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 events on 9/11 seemed very suspicious at the time. On further review, Building 7 is the smoking gun of 9/11. The building was obviously brought down by explosives. It takes planning and skill to bring a building down. There is no way the explosives were planted the day of the collapse. The fact that Buildings 1 & 2 leases were sold to Larry Silverstein, a developer, by the NYC Port Authority months before is also suspect. There is widespread knowledge in the real estate community that the twin towers were white elephants and both buildings needed significant asbestos mediation to the tune of 200 million. Silverstein made a 4.5 billion dollars profit from insurance claims.

I am a person who is always learning about the world around me. I was affected by 9/11 just as everyone in this country was. I know in my heart something about that day was wrong. With my eyes I could see something wasn't right. And to this day I still have that feeling.
I'm not sure how so many people still refuse to believe what their eyes clearly told them. The way the Towers fell was not a natural collapse from heat. It is clear explosives were involved but this is not in the official 9/11 report. This breaks my heart and honestly infuriates me.

As a civilian I was a IT Technician and responsible for the Security thereof. In the Swiss Army I was in a special fighting unit with the function to instruct on explosives and their use. I was also some year's in Construction active and my Experience is that Engineers are very solid and exact working people and in my opinion they build this three towers well aware that such an incident could happen.
I watched the whole thing on TV on various stations and I told my wife (without listening to the comments on the TV stations) that all three buildings were brought down by controlled demolition. Especially when I heard later on the interview of Larry Silverstein that they decided to pull it I was sure I was right. And since he was the owner of all those buildings (and they had problems with asbestos at least on the Twin Towers) and I know how expensive it is to renovate a building it was may also a good chance to destroy them. I say always 'Follow the money' and since our Swiss Re had to pay for this disaster with a lot of money. Qui Bono. We had also asbestos problems here with our Airport Zurich and we taxpayers had to pay for this renovation. I know what I am talking about. The NIST Propaganda Piece outcome I never accepted as the real cause of all three buildings. When I have the alternative to trust a Politician or a Engineer I prefer the Engineer.

I am a 38 year old carpenter with a degree in wooden boat building. I technically do not have a degree in engineering however I have a very solid understanding' of how structures react when encountering forces which exceed their load capacities.
Upon seeing footage for the first time, the collapse of the first WTC building was completely unexpected and the way that it fell, through the path of greatest resistance was unbelievable yet I watched it happen. When the second building collapsed, and did so the exact same way, it seemed completely improbable. After watching different footage of the same event hundreds of times it is clear that there were small explosions below the portion crumbling above. These presumably were to sever the vertical supports. Also visible prior to total collapse were several locations where it appears a molten substance is pouring out of the building. As for Building 7, It clearly looks exactly like a typical controlled demolition.

No physical evidence given, shown or seen by NIST, live television that day or after, match the physical behavior and the physical laws (Isaac Newton's Principia) regarding steel, and a steel framed high rise building. Nearly everything seen in the collapse of WTC 1, 2 and 7 directs towards controlled demolition.-Use of major force explains the vertical movement of massive steel-frames, office furnitures, and bone fragments of the complete buildings (several 100 feet)-Use of major force also explains the size of the pieces on the ground and the distance of the rubble and pieces on Ground Zero. -Use of major heat (fuse) explains the sudden onset of the collapse.-Use of major heat (fuse) explains the molten steel, the fires, and the temperatures at ground zero up until 3 months later. All of the above explain the pyroclastic cloud all over the area, and the blast wave seen in multiple videos that day.

"Anyone who has a simple understanding of high school level physics will realize that the only way that a skyscraper can fall at the free fall speeds measured during the collapse of the 3 buildings on 9/11/2001 in NYC had to have had their lower support structures removed. The most common way for this to happen is by explosive type devices, such as nano thermite charges, placed on the support columns. Evidence from numerous eye witness testimonies as well as measuring the chemical and physical residues of the dust from the location of the collapse confirm this explanation. As well there are voluminous reports and documents of additional information to support the obvious explosive collapse such as seismic data and forensic engineering analysis. It is of paramount importance for the United States and the world that an unbiased scientific investigation be instituted by an independent committee having no conflicts of interest. I support 100% such a long overdue investigation. The ""official"" 9/11 Commission investigation was controlled from the White House and was extremely limited and incomplete at best."

I know the official version is a lie, a deception. The laws of physics do not lie, even an amateur should know this. It was obviously controlled demolition. I'm angry with the ensuing wars in the Middle East, based on lies, and so called war on terror and the lying governments which lie continually. I am wide awake. I want those responsible for 9/11 to be brought to justice

I have worked for a number of years in the construction industry. I worked with the cutting, sawing and drilling of steel beams and floor sections to open for conduits, piping and cable work to go through. I've seen how strong the buildings are as they go up. I've worked on multi-level office buildings and other building types too. While at school I did study Physics and Chemistry.
"I've watched pretty much everything Richard Gage and the other members have talked about and one thing no one has mentioned much, if at all, is the fact that Larry Silverstein and the Solomon Brothers spent 200 million having Building 7 re-enforced way, way past its redundancy. He is quoted as saying, ""The building is so strong now you could remove whole floor sections of the building and it still wouldn't effect the structural integrity of the building"". There is a copy of the interview in the New York Post. Also, it's never mentioned that in 1973 the North tower suffered a fire that burned on a few low floors for a few hours before being put out. The result was that a few floors had fire damage and a few floors had water damage from the fire hoses. My question is that if an oxygen starved fire burning for just over an hour could bring the tower down with so little weight above it, then why did the fire in 73', which burnt longer over a few floors at the base with all that weight above it, not bring the tower down? There is no way that WTC7 could come down the way we are told after all the re-enforcing work it had done to it. As for the twin towers it's just a simple matter of physics."

At first I didn't believe her, so we grabbed the internet, looked at CNN and were amazed. She then asked me 'Do you think the Palestinians are behind this?' It took me all of 15 seconds of brainwaves to answer: 'No, they don't have the organization for a thing like that.' 9-11 screamed 'inside job' from the beginning.

9/11 is a blatant conspiracy, that appears to have been executed by, or with complicity from, government, military, administrative and media individuals and corporations. The world deserves the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, which is the minimum requirement to pay respect to those who died, were injured or suffered due to deaths or injuries. It's time to wake up and recognize that if 9/11 truth can be fully investigated and exposed around the world, with those responsible receiving due process and punishment, then perhaps future 'events' can be prevented. If 'they' get away with 9/11, who knows what 'they' will be, or are being emboldened to do. If you know, blow the whistle. The truth will set you free. It's the least you can do.

When all the standard protocols are not followed before & after 9/11 (military, aviation, fire, police, political etc.), the deep state does not want the truth to be revealed. The truth would shake this nation to its foundation, but without the truth we are doomed as a nation; Time will tell.
