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 became suspicious about 9-11 about 4 years ago after hearing Michael Savage make an idiotic sounding explanation for Able Danger I began my own research and quickly ran across WTC-7 video. As a commercial pilot, I had always wondered how inexperienced hijackers could make such nice approaches into those buildings at 400 knots in such large aircraft. But I just blew it off.

I am qualified with a Masters degree in the first class in the subject of civil engineering from the University of Nottingham, UK. Since graduating in 2004 I spent six years as a civil engineer in Manchester, working mainly in the area of structural design and including over 2 years of construction site experience. Since July 2011, I have been working on a large construction project in Malta as a site engineer, structural designer and project manager.
Having researched every aspect of the collapses using sources such as the videos presented on the A&E website, it is my dedicated opinion that controlled demolition was responsible. Drawing on my structural engineering experience, my knowledge of physics, the evidence presented in numerous credible websites and books, and above all basic common sense, I consider gravitational collapse to be a wholly inaccurate description for the collapse mechanism as it is not in keeping with any of the physical evidence. Such evidence is easily accessible online for anyone who is willing to do their own research, though willingness appears to come second to willful ignorance in many cases, then worst of all there is apathy. Out of the many unexplained anomalies uncovered in the official story of 9/11, the building collapses (particularly WTC7) are the aspects most communicable to the public in raising awareness of these anomalies along with the puzzling fact that we do not yet have any proof of who orchestrated the attacks.

I had testimonial and physical evidence placing Mr. Atta and five other persons in Zurich in July of 2000. Without being able to say more than a couple of sentences, I was told There is no evidence that anyone involved in the events of September the Eleventh has ever stepped foot in Switzerland. There will be no further investigation. I have doubted the official story since this time. The work of AE911truth.org and others is uncovering considerable evidence and casting considerable doubts on the official stories. I would like to see another investigation on the collapses of all three WTC buildings that fell on September 11, 2001.

How could the steel melt and - in the meantime - people were still surviving in the Towers? If the temperature reached the steel melting point everybody should have been dead in the Towers. People escaping through the stairs proves that temperatures in the skyscrapers was very low at any level of the building.

Worked for years in the construction of steel/concrete buildings from the ground up.
When I became aware of Building Seven having minor damage and falling at free fall speed, I realized it had to be a controlled demolition job. This led me to further examine all the 9/11 events and I came to the conclusion the 9/11 report is absolute fabrication of what happened that day. The bottom line is that all the events of 9/11 need to be reexamined and that justice prevail. I could also go on an on about the suspicious privatization of the Towers only weeks before the event and how those involved all share a common thread. I will stop now and wish you well on the quest for the truth. God Bless, Gary Walega, Port St Lucie, FL.

Well I grew up questioning everything.
Total hoax. Inside job. Perhaps Bush brother Neil was in charge of security for the Towers? That's the easy access to set up the explosives.I grew up questioning everything. If it doesn't feel something's like JFK, RFK, MLK all assassinated, why? I feel that way regarding 9/11. Why? In the initial interviews by the press to the firefighters, and they can hear explosions, I cn hear explosions, where's the intercept planes, oh, they're practicing exercises over there, ordered by Cheney to stand down. And, all evidence hauled away never to be seen again. As I see the two Towers falling straight down perfectly and you can see puffs of smoke puffing out as the building is starting to collapse. All a sham to scare the world and excuse to go to create two illegal wars. Glad you guys are here. Thank you for pursuing the truth.

After doing my own research and educating myself through educated and professional people on the design and engineering of the WTC1 WTC2 and WTC7, steel frame construction and buildings do not dissolve in the manner that they did on 9/11, unless they were purposely set up for a controlled demolition.

It was obvious from the start that the WTC collapse was suspect. However, I did not give it due consideration as I naively presumed it would be properly investigated. I gave it no more thought until I stumbled upon the AE911TRUTH documentary 'Explosive Evidence' online recently. I no longer have faith in my government or its agencies.

I can no longer look away from the most basic and even obvious facts about the collapse of the 3 towers. My denial based on my fear of the truth has become more painful than facing the truth. We deserve the truth from our government. Our government was founded on honesty and freedom. Government by the people FOR the people. It is truly horrific how the government is treating the people with its dishonesty and repression of truth. I believe the truth and nothing but the truth will set America free again.

The destruction of the Twin Towers and WTC7 seems to be taken down in a controlled demolition. The cover up confirms the hypothesis.

During the first week of 9/11 it occurred to me that this was an inside job. When I first saw the footage on TV (day one) I thought it was computer imagery and was a film. Couldn't believe it when I saw it was an actual event. It was later in the week that it occurred to me that my initial thoughts bore some truth. It WAS a spectacle designed to be viewed and would be something that would have the whole world gasping. Since that time I have been trying to find out what the actual truth is. Thank you Architects & Engineers for standing up and giving ground that all the concerned citizens of the USA and the World can begin the process of revealing the truth of 9/11.

9/11 needs to be reevaluated so the people have a fair shot at knowing the truth instead of falling victim to government's poor lies. Even if the same outcome is what the government has led us to believe, we should still exercise our right as the general public to question our government and think for ourselves; not be so easily misled by media and patriotism.

I've seen the evidence and listened to the commentary provided by the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth organization. I agree with the organization's assertion that there is reason to doubt the official government explanation about the collapse of the Twin Towers and Building 7. The scientific evidence for controlled demolition is overwhelming and a new independent investigation is indeed necessary. The families of the 9/11 victims deserve to know the truth.

I have about 1.5 years of college education in chemistry and math. After leaving college I became a small residential general contractor from 1994 to 2011 specializing in custom homes. I am familiar with floor and roof loads as well as safety ratios built into building codes.
I see there to be no way possible for all three buildings to come down with the SPEED that they did with all the restriction of the underlying floors. Also, certain floors are required to support all the floors above them including floor load etc. regardless of jolt. If the official government story holds true, then why were not the architects and engineers held liable or sued for negligent or faulty design? As the contractor, I would have had an obligation to go after the engineer who stamped the design.

For me, I am sure that the claims made by NIST are beyond ridiculous. I know what exactly free fall means in this context. I have a deep understanding of the whole event. It is far too much to discuss here but from any angle either political, economic or scientific, it just does not make any sense. Forget about the US military capabilities and intelligence and the incompetence of the alleged pilots too. I stand with truth, so I want an independent investigation.

Just after leaving a class I had taught at a community college, I heard the news on my car radio of the collapse of the Towers. There was a suspiciously pat story, full of details about Bin Laden, guilty without judge or jury. I was reminded of my first hearing on the radio of President Kennedy's murder. At that time I also realized that what we were hearing was just a story, not the truth. I teach English and we do talk about critical thinking.
When I arrived home, I saw a plane fly into a tower and I felt strongly this was made for TV, that this image was meant to shock and scare us. Instead, I knew something was going on. I as reminded of the Kennedy assassination. Later I got on Internet and listened to idea that a Building 7 also came down with nothing hitting it after a Mr Silverstein had said to 'Pull it' On and on, I paid attention and nothing could ever convince me that what the authorities said was true. I listened to Steven Jones, Judy Woods. William Rodrigues came to Austin and I went to hear him. He was late to work and heard what appeared to be bombs going off on lower floor. The fact that evidence was destroyed, debris quickly cleaned up and sent off to China show that the government didn't want to investigate. This is truly a terrible crime committed by US gov and definitely the Bush administration.
