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've studied the structure of building 7, the collapse, & much more material. That collapse is impossible without cutting near all the columns together, as is the case with a pre-determined demolition. Building 7 was also shown in a BBC video collapsing in real time, over the shoulder of a reporter who was telling us it already collapsed 20 minutes earlier. All the tower fires across the world have been analysed, not one matched the details of the 911 events. The collapse of B7 must have been pre-determined and not part of any knock on affect from the other collapse over 400m away. As for the twin towers I have serious problems with the media story. It does not add up. A side point penetration would have created a sideways falling, not free fall straight down. That is elemental. I do not believe the account given by government, 'official' investigations and media.

' As a former fighter pilot, I regard the failure to intercept the first airliner on 9/11 prior to impact, as one of the worst derelictions of duty in the history of this nation. We routinely scramble fighters 80 to 100 times every year to intercept 'unknowns,' some even turning out to be flocks of birds or radar ghosts. An alert interceptor from FLORIDA could possibly have arrived in time to intercept the first airliner. I'm sure it would have broken the pilot's heart to shoot down an airplane full of people: the inevitability of its flightpath makes the math simple: they were going to die, drop them somewhere that minimizes additional deaths on the ground. An airliner switching off its transponder squawk, turning 180 degrees off course and failing to respond to radio calls, sets off alarms across the entire Eastern seaboard. Don't try to feed me the crap the media was spooning out, that Boeing 767's 'disappeared' from radar. Civil air traffic control routinely informs pilots of flocks of birds, which show up well on low-tech air traffic control radar even though their squawks lack airspeed and altitude telemetry, and NORAD TRACKS SCREWS DROPPED BY ASTRONAUTS IN SPACE. Failing to intercept an aircraft in these circumstances is equivalent to gunners smoking and joking on the deck of your ship watching kamikazes crash into it. That's just the first impact. Recall that at that moment, there were two or three other aircraft 180 degrees off course with transponders and radios off: CONFIRMED HOSTILES FLYING TOWARDS OUR NATION'S CAPITAL. National defense policies adhered to for decades require enough interceptors sitting strip alert 24 / 7 / 365, within striking distance of the world's most heavily defended target in the most powerful nation on earth, to get most of a *squadron* on station in the time available. And instead, several news crews perform the intercept successfully WITH HELICOPTERS; so we can watch on TV while it happens TWO MORE TIMES. Next you have two buildings collapsing symmetrically into their own footprints, in defiance of the laws of physics, after taking hits they were specifically designed to withstand. And then a third, that wasn't hit by anything. After that, we watch while for some 200 days firefighters pump water into the steaming wreckage, to cool down exactly what? YOU CAN'T MELT STEEL WITH KEROSENE, right? Black smoke means low-temperature, oxygen-starved combustion, right? Water from fire sprinklers will not extinguish a petroleum fire, fuel spills absent retardant generally burn until all the fuel is gone, right? Why do you suppose the steel scrap recovered from the debris was shipped off to CHINA as quickly as it could be loaded onto trucks and ships, while even routine analyses was FORBIDDEN, if only in the interest of discovering why this steel failed so remarkably--a failure unprecedented in the history of engineering? As a military man you could not look me in the eye and try to tell me that an operation the size of our invasion of Iraq was possible without planning begun more than a YEAR prior to 9/11. I don't give a damn about any 'conspiracy theories,' theories are not relevant to the dereliction, omissions and obviously preplanned fabrications associated with 9/11.

I am of German decent and will NOT go quietly into the darkness. In fact, I will NEVER go into the darkness. I expect the US pseudo government to never investigate this or other false flags and expect bombs to explode in the US soon that will be untruthfully blamed on 'the terrorists'. The truth may well be that Masad and other 'inside terrorists' will have created the false flag(s). What is new? Be Open. Be Alive. BE! What more is there to say? Just watch the video footage without prejudice. What is amazing is how 'stupid' we have been trained to become. How about Standing UP? One man standing in front of an army tank at China's Tenenaman Square, stopped the tyrannical government bureaucracy. Don't start the revolution without ME either.

I have a Master's degree (German 'Diplom') in Materials Science and Technology and can therefore relate very well to the vindicated doubts many people have about the official 9/11 story.
I studied and learned lots about materials' properties, how they behave, what stresses and temperatures they can resist, etc. I also know about the laws of physics, as well as the mechanics of materials and structures. No building can just fall to the ground at the speed of fall, nor can megatons of steel and concrete just be turned into dust WITHOUT the help of explosives!

B Arch from Texas Tech University 1979. I'm a commercial architect working on a wide range of project types including hi-rise, medical, educational, industrial, and retail. These projects' budgets go up to $300M.
The collapse of building 7 cannot be explained by office (furnishings) fire. The anatomy of the collapse cannot be explained by a single column failure at one end of the building. Additionally, the evidence of thermite, dismissed by the official reports without testing, demands that further investigation be conducted. Obviously, if building 7 came down as the result of planned demolition then grave questions about our government are raised.

I am a retired Electronic Design Specialist and Computer Specialist, 53 years old, male. At my work, I used computers in design of circuits and PC boards. I also use them to consider stress forces, material suitability and sizes for construction of many types of machinery, small buildings and appropriate design factors. These are mostly small items, not large buildings, but I understand the concept behind the large building structural design. I am American, Constitutionalist, Free Man, anti-communist, Prolife, Born again Christian and willing to live for my country!
I believe that the buildings were intentionally brought down by pre-planted explosives and that the public was deceived by the use of non commercial jets. Building #7 is the Achilles heel, where you can here the count down to raze it, but it was not hit by any jet or missile. Also the Pentagon was not hit by a 767 or 757; there is just not enough of a hole in the building. I believe that it was a small cruise missile or other type of weapon.

After 30 years of teaching in the Engineering and Science Dept at Virginia Tech, I am now retired but still involved in performing research and writing technical papers. I have been involved in low-speed aerodynamics specialized in the analysis of wind load on low-rise structures.
About two years ago after hearing and reading the work by David Ray Griffin, I decided to look into the history of the collapse of the World Trade center towers. It is clear to me that the official explanation including the evidence presented by the 9/11 Commission is inadequate to explain the collapse of the towers. I am convinced that a new independent commission with complete subpoena power should be installed to find out the complete truth of 9/11. If we don't the same thing may happen in the future.

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"
