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.

After viewing the documentation about the evidence surrounding World Trade Center 7, and comparing it to structural characteristics of building materials under fire conditions, the explanations given by NIST don't quite match up. While some structural failure of the building after prolonged exposure to fire conditions fueled by office materials is possible, large structural steel beams would yield slowly over time and the building collapsing all at once is all but impossible, unless it was engineered to do so.

No skyscraper has ever collapsed due to fire, save the three that did on Sept. 11. Add to this that all three came down at nearly free fall speed. Furthermore, 'midair pulverization' of concrete is a curious occurrence, and it is clear that this happened by examining the massive dust clouds that were created during and directly following the collapse. Moreover, as Niels Harrit and Richard Gage, AIA, have pointed out, nano-thermite, including un-reacted particles, has been discovered in the dust. This last fact is the most disturbing, as it indicates several tons must have been placed in the buildings in advance.

On first observation of the two Towers being hit by airplanes, my response was What are they doing? My knowledge of covert false flag operations, recognized that any such attack could not occur without complicity from within national security agencies and top level political awareness. Later, as the Building Seven collapsed without an airplane crash, the big question arose that this was prepared far in advance, suggesting that the 9/11 Towers did not fall without far advanced complicity from within government and corporate circles. The absence of certain individuals in the two Towers on Sept. 11, 2001, who ordinarily were present, proved to be a key clue aiding analysis of possible suspects involved in the bringing down of the two Towers.

They found 2 hijacker passports the day of. Many of the hijackers are still alive today. The Towers fell into their own footprint clearly by demolition. Building 7 is the biggest smoking gun of all. The BBC reported on Building 7 saying that it collapsed before it was even brought down. You could see it still standing in the background as they reported on it, ridiculous. There's also footage of a firefighter telling people to get back they're gonna bring it down referring to Building 7 before it was demolished.

I have spent much of my free time since September 11th, 2001 gathering any information I could find relating to the event. My hometown of Middletown, NJ lost more family members than any other single community on that day, driving me to find valid answers through literature, meetings, presentations, and the internet.
I have many concerns regarding the collapse of both the Twin Towers and Building 7. The official NIST report leaves me with much skepticism, and does not match any of the information I have uncovered through personal research. I now, with the science presented by the ae911truth movement, I have even more doubt and demand answers.

Something very strange happened. Seeing the videos we can see clearly that the behavior of buildings during their falls, show us that something happened that is inconsistent with the laws of physics. The official story is not solved, which gives us the right to reconsider and ask for a new investigation. 9/11 did not occur only in the USA, it reached all peoples and countries as well. With evidence we have the right to initiate another investigation, opened with the free and democratic participation. Our planet calls for it!

I have read a high number of books on many of the issues surrounding this case and intelligence in general, and knowing what I know about the intelligence community's history of conducting false-flag terror attacks to promote interests worldwide, there is no doubt in my mind that the attacks on September 11th happened in a manner that is inconsistent with the official explanation.
There is much disinformation on both sides of the debate; both sides have put forth fantastic ideas about what happened. I am not an engineer or an architect, but seeing as how WTC 5 & 6 were hit head-on by debris falling during the collapse of the south Tower, I believe, and sustained catastrophic damage, those two buildings remained largely intact and took a form similar to the Alfred P. Murrah building after sustaining its damage from the truck bomb. Half the building was still there. WTC 7 was farther away from the south Tower, sustained comparably much less physical damage, and only had small fires burning. I do not believe that small burning fires, that could have been put out, were responsible for the perfect collapse of the building in on itself, such as in a controlled demolition. This is 7th grade physics, and I believe all the technical jargon from experts who try to find a way to scientifically prove this happened is a smokescreen to lend credibility to an argument that is just, common-sense wise, too fantastic to believe.

The 9/11 disaster, the way I see it after examining the tons of evidence on the web, is a very well played conspiracy that took months and months of planning which it is in self a small part of a greater conspiracy to control and manipulate the masses.

I believe without any doubt in my mind that the Buildings were taken down via controlled demolition. In my four years of looking at the 9/11 attacks from a more rational standpoint, I am confident in my beliefs, and the video Blueprint for Truth has only furthered these ideas. I no longer classify my ideas as conspiratorial because the evidence is too out in the open. It is not crazy or outrageous, it is simply fact.

There is no doubt in my mind that the towers did not fall due to fire causing structural failure. I have researched the events of 9/11 for the last 10 years and every single piece of evidence shows conclusively that the buildings all had explosives and were brought down by controlled demolition. There is more than enough evidence to merit another indepth investigation into what and who planned 9/11. The many videos captured of the events of that day should be enough for our government to want to look into what happened that day and every citizen of this country deserves to know the truth about what really happened on the day that changed all of our lives forever!

Honestly, I hate to give my point of view here. I'm no expert but I guess you don't have to be an expert. I believe we have been lied to. The plane that hit the Pentagon makes no sense to me at all. We have all kinds of warning systems built into that complex, including radar, air to ground missiles, and closed circuit security cameras. I'm sure there are hundreds of cameras all around the Pentagon. And then the footage we've all been presented sure looks like a missile running into that building. No way that plane cut through those giant steel girders. And where is the core of those buildings? Huge core steel skeleton beams. Please, I'm not smart but I'm smart enough to know when I'm being lied to. The plane that crashed in the field, well that just dosn't seem right either. No bodies, no plane. Please stop lying to us. I'm concerned about our country.

I have personally seen a controlled demolition. The WTC 7 building, in my opinion, resembled the same demolition I witnessed. I also have seen numerous pictures and reports from various sources and experts. I strongly believe that the explanation given to the public was erroneous. Tempered steel can not melt by structural fires, someone that has taken a simple chemistry class can obtain that knowledge. Also, the physical collapse of the Buildings were simply not credibly explained in the report given to the public.

Jet fuel burns at 1700 F, steel melts at 2700 F. Building 7 is the strongest case we have for a new investigation. Both because of the physics of how a 42 story steel building could collapse into its own footprint from a small fire and no impact and because it is not mentioned in the 9/11 commission report and 99% of Americans don't even know it happened. Finally, the visual of that collapse has more truly visceral impact than any of the other myriad anomalies in the official lie.

Why are Americans so gullible in believing such a bunch of lies the media and government portrays as truth? It was a controlled detonation, look at any building they want torn down and they fall the same way...STRAIGHT DOWN! If this was caused by an aircraft, they would have fallen side ways. But if you look at the blue prints, you can see this building was made so that not even a land missile could have brought these towers down!

I highly doubt that a jet-fuel explosion could bring down an enormous skyscraper built to withstand such a blast. Additionally, the air-tight elevator shafts would prevent a fire-ball from exploding out windows 90 stories down yet somehow people were burned and windows on the first floor shattered. Many people at the scene report hearing numerous explosions and being thrown back by shock waves, even in the basement. The fact that explosive chemicals were found in ground zero dust is concerning, especially since all evidence and video tapes were destroyed and not investigated. WTC Tower 7 had minimal damage, but also fell in the same manner as the two main Towers...which resembles a controlled demolition. Also, the Pentagon and Pennsylvania crashes left no evidence of a plane hitting the site. Two 6-ton engines could not reach the melting point needed to fully disintegrate, but no plane parts always otherwise found are missing. In the Pentagon, the damage was at the only reinforced side of the building, the hole is not big enough to fit a jet, witnesses describe a shock-wave force that cannot occur in a jet-fuel explosion, and the surveillance tapes capturing the collision were collected and never revealed with workers confirming they were told to never divulge what was on those tapes. Pennsylvania also has similar concerns with no bodies or plane parts being found. But never in aviation history has a plane completely disintegrated. Additionally, an airport in Ohio (I believe) has records of that crashed flight actually landing safely. The plane that hit the Pentagon was also never scheduled to fly on 9/11. Such inconsistencies are concerning and if there is nothing left to hide, such information should be revealed through a non-biased, private organization.

I'm a Junior in high school. I try to practice objectivity and introspection in any subject that i talk about with anyone and, while my own biases DO get the better of me occasionally, I never enter a conversation without first making sure I'm well-versed enough to have a legitimate opinion. My father was an engineer (and then CEO) for an aircraft manufacturer for the better part of his life, as well as a flight instructor, and he continues to fly airplanes as a hobby (not airliners, granted, but he has flown his fair share of those as well.) We talk about physics and construction regularly, but as it stands, the only technical education I've ever received that I can legally mention was a physics course in the 9th grade.
I remember seeing the implosion of the towers when I was only 6. At that age, you haven't fully understood the sympathy and humanism that left all the adults around me dumbstruck. You see that sort of thing in cartoons and action movies all the time. It seemed normal to me--except for how it looked. Even as a 6 year old, something seemed odd to me. When I poked the side of my jenga towers, they never once collapsed or imploded. They invariably fell over sideways. I even remember asking my mother why they fell so funny, and why it took so long (obviously a 6 year old doesn't know the specific details of the Towers' reinforcements, but had they not fallen at all, I would have been much less surprised). She avoided the question entirely and grounded me. Later, I asked my father. He was a bit less stern about it, but did take his time telling me his opinion (I only heard it for the first time last year. The opinion of a life-long engineer and former airline pilot-- there's nothing that could have caused them to fall the way they did naturally.)

I am a student in high school, I have been reading and watching videos of 9/11 for quite a while. I believe their was something planned and we need the truth.
The pancake affect of the collapse was not from a fire, it was from explosives. There are witnesses who heard explosions in the basement, not to mention the melted steel that would never melt at the temperature from the fire. This was, in my opinion, a planned event, their is no way that building fell without explosive devices.
