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.

Cannot possibly be anything but controlled demolition. The speed of collapse, WTC 7, and all the tangential evidence point to a false flag event of endemic proportion.

Having gone to Katherine Gibbs Secretarial School, I started out as a secretary at Time magazine in New York in advertising sales and ended up as a secretary to the CEO of Time Inc. Roy Larsen. I left Time Inc. as a copywriter in the promotion department of Life Magazine. As a late-bloomer, I graduated cum laude with a BA from Manhattanville College with a double major in religion and classics when I was 44 and earned an MA in the Humanities ten years later.
Even a layman like me would know that the third building that came down was not affected by the planes and and the fires they caused at all. Why did that neighboring building collapse, and why did it come down so neatly in its own footprint? Any thinking person would expect that the original fires started by the explosions of the gas tanks of the planes that penetrated the Twin Towers would burn offices around them but would be confined to those floors. The Twin Towers were not built like flammable frame houses. I wondered how fires on the top floors of a skyscraper could cause the entire building to collapse?

I witnessed the towers fall from my freshman year English class room. At that very moment I knew instinctively that there was no way the jets alone could have caused the collapse. The images were obviously showing a controlled demolition. When the story about weakened steal and the pancake effect came out as the final conclusion I could not believe it and have had an acute interest in the subject ever since. We all deserve the truth.

The Authorities all new the towers were a target and they rehearsed the scenario years before. The F-16s rehearsed protecting the buildings, they had the intelligence and the preparation and they stood guard. the warnings were never relayed, the guards were called away on that morning. It's as if it was allowed to happen. Planned out. When I saw on tv the plane hit the building I thought: How could they let this happen? Why did they let it happen? They are not getting away with slamming people in planes into people in buildings. This kind of thing just doesn't happen in this country. We are smart people. We see things like this coming. My concern is not in the way the buildings fell but where they fell. They fell in our faces with our eyes wide open. Who ordered the scene cleared and the scraps picked up so fast? Who picked it up -Military? Private contractors? Who usually cleans up this kind of mess? Was it different this time? why? It's funny how people reacted. For e.g. the notion a lot of people took for the war that freedom isn't free. But that really wasn't it. They didn't get it. The war just added injury to Insult! Hooray for the TRUTHERS Hooray for LINK TV Hooray for The Power Of The People!

It is clear that the aircraft used to impact the WTC buildings were not the commercial aircraft alleged to have been the ones. Our news media is a part of the conspiracy to keep this quiet. Clearly the size of the impact zone reflects that as the truth, something our news media (involved in the conspiracy) will keep from the public.

I have seen on TV commercial buildings collapse under controlled demolition prior to 911. I have been told that no certified US demolition companies will comment officially on 911. I personally saw and heard in real time 2 firemen (one dirty and exhausted, seated outside on a low brick garden wall) and another just reporting for action - nice and clean. Both were looking at Building 7 in the near background (1 block?) away and to the question for the exhausted one by the fresh one regarding its status the exhausted one looked at his watch and said as clearly as I can remember, Its going down about 4:30! I didn't think too much about it at the time but now I think about it a lot whenever 911 comes up!

Please, if you have not already invested the time to do so, take two hours to view Richard Gage's talk at http://www.911blogger.com/node/10025 and consider the evidence with an open mind. - - - - Among other things, the official story leaves unexplained (a) the source of heat that could produce 2700F temperatures required to deform the steel when jet fuel can only attain about 1400F, and (b) how a steel framed building with both core and perimeter columns could collapse at free-fall speed instead of being slowed in its fall by the columns and mass of the floors below the impact site, and (c) why WTC 1, 2 and 7 collapsed while no other documented instance of fire in steel framed buildings has ever resulted in building collapse, though some of the fires have burned more intensely for longer times than at WTC. - - - - When these shortcomings are taken together with the other lines of positive evidence observed in the collapse of WTC 1, 2 and 7 and supporting controlled demolition, the case is very strong that the official story is at odds with the truth. Please examine it for yourself.

I have analyzed the many videos available for these events, and the documented evidence cannot be denied. The pulverization of the concrete, the video documented blasts, the witness accounts of the blasts, all indicate that explosives were involved.
The design of the Towers can be thought of like a rolled up screen standing on its end. Poking a spike through the screen cylinder near its top does not cause that screen to collapse.

It couldn't be more obvious this was a highly coordinated event. The catastrophic intelligence failure of all the governmental departments is suspect. A conclusion can easily be drawn that it was a partnership of corrupt politicians and their for-profit global partners that engineered a crisis. Project for a New American Century is suspect for their involvement in planning the catastrophic event that was needed for their goals.

Far too much of the official story of 9/11 violates what we know of the physical laws to be accepted. Far too many improbable events lined up for 9/11 to unfold the way it did to be a matter of chance. It was far beyond the capabilities of anyone other than those with the highest level access to information to secret information of the workings of the FAA, NORAD, and the military. Fear and pain are blinding.

The Official cause of the destruction of the North & South towers cited in the 9/11 Commission Report assumes that the U.S. Federal Government believes the American people are too stupid to see through their lies. Hence, the government failed to invest much effort in covering it up.Overall, none of the physical evidence is supported by the 9/11 Commission's Report that office furniture caused the towers and building seven collapse. The heat generated by office furniture and jet fuel doesn't burn hot enough to melt structural steel, meaning that the official report isn't worth the paper it's printed on. There will never be an impartial investigation of the 9/11 event if the government can serve as a member of that investigation.

One would need to be blind and/or mentally challenged NOT to see that it was controlled demolitions that brought down all three buildings at the WTC in 2001, and it is abundantly clear that the 'official story' is pure caca. We need, no DEMAND, an independent, scientific, and legitimate investigation of the *facts* to determine which parties were behind this atrocity.

I had an anoxic brain injury 10 years ago. Before that, I was a highly paid researcher in MANY fields--a 'Renaissance Researcher' [!] I have recovered most of my faculties, and find that as time goes on, I am remembering more & more about the fields I researched--architecture, amongst them.
My brother is an engineer---and he claims though buildings CAN fall egregiously, to have a series of builldings go down in an almost impossible manner is HIGHLY suspicious. I tend to trust his judgment....

From the beginning I have had serious doubts that 9/11 could have taken place as has been reported. From my own research there are too many important facts preceding 9/11 and on 9/11 that have been kept from the public. I find the government reports so far to actually be insulting to my own intelligence. For instance, the passports they found on the sidewalk outside the trade center and other such nonsense. I want a real investigation, not one of these insider politico hand picked hack jobs.

The buildings collapsed symmetrically which means they did not fall from side impacts. The buildings collapsed too quickly for the collapse to be due to fire. The investigations were not handled in a manner that satisfied my curiosity about the causes behind the collapse.

WTC buildings came down in their footprints with behavior of planned demolitions. Why was WTC 7 pulled when it wasn't hit by jet? This comment by Silverstein indicates a pre-prepared demolition of at least WTC Building 7, if not the other two buildings also. Numerous witnesses (Firemen, police officers, citizens, etc.) have testified that they heard repeated explosions indicating bombs planted throughout building. Testimony and evidence used in the official 9/11 investigation seems selective and incomplete and biased. The hole in Pentagon not big enough for a Boeing 757 to have hit it. In my view, numerous unanswered questions and unscientific analyzes prompt me to call for a new and unbiased investigation to get to the truth of this national tragedy.

I am the Newsletter Editor for Denton ABATE, a motorcyclists rights organization and a chapter of Texas ABATE. We lobby for safer roads and better education for drivers and motorcyclists. But the evidence I have seen about the Twin Towers collapse makes me think I am focusing on too small an issue. There are bigger things to be concerned about, like the probability that the Twin Towers were deliberately demolished. This cannot be ignored.
The morning of 9/11, I turned on the TV as the first tower fell. Not knowing anything about the jets hitting the towers, I thought that it was a local news feed about a deliberate building demolition. After reading and seeing some of the evidence, it now appears that my first instinct may have been right on the mark.

Why were the 9/11 events necessary? For whom? More parallels should be made with other staged attacks in history (rise of the National Socialist party in Germany, Pearl Harbor(?)). Provide occurrences of this technique in military/political texts (Machiavelli, Sun Tsu, others).
