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.

Thirty-three years of engineering research and development experience in U.S. Navy laboratory ground test facilities. Chief Engineer for 15 years for the laboratory's wind tunnel complex, including the world's largest hypervelocity wind tunnel.
The official 9/11 story seems to violate laws of physics and engineering analysis, specifically with respect to the collapse acceleration and the temperatures of molten iron. The only explanation that seems to be in accordance with all observations is controlled demolition.

I have plenty of experience with math and physics. I've also worked in an engineering firm that used steel. I have personally melted steel with a blowtorch and have an understanding of how hard it is to get steel hot enough to bend, let alone fail completely.
Building 7 says it all. Show me someone who watches that news footage and believes that it's anything but a controlled demolition, and I'll show you either an idiot, or someone with blind faith in our government.

The World Trade Center 7 building collapsing in a symmetrical manner nearly at the rate of gravity led me to question the official story. The fact that WTC7 was only mentioned as a foot note in the 9/11 Commission Report furthered my suspicions. Not long after the Report was published I found this website and have researched the circumstances surrounding 9/11 much closer. There is so much overwhelming evidence that I could no longer sit idly by.

I can't believe how scary it is to say it, but it needs to be said: skyscrapers do not fall down at free fall acceleration rates. When the towers fell I was an undergraduate in college and barely into the engineering curriculum. By September 12th I knew something was incredibly wrong.

Formally trained engineer with understanding of thermodynamics and structural engineering (robotics design).
Based upon observation of debris field, smoke patterns, lack of standing columns, presence of bent columns with no visible stress fractures, photos of column remains indicating use of linear explosives, as well as lack of historical evidence of steel buildings of this nature collapsing from fire, it appears highly improbable that not one, not two, but three steel towers collapsed from fire within several hours of each other.

Expert in machine design and analysis; applied statistics; concept development; process improvement. Elected to Village Trustee for three terms (6 years); EMT volunteer since 1993; Scout Master; Sailor; Progressive
I never believed the official story since day one. Three of us watched it on TV and all agreed what we saw is not possible. I understand what it takes to melt steel. I understand that lots of smoke means a cool limited active fire. I simply do not believe a small band of foreigners could so completely fool the entire US security system. I do not pretend to know who was behind this; but it is clear all three buildings were controlled demolitions. I suspect Building #7 was used to bring down the Towers; then demolished to hide evidence. The Pentagon story is just as un-believable/Improbable. An investigation must be started ASAP to find out what actually happened. Rocky M. Van Asten, P.E.

I attended community college in the late 90's and majored in physics and mathematics. I transferred to university but never completed my bachelor's degree. I am very well educated about the fundamentals of physics, although not engineering, and I certainly feel that I have the expertise to conclude that there are more falsehoods than truths in the 9/11 Commission Report.
Every element of a controlled demolition that should be present was on 9/11. The fire based collapse conjecture does not adequately account for the amount of dust, the molten metal, the free fall rate of collapse, etc. Occam's razor dictates that the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. Controlled demolition accounts for the entire event. The fire based collapse requires a string of highly unlikely coincidences to be feasible. And, of course, 9/11 was the perfect event to justify two seemingly endless wars that are reaping *massive* profits for a select few defense contractors. All logic points to the unimaginable conclusion that those charged with protecting us were at the very least complicit in the terrorist attack in history.

By any objective analysis of the inconsistencies and factual evidence available to any member of the public; there is obviously a great divide between what truly happened and what has been provided as the fed to an accepting American Public via a cooperative media industry. In total, this represents a bloodless coup in America and until full disclosure is forced, the control of this nation by an unseen group of people and organizations will continue and will grow in its removal of civil rights and free speech. The window is closing each and every day, and the folks orchestrating this scenario are the most powerful and evil humans to ever walk this planet. It would be hard to overstate the ramifications of this scenario.

The American people, but more importantly the anguished families who endure a life of endless suffering from having lost a loved one in the WTC building collapses, deserve to know the truth of what happened. They deserve to know the real truth to have some sense of closure and if possible to get some justice for their loved one. In my opinion there are too many unanswered questions regarding the way the investigation was done and how a conclusion was reached. The American people can clearly see that the conclusion given in the report of how the towers came down is a farce. The preponderance of the evidence (even from a clandestine investigation) still leaves questions as to how the towers fell and shows how ludicrously the investigation was handled and reported by the commission. Even a person who was 'born yesterday' can clearly see through the smoke and mirrors of this investigation. So if a person like that can clearly see the injustice being brought forward to the American public, imagine what an American citizen who lost a loved one must be feeling. Total betrayal! A new independent investigation should be done with no records being held secret. This should be a new investigation with independent oversight by a newly elected commission. This way the people who were impacted the most may feel that they weren't bamboozled.

There is a lot of evidence about the 9/11 WTC destruction that was not compiled or considered in the official report. I am not satisfied the truth was revealed. As a citizen, I think this important happening should be re-investigated.

Let me start by saying that I am not a conspiracy theorist. I have no idea who was responsible for the WTC buildings coming down, what their motives were, or anything of that nature. What I do know is the three buildings that collapsed that day were, without a doubt, brought down by controlled demolition. You don't have to be a scientist or a genius to figure that out. The conspiracy theory seems to be what is found on the pages of the 9/11 Commission's report.

About politics from what I had previously come to believe and after watching the WTC towers fall (on video), I believe them to have been an engineerd demolition. IMO, the multitude of reasons for their collapse (the reasons why responsibile parties committed these heinous crimes) runs deeper than most can or want to imagine. I would as an empathetic American to the families of all who suffered.....love to see justice be done in this matter.Thank you for what you do. '''

An observer and analyzer of all available resources on this event.
Very simple. The symmetry of the collapses is too perfect for the non-symmetrical damage occurring to the WTC buildings, internally and externally. Support columns, floors, etc would need to fail at the same time for the falls to occur that perfectly, as in a controlled demolition of a building. Most controlled demolitions that have been recorded aren't as perfect as the 9/11 one was. Very precise.

As witnesses have testified that they heard explosions throughout the WTC Towers before their collapses, and as science has demonstrated that the plane strikes were not of sufficient severity to cause the collapse of each tower and WTC Building 7, really we have to get to the truth of this event.

"This 'out of scope' gambit is just a pretext for refusing to acknowledge the imperative for open discussion - its is no more than a ploy to evade the responsibility of recognising the actual facts available from the analysis. What they are trying to avoid having recognised is the fact that the notion of ""deceleration through load amplification' is a false premise, posited initially for the purpose of obfuscating the truth revealed by the analyses provided by AE-9/11"
