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 have 20 years of experience in designing large scale residential projects. In the capacity of co-owner of an internationally known architects office I have (co-) designed and coordinated various national and international projects. Being responsible from the conceptual stage to completion I have led project teams with colleagues from all over the world. In 2001 I was working on a project that included 2 identical 21-floor apartment towers in the city of Rotterdam, The Netherlands. One morning I had a discussion with the Fire Department regarding the fire equipment in the buildings. The firemen insisted that the capacity of the water-pump had to be twice as much as designed. They reckoned with simultaneous fires in both towers. I considered their demand to be too much, because in my opinion the chance of a fire in both towers at the same time would be so negligible small that a more economic pump would be sufficient. The firemen held their position. It was September 11, around 10 AM GMT. Less than 4 hours before the tragedy at the WTC...
The sudden collapses on that day surprised me, but I dismissed that feeling for almost 5 years. The release of the movie 'Flight 93' triggered me to finally do some research on the internet. After sifting through a lot of nonsensical material about the events of 9/11, for me the website of AE911Truth provided the most trustworthy arguments, leaving me with only one conclusion: the official explanation is a lie. And because of this lie the 21st century has turned into a nightmare for the entire world. I hope the alarm clock of truth will wake up all of us soon.

3 buildings coming down with 2 planes doesn't workout. The new stories of super thermite in the dust at four locations shows that the demolitions were planned. As an engineer with statics and dynamics classes as well as properties of materials i want to see the equations. Smarter people I trust will analyze these with a fine tooth comb. I is hard to hide from a complete set of questions.

As the actions that took place on 9/11/01 haven't never occurred previously it has to bring into question what external forces beyond those reported officially brought these 3 structures down in a corrective manner in the opposite direction of least resistence.

There are many well known questions to be answered: the speed of collapse, building 7 (and what it contained), then planes and their flight recorders, insider trading and their sources of information, and on and on. The most disturbing part is the handling of the material after the event. It should have been made publicly available for study by engineers and universities or anyone interested in researching and possibly preventing a similar disaster, but it was quickly disassembled and kept out of public view. I wonder if any of the material could still be traced into China.

I have a particular interest in the psychology of 9/11. Specifically, I am interested in the mechanism by which so many people have been deceived by the blatant lies that constitute the official story. Understanding the process of the 9/11 cover-up will aid us greatly in our exposure of the deception.

Occupation: P. Eng. (Geological) Retired
The engineering school at the University of Toronto awards B.A.Sc. degrees and M.A.Sc. degrees. I received the first in 1957 and the second a few years later. I've worked in mining exploration for 40 years. Throughout my active career, I maintained a membership in one or another of the Provincial Engineering Associations. At age 65, I was made a Life Member of The Association of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta.
In addition to the demolition of the towers, I'm most interested in the apparent non-airline attack on Pentagon. Overlaying the plan of the plane it becomes obvious that the starboard engine and wingtip would strike the wall at the same instant as the nosecone, yet there was no mark on the wall. The engine weighed 12 tons and was more likely than the nosecone to penetrate the outer wall. A diagram with the two superimposed might be the most conclusive to the general public.

Woke up to the news on TV. Asked my wife the date and then said omg 9/11. What an awful coincidence. Bought the 'official story ' until my own online research changed my view forever. I call it the day the government crapped on America. Pardon my French. Wow the karma they've created for themselves is astronomical. Let's get em!! History should be the Truth.

AA - liberal arts. AS - civil engineering technology. BS - construction management technology. One river crossing, and two highway over-passes as a form carpenter. Safety Specialist on the largest drawbridge in North America, Portland, Maine. Field engineer on two bridge replacements in Epsom, NH. Project engineer for a multitude of projects, including: several nursing homes (KY, CT, NJ, MA), two flammable materials warehouses (Kansas City, MO), heavy warehouse transformation to mixed-use occupation (Riverside Center, Newton, MA). Project Manager for two tenant fit-outs, Boston, MA. Co-owner, managing partner, Horizon Builders (residential construction), dozens of 'heavy-renovations', multitude of weatherization projects (Southern Maine).
Beyond the politics of who and how, it is contrary to my education that these THREE buildings could defy physics and collapse (nearly) simultaneously. I have long contended that, given the safety factors involved, that Towers 1 & 2 could collapse to grade elevation without the upper reaches of the structures toppling over. It seems for the duration of the event(s), the debris was being ejected *away* from the structures, thus effectively INCREASING the strength of the lower portions of the column sections. (Sadly, people who have no knowledge of structural design or strengths of materials will never grasp the significance of what I'm explaining). Also, the official explanation for Building 7 is reprehensible. The notion that a single column 'walking off its seat' has no legitimacy due to the redundancy within that structure. Columns don't walk off their seats, they're substantially connected with bolts or other anchors. In all three cases, the buildings seem to have been 'helped' to collapse to ground elevation, and within Thor own foot-prints.

Worked in the Oil and Gas Industry for 30 years and have been involved in many Refineries and Oil rigs and fully understand structural design, and with some fire training, I can not come to terms with office fire causing WTC 7 to collapse straight down. This is not right.
All three buildings were designed to the highest standard and then some, a structure that could hold three times the weight above, yet all three buildings fell to the ground! The ONLY reason WTC 1 & 2 fell to the ground is in a controlled manor. Two identical buildings that were hit by two planes and yet fell down exactly the same........not right there, then there's WTC 7 this is a simple controlled demolition...plain and simple. You can't even defend this, office furniture on fire and melts all structure in symmetry again it falls to the ground........add the explosions evidence and it's plain and simple. CONTROLLED DEMOLITION X 3.
