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.

My questions focus on #7 WTC. There can be no doubt that it was a controlled demolition. The only question is why was it done on that day. And if there were any doubts, why can't the circumstances be more fully examined? - - A B-25 bomber flew directly into the Empire State Building on a Saturday, and the building was open for business the following Monday, with the exception of the most adversely affected areas near the top. - - Different type of aircraft - different type of building. But it is difficult to reconcile that instance with what happened to 7WTC on 9/11.

BS Engineering University of Oklahoma, MBA Harvard University, MS and PhD Political Economy University of Texas at Dallas, with dissertation in financial economics entitled 'Capital Market Efficiency of Firms Financing Research and Development'. The dissertation, in Chapter 4 'Asset Pricing Circularity', debunked the single-equation simultaneity in the prominent Three-Factor Model for stock-portfolio pricing, in order to demonstrate a newly discovered, scientific, stock-portfolio pricing anomaly.
Western scientific method requires selecting the most parsimonious hypothesis that fits all the facts, not selecting the facts that fit a preconceived hypothesis. According to scientific methodology, based on the evidence available in 2013, all three of the World Trade Center buildings, North Tower, South Tower and WTC7, were destroyed as a result of controlled demolition. Explaining how is a straightforward application of science and engineering, but explaining why may have to be explained by other learned disciplines such as political science, economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology and philosophy.

There are numerous unexplained phenomena that lead me to reject the official conspiracy theory advanced by the government. Some of the most compelling are the explosive projections observed from well below the collapse zone and the discovery of molten metal during the collapse and in the debris. Any theory that ignores these important pieces of data will always be viewed as illegitimate by any serious investigator.

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.

The scientific evidence is overwhelming that the events of 9/11 involved participation by the Bush Administration...at the very least treason, at the most murder. We need an independent investigation to expose the lies and bring the real criminals to justice. We need the mainstream media to stop supporting policies that lead our nation to war (which in turn feed their own coiffers) and investigate the news, reporting the real facts.

I knew from at least Sept. 12, 2001 that the 9/11 events were a false-flag operation due to the literally impossible rapidity and thoroughness with which the government's full, profusely-illustrated story of what had happened was publicly released. All subsequently available information since has completely verified my the judgment I made about the bottom-line responsibility and authorship of the attacks that day.

If planes brought down the two Twin Towers buildings, then why are they they only two buildings in the entire history of the world to be brought down by planes? Why did they fall in on themselves and not just burn at the top, as one would expect from other, similar crashes? Why did the third Tower fall? Why were explosions heard by many eye-witnesses prior to the collapse of the buildings?

After obtaining a Diploma of Agriculture (Longerenong, Victoria) I spent my early years as an employee, then contractor, in Queensland. I obtained a block of virgin bush in Western Australia which I cleared and developed as a sheep and grain farm. With that accomplished I moved to Perth and enrolled at the University of Western Australia. On graduating I worked as a research officer for the Department of Agriculture for a number of years then embarked on a project manufacturing solar tracking devices based on a patented concept and finally moved to consulting.
It is my belief that it is important for those who dispute the official explanation for the WTC collapses to stick rigidly to the evidence which stands up to scientific scrutiny. I have now written and co-authored a number of papers examining various aspects of the collapses (Journal of 9/11 Studies). All observations are in accord with controlled demolition but not with fire and impact damage. The NIST report falls far short of a proper scientific study.

If the plot of the 911 had existed as you think, the Democrats grasp the first time on such a case. Upon arrival in power, this would be the end of Republicans forever, and execution for high treason to all those involved in the case. You will find no secret agents sanity for embarking on a murderous rampage against his fellow Americans, when he knows pertinent that those who ask him to do that, probable men will be gone in the next election, and that they will no longer cover it. And that's not to mention the risk it so well before the next change of government.

It seems incredible to me that anyone can believe that these collapses of buildings into their own footprints at near free fall speed can be attributed to the forces of gravity aided by structural damage from the planes and heat from burning office materials weakening the steel structure. Once I read the work of Stephen Jones, BYU Physics Dept., Emeritus, on thermite reactions I concluded that a controlled demolition was the most likely explanation of how the 3 trade center buildings came down in the way they did.

On the balance of physical as well chemical analytical evidence available from NIST, EPA, FEMA and and the open peer-reviewed scientific literature, it appears to be possible that the three buildings WTC-1, WTC-2 and WTC-7 were in fact brought down by a controlled demolition using (resonantly wired) Al/S/Fe2O3 based thermite explosives, possibly in form of a silica based sol-gel coating applied to the central steel cores of the towers and/or WTC-7. A truly independent group of engineers and scientists (possibly composed only of non-US citizens from other NATO/G-7 countries) should be set-up to investigate this possibility.

Common sense suggested from the moment of watching the buildings fall, that they were demolished deliberately and by explosive means. Such demolition and the required time for set-up, as well as the subsequent cover-ups by various government agencies and commissions requires the conclusion that multiple elected agents of the executive and legislative branches of this government were complicit in the 9/11 crime.

The official investigation was insufficient in it's scope. Much of the post-collapse evidence has been left out of the official investigation. The questions that have been raised due to the post-collapse evidence have been ignored and certainly left unanswered. The official explanations for the 3 major collapses are not backed by physical evidence. Catastrophes that would be considered minor compared to the events of 9/11 have been investigated with greater care and completeness than what has been done and reported by NIST and FEMA. A more thorough investigation of the cause of the collapse of those three buildings is long overdue.

I'm a tenured professor at MIT, and have been teaching there for the past 15 years. I started off as a field consultant working with structural engineers, and gradually moved up in the industry. After I received my doctorate I moved back to Boston, and started teaching at MIT.
It all started when I first saw the attack on television. There was an abundance of information, supplied by, 'experts', and the media. However, there were so many questions left unanswered. I took the liberty of running some of the numbers myself. I had to do this because the collapse just seemed too precise, falling onto it's own footprint, the near freefall speed of the collapse. Even other factors, like the explosions heard on the lower floors, are trivialized by the media. The numbers just don't add up.

I am an economist and a student of public affairs. I have no technical expertise that qualifies me to judge these matters. But I can read, can listen, and have become convinced that the official story of what happened on 9/11/01 simply cannot be true.
The official story of the collapse of building 7, delayed until August 2008, not mentioned once in the 911 commission report, defies credibility. The NIST report on the towers, to a lay person, could, possibly be true. But the official story of the collapse of building 7 cannot be true. And if that isn't true, the tower collapse story probably isn't true either.

Statement: The events on 9/11 will remain one of the worst crimes of the 21st century, and served already as pretexts for wars that claimed thousands of lives. They compromised the relation of Western countries with large parts of the world, and have already been used to strip the population of Western countries off vital democratic rights. There is compelling evidence that, in contrast to what the world has been told about the 9/11 events, the WTC towers were destroyed by controlled demolition. Consequently, one may conclude that the so-called 'attack on America' was in fact an inside job. Bringing the truth to light is crucial for enabling future generations to live in a more peaceful and just world.
