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.

The following questions need to be addressed and answered, without the use of explosives, for the official story about 9/11 (as described in the 9/11 Commission Report, the FEMA report, and the NIST report) to be true. 1. The first question deals with the total collapse of World Trade Center Building 7. This 47-story skyscraper was not hit by an aircraft and would have been the tallest building in 33 of our states. Yet, it collapsed into a tidy rubble pile in 6.5 seconds in the exact manner of a controlled demolition at 5:20 PM on September 11, 2001. Please describe or explain a non-explosive scenario for the total collapse of this building that is in agreement with all the evidence known to date. 2. The second question deals with the Twin Towers (World Trade Center Buildings 1 and 2) and the 90,000 tons of metal decking, concrete floors, drywall, office furniture, and missing bodies that were pulverized in mid-air during the total collapse of these buildings. Please describe or explain a non-explosive scenario for the complete pulverization of all of these materials into dust in 10-13 seconds. 3. The third question deals with the free-fall speed of the collapse of all three buildings. Please describe a non-explosive scenario that explains the symmetrical collapse of each of these buildings straight down'through the path of greatest resistance'at an acceleration that is indistinguishable from free-fall acceleration in a vacuum. 4. The fourth question deals with the molten metal that was observed below Ground Zero by many people after the buildings collapsed. Please describe a non-explosive scenario that explains how Ground Zero remained an inferno and how molten metal remained fluid for a least six weeks after the collapse. 5. The fifth question deals with the steel framework in most modern skyscrapers including the Twin Towers and Building 7. This metal framework conducts heat rapidly, distributing it throughout the entire structure, which explains why no steel-framed skyscraper had ever collapsed due to fire prior to 9/11. Please therefore describe or explain how the massive framework of structural steel in the World Trade Center (which had a melting point of 2750 degrees Fahrenheit) could have been fatally weakened by localized jet-fuel fires (which reach a maximum temperature of 1800 degrees Fahrenheit) without the aid of explosives.

I read somewhere that the power to all of the security cameras was shut down a few days before the attack while some sort of Maintenance occurred. Finding out who orchestrated that event might give you some clues as to who was behind this. - - - - What amazes me is a coordinated effort like this involves a lot of people from the material suppliers to the field installers etc. I don't know how they are able to keep every person involved silent regarding such a horrific event.

I'm a civil engineer with over 17 years of experience in transportation. My study of the WTC-7 collapse is not from a structural engineering perspective, only straight physics. I look forward to a structural engineer providing a more reasonable explanation for the rate of collapse.
I can't get past the consistency of the WTC-7 collapse and any number of controlled demolition operations. I've looked at overall time of collapse vs. free fall and from a conservation of momentum point of view. The correlation is striking and hard to explain without a simultaneous failure of all support within the WTC-7.

How obvious do controlled demolitions have to be?? If you examine the footage of the second planes impact from behind, you can tell as it enters the side of the building that it wasn't a true plane impact -- as the steel beams would have cut off the wings of the plane. The building absorbed what appeared to be a plane. If you stop the footage to the point where the wings have entered the building (and just the tail is sticking out), you will NOT see a hole where supposedly the wings just went through!

Any electrical engineer knows that when buildings collapse they do not explode. I saw explosions and particles being ejected outward and upward. This was not a collapse. I knew that there was something unnatural about two buildings collapsing straight down the day I saw this. Then there was a third building (WTC 7) that also collapsed like a perfectly executed conventional controlled demolition. I've been a 9/11 truther since about 9:30 AM on Sept. 11 2001. The FBI tried to blow up one of the towers in '93 and they were caught on tape. This has to be an inside job.

I currently have over 3 total years of college experience ranging from American Government and public speaking to Anatomy & Physiology, microbiology and psychology. As a child I was tested and ranked 16th most intelligent in my state and in high school I was evaluated both intellectually and psychologically and revealed to be of unusually high intelligence. I was the only student to receive such an evaluation.
The structural failings of the WTC buildings that took place on the morning of September 11th, 2001 have never seemed a legitimate, viable outcome to have resulted from passenger airliner collisions. These structures were fabricated with every precaution for every feasible circumstance in mind, one of those being the possibility of an airliner colliding with the buildings. There were reports from various professionals on-site that morning, specifically NYPD and FDNY, of explosive charges being detonated throughout the lower floors of the towers. These charges are reported by ground crews, teams and survivors from inside the towers and air support officers. It should be noted that these professionals have been rigorously trained and would recognize the difference between pressure explosions from collapsing floors and physical detonations. It is also my understanding that jet fuel burns much too quickly to be responsible for sufficiently weakening the beams of either tower enough to promote structural collapse. I find it odd that an impact taking place well above the sway point of a building could be responsible for a perfect controlled demolition-esque vertical drop... and not just once, but twice?!

I will be 21 years of age this year. I live in the Arizona area in the United States. I love Philosophy, Ontology, Anthropology, Poetry, and a bit of Politics. I have been drawn to the attention of the new world order and so on. Because of all of this I believe in digging for the truth. Its my human instinct.
Like I stated in my bio, I believe in what the architects are saying about demolition of the towers in New York. I was very young when I saw people jumping off the buildings and people covered with a white type of powder. I was so confused at the time but ever since then I've been drawn to the 9/11 tragedy. It makes me and so many people very sad to think about that day. After seeing the video I am convinced and believe that everything researched is true. I want this type of investigation to continue and find out why it is that the government did not properly give out real evidence of the case through media and through paper work. We need to further out this case because it is not fair to any of us after seeing what AE has discovered. We need to stand up for the truth. It's only obvious now and people will start to come across these facts just as I did.

I am a sixty year old writer and artist with an A.A. in Sociology from Clark County Community College in Las Vegas, NV. My limited expertise is in observation, only. Observation is an important ability in either discipline.
Living in Las Vegas, NV I had seen a few casino demolitions in the years prior to 9/11. I realize that I am a layperson regarding demolition, however my first and only impression of the Twin Towers falling was that they had been imploded by a controlled demolition expert. I was sure of it, when I later saw Building #7 go down, twenty minutes after a BBC newsman announced that it had gone down. Was he psychic, or did he receive the news alert before he was suppose to get it? There are a lot of things that need to be examined about the events on 9/11. Not just the Twin Towers, but also the Pentagon and Flight #93. I have lots of questions, as do a great many of the people I've talked to about this. As a people, things have been done in our names that most of us did not agree to. We were rushed into The Patriot Act, and have been pretty much ignored as far as We The People are concerned. 9/11 was used as an excuse to release and try to release certain safeguards which were put in place by our forefathers. There have been obvious attempts to corner the power of our Checks and Balances by openly bypassing our systems and/or openly stacking the cards (men and women of one suit) in order to push through what would not otherwise be acceptable by The People. Yes, I want to see an impartial investigation by The People, not our politicians. Too many people with special interests have been selected for our investigations with predictable results. I am glad that the quest for an impartial investigation is still in the works! Thank you!

As a technical writer in many fields, it's been my job to interview engineers and highly educated technical types. I speak their language. It's a language of empiricism. It has lead to the creation of the modern world we live in. It's as close to a formula as man has ever come up with with which to determine the truth. This web site, aptly named 9/11 Truth, has got it right and needs to be supported in this swamp of distortions ignorantly cherished as our culture.
The videos of the towers' collapse reveal 10 out of 10 details to expect in a controlled demolition. Ten out of 10 is a lot. Statistically, I think the probability works out to a one in a million chance that the towers' were NOT brought down by a controlled demolition.

I am not an architect, nor am I an engineer, but I am an open minded and critical thinking individual who believes in open evidence-based and credible science.
I have seen a significant amount of footage of the incidents of 9/11 - the planes hitting the towers, the collapse of the two towers, the collapse of WTC7 and a lot of other footage - from many different angles, and from various different sources. I have heard and read comments and criticism from architects, and engineers and have looked at all of this with a critical and skeptical mind - both critical of the official story, and critical of people's claims who believe 9/11 was an inside job. After considering all this information critically and researching these claims myself, it is absolutely clear that the official story is at the very most only half the story. There are many things not taken into account and even ignored by the official investigation and it needs to be re-opened so that ALL of the information and evidence available can be looked at and seriously considered in an OPEN and TRANSPARENT manner so that all the people of the world can see what is being investigated, how it's being investigated, and what sequence of logic has lead the investigators to their conclusions. Further to this, I believe that the events of 9/11 were at the very least known and aided by the American government, if not entirely orchestrated by them. The two towers and WTC7 were taken down with controlled demolitions, thermite was used on the two towers and possibly WTC7, fighter jets defense systems were deliberately confused, distracted, and suppressed, preventing quick and effective countermeasures, CCTV footage of the explosion at the Pentagon conveniently disappeared and then came to light in conveniently fragmented parts. Firefighters and civilians on the street and in the two towers heard explosions in the basement and elsewhere in the buildings before their collapse. THE EVIDENCE IS OVERWHELMING. People who have any doubt that it was an inside job need to look into the evidence themselves. You cannot refute it until you have considered it. WAKE UP. Not everything you're told by the mainstream media is the truth, and what you're told by the mainstream media is not the whole story. Don't be lazy. This is your life, your world, your childrens world. Seek out the truth - use the internet, find this information for yourself. Take a look at the petition on this site - show it to your friends, convince more people. Spread the word.

It was immediately evident to any and all thinking & observant persons who viewed the demolitions of all 3 of the WTC buildings that met their destruction on Sept.11th, 2001 that these events were methodically and professionally planned well in advance. Controlled explosions of extreme high-rise buildings resulting in a predictably condensed debris field with a consistent diameter are considerably more logistically difficult than controlled implosions with similar results. Yet this is what the world witnessed on that day, and have done each day since when the footage of these grizzly events is reviewed.

Let's start with Building 7 and the 23rd Floor. Too many people forget about this building which makes it easy to shine some light on what really happened. With the BBC announcing the demise of Building 7 an hour prior to it actually falling, one of hundreds of obvious pieces of evidence stands out like a beacon.

Having no engineering or other college degrees, I still happen to be intrigued by the overwhelming evidence on line for the implosion of all 3 WTC buildings. I have researched this evidence thoroughly for almost 4 yrs. now. The Zeitgeist movie is what brought my attention to this issue, and after thinking there was no way our government or corporations could be responsible at the cost of 3000 lives, the research I did was thorough, and all evidence pointed to a conspiracy. The cover up is apparent and appalling.
No doubt that all 3 buildings were an implosion. The official story is obviously a cover up given the evidence. I felt very angry that we have been lied to, and am adamant about the need for the truth to be fully disclosed. The people of the world have a right to know why this happened and to bring those responsible to justice. Millions of us who know these truths will find a way to make the facts available to all. This is one of many sites that are demanding answers as it should be.

The official story was unbelievable from the beginning. First clue was temperatures cited vs temperatures achievable by fuel sources and this vis-'-vis steel melting/softening temperatures. I had out my physical and mathematical tables book within a week of the event. Since then the amount of evidence -conspicuous physical evidence, forensic evidence, chronological evidence, etc.- all compels a radically different conclusion. Some things are so blatant it is boggling to observe the silence and inaction. This includes but is far from exclusive to the fall of building 7.

My first real interest in WTC 9/11/01 was started when a writer friend sent me evidence and asked me, with my physics background, to look into it for him. With my experience with molten metals and steel fabrication and temperatures required, learning the fact of abundant molten steel, was an immediate clincher that it being generated by airplanes and jet fuel without hypergenerated oxygenation was a flat out impossibility, therefore a fabrication as cause for the witnessed effect. With that realization came the compelling question, 'what else is false in this picture?' and has become an intriguing puzzle ever since, seeking truth and resolution to a great number of trajectories emanating from, and focused in, that event.

I might actually do them all some day but no hurry. Have a 4.0 GPA, received the Beck Literary Award and have more credits than Carter has liver pills. I went to learn, becoming degreed in humanities was not a huge priority, understanding humankind was and is. In TX, I was a young housewife, then went into professional sales before moving to Alaska, a dream since age 14. Raised two children alone, one died at age 16, the other is headed for college in January at UT in TX. Was a total 'PTA Mom' for both, spanning 25 years of service, always ready to chaperone, read, raise funds and do whatever the school or teachers needed. In Alaska, I started out as a working tourist: cooked in a gold mine, on a commercial fishing vessel, ofc mgr at Trident Seafoods cannery, bookkeeper on the Haul Rd for the Mackey family at Coldfoot Station, and finally settled into being the program asst for a non-profit that helped Bush families with special needs infants and toddlers. Then finally ... disability due to strokes/heart attacks arising from long undiagnosed diabetes. Spent the last 15 years glued to the net. I'm an avid and quite excellent researcher plus I've learned quite a bit about internet PR/Advertising and graphic design. I'm a Jill of all trades and mistress of quite a few!
My mother worked for Buffalo Steel when I was a child and I was taken several times to see controlled demolitions of high rises in the Houston, TX area. I know what they look like. I've know for over 40 years, and have made almost a hobby of watching footage of many of the world's most famous controlled detonations. The day I saw the Towers implode and fall straight down, I knew exactly what I was seeing although my heart at first refused to acknowledge it. It did not take long for to start openly discounting what the 'experts' were saying but at that time, almost immediately afterwards, I had not one shred of real evidence, just my gut instincts and knowledge of simple physics. I was vilified, called a traitor, a liar, and worse. But I could not and will not forget. I keep pushing the truth. We did not win the revolution only to end the Great Experiment so soon. I didn't know the words false flag operation until after 9/11, but I certainly do now. More Americans should be aware that they can love their country just as much as they hate their government. They are, after all, two entirely different things. Whomever the creators of this dastardly scheme are, I hope they go through every circle of Dante's Hell, over and over again, for eternity. I cannot imagine why any citizen would bring their own nation to its knees, perhaps forever, except that avarice is the likely cause, and hubris will eventually cause their fall. I hope I live through the inevitable second revolution to tell my grandchildren that I saw the fall of our nation begin on a beautiful early autumn day while their daddy was in choir class. I just hope that, again, the good guys win.

I've worked in construction most of my life, and have recently started construction of a house. I enjoy reading and watching educational programs on tv. I would like to think I could safely demolish anything that I could construct, but not make a structure fall in it's own footprint without explosives.
I've heard many demolision experts talk about how hard it is to emplode a building, and that it takes a precise layout of explosive charges to prevent collatoral damage, that is to say that it is difficult to make a building fall in it's own footprint. Even a casual viewing of the explosion shows a uniform burst around the entire structure, as the explosives were detonated. How come no flight recorders were ever discovered?

On the morning of September 11, 2001, I watched live on television as the second plane hit the south Tower of the World Trade Center. I turned to my associates and said it's a sad day because many people have died today in those buildings. I also stated that the fires will eventually be put and the buildings will be repaired because they are designed to withstand such events. When the buildings collapsed at free fall speed I knew right then and there that what I was witnessing were controlled demolitions. On behalf of every single man, woman and child who has suffered from this event I demand to know the truth about what really happened on that fateful day.

I am in shock. At first I could not believe what I was viewing. The puffs of smoke coming out the sides of the buildings where the charges blew. It was difficult to comprehend. I said to myself, This can't be true! I could not accept the fact that some people in the U.S. government could stoop so low as to cause this to happen. It is beyond belief.

Since 1991, because of my experiences that affect both national and global community, I have been writing. A lot of my writings get out to those interested in 9/11/01, ending wars and prejudices, and re-establishing life affirming laws the 9/11/01 catastrophes threatens ongoing..Letting people fully comprehend the truth of 9/11/01 has been a passion of mine. Also, I was personally forewarned of these catastrophes, which my writings document.
National or Political Security? The 9/11/01 catastrophes and an out of control USA both industrial military and prison complex are interconnected. 9-11-01 Truth will end wars and truly make America the sort of nation we can be proud of. The amount of billionaires in a nation is no example of a great nation; our public schools, health care, affordable rent, environmental safety, all basic ways and needs of people have been threatened by the false flag created terror of 9/11/01 (controlled demolitions).

I have a BA from Reed College and have done some post graduated work in stratgic planning and writing. Over the years I have served on various Bay Area boards ir board committees(International Development Council , World Affairs Council, Red Cross, English Speaking Union and have done considerable community work. Following some years in toxics research where i wrote and edited the blog HealthNet , I worked with various individuals and agenicies on toxics monitoring. Recently my work has focused on environmental issues, where i have done organization, grant writing and special project work around the Bay Area oil spill and clean up. And my current work involves wriiting, editing and interviewing individuals who have contributed to the health of the environment.
This is such an important effort. --I am not an engineer but have read much and understand that structurally neither of the twin towers would have gone down from the impact of the planes--that the steel would have twisted from the impact-- Also the absence of an explanation for the pulled building #3. NPR played a recording with the NYPD or NYFD Fire Chief instructing the pull. IT is hard not to get political There are so many unanswered questions on every single front. The country needs the truth--the whole painful truth. I applaud your effort and wish you all the best. Thank you for this important effort.

I am a technical writer trained in the scientific method and logical thinking, and consider myself able to assess evidence and weigh facts of a situation.
It appears that the evidence of the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings has not been fully considered. Furthermore, it also appears that evidence has been ignored and perhaps even destroyed purposefully. This is unacceptable in any case, but especially so in the case of an event of such globally important magnitude. Further investigation is essential.

I am a 49 year old divorced father of three boys. I work as a prts expeditor at an U.S. army depot. I am an avid reader and researcher interested in truth and I am a political activist. I attended Occupy D.C. with October 2011 at freedom Plaza from Oct. 4th-9th. I'm sick and tired of Government incompetence, corruption, and a lack of leadership and true patriotism shown by our elected officials.
I never did understand how those buildings freefell the way they did, it just didn't make sense. After watching the video, I knew why. And although this was a crime scene, it was never handled as such and no real investigation ever done.

I am a volunteer, researcher, blogger, and writer. I am always interested in trying to learn and experience new things to make me better and wiser than ever before.
Honestly, when I first saw the coverage of the plane hitting the WTC I thought it was a movie. It didn't seem real to me. And it never occurred to me that there could be a conspiracy of epic proportions because my feeling was how would such a conspiracy that deep be pulled off? But then I saw Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura in 2009 and their presentation made perfect sense to me that I just had to find out more. So then I started watching videos online and reading articles about how it wouldn't be possible for an inexperienced pilot to pull off the maneuvers that the Official story was claiming without crashing much sooner before ever making contact with the Pentagon, and how the WTC collapsed nearly entirely into its footprint in ten seconds and at near free fall speed -- things like that just really intrigued me and makes me wonder why with all of the evidence that's out there, they aren't willing to even try to do a new independent investigation.

I am a poet/song writer, a mother and a humanitarian at heart. My life's focus has been on personal and spiritual growth.
I do not believe there are any words that can accurately express the horrors of the 9/11 atrocity. . .nor the pains that are being felt by the thousands of innocent citizens who are being victimized, in a criminal war against terrorism since then. if 9/11 happened for the high criminals in our own government to create an excuse to destroy our freedom. . .etc., I pray that the truths be found quickly and the criminals prosecuted to fullest extent of the law. My gut feeling is that 9/11 was indeed home grown. . .and I pray that this can soon be proven, because the whole situation has left too many hearts without proper closure and has opened doors to other continuing atrocities that most of the public is not aware of.

After personal research, I hold serious doubts as to the veracity of the official story pertaining to the events of 9/11 regarding the collapse of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building Seven. After hearing the testimony of police officers and firefighters who were on scene on 9/11, architects and engineers who helped to build the Towers, as well as that of employees from the Towers and Building Seven who were working that day, I have reason to believe the collapse of those buildings was aided by explosives and an incendiary device of some sort.

I'm a writer/thinker who has been published in Australia, Europe, and the U.S, and my book, Terminal Planet or Green Earth? was published in 2006. I got second to Obama in the N.H. Dem. Primary in January out of 14 candidates because I called for addressing the serious problems that confront us and that are being ignored.
The collapse of all three buildings that day were obviously controlled demolitions, and I would like to hear more about all of the files that were destroyed and quickly hauled to the dump that were in Building Seven.

After receiving my Bachelors Degree (with majors in political science and journalism), I chose to forego my dream of a journalism career to be a full time mother to my children. I have been a supporter of AE 911 Truth since its beginning. Almost everyone I have tried to convince about the truth of 9/11 has refused to watch any of the videos I have that clearly prove the Twin Towers and Building 7 were brought down by explosives. They can't believe that anyone would be so ruthlessly calculating to destroy hundreds of lives. Nonetheless, I have never given up hope that the incident would someday be openly investigated.
The evidence is irrefutable. There is too much of it. The only way to believe that the Twin Towers and Building 7 were not brought down by controlled demolitions is to totally deny all the scientific proof.

American Truth Seeker. I've been a professional builder/carpenter (steel framed and wood framed structures) and I've also been a demolition professional. Unfortunately, neither of the aforementioned professions qualify for special significance on this site but, I'll forgive the oversight. I believe my 'real world', highly technical and precise work experience in the construction field gives me some insight into the events of that day. Having been a witness, and FEMA acknowledged 'victim' of the events of that day, seem to me to be secondary to my professional knowledge of structural integrity.
I was there. I wasn't surprised. I knew it was an inside job while it was happening.
