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.

Nobody who is told a bit about the evidence we have on 9/11 can believe the lies we're being told 24/7. The problem is, only a few people know. People are not stupid, ignorant, or selfish, they are just not told the truth.The fact that 9/11 was the ignition to a war on terror worldwide, that caused an awful lot more casualties than the target-terrorists ever caused themselves. Given the existing doubts on official reports and the pain and grief this war brought to us around the world, we are required to tell the truth to the people who want to know, who care. We all agreed on the United Nations Charter, and Human Rights Declaration. Thus it is my right to demand to be told the truth - all the people that had to die in the war that followed 9/11 and the people that died in the 9/11 attacks cannot ask for it anymore. We must ask for them. They were all Muslims, Christians, Protestants, Hindu, Buddists, Mums, Dads, Children, Lovers, Friends, all members of the Human Family. They deserve justice.

1 to 38 story buildings in DC, MD, VA, FL. Involved in construction since 1968. Majority of buidings were Office & Hotel type. Worked with Controlled Demolition on 2 projects. We supplied the drawings for them to use for their demo layout.
I have witnessed & have seen many videos of building demolitions. I have investigated buildings toppled by wind. I have investigated a fire in the core of a high-rise hotel building and one in an open air garage. It is obvious to me that the 911 towers were demolished with explosives. The fire in the twin towers was like that of cars burning in an open garage building-the fire can not become hot enough to cause enough structural members to deform to the point of failure. Building number 7 collapsed just like any other controlled demolition I have witnessed. The buildings did not topple.

Controlled demolition is the most logical explanation for the collapse of the WTC. If a fire could cause such devastation, no one would be allowed to live and work in high rises. The risk would be too high. If the official story was true, the government would be looking to blame (prosecute) the designers, architects, engineers of WTC for ineptitude.

I have always thought something was not quite right about the collapse of the two WTC towers. The way they disintegrated and created so much dust and smoke just does not make sense. And building 7 is completely bizarre. One second, a complete office building with some small fires, and then a perfect free fall collapse into its footprint.....amazing. We need to do a complete re-analysis of this event.

I watched on TV live the TT falling and thought to myself during the collapse that - this building doesn't fall this way. I had enough experience even at that time with steel moment frames to realize that they don't pancake from the top down, especially if the assumed failure (the planes heat) point in a 1/3 of the way down. The only way for a building to fall like the TT is if it was a masonry type structure and the upper columns failed first from a heavy roof load. Well, it's not. - - In my opinion IF the heat was sufficient enough to melt the steel at the planes location, the frame would have buckled and the top part of the building would have toppled over. Of course causing damage to the lower part of the structure but not a pancake collapse. Plus - both towers collapsing in the exact same symmetrical pattern - no way.! Also, what about building #7 collapsing the same way when nothing touched it!. Or where is the plane debris a the Pentagon.? - - These building were brought down by design. - - In looking at the impact over time I think the intent was to implement the HomeLand Department, the patriot act and instill a new culture of fear and control.

It is obvious that these buildings failed due to a controlled demolition. Even if steel could weaken from a jet fuel fire, it would not fail in that manner. WTC Building 7 would have not failed from a simple fire of office furniture. And if it did fail, it would not have a free fall collapse. A free fall collapse can only happen if the structural steel columns are compromised evenly and simultaneously.

I am a plant breeder who is also a practicing Muslim. My concerns about Muslims apparently being responsible for the 9/11 attacks has led me to research deeper into these infamous events.
Given some of the counter evidences that I have seen about the events of 9/11, I have substantial reservations about the official explanation given for the apparent terrorist attacks and the subsequent collapse of 3 major high rise buildings on 9/11. Of particular concern is the collapse of WTC7 that appeared to be a classic example of a planned implosive demolition, but was barely mentioned in media reports.

Remember when McVey bombed the Federal Building in Oklahoma City? The entire face of the building was ripped off from the ground to the top floor. Although the damage was severe, the building did not collapse. Wasn't there a fourth building near ground zero that was damaged? It looked like the Oklahoma building . . damaged by explosion. Building 7 collapsed, yet it was never hit. Curious that building 7 was the one which contained the FBI records? The trade center tower which was the first to collapse was the second to be hit. Maybe the first plane picked the wrong tower?

Partly because I was long a colleague of David Griffin, and I have complete confidence in his academic ability and scholarly judgment, I have followed his work closely. That three buildings be brought down in a few seconds by fire, in a way that has never happened before or since raises questions that NIST's explanations do not answer.

The crime that keeps on taking and taking from all rationality and giving and giving to 'the men behind the curtains'. Entire 'new' industries (ntm paradigms) have since been 'conveniently' erected on top of the debris pile (and vaporized corpses) at Ground Zero. The USA I was raised in did NOT die on 9/11/01. That was 'merely' the wake. Rather, IMO, the USA died on 12/12/2000 when the SCOTUS perpetrated/facilitated a military coup enabling Herr Bush and Darth Cheney to dictate/define the future as terrorism and assure the demise of the US Constitution and The (alleged) Bill of Rights

I have a PhD in structural engineering and was a supervisor in the construction of the Taipei Financial Center, otherwise known as the 101 Building.
I was completely convinced that the 'official story' was correct until I saw a Youtube video of Richard Gage. Mr. Gage's demonstration that boxes can not collapse the same way in which the WTC did made me step back and think more about the events of September 11. I went home and tried the experiment myself. It worked exactly the way that it did for Mr. Gage. Although I still do not know what really happened that day, it's clear to me that another, unbiased study is needed.

The official explanation by NIST of the collapse of the WTC 7 simply violates the laws of physics. They admit in their report that the building fell at free speed which implies the presence of explosives removing the structural material of the building, so the theory of fire as the cause of the collapse is just impossible

The biggest problem to coming to grips with 9/11 is the psychological one; understanding and coming to grips with the fact that this had to have been an inside job. Many events made me uneasy, like the announcement of who was to blame so soon after the attack, the miraculous survival of passports etc. It became clear after reading about a lot of the investigations that I had to change my whole world view. That is a really life changing transformation. It is not easy and understandable that people just can not come to terms with the fact that this event did not originate in the caves of Afghanistan

I became aware of inconsistencies in the official story of the 9-11 building collapses in September 2003, in particular WTC Building 7 and the Pentagon. Given that this event has been the underlying justification for a perpetual state of war ever since I think it essential the truth be known what really caused these buildings to collapse. In my view the evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of controlled demolition for the WTC buildings.

It is unfortunate that many people just bought the pancake theory from the official explanation and never bothered to re-examine or re-analyze the situation. The amount of fuel, the estimated temperature, the steel structure of the building... a scientist with an unbiased mind should be able to do the math.

I am a Professor of English at Tidewater Community College, and I teach courses in argumentation, critical thinking, and rhetoric. I am also scientifically literate, with a good layman's understanding of the Laws of Thermodynamics.
By what law of physics can the top sixth of a steel frame skyscraper pass right through the undamaged lower five-sixths while simultaneously disintegrating into dust, at freefall rate, without encountering any resistance? None that I know of, in this universe. Yet this is exactly what the official story of 9/11 is asking us to believe. Also, the First Law of Thermodynamics--the cornerstone of all physical science, and hence of all we know about the physical properties of matter and energy--clearly indicates that energy output cannot exceed energy input. So again I ask: How could the energy input of an airplane impact + office fires + the gravitational force from the top sixth of a building on steel columns built to support it yield the massive energy output manifested in the total, catastrophic collapse of the entire building into dust and rubble? It cannot, plain and simple, without a collateral energy input--in the form of controlled demolition charges, for which there is now abundant prima facie evidence.

The conclusion is that there is urgent need for a thorough investigation. This is not something that only concerns US citizens.

I also want to congratulate architect Richard Gage for assuming this mission with valor and the highest ethical standards.

The work of so many physicists and other experts have indicated that Building 7 could not have collapsed with the small fire that was mysteriously started in the upper floors. this appears to also be true of the twin towers. there are many other unanswered questions including Silverstein's insurance policy that was taken out shortly before the attacks. also, how Mohammed Ata's passport survived this supposedly intense heat amidst millions of tons of rubble and found within a matter of days taxes any thinking person's willingness to go along with government explanations.
