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.

It takes very little time to review existing evidence and become convinced that controlled demolition was involved. This indicates that we do not have a complete understanding of how 9/11 occurred nor who was involved. This cannot be ignored or forgotten, because incorrect understanding causes people and governments to form inappropriate perceptions and actions, which lead others to respond similarly.

I graduated from Boston University with a degree in Industrial Engineering in 1963, continued for two more years in Electrical Engineering in a Masters Program at UC Berkeley. In 1967 I began full-time employment as an electronic engineer for the next six years. After this time I continued to work as an electronics and then software engineer for several other companies.
After reading all of Professor David Ray Griffin's books about 9/11 -- especially his last one, The Mysterious Collapse of World Trade Center 7 -- I find it simply impossible to believe the official government conspiracy narrative regarding the events of 9/11. The NIST report of WTC7's collapse was, for me, the icing on the cake confirming my disbelief.

I became keenly aware that something wasn't right about the whole scenario surrounding the collapse of two skyscrapers. Having grown up in the shadow of the Empire State Building in New York City in my youth and young adult life, I remember hearing in school that lower Manhattan was Ground Zero in the event of nuclear attack. Living and working in skyscrapers is the norm in NYC. They are virtually indestructible given the amount of steel used and a history of over-building these structures. Then I saw the Loose Change video and that opened my eyes in disbelief that our government could do something like this and hope to get away with it. Let's start with independent hearings to determine the cause of failure of these buildings from a scientific analysis. Let the evidence lead us from there towards criminal prosecution of the guilty.

Although I have studied electronics, and not construction I have still had many of the basic physics-courses offered by DTU. Although university level physics is not necessary to understand the very basic physical laws involved in the collapse of buildings. And in my opinion there is no doubt, whatsoever, that the official story - especially around building 7 - is invalid. When one starts to look at the evidence presented by my colleagues around the world, it becomes absolutely clear that a fresh, INDEPENDENT, investigation is necessary. Even if one subtracts the usual conspiracy-theories around such event, and even if only 10% of the evidence is valid, it is still more than enough to initiate another inquiry.

I skipped work on 9/11 to watch the whole day's coverage of the various attacks (WTC, Pentagon, Shanksville.) I absolutely remember hearing explosions, hearing people describe explosions, watching WTC 7 go down (I always knew 3 buildings went down that day.)All of the high-speed impact debris that I have examined have left significant portions of the original vehicle clearly identifiable and not entirely vaporized. The Silk Air plane hit the water above mach 1. Other identifiable debris I have handled have been from impacts from mach 2.5 to mach 5.None of the 9/11 events involved such high-speed impacts. Therefore, HUGE amounts of clearly identifiable debris should have been recovered from the World Trade Center, Pennsylvania and the Pentagon. Otherwise, the official story doesn't make sense.

I was in 6th grade at the time of the collapses of the Twin Towers (and Building 7). Ever since I saw the building fall, I knew there was more to the story. A 6th grader can even tell that the way they fell was not due to only the airplanes. Since then I have done research and have found information to favor every aspect of what AE911truth is. I am a firm believer in finding out the truth.

The evidence presented by Richard Gage and his team is compelling. It demonstrates that the 9/11 Commission, for whatever reason, did not adequately address the event of September 11, 2001, particularly with respect to the three building collapses that occurred that day. A new investigation is required.

There were 47 core support columns of extremely robust design. What happened to them? It is inconceivable to me that they just fell apart due to fire from a plane collision that occurring 70+ stories above their base. There is way too much evidence of explosives in the buildings on 911. Visual, audio and first person testimony all say that their were multiple explosions yet the theory of explosives being involved in the collapse has never been officially delved into. There is something wrong with this picture.

I worked two years for Evan Terry Associates Architects who also specializes in ADA consultation nation wide, including (before my tenure) the World Trade Center. Ironically, I was employed there on 9/11.
Part of the cover up lies in the design of buildings 1 and 2. The obvious demolition style collapse of building 7 is much harder to ascertain in buildings 1 and 2 because of their exterior structure. If the basement columns were intentionally sheared then the fall would have been masked by the vertical exterior lines of the structure moving vertically. This is an optical illusion impossible with buildings having standard windows or noticeable articulation. I've watched video of the collapse many times and it is impossible to tell if the floors pancaked, collapsed all the way down or if it had a demolition style collapse.

I worked as an architectural draughtsman while studying at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago - earning a Master of Fine Arts degree. Have worked as an architectural draughtsman and have designed and built several residential structures.
The official U.S. Government explanation for the collapse of the towers and bldg.#7 say that once the structure had been weakened by the plane crashes and fires, and the connections had failed, the buildings became the victims of the physics of gravity. By the laws of statics, gravity provides a vertical force vector pointing straight down toward the center of the earth. Whence came the horizontal force vectors which explain the ejection of steel beams and whole sections of the structural exoskeleton, weighing many tons, 300, 400, even 500 feet away from the skyscrapers???

In reference to the horrifying occurrence on 09/10/01. The collapse of the buildings seemed then as does it now seem so carefully planed that I am astounded that the majority of America has not demanded a thorougher examination of that terrible day. The way they fell seems so astoundingly simple as a planed demolition that there must be a whole lot of inside planning on this that I am ashamed of the reaction of Americans to this. Either we look deeper or we fall the way Orwell wrote in his book 1984. This is as scary to me as it might have been to the Russians over the collapse of the U.S.S.R..

Short Bio: To whom it may concern- The American people as a whole... I am a full time college student in the medical field! I have over 45 college credits, and many of those credits are for science. I have also taken critical thinking course, and other relevant course material. Additionally, I have taken, biology, chemistry, psychology, anatomy and physiology, as well as college level Algebra. I should have my associate's degree by next semester.[[tab]]I think scientifically and I question anything that doesn't make sense!
The events of September 11th 2001, don't make logical sense to me! First off, how does a 110 story building fall at free fall speed in the direction of most resistance? Logical explanation: demolition charges we in the building prior to that memorable date. I think that even the date it was planned for is part of the cover-up. Speaking from psychology stand point, 911 is a number that people do not forget. Building number 7 was an obvious demolition! It takes many hours, or days to plan and implosion and set up the demolition equipment. Could it have been done in only a few hours? No' I am not going to spend all day writing a case study on 911, as that would take me more than a day to write. What I do demand as an American is that we reopen this tragedy and bring the true criminals to justice. September 11th was no terrorist attack as far as I can see. There is much more supporting evidence to denounce that claim.. REOPEN 911, the people need to know!

I have worked side by side with hydrologists, engineers, architectural engineers, consultants, consulting firms, and other engineering staff.
After seeing the implosion, it appears as though there are bombs on the first floor and in various other areas of the building. In order for it to collapse the way it did, I would be very concerned about that, and the fact that so many other people witnessed hearing other explosions, on the lower levels.

Have also studied and hold University level qualifications in Law, Psychology (with a big research project in Attitude Change), Sociology, Crime Scene Investigation, Forensic Engineering (including building failures!), Explosives, Chemistry, Physics and lastly in IT and Communication.
In all my education, research and life experience - I have never been so determined, disciplined & focused to expose, at the very least, the most obvious and deep-rooted all-encompassing bewildering incompetence & negligence if not, the most outrageous & heinous corruption of public & democratic bodies, in the 3 main investigations of 9/11 (FEMA, 9/11 Commission, NIST) such is the motivation these events have given me. The evidence screams of controlled demolition (for all 3 towers) - yet none of these investigations would touch the subject?! Now, with the forensic evidence & clear chain of custody presented by Dr. Steven Jones (et al), it is imperative we get a full and independent scientific investigation (even though a full forensic investigation is already a legal requirement of such air crashes!) And the court cases against those suspected of treasonous involvement - no matter where or how high this leads! I believe towers WTC 1 & 2 were brought down by controlled demolition in a top-to-bottom fashion by explosives rigged in the two weeks prior to 9/11 and that tower WTC 7 was brought down by controlled demolition in a bottom-up fashion by explosives rigged on the morning & afternoon of 9/11, planted specially in floors 1-8 but also right to the top.

As part of my personal interest in bridges and earthquake-related structural failures (I was in Oakand, one mile from the Cypress Freeway collapse in the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake), I often read the typical engineering analyses done to understand the causes of such failures. I waited in vain for something definitive to be published on the WTC building collapses, and was appalled at the poor quality of the NIST report. This led me to conclude that there may be something to the claims of the 9/11 Truthers after all - which I had had a hard time believing up to that point. Richard Gage and the countless thousands of people who have been accumulating the evidence and telling the 9/11 story deserve the gratitude of the world for their efforts to get at truth. We must find out what really happened, and why.

After watching How the Towers Fell with Richard Gage at the University of Manitoba, it is clear to me that these 3 buildings were brought to the ground with explosives and not by the effects of fire. The official report failed to mention numerous key pieces of evidence that shows this and a new independent investigation should commence to reveal the true manor in which these the WTC 1, 2 and 7 collapsed.
