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.

No building is designed to collapse like the twin towers, and that side building which wasn't even hit. The Oklahoma bombing destroyed more then half the building and it was still standing afterward. 911 seems like a Wall Street self-destruction plan with the approval of the government.

Having re-looked at the footage recently and thought about how buildings actually perform in the event of fire (regardless of cause), I realized that planes alone could not bring down / pulverize a building into dust! This is a simple fact. If you consider that all the floors below the plane strikes were untouched by fire or impact (the towers were built to withstand plane strikes)... their structural strength would be intact and therefore could NOT simply collapse.

I have reviewed the video footage made by two French filmmakers, the Naudet Brothers, while in New York on September 11 making a documentary of the New York Fire Service. The footage shows that, while filming in Canal Street, firemen and crew are distracted by a plane flying low overhead. The camera operator instinctively turns his camera towards the North Tower and, for little more than a second or so, we get a clear view of the plane crashing into the tower. Before the plane strikes it fires a missile that blows a hole in the building's fa'ade. This is the cause of that brief flash. The plane then begins to disappear neatly into this hole, leaving no wing impressions. Just before it disappears however it fires two more missiles from somewhere near its tail. One goes to the left, one to the right (and up a bit) and it is the blast holes from these three separate missiles that form the great gash across the building.

There is no scientific means that the crash of the jets and subsequent fires could have caused the structural failure and collapse of Tower 7 and Towers 1,2. If well observed in all collapses one can see demolition blasts sequences as the tower come down. Surely they must be thermite charges because they are the only type explosive that could generate the heat for structural steel failure and sequential collapse. Also when one sees the vaporization of human and material remains and the debris pike below glowed at 3000 degrees f with thermite traces, it is obvious it was a black ops operation.

I'm neither an architect nor an engineer. But when one sees the demise of the three skyscrapers , it's obvious that they fell from the same stimulus, because their collapses look identical. If burning jet fuel brought the Twin Towers down, then how to we explain the identical collapse of a building that wasn't struck by an airplane? The answer is...we cannot.

The uniform collapse at the speed of gravity with no resistance seems impossible to me without controlled demolition. I also question how massive steel structural members found embedded in buildings as far as 600' away can be accounted for without having an initial blast force to propel them horizontally.

Anyone who has played with building blocks as a child or played the game Jenga knows that the towers did not fall from the planes hitting them. Anyone who can google knows that the fires from the jet fuel did not melt the metal and cause the towers to collapse. It is very apparent to anyone who has seen a video of a building being imploded that the towers were controlled implosions.

I believe the citizens of the United States were lied to on 9/11 regarding what brought the buildings down. Especially WTC7. I call for Congress to begin a new investigation and allow the eye witness statements and the scientific evidence to be presented.

Steel framed structures do not collapse in the manner witnessed on 9/11 due to ordinary fires, from airplane impacts, nor from jet fuel explosion and/or fires the physics do not allow for these parameters. Further, collapses leaving the evidence found at all 3 sites would indicate that explosives were used.

I am just an ordinary citizen. I just finished watching your movie on Amazon. I had no idea anyone had ever disputed the official facts of 9/11. I can remember the first time I saw footage of the Twin Towers coming down. I told my daughter and my girlfriend it looked like a planned demolition of those buildings. I never felt those buildings would collapse that way. Over the years I never said anything as I was afraid I would be called a conspiracy nut. I 100% believe the findings shown in this film. And I believe 'We the People' should demand an official investigation.

The rights of the people need to be heard. The 9/11 victims and their families need justice and the truth. We need more people with expertise who are not afraid to speak up about how the twin towers really fell. We do not need to be fed anymore lies through the government and the media. We the people are catching on to the truth. Stop to all these lies. We need more transparency, not cover ups. A society can not survive on lies and deception it will crumble and fall. We can do better. We can heal from the corruption of the system. We just need to begin with the truth. We can build a better world.

I saw it live on CNN News, and I already knew what I'd seen was not true. The way the buildings fell struck me as very like a controlled demolition. And I am not an engineer, either. And how does aluminum cut through the massive outer and inner columns! Anybody should know that jet fuel burns at around 700 degrees! My first job was in an auto/scrap yard cutting steel with a torch, and we used thermite for special jobs in the yard, so I've seen what it does. And to top it off, Building 7 does the same, not even near the two main towers.

I think the USG has withheld enough information from the public, and we all know there are too many unanswered questions regarding this tragedy. Unanswered questions, unfound money, cover ups, lies and deceit. Lets reopen it and let John Q.

I am only using my common sense. People don't need to be scientists or experts on demolitions to see what really happened with those three WTC buildings. There are so many proofs that the buildings didn't fall down because of the fire, it just doesn't make any sense. Use of explosive material is obvious. I don't care who did this, I want to know what happened that day and why.

The factual evidence seems to support a controlled demolition. It is my understanding that odds of a fire burning hot enough to compromise a beam is very unlikely. It is impossible to my understanding to conceive that just one beam collapsing would cause an unresisted fall of the whole tower.

I believe the 2 towers were demolished using very advanced technology. WTC 7 was a traditional building demo. All of this took time to plan and execute. Aerial photos of the aftermath show white powder (pulverized concrete) covering lower Manhattan. Very little debris for such massive structures. Lobby walls still standing shows falling debris cleared of natural path of gravity.
