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 find it difficult to believe that the World Trade Center buildings collapsed the way common knowledge supposes. Every day, the trail gets colder. We need to have an independent investigation while we still can.

I am a licensed civil engineer specializing in water resources engineering. My engineering experience includes projects such as: pressurized irrigation systems, water storage tank design, canal structures, dam spillway design, water rights, SCADA telemetry management systems, soils testing, and design of reinforced concrete structures.
It is difficult for me to believe from a technical point of view that building 7 collapsed as the official report indicates from fire and debris damage. Portions of the building may have collapsed from damage however, the entire building collapsed symmetrically including the portions of the building which were in no way compromised as a result of the collapse of the twin towers.

I studied at Madrid Polytechnic University. I finished my career in 1989. Since then, 25 years, I have worked in building construction; many new buildings, many rehabilitated and some demolitions.
There is lots of evidence to indicate that the official version is very wrong. Images of crashes, and the numbers are handled in physics says what happened was a controlled demolition and not a collapse. We ask for independent research to clarify the truth of what happened on September 11, 2001.

I became aware of possible inconsistencies in the official 9/11 Commission Report in mid 2006. What raised my suspicions most were the discrepancies about the WTC 1 and 2 collapse, and the missing plane at the Pentagon. After hundreds of hours doing research on my own, I am more convinced than ever that we need a new, independent, international investigation committed to finding truth. I support AE9/11 Truth and their mission for truth.

I witnessed on live television the smoke of the first of the Twin Towers to be struck, and then witnessed the striking of the second tower. In my head were the words, ''They went and did it.'' They being nefarious, behind the scenes, persons and clandestine groups/societies that I have followed the histories and activities of for many years. The ''free fall'' collapsing of the towers and the subsequent likewise collapse of Building Seven were obvious controlled demolitions. I have taken ''heat'' for being one of those ''conspiracy guys'' for years. I have been taunted many times with the mantra, ''Oh - you think our government did it.'' I have never accused our government, however, I am disappointed in their lack of forensic investigations and conclusions. This attack was a huge false flag that, thank God, did not topple our republic.

I graduated with a BS in mechanical engineering from BYU. I have studied heat transfer, kinematics, static and dynamic structures, as well as structures of materials. I currently work as a design engineer at a top aerospace engine manufacturer specializing in CAE tool development including finite element analysis.
I have an analytical as well as gut-level feel for how structures should behave under loads. WTC1 and 2 buildings were designed with redundant load bearing members for the explicit purpose to be able to absorb impacts from airliners as this was one of many design considerations at the time. The buildings should each have remained intact for longer than was witnessed below their impact zones - if a dynamic failure were to occure with upper levels impacting the lower levels, each structural framework in each floor below would offer some resistance, significantly slowing the speed of collapse compared against a free-falling body. The rapid speed of descent as seen in footage indicates no resistance in the members meaning something more was going on in the levels below the impact and fires. The clouds of pulvarized concrete billowing out during the collapse also raises flags. The amount of the dust generated is extreme and its pyroclastic behaivor indicates it had been superheated which is not readily explained in a simple collapse scenario. When I first saw the collapse of the towers on September 11, I was just out of high school and had basically no engineering background. In my journal that day I noted how it looked like the buildings were being demolished like the old casinos in Las Vegas. Concerning the complete casino-style collapse of Building 7, this was simply overt and is beyond suspicious. I hadn't seen the videos of Building 7 until several years later, but anyone who watches these videos is hard-pressed to explain the complete symmetrical collapse of the building with the top descending at near free-fall speed as a result of fires only.

Since the 'attack', I have been perusing the credible books and documentaries concerning either the actual event or the greater political - intelligence agency - corporatocrasy - financial setting. Books like James Bamford's The Shadow Factory & Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine and documentaries like Zeitgeist - The Movie: World Trade Center & Core Of Corruption have caused me to doubt the official story (including the building collapses). We need to know what kind of world we live in.

Born in Denver, Colorado in 1954; I earned a bachelor's degree at Metro state college there in 1984--the head of the broadcasting department emphasized the problem of propaganda in mass media. I am interested in patterns of U.S. News media. Explication of events and circumstances like the wtc destruction.
at the time, the 9/11/01 incident in Manhattan seemed so orchestrated; I'm grateful to see that logic being pursued still. I would appreciate information on how to display the Richard Gage dvd publicly. thanks much for the lucid effort.

When I first saw the planes hitting the building I was a engineering student I believed and the media made the whole world believe that it had collapsed by burning of jet fuel.But practically the whole story of collapse of towers by hitting a plane came to me when started investigating on behavior of steels. And this website has even more reason to find the truth. Hope it exposes the truth to the world that the 911 was an inside job.

In fairness to the victim's families as well as every United States citizen - a full forensic investigation needs to be done to determine exactly what happened on 911. Not just in New York but also the Pentagon and Shanksville. Evil had its way and I don't think it was from the outside. Follow the money - building 7. Follow the Rockefellers...

The collapse was the result of controlled demolition and not the result of structural failure from the planes. I've watched many controlled demolitions and this is one of them.

I saw the documentary Architects and Engineers on PBS during the 10th anniversary of 9/11. It was such an eyeopener for me. I feel as though further investigation is warranted. I am disappointed that more of the general public have not signed the petition. I think they are unaware of the science behind the destruction of the towers.

I strongly feel that what happened on 09/11/2001 was an inside job by the Deep State. It sickens me that such people have such little regard for the U.S.A. and her people. I hope that the truth is revealed soon. The world needs to know.
