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 am a 9/11 Surviving Victim that was inside both Towers while both planes were inside above me. I lived it up close including the massive thunderous percussion explosions inside the Towers and beneath the street level floor where the Galleria Mall existed with stores like Victoria Secret, J. Crew, COACH, Biddle & Banks Jewelry & banks like Chase. I was on the South side of Tower II, the South Tower standing in front of the Lobby doors at street level & watched the 2nd plane come in from the NY Harbor & fly in right above me into the tower above me as I watched with explosion underneath my feet as the plane entered the building with explosions also, above me blowing me back.

BS Computer Information Science, College of Engineering, Ohio State University, 1973. I took courses in civil, industrial, and electrical engineering in addition to computer science.
It is blatantly obvious that all three buildings were brought down by controlled demolition. The buildings were structurally sound and there wasn't any propellant present to create enough heat to melt steel except those propellants added by the people that planted the explosive charges. The jet fuel would have burned off pretty quickly and the subsequent building fire would have been controlled by NYFD. No similar building has ever collapsed due to fire. There is also no proof that the hijacked planes were the ones that flew into the buildings.

I really have no structural experience other than taking structural engineering at NMSU. My experience has been with highways and municipal design.
The official story is that the buildings, weakened by fire, and falling under their own wight, pancaked down. The collapse happened in less than 10 seconds, which is about the time for a free falling object from that height to hit the ground. Resistance of building joints at each floor would have slowed the fall and possibly caused a much less even descent, perhaps even toppling. Pancaking would have left much more evidence. Explosives would have removed all evidence leaving only dust.

"The attacks on NYC and the buildings of the WTC in 2001 were destructive and deadly. The NIST Report and many of the ""official"" reports that have been broadcast to the public are incorrect and misleading about the causes of collapse. The scientific method has been grossly ignored, and much of the evidence of the truth has been hidden from the general public and the Professional community. These three Structural Steel Buildings clearly did not collapse due to fire from the fuel and combustibles within the building, as the NIST report claims. After reviewing Structural Analysis from Engineers and the evidence provided with expert testimony of many scientist and building professionals, I believe there is overwhelming cause to further investigate and reveal the full truth for future generations of Americans and the world. When the physics and the science is so contrary to the official narrative, correction is absolutely necessary."

I know what is happening on this planet and the original source of that insanity, so sad to say 9-11 was no surprise to me. I've worked in several fields.
It is and always has been an engineering impossibility for an airplane to take down a steel high rise building. These were designed to be hit by a 707 airliner which was heavier than the planes that hit the buildings. The buildings collapsed in a straight line which would occur in a planned explosive demolition. Also unless the basements were blown up first the pile of debris would have to have been 150 feet high minimum and would have been scattered over a large radius. Many must have been threatened to keep quiet about this and of course the news media is now 99% slaves to the powers that be. I'm a pilot and I assure you the procedures to track the errant aircraft were ignored and obfuscated. What really gets to me is that the shadow government is doing anything they want because they think they can enforce it on all without any consequences. 9-11 was exactly the same strategy done by Hitler with the Reichstag fire, only much worse as it more damaging and is pointing to the mass suicide of mankind. Wake up and show a little guts you representatives who have 90% become a bunch of Sycophants. Your integrity is worth MORE than even your life, or didn't you study out founding fathers philosophy in school ???????

I provided general civil engineering, construction management, plan review, and engineering for small structures in the 1980's and early 1990's.
I had a college professor in structures who once said, and I paraphrase, Structures don't collapse from the mistakes that engineers design for....there are enough factors of safety to compensate for that...they collapse from what engineers completely miss designing for. - - - - When the towers collapsed, I was shocked and surprised, but attributed the collapse to the idea that...well...the engineers wouldn't have taken into account a large plane hitting them. Years later I discovered that they were indeed designed for a 707 hitting them. That got me thinking! - - Having spent many agonizing hours designing the structure for a church, I felt certain that the engineers of the towers would have overdesigned their structure to, if nothing else, still be standing until the last little old lady in a wheel chair escaped, unharmed. - - - - Call it gut feeling, with some practical engineering experience, but the idea of the tower collapses and especially the building 7 collapse being caused mainly by fires are suspect. The true cause or causes of these total failures certainly need to be re-investigated.

I always felt doubt about the official story and was uncomfortable taking a strong position on the issue in public. - - - - I always knew that 9/11 was premeditated and likely foreknown by neoconservative elements of our government and other rouge entities. Likely even Israel. - - - - After listening to Mr. Gage's presentation and looking further into the evidence however I am convinced there is no way any of these buildings could have fallen short of a controlled demolition. The evidence is overwhelming. I no longer have any doubt. I am also proud to be part of an industry which has come out on the side of truth despite the consequences. Kudos to Richard Gage for being one of the best of us. - - - - I feel a detailed, public investigation with teeth needs to be made here and the perpetrators of crimes brought to justice.

Shortly after the collapse, a friend, who had just returned to Chicago from New York, indicated that he saw a fighter jet parked on the docks the night before the collapse. This set in motion questions in my mind and turned me into a skeptic witness of televised news reports and of stated presidential agendas.

There may be a case for the collapse of the twin towers due to the strike of large scale commercial planes into the fabric of the building structure, although small, but there is absolutely no possibility that building 7 collapsed in the manner it did without help. The building was not hit by a plane and suffered relevantly minor damage from fire. Something else transpired at building 7. That opens Pandora's box. What happened, and why does the 911 commission report ignore that building collapse in totality. What happened in totality that day. What about the drills being performed by Northcom at the exact same time? What hit the Pentagon, it wasn't a commercial plane! I have four children, and all that I could ever ask for, or demand for, is the truth.

My first reaction to watching the first Tower fall on live television was that the building was imploded. Nothing that I have seen or read since has changed that opinion. The official investigation ignored most of the physical evidence. The official investigation also ignored the Saudi and Chinese connections to the event. An independent investigation looking at all of the evidence needs to be conducted to bring those individuals responsible to justice. The implications of all this are horrible. The results of ignoring it are even more horrible.

The toxicity at ground zero was far greater than anyone warned then .Many 1st responders have died ,or are very sick .It seems only highly molten metal and finely pulverized concrete could lead to such toxic medical problems .This could not have happened in a physical only collapse , the so called government pancake theory .

This event defied the laws of science. The evidence was removed and sent to China before a thorough forensic investigation could be conducted. Three buildings free fell in their footprints. Turbines found at the crash sites do not match the aircraft that reportedly hit the buildings. Four inch thick beams were bent without any cracking. Many of the beams sheared off in a straight diagonal line as if they had been cut or burned. The telltale puffs of smoke as the buildings fell mirrors controlled demolitions. Finally, the compression of three floors into a solid mass, three feet thick indicates tremendous heat.

Although I am not an expert in demolition, there is no doubt in my mind that the upper portion of the WTC tower(s) that apparently collapsed by fire could not bring down -along a perfect vertical axis- the other remaining officially undamaged structure of the tower(s) at free fall speed causing total and even destruction (pulverization) of the building . This is pure physics. As a technician I do not accept the 'pancake-fall' official version which utterly contradicts the logic of physics. The rest of the evidence provided by ae911truth.org leaves no doubt whatsoever that the cause of WTC's and building 7's fall was a controlled demolition. We all still suffer the consequences of this brutal event. As a free democrat European citizen I urge the American government to clarify all technical questions raised both by ae91truth.org and world911truth.org and I urge the (so called) Free Press to play an active roll on this issue.

First, as a Chemist who has worked in Petroleum Refineries, I can Testify that Jet-Fuel made from the Glycol Distillates in a Cat-Cracker do NOT burn hot enough to melt the steel that was obliterated in the 911 incident. Further, the only thing that can do that and cut the steel girders clean across angles as seen in the aftermath photos is a form of Thermite Incendiary. I believe that a 'basement' nuclear type explosive may have been in this as to Building 6 and the crater left behind below sea level. This is possible as evidenced by the University Project of John Aristotle Phillips in the 1970's where he used Declassified Manhattan Project papers to create a prototype Nuclear device the size of a small beach ball. He was forced to sign the US Secrecy Act and was not aware his Professor was a US Government operative when he turned in his project at Princeton University then. He wrote a book on this subject also. This was clearly controlled demolition and I have seen also firsthand how Thermite operates and have even made it. I can also Testify that controlled demolition was used at the Oklahoma City bombing in the 90's and a common C4 type of ammonium-nitrate explosive could not do that damage. Author/Researcher Christopher Bollyn has been explicit in the raw mechanics of the 911 incident and the cover-ups and the ties in those events that are clear manifestations of the Hegelian Dialectic in their execution.

I am familiar with all sorts of materials testing - compressive and tensile strength, microscopy, spectroscopy, etc. My undergraduate program especially focused on the chemistry of materials.
I recently re-discovered an interest in the phenomenon known as creep - how a material such as steel under an applied load may fail at temperatures far below melting. I recall a colleague saying 'creep is what caused the buildings to collapse'. Before watching the movie at this website, my biggest concern was how could creep cause such a symmetric collapse? I would expect instead to see the buildings fold at the weakest point(s), instead of falling straight down at nearly free-fall speed. But it is hard to imagine how local heating combined with coincidental insulation failure could cause the necessary uniformity of temperature along the massive steel columns. I enjoyed seeing analysis of the buildings' design, especially the heat sink near the base and other fire-safety measures.

To all whose responsibility it was to investigate 9/11 collapses thoroughly: review it again or we will relive it again. Don't be naive and think that those who got away with it won't use their power and terror again. Maybe not in your lifetime--maybe just in your kids or grand kids--not important though, right?

I have built houses in 3 countries and been part of high rise condo buildings and we in the field know that if a plane hit a condo, it wouldn't fall like that. And these are made out of reinforced concrete, some steel (in comparison) and is built in a developing country (so not as advanced)!!

Within 20 minutes of hearing on the radio that the first plane had hit the first building and as they were describing the approach to the Pentagon, I knew that what we were witnessing was not as it seemed. The following information as it came in did not make sense either. Over days and weeks, I found that many others felt the same way. Early on I joined a 9/11 group and read as much information as I could find. In flying to LA about a week after 9/11, I chatted with a man for hours whose best friend, was an architect who had worked on the World Trade Center who had told him the story just couldn't be as officially stated. I found this website listed in a Russian publication about an hour ago. A few days before that I watched the stunning movie, '9/11 Press for Truth,' http://tinyurl.com/kq8s6f. Then the next day I read the article about the lead person on the Government Commission on 9/11, an attorney, who was the primary writer of the Report, confessed that it was mostly lies and deceit. Currently, there seems to be a real swell of new interest.

As a 17-year veteran in the commercial real estate industry, specifically Sr./General Manager for office high-rise buildings, I have always been passionate about the properties that I represent and as such, I work closely on a day to day basis with all those who make it possible to [collectively] run a tight ship. I am lucky to have had the opportunity to work in the trenches with my team, rather than hide in the office behind reports computer. To be able to actively & extensively work within the various fields that are inherent to the development and operation of office buildings (i.e. engineering, general construction, development /re-development, architecture, fire-life-safety, security, local city & state agencies fire, and police agencies -- just to name a few), is to understand the entire operation on both a micro and a macro level. Much like horse & rider, an intimate relationship emerges between Manager & Building.
On September 10th, 2001, I resigned from my position with a prominent Real Estate firm in the Los Angeles area. The next morning I was devastated to see the events unfolding in New York. It took two months for me to secure a new position in management. The industry was at a standstill; fear had taken over and hesitation plagued building owners. I returned to work and there began my discussions with my fellow colleagues in the industry. As time went on, my questions began to increase -- maybe it was intuition at that point, but something inside said this didn't make sense. My driving concern was two fold: 1) our country appeared to be under attack; 2) the method of attack involved office buildings. I have always personified office buildings -- the people give it life (the tenants, the building staff, the visitors, etc.). It has always been my work ethic to [before all else] ensure a safe environment for everyone's sake. The building becomes your home, and the people in it become your family. The staff become sisters, brothers, children, aunts, uncles. You work hard, together, and support each other. When I heard how many people lost their lives that day including a large number of building personnel (i.e. janitorial), I became overwhelmed and nearly obsessed with NEEDING TO UNDERSTAND... I asked myself and my colleagues how such an event could have happened, and why the absence of procedural emergency evacuation. I have evacuated my buildings on minor level threats -- maybe that was excessive on my part but my ethic has always been safety first. I assure you that, if at any time in my career there happened to be an airplane occupying any part of a building i was responsible for, evacuation would be the first order. I do not care if it's inconvenient for tenants - my attitude: board meetings can wait -- SAFETY FIRST. The more me and my colleagues (which consisted of other managers, VPs, Chief engineers, project managers, security personnel, developers, architects, GCs, demo-crews, FLS installers, members of LAPD & LAFD, and the list goes on.....) reviewed the plethora of footage of the actual collapse the more we concluded something was wrong with the picture. That was when my I became 100% obsessed with my research. I focused on the structural design aspect of the towers, and that led me to believe that complete pancaking was likely a direct result of controlled demolition, not jet fuel. I have raised the question of the [reportedly] unusual building operations in the weeks leading up to 9/11 - for example the timing of Reg. 4 emergency evacuation drill, incomplete contractor /vendor signature logs during the elevator mod project -- a front project to allow hoist-way access to controlled demolition crew(s). Truth and Understanding, I hope, will come to us by legal process. Thank you for this.

I have studied the available evidence carefully and it is obvious to me that the buildings did not collapse simply because of fire. Even without all the technical evidence, including evidence of thermite, etc. common sense tells anyone viewing videos of the collapses with an open mind that explosives were used. The massive amounts of ejecta and dust cannot be explained otherwise.

Simply, I want to know the truth. I taught in the Los Angeles Public School System for 36 years.
I thought I saw demolitions. I still think I saw demolitions. I want to know who was responsible for allowing planes to fly into the towers and then for demolishing the towers and building #7.

According to the Stefan-Boltzmann Law and common sense, red, yellow or even blue flames are not hot enough to melt steel. It takes a white flame with forced oxygen as in a blast furnace or an oxy-acetyline torch or a thermite bomb to weld train wheels to the track as every Chem 1 student at Harvard knows. Try to melt a steel pan on a gas stove. s = 1/2 g t(square). If t is ten seconds, s is 1600 feet. Those buildings fell like Niagra Falls water as any student of Gallilei Gallileo can verify for himself. One needs to study the Gunpowder Plot, the Popish Plot, the Maine. the Lusitania, the Purloined Necklace. and The REICHSTAG FIRE, not physics to understand this miraculous event.

I own a copy of your video , 9/11 Blueprint for truth and have found it an excellent presentation of the facts of what happened to the 3 WTC buildings . The inescapable conclusion that any honest person would come to is that the official Govt. investigation is a fraud and a cover up and an honest and comprehensive investigation must be demanded by the American people. This can only be called for after the public is shown the true facts and not the disinformation that is offered by the controlled media. Your film will deliver those facts.

Work as an application scientist in vibrational spectroscopy, specifically spectroscopic determinations of: forensic analysis, chemometrics, pharmaceutical, trace explosive analysis, mixture analysis, fuel property predictions, crystallinity, as well as instrument calibration related to above. Other work I have performed (coincidentally around the time of the9/11 attacks) used Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) in a support role for the US Coast Guard R&D Center in Groton, CT ( a three hour drive from ground zero) in the determination of trace quantities (nanogram) of drugs and explosives. On 9/08/01 I was sent to USMC Camp LeJeune, NC, making any attempt to use our equipment immediately following the collapse impossible.
The video footage of the three WTC buildings, as well as the Pentagon and Flight 93 wreckage, offers clear evidence that does not appear to have factored greatly into the official story, especially WTC building 7. The lack of significant analytical forensic evidence in the 9/11 commission report leads me to believe that it was inadequate, and a new, congressionally appointed committee should be established.

I have been a pastor for more than 50 years having started as a teenager in rural churches. I went to school to CST and was two years behind David Ray Griffin, I know both his intellectual greatness and his commitment to truth and honesty as well as his genuine patriotism. I have served churches in Hawaii and California and worked at UCLA in the Counseling Center. I was a District Superintendent in the United Methodist Church and currently I am serving both a church and as National Chaplain for PPFA.
I am one of the earlier Truthers having read D. R. Griffin's The New Pearl Harbor and being convinced by his disturbing questions to ask for a thorough investigation. Through a friend of Lee Hamilton (Sister Pat Kromer) I connected with him and took 6 copies of TNPH to him at the Reagan Building in DC as the 9/11 Commission was getting started. Hamilton denied knowing anything about Griffin's work during a TV interview and that was the most convincing reason for me to suspect a coverup.

When witnessing the towers collapse on September 11, I thought they looked like a controlled demolition at the time. Like most people, I went on to trust the official experts and their explanations. Now after my own research and seeing Building 7 fall I can trust my initial gut feeling - this is a controlled demolition not a building collapse. The work of Richard Gage and Professor Steven Jones and others has provided scientific evidence to warrant a new, independent investigation into these building collapses and the events of the day.
