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.

The second tower was not a direct hit to the infrastructure of the building. Most of the kerosene went out the side and back of the building. I could not believe that this event would have caused this building to be the first to fall when the core of the structure was not hit. Watching the towers fall reminded me of a typical pulled building that you would see during a standard demolition. Watching the top of the tower move after it was going to tip over back into fall position required another force much stronger to upright the tower to provide it to fall through the center. This is typical of demolition charges bringing the center back into alignment.

I think we need to look at 9/11 again. There are some very good youtube videos that make people curious. My big question for many years was: Why do we (the west) need to kill way more people in the 'name' of fighting terrorists, than the terrorists ever killed. It seems very odd and immediately makes you think if this whole thing is about something else, other than terrorists.

After many years of working within various industries (facilities management, social housing, voluntary and private sector) I retrained in 2012 and now work within the field of education as a teaching assistant working in a state run primary school.
I became interested in the truth movement after witnessing the shocking events of September 11th on TV. I remember thinking 'how strange' when the BBC reported about the collapse of WTC 7. So many questions remain unanswered and certain answers that have been given are unsatisfactory and unconvincing. There are too many holes in the official story. I joined a 9/11 Truth discussion group in 2006 but left as there was some elements within the group who saw everything as a conspiracy. I resolved to only look at information and evidence that could be scientifically examined. People can speculate all they want about who the perpetrators are or the reason why this atrocity happened. But they cannot argue with scientific facts about the collapse of WTC 7.

I'm puzzled as to why only the buildings with the WTC prefix were destroyed. It would appear to be exact and deliberate where as surrounding buildings were virtually unscathed. Other puzzling points are the little amount of debris produced by the collapse of the two towers and why the paper survived the destruction and wasn't burnt when seen near burning cars etc. Why were hundreds of motor vehicles partially or totally destroyed when they were blocks away from the towers? Why were flags and trees not burned when the dust cloud rolled through the streets? There are so many unanswered questions and it's plainly obvious the perpetrators don't want the truth revealed to the citizens of the world.

I am an American. We need to know the truth, follow where the facts lead us. Determine the why' how and who and hold them accountable. People need to stand up for their right to make informed decisions based on the facts and the truth. NOT follow what we are told for the sake of those we place in positions of governance or that are placed in government/oversight, authoritative positions without being held accountable. Plain and simple, we need to defend our rights, ad way of life for others are working long and hard to take it all away and replace it with WHAT is best for THEM.

Any skyscraper or building under any condition can't be literally pulverized as a consequence of sheer gravitational force. Even less it can do it at free fall speed. The weakening point of steel is so high that it doesn't make sense that a simple airplane fire, as well as some office fire, could have been enough for such a vast structure to reach it. A structural failure can't happen at the same moment on 80 different columns such to explain the perfectly straight collapsing of the 3 Towers.

I am a college graduate and a concerned US citizen. The lies which we have been told concerning not only 9/11 but also many others should be investigated.
The official story concerning the destruction and death surrounding 9/11 is obviously a lie. Americans should know the truth of what happened. Those who are responsible should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Our constitutional rights should be restored in full.

The Twin Towers have shown, no doubt, to have been built in an excellent manner, because the impact of the planes showed no structural failure, let alone swing worrying. They were built really well to bear even a violent penetration of the planes in that span. Too bad that the United States is governed and run by the mafia and terrorist organizations, whose sole purpose is to protect some family businesses money and weapons, otherwise it could also be a nice country to visit.Le Torri Gemelle hanno dimostrato, senza nessun dubbio, di essere state costruite in maniera eccellente, perche all'impatto degli aerei non hanno mostrato nessun cedimento strutturale e tantomeno un'oscillazione preoccupante. Sono state costruite veramente bene da sopportare anche una violenta penetrazione degli aerei di quella portata. Peccato che gli Stati Uniti siano governati e gestiti da organizzazioni mafiose e terroristiche, il cui unico scopo ' di proteggere alcune famiglie produttrici di denaro ed armi, altrimenti potrebbe anche essere un paese piacevole da visitare.

Did not finish colledge. To me, in a system like we have here, as the stubborn highly moral person.. the degree, in a system like this, is an insult to my intelligence. Perhaps stubborn to a fault? Hmmm. Not sure about that one. Oh well. I give up. I will not participate in system full of lies and horror for big cash for big gangster criminals like we have running the show here.
It is painfully obvious that the owners of our mass media are completely lying. These people will be held accountable. It is also obvious that our so called leaders during this time are indeed responsible for this horrendous crime against humanity as traitors and have committed treason. There is no doubt in my mind, or their central bankers' mass media would not be hiding everything about it and lying also and they are now fooling no one. I am waiting for the impending arrests. Looking forward to having these ones held accountable in international court.

I wholeheartedly believe that 9/11 was an inside job. I have believed this for many, many years now. I have done my own investigations ie. reading newspapers, researching the web about 9/11, talking to others about it, watching the media coverage of it (over and over again) in the last 13 years. The facts? given to us via the 9/11 Commission Report, and through NIST do not add up!!!!

It's become very obvious that America needs an independent investigation into the 9-11 events. Not calling for this makes the government even more complicit in the crime itself. Not asking for more investigation creates the appearance of trying to cover up information and squelch the search for truth. Why not investigate this event as much as can be?

The 'official' account is an insult to anyone with an IQ over 20. It defies physics. The demolition with the use of explosives and thermite is so overwhelmingly obvious it makes me sick to see the US government purport this to the citizens of the world but moreover that it is still believed by most.

At one time I worked in residential construction, and for a short time in commercial construction. Although I have never been formally trained in the field of high rise steel frame building construction, I do have an understanding of the basic principals.
On Tuesday September 11, 2001 -- I watched the destruction of the World Trade Center on TV. As things were unfolding, I wondered about how many people had died, and I also wondered how they would repair the damage. Never in my wildest imagination did I believe those buildings would collapse. When I watched WTC 1 & 2 collapse, I knew there was something very wrong with that. When I saw WTC 7 collapse, I knew without a doubt that the buildings were demolished. Since that time I have spent countless hours doing research, such as listening to expert statements and watching home videos by eyewitnesses. I am extremely disturbed that my government could murder so many people and cause so much property damage without blinking an eye. A REAL investigation is needed, and those accountable for the events of 9/11 need to be tried in a court of law for what they did. If we can not do that, our freedoms and our democracy will keep being eroded away, and we face a very grim future as a nation.

Too many issues were dealt with insufficiently, or not dealt with at all in the official report. The evidence was destroyed very quickly. I believe I saw a statistic that far more was spent to impeach President Clinton, an event in which no one died, than to investigate 9/11. Two wars have been started using 9/11 as a pretext, and without a thorough understanding of what happened and why, which still may be possible to ferret out, the initiation of these destructive processes was premature and possibly criminal. An honest, thorough investigation of 9/11 should have been conducted, was not, and those who were derelict in their duty need to be held to account.
