way too long. It is time to spread the truth far and wide no matter who does not like it. My hero said the following: 'There is not a truth existing which I fear, or would wish unknown to the whole world.'' Thomas Jefferson I stand with him and AE for 911 truth.
Even a novice can read enough to understand that only three concrete and steel buildings have ever collapsed in history and all three of them on one day. A very low level of understanding might have one thinking that the two towers that fell might be explainable without resorting to conspiracy but building seven having not been hit or otherwise severely damaged is a smoking gun. Thank God for your organization because there is NO higher calling than seeking the truth. Godspeed, and take my support with you, how I wish it could be much more. Ed Croker

Still can't 'get over it' like so many people tell me to do. Hard to believe this level of destruction and death has yet to hold anyone accountable. The level of cover up is immense and I'm tired of people calling any truth seeker a 'conspiracy theorist' when the conspirators are still at large. There is no way a few men armed with box cutters could pull this off. No conceivable way!

I have lost friends over this,and my co workers think I'm crazy,oh well,no turning back after you are awake,i woke up 4 years ago on 9/11 even though there were many red flags,with the little voice screaming 'something is wrong here',how did Building 7 go down,why are we going into Iraq? It goes on an on.
I watched all buildings go down, didnt turn off news for 2 weeks watching the coverage, in tears the whole time, I don't believe the 4 planes were ever flown into anything but a hanger outside Boston where everyone,mostly except the handlers were gassed, I think military, missiles or remote controlled weapons were flown into the 3 buildings and the fourth was intended for Building 7,

One does not need to be a structural engineer or physicist to know that steel frame buildings don't collapse straight down into their own footprint due to fire. Once you look at the evidence and listen to the experts you can't believe NIST.

The original report causes more questions than answers. There is no way those planes would have not fallen apart before even getting to the towers. The wings would have sheared off even if they made it that far. Which they couldn't. Also there is no way, without help, they could have fallen at freefall. All we want is the truth. We deserve the truth. All the people who lost someone that day deserves the truth. America can never move forward until the past is revealed.

If something can't happen as alleged, then it didn't. Finding thermite explosives in the dust, explosions pre-collapse, and the entire preposterous conspiracy theory of Arabs with box cutters reveals it's utter fraudulence. Not to mention the equally ridiculous claims about the Pentagon. The entire saga from top to bottom just doesn't hold up to rational scrutiny.

9/11 represents a turning point in American foreign policy. The loss of thousands of innocent American lives both on and since 9/11 demands honesty and clarity in the events on that day. A responsible government would not hesitate in uncovering the truth. The only way to achieve justice and closure is for a transparent, formal investigation with subpoena powers by a prosecutor with no conflicts of interest. Remember... steel buildings do not collapse at free fall without explosives.

The A&E for 9-11 Truth, along with trusted friends, were instrumental in my awareness of the full scope of the false flag operation known as 9/11. Your efforts, along with others, paint a clear picture in my mind of what really happened. The whole operation was clearly an inside job, and in the end we have lost more freedoms in this country and stand to lose more if we fail to get the message out to more people and persist in our efforts to do the same and get more folks energized and angry about it all.
