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.

With a focus on structural engineering and design, I received a Bachelor of Science degree (with honors) in Architectural Engineering. I assisted in the design of bridge structural components for a large project for the Texas Department of Transportation. I designed reinforced concrete and steel components for bridges. I carried out laboratory and field research to better understand the mechanisms of premature failure of reinforced concrete structures. I received a Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering, with a focus on construction materials. I have also worked as a project manager for a foundation construction company.
I have spent hours listening to eyewitness accounts and analyses by engineers and scientists on the topic of the causes of collapse of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. I can only come to the conclusion that the commission for the official 9/11 report was grossly negligent in its investigation. Not only were critical details omitted from the reports, but blatant lies have been and continue to be spread regarding the actual events on September 11, 2001. I am a scientist and engineer in support of a new, correct, scientifically sound, and comprehensive investigation into the causes of collapse of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7, as well as a criminal investigation into all people associated with one of the most horrific crimes in human history.

The video evidence clearly and forthrightly shows explosive ejections far below the zone of visible collapse on all three buildings. This, for me, is sufficient to investigate in excruciating detail, the actual causes of the collapse. Steel does not fail in this manner. The evidence collected thus far is conclusive in my mind that the towers, which were designed to withstand the impact of a jetliner, did not fail from the impact of the airplanes or the subsequent fire.

As an engineering student I was very early fascinated by the amount of focused effort, strictly controlled environment & energy that is required to melt & form steel.An aviation spirit fire does not come any way near with any of the above criteria to cause such a free fall collapse as witnessed at WTC1,2, & 7. The RB211 engines of a Boeing 757 should have left a much larger footprint at the Pentagon then was visible with the released film clips of the resulting explosion & fire etc..

There is no doubt in my mind that 9/11 was a Controlled Demolition and that the Government is involved (if not accomplice) in the biggest cover-up operation of our time!

Electrical/Electronic Engineer, during my degree I have studied physics and the evidence more than overwhelms the lie put out by the government. Could they have destroyed the crime scene by removing all the evidence any faster?
This was a staged demolition with no doubt. The plane's impact and the fire that ensued did not bring these buildings down. Being on national TV, too many people's statements illuded to this. It is a crying shame that most people get caught up in the sensationalism and do not look at the physical evidence. The government, the media and the powers above them prey on the innocent citizens that are not educated enough to know the simple law of physics.

I was 8 years old when 9/11 happened and I didn't know the magnitude of what had happened at the time, but I was always fascinated with how it all happened. When YouTube surfaced, I happened to watch a few videos of the events and for whatever reason I couldn't believe the story with how everything unfolded. Not to mention the WTC7 collapse and the government dodging every tough question. I also listened to the people who were there and they heard things (bombs) that were later disregarded by the media and government.

Everyone agrees that it was an act of terrorism. Where controversy exists, is determining who was behind the terrorism. Resolving this will require a formal, criminal investigation, something which has never been done. The lack of a true understanding of what happened to the WTC on 9/11, has led to devastating consequences to the American people. It has resulted in the death and injury of thousands of American soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of people in the Middle East. A clear understanding of what happened is needed to prevent further harm to innocent people, and to make the true perpetrators face justice.

I'm not an expert in the architecture or engineering fields. I am a concerned US citizen who has studied 9/11 for years. Based on the evidence, I know that the facts from 9/11 never lined up with the narrative that the US government gave to the people and the media. It is time to uncover the truth. - - - - I love God, Truth, and liberty. I think the truth is of utmost importance to bring to the light, even if it is the ugliest of truth. The truth is also integral to upholding unencumbered liberty. A government that operates in lies and secrecy is certain to be a tyrannical government. Just look at the extreme tyranny, which rose up out of the 9/11 false flag. If we are ever going to be truly free, we must have the truth.
Scientifically speaking, it is impossible for a steel skyscraper to freefall onto it's own footprint due to fire damage. This was obviously a controlled demolition. Even Building 7 had very small fires on only a few floors and it was never hit by a plane. Yet, it fell as if it was felled by controlled demolition. We know that there have been numerous skyscrapers throughout history that have similar structure to the WTC towers, which have had raging, all-consuming fires occur. Yet, they did not fall. As a matter of fact, those buildings were often safe enough for fire investigators to enter and walk around in, in order to investigate. None of the events of 9/11 line up with basic principles of science and physics. None of the crime scene investigation protocols were followed either. Nothing adds up.

Bachelors degree in business. No higher education in architecture or science beyond the basic public school education. I've always had personal interests in architecture and science. I believe I have relevant understanding of how laws of physics works and how mega structures are built.
I was 15yrs old when 9/11 happened and ever since that day I have never understood how it was possible for such a small plane made out of inferior metal to cut through the building and also collapse the building to dust. My first effort to understand was comparing it to the story of David vs Goliath, but even that didn't make sense. Then I would think that I've never seen a tree fall from sawing off its tip. Those buildings were modern marvels of architectural structures. The evidence has been completely ignored and improperly handled. The NIST report is embarrassing to everyone involved in producing the final report. The fact the the American people have actually accepted this is appalling.

When the Towers were struck, I was shocked along with everyone else. The Towers collapsing had me completely confused. How could a single airliner bring down each of these giants of steel and concrete? Life went on, even after the NIST lie. It was when I saw the A&E dvd, the absolute proof was right in front of me. Then I went and researched every piece of verifiable info I could find and followed the money. Tower 7, don't get me started!!!

I remember walking into class on 9/11. The TV wasn't on yet, but someone told me a plane crashed in the World Trade Center. My immediate response was 'yeah right,' I didn't believe a word of it, until my home room teacher turned the TV on. I think we all watched TV the rest of the day, but our teachers talked to us and asked us questions, as well. Of course nobody was sure what to make of it all, only that it was horrible and the firemen were extremely brave. That event conditioned us all, and many thousands were murdered. Many more millions would die during proceeding wars and deniable operations. Countless people would be detained without arrest and tortured on rendition planes. For what? For who? It wasn't until early August of this year I read Operation Northwoods that I could believe our government had the duplicity to scheme mass murder against it's own people. I've looked at the evidence and watched the videos again. The official story cannot be true. I know it now, and there's no going back. We the People established this government, We the People deserve a thorough investigation.

This was a complete Controlled demo. There are so many clues picked up in the available footage that appears there was not even an airplane in the pentagon. Building 7 is all I need to see to know there was a demo crew involved.

High school education. I have researched this matter for years. I was in high school when this happened. It's hard to imagine that 2 planes could do that much destruction. I have seen a lot of mythbusters experiments to see that other forces were at play that historical day..
I have done tons of research and things just don't add up. How does tons of concrete turn to dust and steel melt at office fire temps. Had to be other forces at work..

I have come to my own conclusion that, at the very least, a thorough investigation of the events leading up to 9/11 and after should be demanded by the People and for the People! This was an evil and cowardly act of death and destruction and those responsible should be brought to justice. We must never forget those that gave their lives and all the people involved with saving lives. God Bless them all and families and friends.

I have FORTY YEARS of Railroad Signaling. The Railroad industry utilizes Thermite daily in instant welds in both the Signal Department and the Track Department. It is hot enough to melt rail segments and instant weld stick rail. Seeing molten metal at the WTC demise was a red flag for me since I work the railroad industry and see Thermite at work frequently.
Anyone that has taken a PHYSICS COURSE should have realized that as the destruction of one of the WTC towers started, it should have TOPPLED OVER due to its lean. But the tower that started toppling over, corrected itself in falling straight down into the tower's footprint. AN OBVIOUS SIGN OF DEMOLITION.

I was 21 yrs old living in Missouri during 9/11. I wasn't aware that a third building collapsed at free-fall until recently which creates a sense of misinformation regarding the two plane collision. How can two planes destroy three building in the same fashion? How does office fire melt steel? These questions need new answers.

High school education without any real applicable experience. Just a concerned citizen.
I'm persuaded based on the evidence presented by ae911truth that building 7 in particular did not collapse as a result of the fire or collateral damage sustained from the collapse of towers 1 & 2. Also, if evidence is found to prove this building didn't collapse but was set for demolition, all the events of that day need to be re-examined. We the people owe our children a country that is unafraid of hard questions, to never cease in our pursuit of whatever justice can be found for this horrific attack on our way of life.
