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 been in the mechanical and electrical field of repair and modification for about 12 years. I have worked closely with engineers of many disciplines. I was in the military for 4 years. I have been involved in the root cause analysis of many accidents. Some of failed structural steel and other composite materials. I have studied metallurgy and what can cause fatigue in metals. I have also studied the live and dead load of flooring and the stresses caused by each to different materials used.
Steel buildings do not naturally collapse in the manner that was witnessed on 9-11. It is not possible that 2 would have collapsed in the same manner, yet we are told to believe that 3 collapsed in that manner. (within their own footprint and at near-free fall speed) We have had much smaller incidents that have been better studied than this world changing event. It has lead to laws being passed and conflicts with at least 2 nations. Yet the study of this incident has been incomplete and in most cases compiled of flawed testing... which is shameful.

As an engineering student I took civil and electrical engineering classes and polymers and material where we learned about material strength. I have to question how building 7 (and even tower 1 and 2) fell without any resistance. Building 7 was not hit at all. I question too the fact that there was not a residue of the airplanes. It is impossible; something has to be found. I feel Americans need a complete investigation of what really happened. I cried for days during 9/11. I held my children so tight and was afraid to let them go.I was in NYC during 9/11 and I smelled the dead bodies; it was a smell that I still smell when I think about that day.

The number of inconsistencies in the official story is staggering. Even if the fire created by the combustion of the plane fuel had the energy to melt or change the molecular structure of the steel, it could only do so on the Thermo affected area, which couldn't be bigger than a few meters long, making the existence of these effects on the base of the structure impossible, and therefore the character of the fall of the WTC impossible. Not to mention WTC 7.

Since 9/11 the problem of the truth about what really happened has been a thorn in my heart and dealing daily with good people fighting with me for peace and justice who did not want to talk about 9/11 truth was for me the most tremendous challenge. I wonder what a philosopher and what a pedagogue I am, if I still can not understand how honest, intelligent people can be more scared of truth than of an endless global war and of continuous attacks and restriction of civil rights and democracy based on anti-terrorist propaganda. In Italy Giulietto Chiesa gave a big contribution to the cause of 9/11 truth by his rigorous book and DVD Zero, ignored by most mainstream and grassroots media.

I realized, after 2 hours of watching and listening to TV on 911 about the events at the WTC, that the discernible facts were not as described by the frivolous official statements and later stories. However and by whomever the actions were carried out and the patsies recruited, it was totally different than the official statements concluded and reports indicated. My current conclusions, based upon extensive reading, historical comparisons, physical and chemical analysis, discussions, lectures, and the viewing of available videos, as well as the political, military, and financial policies that have been undertaken since 911, all support my initial assumptions about the 911 events.

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'm tired of living in a society that doesn't work, I'd like to either see it change or leave it altogether. Thank you for fighting for the truth, we need people like yourselves.

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. No more hidden power hungry, evil dictators trying to lead the country, and fill us up with lies. It is sad what they are doing.

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.

My education and experience has nothing to do with engineering or anything physically practical regarding the planned destruction of the towers, but I have an inherent nose for bologna and am an avid researcher, so I know the wool was plainly pulled over the entire country's eyes on 9/11.
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. Public be involved in it this time, our professionals who are putting this together should be the ones running it, NOT the money launderers and thieves in our government.

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.

Having retained an interest since the 9/11 events and finding the official explanations implausible, particularly in regard to Building 7, I appreciate the efforts of your organization to try and uncover the truth on this subject. I feel that this is an international affair that affected people from all over the world, and a new enquiry is long overdue.
