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.

Do you have the strength to explore the content of this website prior to rendering judgement? If so, you are sadly going to encounter disturbing news. this should lead to action==> if Freedom is simply a colloquialism to you, don't waste your time exploring this information. When understanding exists, hatred and judgement is impossible.

I am myself a civil engineer in constructions. I am not specialized in fire or skyscrapers calculations. But by the way tower 7 falls just because of fire, meaning perfect, coordinated failure and free fall makes me think that the fire explanation sounds not real for me.

Occupation: Program Manager
I have a professional career that has spanned many industries. I was an intern at American Airlines at the time of 9/11. I was a flight operations avionics engineer working at the maintenance operations center which oversaw all the planes that were in service. I worked as a field engineer in the west Texas oil fields after college. I transitioned into working on power distribution for the local utility in Chicago. Then I got into the nuclear power industry as a controls engineer. My next stop was working at an architecture/engineering firm in the building automation space. I have been inside the guts of many facilities and worked alongside plenty of architects and other engineers. I have since moved on to the operations side where I work for a RE services company that performs facility management. I have a BS in Electrical Engineering from Missouri University of Science and Technology, with a minor in Philosophy. I have an MS in Engineering Management from Northwestern University. I am a licensed PE in Illinois.
My interest in this is not to find out about some conspiracy regarding some powerful entity that wronged so many people, but I am more concerned about the industry not learning anything from such a tragedy. We had three catastrophic engineering failures occur in less then 12hrs and I imagine that little has changed in the building code or the principles with which we design these structures. If a trauma and fire took down both towers so quickly, what failed? It sounds like we do not have a good answer that we can improve future buildings with.

I work out of the triangle area in the Raleigh, North Carolina. I also run a successful ebay business on the side.
I always thought that all 3 World Trade Center building collapses were due to a controlled demolition of some type. Watching AE911Truth analysis confirmed my suspicions. I was in New York City from Sept 12th through Sept 16th in 2001. I distinctly remember the smell of sulfur and the smell of magnesium in the air downtown through those days. I never put it all together on why those smells were present at the time. Watching AE911Truth confirmed for me the reason why I was smelling sulfur and magnesium in the air. A new and in depth non biased investigation needs to be held on why these hard target structures collapsed. The American people deserve to know the truth. What really happened that day and what really happened to those buildings?

I am a structural engineer who as a young engineer working for McLaren Engineering Group out of West Nyack, NY, visited and helped with the demolition at the World Trade Center site. I later went on to earn my PE and continued to work on building design and other smaller structural engineering jobs including structures in the entertainment industry and marine engineering. My license is temporarily inactive for last few years, as I am staying home with 3 small children.
If evidence is surfacing that raises new questions about the events of 9/11, I support uncovering the true motives of the attack and any related responsible parties that had a part in planning the destruction of the World Trade Center. There are too many unanswered questions that are outstanding and are contrary to what has been presented to the public as factual.

I am signing this petition because of the evidence pointing to a controlled demolition. The investigation completed by NIST/FEMA and the 9/11 Commission was incomplete and never intended to veer from their pre-established narrative regarding the events of 9/11. The poor explanation of events by the 9/11 Commission do not follow several laws of science and are not a satisfactory explanation for the crime that occurred on this date.

I knew as I watched them fall on 9/11 that it was not due to the planes. And Building 7, WTC, that was not hit by anything, and just had a small fire from the tower's collapsing, went down about 5PM 9/11, from what was such an obvious per-rigged demolition, it defies all reason to deny it - but the great lie stuck.

Not hard to see the narrative given on this day is false. Building 7 is the key to the whole false story. There are also too many once in a lifetime phenomenon that happened that day. Airplanes that size don't disappear into a building without the wings, engines, landing gear, and tail left laying around. This story that killed Americans on our soil goes against real science and physics!

I was just another slave, living in ignorance among the herd. Born into a great family full of love and support. I had a very trouble free childhood. Fine grades through common core crap K-12.
Before 2012 I didn't think past, 'That's just a crazy conspiracy theory.' But then Sandy Hook happened and it was incredibly obvious what happened there. That opened up my mind and immediately I saw the truth. It has been 6 years of researching this now. Trying to wake up my friends and family but the truth causes cognitive dissonance. The destruction of the buildings, in my opinion, was caused by a combination of implanted explosives.

I am a 39 year old, I am an artist and my education never ends. I am a very concerned citizen of the world. Originally from England I now live in Thailand. I left England because I was disgusted with England's involvement in the wars that occurred as a result of the 911 attacks.
The way this incident has been dealt with is beyond a joke and incredibly sickening. Without any public feedback the American government refused to be logical about the 911 attacks and based upon them declared war on Iraq and Afghanistan, wars that continue today. This is all highly suspicious and needs to be deeply investigated with logical intelligence and by humanitarian minded people who are dedicated to enforcing the true word of the law. Justice must be sought.

I studied the evidence and read books, watched the movies, went to the site and put the obvious clues together, and then the murders began again of many of the witnesses that were still alive and saw things, all the videos from local security cameras were confiscated. And the missile that hit the pentagon didn't even try to look like a plane! And it hit the accounting dept. that held all the info about the missing 9-11 trillion that Rumsfeld announced the day prior was just missing!! ie: stolen by criminals on the inside of our gov.!! Then they pay off the victims left behind to make them rich to shut them up! everyone saw the cut angled beams- Larry Silverstein admitted 'he told them to pull the building' - classic term for 'controlled demolition' which it was- a total fraud perpetrated against the american people and those insurance co's forced to pay off! Then used as an excuse to attack other countries and run more drugs and human trafficking and pedophilia thanks to the satanists bush mafia clan of criminals! No diff. than the gulf of tonkin false flag pulled off by murdering kennedy and johnson held stock in arms co's and profited off every bullet shot aside from the heroin run through laos!!
It was an inside job by Cheney and the Bushes! It was the Great Gold Heist along with 3000 murders and getting paid from 5 insurance co's for Lucky Larry Silverstein all procured by Bushes Brother, Neil and then the other brother ran the security for the buildings (ie: ran the bomb setting operation, beam angle cutting and thermite setting. Cheney told our forces to stand down when we were under attack! Bush Baby read a book about a goat to a school of kids. (Goat subject = Satanic) Vegas Bets - Who go the $$ that knew it was going to happen.SO, instead of paying to remove a known set of building that were asbestos laden and losing tenants- they made $$$, robbed the gold vault at the same heist and murdered the competition along with others told to remain in the building. The buildings -all 3-including #7 were disintegrated them into dust-asbestos laden dust!! Bush ordered the evidence thermite laden dirt hauled off to China and hidden-buried to tamper with the evidence. Then within a few weeks arrives the 'patriot act' over 2000 pages pre-written and now approved to illegally remove our rights to protect us from our enemies- but really removed our rights...all a lock down fraud to control and manipulate the public over this false flag bs operation done by the bush/clinton/rumsfeld criminal cabal!

I am a self taught Contractor all disciplines. Building projects from Cabinetry to Recording Studios. I have managed Large manufacturing and warehousing facilities. I am involved in Aviation, Web authoring and other business support systems.
I have no idea about what happened on 9/11. As most of the population does not. I have concerns about the myriad discrepancies around the official story. Through my own research and understanding of standard construction practices, I have serious doubts of the official narrative regarding the destruction of the three building in New York city. Being involved in aviation, I can not understand how these complex aircraft were operated by novices at best and flown, sometime outside the envelope, with the apparent skill level beyond most seasoned captains. I, like many, request a full and open investigation into all aspects of the event that thrust us into a 'war on terror'
