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 served thirty years in the Coast Guard Reserve, reaching the rank of Captain.
I see too many inconsistencies. I do not believe those buildings collapsed as a result of plane impact. Additionally, too many witnesses heard explosions, and there was significant evidence of explosive residue at the site.

My employer sent me to NY on 9/10/01 on business, and I flew into NY LaGuardia on 9/10/01 at 11:30 PM. I was in New York City on 9/11/01, so am one of millions to witness this destruction from relatively near, and remained in NY for weeks after. Knowing like many that all was surely not as it appeared, we brought in films and lecturers to Kansas City starting in 2001 in order to educate others of the need for real and impartial investigations of what is certainly a false flag event. This evil deed must not continue to go unpunished. The actual perpetrators will yet be brought to justice, and through this we can correct and adjust for our future. We the people can always handle the truth, yet most of those in power are proven irresponsible and cannot allow the truth, much less demand it. We demand an actual arms length technical investigation, outsourced to a truly independent commission, to follow to wherever the truth itself leads. We should also demand actual and thorough criminal investigations and prosecutions, starting with basic evidence from the crime scene itself.

I received my Master of Divinity Degree from the Starr King School for the Ministry in Berkeley, California, in 1986. From 2000 until the present (2010) I've been, with my partner, in charge of the Fellowship of Humanity in Oakland, California, a deep green Humanist Church.
I've seen a dozen documentaries on the 9/11 truth scenario and they very convincingly show and tell how the WTC buildings, including Building 7, could not have collapsed the way they did (in some 8 seconds?) because airplanes hit them near the top. It is apparently a matter of physics that steel can't heat up that much or that fast from the initial burning of jet fuel on the top floors to take down the entire buildings in a short time. I was also concerned about how all the evidence of the melted beams on ground zero was removed so quickly, almost over night, so that they couldn't be adequately examined. Then there was the taped voices of the firefighters who heard explosives going off as they were working on the ground floor or the lower floors. There was so much compelling evidence for demolition -- it's all in the documentaries on this subject available to anyone I think.

Joseph has been involved in the design, management, and administration of architecture and construction for over 30 years, responsible for built projects worth up to $2 billion. He is the former President and part owner of the construction management (CM) firm that directed both the $115 million Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District's ES Reconstruction Program as well as Murrieta Valley Unified School District's $180 million Capital Improvements Program, both in California, and was Principal-in-Charge for over $1 billion worth of projects for the Los Angeles Unified School District. In addition, he has owned and operated several companies, including CM, architectural, and a mid-sized construction firm in Los Angeles. Joseph offers to clients a strong background in CM, construction, architectural design, strategic/long-range educational facility planning, and technical support specializing in the management of multi-million dollar, multi-project capital improvements programs directing hundreds of technical professionals. Joseph began his architectural career by obtaining a Masters degree from UCLA's Graduate School of Architecture and Urban Planning. After that, he had the privilege of working with the world-renowned and cutting-edge architecture firms of Morphosis, Charles Moore and the Urban Innovations Group, Eric Owen Moss, and Daniel, Mann, Johnson and Mendenhall (DMJM).
When I watched the buildings burning, I was, of course, shocked. But when I saw them pancake down, I knew immediately that something was truly amiss. I know from the experience of being involved in the design and construction of high-rise office buildings that the pattern of collapse was just too perfect, and that the amount of debris left at the bottom was too small for the amount of steel, concrete, glass, and furnishings that make up structures of that immensity. Also, unless the destruction is carefully planned, there is always some weakness inherent in the construction that will make the building list to one side during a natural destruction. Strange, indeed.

I wrote a simulation of the towers collapse and convinced myself that the laws of conservation of momentum would not allow the buildings to collapse in the manner described, and that the only alternative that I could ascertain was that the buldings required charges to fall with the speed observed.

The fall of all structures looks too controlled. I would also have expected there would be more time between the initial impacts and the collapse of the towers.

It seems pretty obvious to me as a registered architect that the collapse of the three WTC buildings were too controlled to be anything other than a controlled demolition. The evidence seems overwhelming that this is the truth. We need to know who did this and how. How could this have been implemented without causing suspicion?

I do believe that there is a great amount of fallacies in the official report from the 9/11 commission and of the US government. It is my belief that there is substantial evidence for proving that the Towers and Bldg 7 did not collapse solely due to the airplanes and/or debris. The sheer fact that there is hard, documented evidence of thermitic spheres and partially reacted thermite in the dust from around the city is proof enough to bring about an official, third party, investigation into the events of 9/11.

On first seeing the collapse videos, it was immediately clear that this was a demolition. The exterior walls of the towers were heavily structured. Small windows was a major criticism of the building. More free interior space was the result. Since the exterior walls were exceptionally strong, the likelihood that they could TOTALLY collapse is a complete improbability. Similarly, one tower sustained symmetric damage[opposing sides] while the other tower sustained damage on adjacent sides. Two radically different conditions that resulted in identical failures. Completely illogical.

It is the architects responsibility to ensure the Health, Safety and Welfare of humans when related to buildings design and cosntruction. In order to forsee potential threats caused by buildings to humans we need to have a clear and deep understanding of precedents to evaluate them and make sure we dont fall into the same errors again. A lot of misinformation surrounds the WTC7 investigation, it is time our voices are heard and a definite explanation is exposed.

As I watched the Twin Towers fall to the ground on live television, September 11, 2001, I knew in my heart of hearts that the narrative that would unfold would be filled with lies and obfuscation. I knew that governments and media outlets could not be trusted to tell the truth about the events of that day. I knew that the citizens of the world would soon be subjected to tyrannical suspicion. Now, looking back, was I wrong in thinking that as I watched the towers fall? For me, the WTC Building 7 event blended in with the rest of the days events on 9/11. At first, it was a footnote. But, now after all that I have seen and heard from countless credible sources, particularly the voluminous evidence presented by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, I am convinced that WTC 7 did not fall due to 'Office fires'. Anyone with critical thinking skills and an internet connection can clearly see that the world has been lied to with explanations from major media outlets and government officials. Read ae911truth.org. Read/listen to Christopher Bollyn. Read/listen to James Fetzer. Read/listen to James Perloff. Do these people have all the answers? No, but they certainly present a host of unassailable evidence that should lead any critical thinker to ask more questions and seek the unabridged truth about 9/11 as opposed to the lies of the contemporary 9/11 narrative.
