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.

From the very beginning, even while watching live on tv the whole event, I was absolutely certain that it was a false flag, being broadcasted in real time. A mixture of discernment and intuition made me not believe in ANY of what was being told at the moment, and afterwards, with this perception, many inconsistencies became more and more apparent, and all the changes and limitations imposed worldwide on our freedoms, from that day onwards, only confirmed my views.

I am a 40 year old patriot. Grandfather served in WWII. Father was a civil servant for more than 20 years. I am former military. Business owner. Concerned citizen.
It was apparent to me at 9:15 a.m. or so that this was false flag. I asked a physics professor from Russia if the physics were normal for a building collapse. She said, They couldn't.. and stopped talking to me. I am not a science major, but it was evident to me from the get go that it was controlled demolition. Pulverized cement that was combined with hardened steel removed from its place and plop, right into the foot print. Controlled demolition, right Dan? I was not a popular person for a few years. No one wanted to hear me out. Spoke out against the president, W., I did. Don't go to war. Don't believe the story the bush administration tells you about Bin Laden or Iraq. Outcast. The laws of Physics ceased to exist on 9/11. Jet fuel, and aluminum hit concrete and steel but the three of the most well engineered buildings in Manhattan free fall into their footprint. I make model airplanes out of aluminum and smash them into my refrigerator to demonstrate the absurdity. Your approach is better. In order for the buildings top sections to fall at free fall speed, the under structure would have to be removed. The demolition's planners would have to get access for extended periods of time to critical points of structural engineering with the proper materials and expertise without being discovered. Who can pull that off? Count them on my fingers and toes. Residues and structural indicators would have to be rushed away before any analysis could be verified, and let the first responders in to eventually die from toxicity. Aren't those criminal acts? But science found what evidence was left behind. Strong indications and evidence of thermite, then nano thermite, which further narrows down the suspects to one hand. You have put the science together in a convincing manner. I believe that if the science side stays strong in their mission, that the social impact will continue to grow.

I work with historic building rehabilitation and stabilization, along with designing new construction.
I have been pondering for several years how the buildings could have fallen in the manner they did, given an explosion so far from the foundations of the building, I find it hard to believe the given explanations. How does jet fuel leak down the cavities of the building all the way to the footings of these building to provide such a clean free fall. If a truck hits a house, it may fall to the ground, however portions of it will remain splintered and fragmented, however not obliterated.......

I have studied and looked at every aspect of the collapse. It has left more questions than answers. There was to many indications that more happened that day than we were told.
There are to many holes in the scientific break down involving the collapse. There is video from the U.K. that shows a reporter claiming building 7 had collapsed when you can clearly see it in the background and with a time/date stamp from the network. The residue from the explosive called Thermite found in the dust at the Trade Center site should be enough reason to open a new and independent investigation alone. That and the fact that the 9/11 commission was hand picked by the administration. Also I would like to see an inquiry into the strange construction on vacant floors in the Trade Centers prior to 9/11.

I am concerned that our nation seems content to live with a lie, a lie that has led to untold misery. We must re-investigate, and learn the truth about the events of 9/11.
They say that on that sunlit New York day The towers came down as fast as falling free. But buildings can't be made to fall that way, They never have in all of history. They say that fires made the metal soft And that in turn began the quick collapse. But fuel from jets can never burn that hot And buildings never turn to dust so fast. The explanation told us was a lie. The cover-up is further proof of crime, And yet we cannot turn away and sigh And let this lie define our life and time. We have to jar awake a sleeping nation, And learn the truth from new investigation!

Currently six years with the DOD as an IT Specialist.
While on active duty I never once allowed myself to consider any of the information some people were talking about; I believe it was that I didn't want that type of distraction taking away my energy in performing my assigned tasks. However, something happened to me after I retired and began working again as a 'civilian'. Over the last year, I've spent literally hundreds of hours reading, reading and reading, along with viewing excellent and fact-based documentaries on not just 9/11, but every major event in my lifetime. It has been an incredible awakening for me to realize that my own government has conducted such mass global manipulation, death and war, supposedly in the name of freedom and democracy. The more the people ask about 9/11, the less the media report it. For example, there is no reason for molten steel burning weeks afterward. There is no reason all three simply evaporated during descent. Why was all power cut off the weekend (maybe two weekends) prior to 9/11. Whoever planted the explosives had access to every single room in that building since all cameras and motion sensors were disabled. Building 7 could not have fallen on its own. No way. Pull it. But the biggest farce is the failure of the Pres and VP to provide testimony separately and under oath to the 9/11 commission.

It's about connecting the dots to the truth and telling the greatest story Never told.
I've been doing my own research and have found 9/11 to be an orchestrated event by the powers that be. There were also reports from whistleblowers who said that in the weeks prior to the collapse of the Twin Towers there were boxes removed from the WTC Bldg. 7 and loaded onto trucks and taken to the dock and loaded onto boats to be taken out of the country. The sources have provided their opinions and statements on what was in those boxes, but the question begs to be asked of the people behind this treachery.

After watching numerous clips about what caused the collapse of the WTC buildings, I am convinced that those buildings did not come down as a result of two aircraft crashing into them. What I would like to know is who was involved in making this horrific event happen. I would also like to know what actually hit the Pentagon - why only a 65 foot gap when the wing span of a commercial airline exceeds one hundred feet and why was there no wreckage of the commercial aircraft that crashed in Pennsylvania? Only a hole in the ground and small aircraft fragments.

The most important issue confronting the United States citizen is the courage to demand the Truth, and not to be satisfied until an independent, objective, through and complete investigation is conducted into the collapse of the Twin Towers as well as Building#7, and also the attack on the Pentagon, and the overall events of the entire day on 9/11. The investigating committee must be well funded with subpoena powers. No one is above these subpoena powers, and Contempt charges must be lodged against anyone not obeying the subpoena. The hearings should be broadcast across the country, around the world every day until they are concluded. The findings will be made public and law enforcement will be expected to continue any further investigation if necessary and to indict anyone suspected of being involved in this national tragedy. The government explanation of the events that day are fantastic and unbelievable. The major media, free press has for the most part disgraced itself. Buildings don't collapse at free fall speeds unless the bottom structure is blown out. Nanothermite is not a natural ingredient found in Manhattan soil. Airplane fuel does not melt steel. Steel structured buildings do not fall from fires. Paper passports do not fair better than steel and concrete. Concrete does not become a powder from collapsing. Buildings do not collapse on their own.

I graduated from Indiana University with a degree in Public Affairs - concentration in Criminal Justice. I own a loss prevention consultation business and am a licensed investigator in Indiana.
In my opinion, the official investigations of the causes of the WTC collapses were not conducted in accordance with established, standardized methodology. These investigations did not actually 'conclude' anything regarding the specific circumstances and causes of the collapses; the point of conducting the investigations in the first place. The investigations did not accomplish what they were designed to accomplish. As a professional investigator with three decades of experience, I immediately began to question why these investigations were so poorly executed. I am not an engineer or an architect, but I do know what constitutes a thorough, comprehensive, professionally conducted investigation. What the government refers to as its investigations do not meet that bar and I am compelled to ask why.

I am a city and regional planning major at Ohio State University Knowlton School of Architecture. I have researched and published professional journals in the field. I research many diverse topics surrounding architecture and city planning. I have always found the 9/11 event very questionable and have a tremendous amount of curiosity about the investigation, motif, and accountable person(s).
I believe the events leading up to, during, and after 9/11 are irrefutably coordinated by an entity far more powerful than a Middle Eastern gang. When thinking of my personal opinion and feelings about the events and where we are now because of the tremendous influence 9/11 had, I feel angry, saddened, fearful that our country has lost its identity, but also I recognize an opportunity. I believe this has awakened a lot of people who were previously sleeping. Without a doubt more than a majority or at least a large population remain asleep, but those of us who do not simply believe what we are told, and what we see from the lens of a camera, but ask questions and search for the truth, are inspiring others.

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.

While it may be an emotional journey to undertake, Dennis Kucinich is right, we need to revisit the day of September 11, 2001. There is a huge veil of secrecy concerning the events of that day. Regardless of what you may have heard about what happened on that day, there remain many pertinent questions that need answers. Even with all of the events that are happening around the world today, I cannot think of a more pertinent issue that needs the focus of our attention... to discover the real answer to this one question: What actually caused the collapse of World Trade Center building number 7? There are many severe and meticulously documented anomalies concerning what happened to this building. The real answers to what happened to this building on that day are such forbidden fruit that politicians are afraid to investigate. This is the Achilles heal of the whole 9/11 controversy. Almost anyone who looks at even just the most evident anomalies, will seriously question the official answers concerning that building's collapse. Please familiarize yourself with at least the most evident anomalies of the collapse of building 7. This is meticulously documented actual hard evidence. If you take a minute to review this material, you will realize that for yourself. The question remains: What actually caused the collapse of World Trade Center building number 7?

Author of THE 9/11 CRUSADE - A FACT BASED NOVEL. Researched the ongoing debate concerning obvious problems with conclusions of the Report of the 9/11 Commission. Realizing the vast majority of Americans were ignorant of the debate, I wrote the novel in hopes that through dialogue between the characters, problems with the official explanation could be analyzed and summarized in an easily understood presentation. The 7 pages of reference notes at the end of novel are duplicated on the website with direct links to referenced websites.
FROM THE NOVEL: Sid was incredulous. 'Marty, how do they explain that the massive inner columns just disappeared. I mean, come on, if the trusses and girders had failed, allowing the floors to fall, those central column beams would have been left standing. You'd have these skeletal remains still standing. I can't believe anyone would believe this story. 'Are they giving the same reason for both towers collapsing? I mean come on. The first tower hit might, and I don't really believe it, but might be able to collapse this way. But the second tower hit, the first to fall, probably had little damage to the central core. Hell most of the fuel from that aircraft seemed to fly out the side of the building based upon that incredible fireball. The second plane only caught the corner of the outer wall. I doubt there was any real damage done to most of the core. Certainly not enough to, in any way, conform to that story of pancaking floors.' Marty agreed, 'Exactly. Now you understand the problem.'

Tower 5 burned and burned and burned, never fell. Tower 7 hardly burned at all, and fell after Silverstein admittedly said Pull it and 20 minutes AFTER the BBC reported it. What happened at the other locations gets so much attention, but there is enough evidence in these 2 unheard of buildings to warrant ANY investigation into their collapse. After all, they are not mentioned in the official report, so they have not been officially investigated, right?

I doubted the veracity of the WH propaganda from the first hours, based on Pres Bush reaction and Guiliani's advice that we should go shopping. I watched as CNN showed perfect Pentagon lawn, as BBC announced that #7 had fallen, as it stood clearly in background.

I witnessed the demolition collapse. The collapse and statements from the rescue workers confirmed molten steel which cannot occur from jet fuel heat but does occur from incendiary type demolition explosives. This and the steel framed structure failure requires better explanation than the official version. Even the monument girder in Jersey City shows evidence of extreme heat (heat compatible with incendiary type demolition explosives). There are too many unanswered questions.

I have doubts about the media cover up of 9/11 and I don't think it was orchestrated by the people who are being blamed. Most people I speak to haven't even heard about the collapse of Building 7. There are too many facts and unanswered questions to put in this short paragraph, but safe to say I think it is a total sham how the American government has handled this.

The advent of 9/11 and the tragedy surrounding the events are the singular greatest lie and fraud ever perpetuated. I recall working as a broker in the WTC in the mid 90's after the '93 bombing. The fact was already established after the bombing investigation that the buildings were originally built and inundated with asbestos protective coating, recognized as dangerous hazardous material even then. All the beam structures were coated in this covering and removal would have taken many years and billions($) in losses due to the closed buildings. The WTC towers and adjoining buildings were essentially condemned for the hazardous asbestos content, now killing the first responders (although squelched by the media). When I watched the buildings fall on 9/11, no mention was made of the dynamic stabilization dampers originally built as an afterthought on the upper levels of the building, consisting of concrete and steel and weighing 400,000lbs each. The force of these huge weights was essential to the planned and carefully controlled 'footprint' demolition. The 9/11 wives were paid for their silence and contractually obligated to never ask questions. Beverly Eckert, leader of the 9/11 wives group, publicly questioned the official report for its lies and inaccuracies, never took the pay-off. Eckert sued the government and consistently lobbied for a legitimate investigative commission. She died suspiciously in a very suspect plane crash, immediately after personally meeting with Obama and cabinet members and disclosing her plans to take her concerns and inside knowledge of the fraud to the public and the media.

I am a claims officer and I deal with predominantly personal injury claims. I understand how claims are made as well as having family members who have worked as claims loss adjusters on behalf of insurance companies in the building claims sector here in the UK.
After reviewing countless pieces of evidence and reading the official 9/11 Commission Report, I am not convinced that the Twin Towers and WTC 7 were brought down by jet planes and office fires. There needs to be a full inquiry as to how these buildings collapsed at near free fall speed, even at the risk of finding out that the official version is incorrect and the repercussions which it may entail. The truth is likely to be uncomfortable, but American citizens and the world population need to know.

Trust your own eyes. If you aren't outraged, you aren't paying attention. We must honor those that died that day with a new investigation.

I am not an architect or engineer, but a business analyst for more than 10 years. This work developed my skills to uncover gaps in information that are needed in order to make informed business decisions.
Although almost anyone can see holes in the official story, my training and experience as a business analyst has helped me identify areas that need further investigation. My top 3 questions I consider a new investigation will help answer are: 1. What was the origin and cause of the molten metal at the WTC buildings' rubble pile? 2. Why didn't the Pentagon surveillance video have any frames to help identify and confirm the aircraft crashing into it? 3. Why the collapse of the WTC7 building was not included in the 9/11 Commission Report?

It is time we stop living in an emperor's new clothes world and hold those accountable for an event that fraudulently is the basis for oppressive and dangerous policies that will affect children for many generations.

I served as a junior student apprenticeship with HW Belfast (where the Titanic was built!) At lunch time I sometimes climbed up the old rusting gantries to get a good view of Belfast harbor and to take photographs of the CANBERRA at its fitting-out location. I studied Naval Architecture at the Belfast Technical college and at Poplar Technical College London, England. I worked for one year as a petrochemical piping draughtsman for Procon Great Britain Ltd, an American Company. I joined a small shipyard, on the river Thames, as Assistant to the Yard Manage for W.R. Cunis Limited, producing design drawings and inspection of subbed out work, welding inspection, tolerance inspection, vessel damage inspection, cost estimating, rudder calculations etc. I emigrated to Canada via the EMPRESS OF CANADA JULY 1967 to commence work in BC with Robert Allen LTD. Naval Architect. I worked for the Federal Government for approximately thirteen (13) years as a Marine inspector (TI7) for Transport Canada I have witnessed several vessel fires. One of the fires was on a steel hulled old - retiring- BC Ferry, which, in association with a Lloyds' Surveyor, we verified it safe to travel to Mexico from Vancouver BC. I inspected the damage for Transport Canada. The fire commenced from a welders spark. The spark ignited a large pile of donated clothing that was situated under a hydraulic hose line from a header tank. The header-tank then dumped the oil on the burning clothing. The paint was burned off the bulkhead and part of the deck buckled some-what. Outboard of the damaged area the deck was undamaged and restricted the expansion of the steel. The heated steel had no choice but to buckle, as it was being held captive by the intact cold steel. The fire did not burn holes in the deck or bulkhead!
I live in Canada and feel that if the local Loggers were asked to climb up all trees and cut off each tree at 10 feet intervals commencing at the top, to satisfy a request for 10 ft length of logs, that they would tell the supervisor to go and take a hike! Similarly no TERRORIST would waste, (1.) Time. (2.) Waste Cutting Charges; to bring a tower such as WTC towers #1, #2, #3 vertically down, almost, into its own foot print. To cause maximum damage a terrorist would copy the usual method of logging, i.e. take out the equivalent to a wedge shape out of the bottom of the towers, core steel members, causing them to fall almost intact sideways in the direction that would cause them to strike other buildings and block roads. The presence of Thermite and Nano-thermite has been found in the WTC (World Trade Center) dust. Therefore, explosive and thermal cutting charges were used to bring down the WTC. From high school physics, one may remember the simple demonstration of a transparent glass tube, about six (6) feet long, sealed at each end by a small circular piece of glass. The tube, being about two and a half inches in diameter, and containing three objects, a small coin, a feather, and a small lead ball. The question put to the students being, If I hold this tube vertically so that the feather, lead ball and coin are resting on the bottom and suddenly invert the tube by rotating the tube in such a manner that the three objects remain at the end, by centrifugal force, and stop with the objects in the tube in a vertical upright position, which object will fall and hit the bottom first? Most students will say that the lead ball would hit the bottom first (reason lead is heavy, very dense, has a lot of mass for its size). What actually takes place is that all three objects, feather, coin, and lead ball, strike the bottom end of the tube at the same time. The students are amazed! The teacher then explains that he had omitted to tell them that the air had been removed from the tube Because of lack of air inside the tube (a vacuum having been applied to the inside of the tube) all objects fall at the same speed due to Earths gravity. The demonstration would usually be followed by a story of Sir Isaac Newton and the apple plus more details on gravity. From the available videos of all three WTC towers they fell at near free fall speed i.e. To explain free fall, if you jumped off say tower #7, without a parachute, at the same time as the cutting charges were set off, you would hit the ground at the same time as the top of the tower! 6.5 seconds being the approximate near free fall time. In Dr. Steven Jones paper, there is a photograph of the top of, from memory, WTC tower #2, rotating sideways. Have you ever seen a tree being cut down, falling with rotation sideways? Does the tree suddenly break up into say two foot sections as it rotates? Why then would the top of WCT tower#2 not continue to rotate in one piece until clear of the lower section? You may look at the videos on the internet or youtube and see what took place. Note: ''With the top section of the building removed, loosely hinged, a partial downward force would be applied to one edge of the lower portion of WTC #2. The only fire in the building was caused by an aircraft and by this time all of the fuel had burned up. There was no fire in the lower portion of the building so, with the top of the building removed, the core steel structure would have experienced a reduced load and would not have collapsed without the use of demolition cutting charges. I have attempted to keep my analysis super simple so that your young children can understand what has been written.

My name is Brandon Cox, I have been a 9/11 truther since September 11th 2001. Two Cox's were killed in New York on that day. I was angry about the whole event, however since two Cox's were in fact murdered it made me....involved.
I know for a fact that 9/11 was an inside job, and everyone involved is going too jail.

Grandmother and very concerned about US lies about 9/11. This needs to be shared with everyone who is believing the lies we are being told.
Full of baloney. There were definitely explosives in those buildings. The cover-ups for 9/11 are sickening and something needs to be done about it.

I am a mother, writer, scientist and academic. I write an alternative political blog. My blog also has a Twitter account that can be accessed through the Wordpress account. Since college, I worked in the health care and construction industries, before contracting cancer and being placed on disability. Now I dedicate myself, full time, to Liberty activism.
With my working knowledge of physics, I know a steel structure, namely Bldg 7, cannot fall at free fall or close to free fall speed, indicating no resistance, without the use of explosives in a controlled demolition. Also, I have seen video of molton steel dripping from Bldg's 1 and 2 which indicates to me the use of thermite or even nano-thermite, military grade. Also, the angle of the steel columns indicate 'cutting' which occurs with controlled demolition and thermite. Also, the owner of Bldg 7, I believe within a week of the demolition, bought insurance on the building, and was seen on TV explaining there was a decision to pull the building. There is no way the official 9/11 Commission report is correct in it's findings, when they did not even use the scientific method in their research and look at this simple evidence.
