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.

According to the official story, the twin towers fell by FEMA's pancake theory driven by deterioration of the steel columns from the jet fuel initiated fires. This is inconsistent with the video and data: - no other documented cases of steel inforced building collapse from fire (see LA 1988, UK 1990, Philidelpiha 1991 fires which did not induce collapse) - the video shows that the buildings collapse in free fall, not a slower, fast/slow collapse which would be expected based on the pancake theory - it is not likely that an oxygen deficient, jet fuel initated fire could provide conditions to melt or oxidize steel

As an accomplished Architectural technician / 3D Artist I am capable of producing detailed plans of a vast array of different types of large and small buildings, I also produce photorealistic imagery and physics animation of a high standard.
Simply amazed at how there has been no real investigation into what happened on 9/11 2001. As a constructor / designer of buildings via CAD + 3D Software, A well astute understanding of how buildings are put together and how extremely strong and tough they are, to be demolished... It just doesn't happen without planned intervention. Simple as that! No matter what way it gets dressed up, the pancake affect did not take the buildings down. The facts and evidence is there, provided by vasts amounts of people, established people expressing their doubts about how many things happened on that day. I'm 100% positive that the two towers could not have collapsed the way the 9/11 Commission report has explained, without even getting into building 7.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Military Institute in 1968. I have an EIT in Virginia, Alabama, and Georgia. I worked for GE as an electrical engineer before being drafted and serving in the Vietnam war. I designed control systems for HVAC systems for large commercial and industrial buildings.
After intensely studying all available evidence and facts for over a decade, it's clear to me that the official explanation about what happened on 9/11 is absurd. The three buildings that collapsed in lower Manhattan were clearly controlled demolitions. There are still many unanswered questions about 9/11. I wonder why the U.S. Government has no interest in finding (or disclosing) the truth.

My degree is in Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering from NDSU with focus on power and machinery. I spent 11 years designing hopper bottom bins, support towers for grain elevator legs and catwalks/conveyors, bulkweigh/loadout systems, silo hoppers, and custom storage tanks. The last 5 years I have been designing foundations and structural steel supports and platforms for the oil and gas industry.
I was in college taking tests when the event occurred. My most salient memory is getting a parking ticket at my apartment due to 'street cleaning' (in september ... really?). I guess I was too distracted to take notice that day. It wasn't until mid 2018 that I became aware of building 7 collapse. The media has spun its spell very well, as NO ONE I have talked to about building 7 was aware it even collapsed or the reporting from Donald Rumsfeld report the day prior! I always suspected that a typical fire should not have been able to bring the towers down when a high speed plane impact only made a hole, but accepted the narrative that BOTH towers had similar floor connection failures which precipitated a cascading collapse. I no longer accept that theory after finding out that the investigation was mandated to only the events leading up to the collapse. After learning of building 7 and the reporting surrounding it, it is clear we need a thorough unbiased investigation into this even to give the country closure and hold any guilty parties accountable. We need to restore law and order!

I completed a three year bachelor of science degree (BSc) in electrical and electronic engineering from the University of Plymouth, UK. I am now part way through an MSc in engineering management from Brunel University, UK. I also have over 15 years of experience in the engineering industry. I am a registered professional engineer (Incorporated Engineer) and a full member with the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), UK.
I just cannot quite believe that some people still think the planes/fires caused the collapse. It has been proven that this could not happen and that there is a whole host of evidence that was 'overlooked'. The fact NIST or the commission still refuse to appear in public and defend their theory against peers, further reinforces the corruption. WTC7 is the real smoking gun though. What destroys any credibility of the official theory is the live BBC news report that reported WTC7 as having collapsed when it was still clearly visible from the window behind them. This is damning evidence that all of the media had prior knowledge about what was going to happen. There is no way anyone could have known WTC7 was about to collapse from the small pockets of fires that were blazing. Owing to the weeks of planning that had to go into bringing that building down, this in itself is irrefutable evidence that the building had been planned to come down that day by a team of experts.

High-speed, high-momentum horizontal ejections are not consistent with vertical gravitational collapses. Pulverized concrete and shredded steel are not consistent with gravitational collapses. And so on. We should begin our personal examination of 9/11 by renewing our confidence in our own common sense and experience with reality, and then we should calmly and bravely look at, and acquiesce to, overwhelming scientific evidence. That sort of sound and flexible-mindedness is one of the many things that make our civilization noble.

I am 23 years old, I am a musician. I have been researching 9/11 for a number of years now, and have been active in the 9/11 truth movement for some time. It has essentially consumed my life, and I do my best to use my platform as a musician to spread the awareness to as many people as I possibly can.
First of all I want to say thank you so much to AE911 Truth, you guys have really given this movement the proper credibility it needs to move forward. You are all heroes, and I admire you deeply. As far as the collapses themselves go, I think it is fairly obvious just by simple observation with an open mind that these buildings could not have come down the way we were lead to believe. The uniform nature of the twin towers collapse, and the rapid speed at which they came down is enough to spark you interest. The basic laws of physics and conservation of energy prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that something else has to be involved. Building 7....it took me 6.5 seconds to realize that this collapse was not a result of a fire. Even if 25% of the building was caved in (which has been proven to be false) the straight down free fall acceleration collapse we all witnessed is still not possible without the use of explosives. This coupled with the fact that great men like Steven Jones and Niels Harrit have found nano-thermite in the dust makes the need for a new investigation the most essential issue facing humanity today. Thank you for all you do, never give up for there is no stopping an idea whose time has come.

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!

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,

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.

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.

At this point, I do not believe this is relevant as I am a member of the general public. Just an interested, sympathetic, sincere human being wishing to see justice done.
My heart and soul goes out to every single victim, every individual still suffering and the families who have lost and continue to lose loved ones every day since. This entire event, the deplorable crimes committed make my soul sick to its core. I am an absolute firm believer in the conspiracy and without any shadow of a doubt, wish to see everyone responsilble punished as they should be. This should be and needs to be investigated independently and justice given to those lost and suffering. Thoroughly disgusted and eager to contribute to the cause.
