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.

The collapse of all three buildings appears exactly like building demolitions I have seen before. The most logical explanation for the buildings collapsing vertically so quickly is that it occurred due to planned demolition, as proven in the film.

The visual evidence of secondary explosions plus the fact that it takes a blast furnace with forced oxygen to soften steel make it obvious there are many more facts than those that are commonly known.

I have reviewed and endorse David Chandler's methodology for calculating the acceleration of World Trade Center 7 as available in the video footage. The evidence strongly suggests World Trade Center 7 is in freefall for a substantial amount of time (~2-3 seconds), which is inconsistent with a natural collapse; freefall indicates the absence of any structural resistance and in my opinion this absence can only be explained by human intervention.

Communications Field Tech in Manhattan, with an A.A.S. in Electronics Engineering Technology as well as a musician/concerned citizen. I was 3/4 of a mile away from WTC when I witnessed the planes impact the buildings and the subsequent collapse of the towers. I performed some tasks near Ground Zero for a few days after and remained working downtown further away from the site afterwards. I am one of thousands who are being monitored by the Mt. Sinai health monitoring program. Much to the dismay of the Bush crime family, I ain't dead yet! Disclaimer: I am not an architect or a building engineer.
It's glaringly obvious that the 9/11 Commission Report was a white-wash. I also received my first lessons on the 9/11 cover-up by David Ray Griffin. I wasn't hip to the whole explosives theory though UNTIL I watched the power-point presentation and the other videos of Mr. Gage on this site. I couldn't get over the magnitude of such an operation (placing thousands of charges) but, as Mr. Gage points out, you have to look at the evidence FIRST. I witnessed lateral ejections of metal and glass at the beginning of collapse but, it didn't send up any flags at the time because I'm not a C.D. expert.

I was in Romania after the 1977 earthquake, which destroyed and damaged a number of buildings in Bucharest. I saw buildings that had pancaked and know that this is not the process that occurred with the WTC buildings. I support the call for an independent investigation because the public needs to understand what actually happened and the perpetrators must face justice.

Drafted into the U.S. Army, 1969-1970 and assigned to the Command Experimentation Development Command studying, analyzing, field testing, reporting and data collection and storage related to advance technology and its use in combat. Worked in the Advance Technology Lab at UCLA, School of Engineering while earning a BSEE in computer science, and attending a year of graduate school. Professional career included wide array of engineering, systems analysis, program and project management, marketing, strategic planning, business development and general management, in computer manufacturing and financial information systems, with senior and executive management responsibility. Founded several start-ups, including a small family business severing Yosemite National Park visitors since 1995. I am active in community affairs, and have served in an elected position.
I worked in the World Trade Center for several years. It was seen by many as a trusted feat of engineering, but more importantly a safe place to work and view the City - even in sever windy weather. Not knowing, for sure, why it collapsed will forever leave scars and breed doubt about the safety of such structures. Not only those who lost love ones, but those who place their trust in new structures, need to know that everything of conjecture was thoroughly reviewed; that design, fabrication, and operation of new buildings breed out whatever weaknesses that could lead to such a collapse. The evidence clearly leaves in doubt that this was not done. Trust in our government is just as important. As it stands, how can the public trust their elected officials or appointed staff? A new, properly conducted investigation is critical to all concerned!

The official version of the destruction of the towers does not stand up to scrutiny. The destruction of the towers could only have been achieved by the use of internally positioned explosives. This obviously changes the whole perspective of what really happened on that day.

I'm not sure exactly what happened, but what is extraordinarily apparent is that we have been lied to and there has been a cover up. Because this incident was used by the gov't to justify the violation of our inalienable rights as US citizens, through various legislation including the Patriot Act, transparency of the highest priority and integrity was necessary. Yet, the People of these United States of America have been left with more questions than answers, while we have witnessed blatant contradictions and discrepancies in official stories. The only thing that is clear is that our own government was hiding something then, and it's hiding something now. And this hidden something has been used in blatant contradiction and in opposition of the guaranteed LIBERTIES of the US Constitution which cannot be lost or stolen or given away under any circumstances. It is well past time for the truths surrounding these things to come to light. Personally, I no longer trust those in charge and would like to suggest that we set about a reestablishment of government as is our right under such corrupt conditions. Thank you.

Any person with ANY experience in building demolition could easily tell the order of detonation of the explosive charges and have a relatively good idea of the placement of the charges that brought down all 3 of the buildings in New York, NY on 9/11/2001. The evidence is overwhelming. The evidence is blatantly obvious. To ignore it reeks of criminal complicity.

Initial viewing of the devastation and loss was mind numbing and heartbreaking. However, watching video of the disaster a couple of years later, with special attention to WTC7, it became apparent that that building was brought down intentionally in my opinion and NOT by fire. Reviewing WTC 1&2 revealed indicators similar to WTC7. AND the fact that all three bldgs imploded near perfectly into themselves is like a dead giveaway showing the observer clue after clue. Fire alone couldn't bring down WTC7 and demo squibs are visible preceding the pancaking of both towers as well as enormousbooms emanating from the basements of the first tower prior to free fall of upper section.
