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 have viewed different videos of the collapses of the World Trade Center buildings and watched eyewitness accounts of the collapses. After considering people's accounts and the evidence demonstrating how demolished buildings go down, I have reason to believe the government's explanations are not clear or true. For these reasons a private party investigation is needed to uncover the truth of what happened.

I have had 2 years of college level physics while studying to work in the printing and publishing industry, which I had worked in for 20 years. Although that's not a lot, it has provided me with enough knowledge of physics to follow and understand your presentations. I am currently self-employed as a music/graphics teacher in NYC.
I, like many others, didn't really concern myself too much with 9/11 until I discovered the truth about a year ago. I stumbled upon an A&E 9/11 Truth video about thermite that changed my world. After jumping into the research ocean with both feet, I firmly believe that the official explanation of what happened on 9/11 could not possibly be accurate. I believe, from looking at a lot of evidence (special thanks to your website), that all 3 WTC collapses were caused by controlled demolition. I believe the airplanes flown into WTC 1 & 2 were meant to be seen as a powerful enough catalyst to bring on the total collapse of the towers. Although flying an airplane into the side of a building can do some harm, I don't feel the heat or damage would be enough to bring the towers down the way they fell. As far as Building 7 goes, a straight-down, symmetrical collapse at free-fall speed into it's own footprint for no real apparent reason can, in my opinion, only mean one thing; they had the cream-of-the-crop demolition experts at their disposal.

I have studied the collapses of the Twin Towers and Building 7 for a while now and have come to the conclusion that they were brought down in a controlled demolition. The theory that it collapsed from damage and fire violates several laws of physics. The two most important being the Law of Conservation of Momentum and the law of Angular Momentum. Building 7 was a classic example of a controlled demolition. The fact the Building 7 was never mentioned in the 9/11 Commission Report is alarming. We need a new investigation into the events of 9/11.

About 2003 it was clear to me that the twin towers and building 7 came down via explosives. I added my name to A&E911Truth. I invited Richard Gage to speak here in Worcester, MA. He stayed overnight at our house. My husband - retired USAF Colonel - supports AE911 truth. I have convinced some people about the towers, but most of my friends will not talk about it or just believe it is a conspiracy theory. We do need another rigorous and thorough and honest investigation because gradually our country is being destroyed - we as a nation need to face the truth.

I witnessed the demolition collapse. The collapse and statements from the rescue workers confirmed molten steel which cannot occur from jet fuel heat but does occur from incendiary type demolition explosives. This and the steel framed structure failure requires better explanation than the official version. Even the monument girder in Jersey City shows evidence of extreme heat (heat compatible with incendiary type demolition explosives). There are too many unanswered questions.

I do not believe the official story on 9/11. I believe it is a big cover up. Most people never question what the government tells them. I believe if you do not want to be a sheep, easily led by the media, you need to question everything that is said by the government. Some of what they say is true, some things are not. It is up to the citizens to determine the difference. I believe we are being obviously misled on 9/11.

I was scheduled on a flight to Chicago for a meeting with other Network Associates engineers when my wife was watching the collapse of building 2 on September 11, 2001. I was stunned and felt that there was something wrong with the picture. A few years later I saw a video of the collapse of building 7 and recognized immediately that it was a planned demolition. At that time, I became truly outraged at the lies that were being told. As I watched the video, I realized that 9/11 was probably a 'false flag' attack. All my friends thought and still think I am crazy. Signing this petition is important to me in my role as a teacher of Buddhist Meditation in the tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. We must have the truth be told so that our confidence in the government can be restored.

It is still hard to believe that the twin trade towers along with building 9 fell straight down into its own footprint like many of the old casinos in Las Vegas did when they demoed them in order to build a newer fancy casino.What's even harder to believe are the events as they played out beginning with the rapid removal of debris from the site before an investigation could accurately be conducted. There are too many details that do not make any sense when compared to the official story. I've been to the site on two different occasions over the last five years, and I still have many more unanswered questions than I do answers that make sense. I hope to learn the truth of what really happened before I die of old age. Thank you for your efforts and devotion to seeking the truth.

I remember the day vividly. I was living in Chicago and like most of the world, was too shocked by what I saw to doubt the details until much later. If justice and truth are indeed long overdue then I think it's time to change that.

At age 27 I became a licensed California building contractor and for many years worked closely with architects and engineers specializing in construction and remodeling projects in high-rise condominium buildings in San Francisco, CA.
Steel frame structures with massive vertical steel columns such as these do not simply powderize during a collapse, as had been shown repeatedly in mainstream media broadcasts. Nor would they simply fall straight down within their own footprint, if one or or more floors fail due to fire. The fact that WTC Building 7 collapsed in the manner of a professionally conducted demolition, and without being struck by a plane, leads any reasonable observer to conclude the Twin Towers were also wired with explosives.

Also, involved with Jehovah's Christian Witnesses - baptized since 1973 - 1982. I then married and raised a daughter and son.
I immediately discerned by virtue of pure logic that, as the group of engineers expounded, the WTC Twin Towers did not fall and explode due to the two planes crashing into the upper part of both buildings, inclusive of fuel expulsion and fires. I believed that there had to be foundation detonation for the buildings to completely implode to dust. The government of the United States is guilt ridden, and we as American born citizens deserve to know all the facts. I believe in the truth at all times, because lies and evasiveness is all too prevalent in modern years. Truth is truth, lies are lies and anything in the middle is sabotage!

Innocent bystander on the world stage. Broken-hearted seeing those scenes on the television. This was a game-changer in international politics, therefore the world must know the truth however awful it is to hear.
Looks suspect. Buildings don't usually fall down like that except in controlled demolitions. Too many unanswered questions, too many suspect theories, too little facts, too many loose ends not adequately followed up. Cui bono?

Going all the way back to the fraudulent 2000 election and to all of the war crimes committed by the the Bush/Cheney administration, it is way beyond past due that not only the victims of 9/11 and their families but also the millions of Afghans and Iraqis along with the thousands of U.S. soldiers that lost their lives in the ''war on terror '' get much deserved justice for what really happened! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work your organization is doing! It's so great to finally see this many scientists and experts taking this topic out of the '' fringe '' areas of conspiracy theory and shining the light of truth on it! I remember being in my early to mid 20's when 9/11 happened and trying to explain to people that were so gassed on blind patriotism and nationalism to look past the political BS and to even consider the possibility that there was way more going on than what they were being spoon fed by the partisan media and government puppets. It left me feeling so angry and disillusioned about real justice even being possible. Obviously it isn't an easy road, but with your work and efforts so far, I feel that eventually the truth will out itself. Thank you again!

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the 3 towers were brought down by controlled demolition. It is my belief that the American government, and others, carried out the attacks, and staged the whole events surrounding the attacks. The planes were used as decoys, to hide the fact that the buildings were already primed for explosive demolition.

Analysis of the collapse must include all building contents, especially impacting aircraft tons of fuel, plastics, and aluminum. High rise structures should have water based foam (UFFI) fire suppression as water sprinklers are just not as effective. Investigation needs to include $8+ Trillion dollar debt of the most senior Govt officials and Middle East Oil Industry Elites. The Sept 11th Investigation must include Gold reserves moving down the Hudson just before this disaster. Investigation must include ownership change and new insurance coverage against any loss. Who knew what and when (In 1999 at ISO we initiated preservation protection of High Rise Structures from just such an event, why was this a concern then?)

9/11 was my wake up call. Today I know more than the general public and I would like others to learn the truth. This is necessary to change this poor world, that's it.
WTC Destruction clearly a CONTROLLED DEMOLITION, period. It's time to let the public know the truth and jail the known criminals who run our governments.
