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.

Steel framed buildings do not collapse from fire. As video evidence, eye witness accounts, and laboratory evidence proved, towers 1, 2, and 7 were brought down by a premeditated, controlled demolition using explosives containing nanothermite. A segment of our government has lied to the citizens of the world. A complete, transparent investigation must be completed. Those guilty of murdering thousands of innocent people must be brought to justice.

While I received a BS in ChemE some time ago, I have spent little time pursuing that elusive career. I have instead pursued other interests. This would not make me an expert but I do believe that my studies in the field do qualify me to claiming a science based opinion as to what smells and what doesn't.
With the passage of time, the preponderance of evidence related to the WTC collapse events indicates to me that there are many ignored questions which need to be addressed. IMO failure to address these questions through a proper investigation will only serve to fuel rumor and sensationalism and this is matter I think we would all prefer to see finally resolved and relegated to history.

I'm an ex United Airlines flight attendant; and I worked out of Boston's Logan Intl Airport the morning of 9/11/01 on a flight that departed one hour prior to Flt 175.
Upon seeing the disappearance of the Towers, my first thought that morning upon emergency landing in Iowa and reviewing the television footage of Ground Zero was Shouldn't that pile be bigger? There did not seem to be enough matter where the Towers stood. What was also curious: Nobody checked the passengers on our flight, nor the crew. Everyone scattered away. Bizarre lack of security. Why wasn't anyone accounted for? Why wasn't the plane detained? We were also a full tank of gas making a transcontinental flight from Boston. Very strange, unless the perpetrators knew how everything was to proceed, for that would explain why they had no extraneous use for our plane, nor even to double-check any potential threat on our plane: Because they KNEW there wasn't one!

I firmly believe that just fire coming from jet fuel couldn't have caused the necessary amount of heat to melt the steel columns and that some kind of chemical (thermite) was used to reach those temperatures.

I graduated as an interpreter and later as a townplanner. I am scientifically minded, although I do not hold an engineering or scientific degree. But many an engineer or scientist have gulped the official 9/11 story as it came, never grasping that none of the 3 towers should have fallen as they did, once you restore common sense and push aside the news reports.
Of course any scientifically based research into why and how these 3 towers collapsed should automatically get the thumbs up from anyone who cares.

The evidence of a controlled demolition of WTC 7 is so obvious that it does not take an architect or structural engineer to see it. It is also obvious that the NIST report on the collapse of WTC 7 does not correlate with the events that occurred that day. Furthermore the lack of critical investigation complicates the matter as it appears to be an obvious coverup. If NIST's account is to be believed, it would stand to reason that we would have to vacate and demolish every existing steel frame building due to the inherent danger posed by this type of construction. It is shocking that to this day most people are not even aware of the collapse of WTC 7.

I believe it was a controlled demolition by the US government to invoke a fear mentality into the general public for the oil interests and one world order interests of the highest government officials. The evidence doesn't add up with what the American public has been told.

How does airline fuel melt high-tensile steel columns? I understand this type of fuel reaches 1500 degrees. To melt steel it would need to reach a temperature of 2800 degrees centigrade. Was thermite used to collapse these buildings?

I am the CEO of a mid size (100 person) software company in Australia. I am not an engineer, but I am an extremely logical, sensible, and conservative person. I have used all my cognitive skills to analyze the evidence and I believe all 3 towers were brought down in the manner of a controlled demolition.
I don't know why it was done or who is responsible, however after viewing enough video's I believe it is extremely unlikely that any of the 3 towers that collapsed, came down as a result of the airplane impacts. In particular WTC 7 was clearly a controlled demolition, which instantly causes extreme doubt in my mind about the official story.

I think most Americans at this point feel that our government has not only lied about its role in 9/11, but has also exploited the tragedy to limit our constitutional rights and privacy. They used this tragedy to engage us in wars that were justified with false pretense. And since this tragedy, the government's integrity and purpose has diminished. I believe that what was and is labeled conspiracy theories are actually truth and the truth they force us to hear, nothing more than lies. 9/11 reveals a sad reality; if you are rich and powerful, you can break every law and make billions more in doing so. The guilty party here has no respect for their neighbors, they are traitors to this country, and they are responsible for the countless amount of Americans that have been emotionally abused and disrespected by this tragedy, like myself. The studies, experiments and reports that have been completed by intelligent architects and engineers, speak comprehensive reality and I trust the intelligence of these Americans that have spent their whole lives learning, understanding and contributing to the progress of their occupation. I value their careful thoughts and opinions more that i will ever consider from dishonest government intelligence and careless leaders. 9/11 is certainly, a rich man's trick.

After having read the 40 pages study issued by AE911truth, it became clear that the break-down of the WTC buildings 1, 2 + 7 could not have been caused by the crash of air planes. We owe it to the victims and their relatives to stand up and to urge for a new and independent investigation.

Bombs dressed like planes went into towers 1 and 2. Demolition charges were placed at the base and throughout the buildings. Nano thermite/thermate was ignited to melt and cut the steel beams. Squibs from detonations occurred allowing the buildings to free fall in a controlled demolition.

Over the years have become aware of how the official narrative and the report by NIST does not describe what can be found on YouTube, news broadcasts on that day, analysis of what happened etc., particularly when NIST stated there were no explosions, which can be heard in many videos, and reported by many eye witnesses! For me it all started observing the footage of WTC 7 coming down by what is obviously controlled demolition.

I have spent the last two years looking at the available information surrounding the events of 9/11. It is alarming to me that prior to WTC7 on 9/11, no high-rise building had ever collapsed due to fire. The architects and engineers who have an enormous stake in fire safety deserve to have the NIST computer model released and also to present their own evidence for controlled demolition.

I was always one of those that was always skeptical of our government being behind this. Though things didn't add up, I didn't think our own country could be behind so many deaths of our own citizens. After watching the hour long segment, I am now 100% confident that it definitely wasn't just a few terrorists. It's very sad and heartbreaking to realize that our own people were very well behind this. I want the truth to come out just as all of you do.

I don't have much to say here as far as relevant education to this matter.
Although I'm no architect or engineer, nor do I have any degrees in any field of expertise pertaining to this, I am an expert on 9/11 and have thousands of hours of research into all aspects of it. I initially started my research in an appalled effort to prove a friend wrong, who told me 9/11 was an 'inside job.' I was hell bent to prove him wrong. It actually didn't take a long time in independent research to begin to see how wrong I was. The 'official narrative' is a farce and we demand a new and independent investigation!

This was a controlled demolition of all buildings. It has also been shown that white phosphorus was used. This had nothing to do with terrorists. The planes were definitely military with an explosive device the went off prior to impact.

I am really embarrassed to admit that, even though I knew at a gut level that something was wrong, it was several years before I really started looking at the evidence. The official story is bunk. If our nation is ever going to recover from all the corruption that's been uncovered over the past few years, we need a complete housecleaning. Everything, including the truth about this atrocity, must come out, and be dealt with appropriately.

I have spent many hours reviewing and researching the events that took place, expert testimony and physical evidence from this tragedy. But even without all the facts, common sense and logic has brought me to the conclusion that there has been an extreme injustice done to the American people and a gross abuse of power. It must be properly investigated and the ones responsible held accountable for their treason against the United States and its people.

I am an engineer in the electronic technology field. I have a company that assembles printed circuit boards as well as LCD display integration services. I employ 40 people in that field and have been in business for 30 years.
I served for six years in the US Navy and held a Top Secret security clearance. I was born and raised in the NYC metropolitan area and watched the Twin Towers rise into the sky. It is shocking to learn that our trusted officials appear to have obfuscated the real events of that fateful day in 2001 and the official 9/11 report as well as the NIST report are both inaccurate and misleading. So many people died as a result of this event and it is a travesty that our elected officials have done nothing to get to the bottom of this crime. Even more shocking is how the average person is unaware of the facts of this matter.
