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 worked as a downhole completion specialist in the oil and gas industry as well as a petroleum engineering consultant. Currently I work in product development.
I watched the event on live TV. The loss of life and impact on society was staggering to say the least. However, the extent of the investigation did not match the magnitude of the event. The scientific method was not applied. All possibilities were not examined thoroughly. The final report was not peer reviewed. The final report should have been vetted by other independent scientists, engineers etc. Any scientific professional should be appalled by the blatant disregard for the code of ethics and conduct. It challenges the integrity of our profession as a whole. It is our responsibility as scientific professionals to stand up for the integrity of our profession. It is our duty to keep the public safe by using sound scientific and engineering practices. We owe it to ourselves and most of all we owe it to the public, especially the victims and their families, to conduct a detailed and thorough investigation into the destruction of WTC 1,2 and 7.

I am a Vietnam War veteran who served two tours, and have been a registered professional engineer for 24 years.
I witnessed the first tower fall and thought the symmetric collapse very unusual but thought with an exact combination of circumstances, it could happen, but the chances were the same as winning a lottery. When the second tower collapsed, I became very skeptical and remain so. The third building collapsing erases any possibility of this attack being conducted without on-the-ground support. I believe the air attack was known prior to the attack and used as a diversion to demolish the buildings for some yet unknown reason.

I cannot possibly accept the results of the official investigations of the collapse of several World Trade Center buildings on 9/11. The only credible cause of the collapse of the two towers and Building 7 is intentional demolition by preset explosive charges. This must have been done with the knowledge of some US government agency or agencies. The question is how high up the chain of command responsibility extends.

I was awe-struck with the seeming fragility of both the WTC towers. I looked with disbelief at their total collapse. I have always been suspicious about how easily and completely they both came down. I would welcome an investigation to settle once and for all what brought these buildings down.

WTC7 didn't fall by three burning armchairs. No significant debris ever to be seen at the Pentagon. Two planes flying around without control through the worlds most secured airspace without authorities taking them down. BBC reporting about a fallen WTC7 before it fell. There is no further evidence required, that this whole story was a plot. There is only more evidence required, for whom to hang for it.

I have seen several books and films on 9/11 events as well as seeing the events on the day of. - - The WTC and building 7 collapses appear to be a controlled demolition exercise. - - (I smelled a rat when the White House tried to head off an investigation of 9/11 events. It seems that the Administration engineered a broad cover up.) - - In spite of the fact that much evidence has been destroyed, a new, fresh investigation of 9/11 events and related matters is now required.

Graduated from Berkeley in 1962 - the beginning of the radical years. HUAC hearings in San Francisco, blatant government lies about Vietnam, CIA involvement in Central and South America, all these things make me very suspicious. The truth needs to be exposed. I'm perfectly happy to accept that no conspiracy happened on 9/11 if it can be demonstrated, but we must know the facts.
This has always seemed strange to me, along with the Pentagon attack where no photographs actually show penetration by an airplane. Whether there was a conspiracy or not, when the government hides facts and information there must be more investigation.

In view of the pervasive reluctance of officials to release critical evidence, the numerous scientific and engineering anomalies and research results regarding the event, an unbiased investigation is imperative. Anomalies include: uncharacteristic free-fall collapse of buildings, hit or not hit by planes, complete destruction of buildings specifically designed to take impact of large airliners, never-before seen collapse of steel-frame buildings due to fire, persistent molten iron well beyond the temperature of burning fuel, projection of massive debris far from the towers, upward ejection of debris, complete pulverization of concrete and, it appears, even steel, evidence of thermate in dust plus the quick removal of twisted, severed steel columns from crime site. These are professional technical assessment issues specific to WTC 1,2&7. There are a multitude of other anomalies, and a chain of suspicious behaviors and subsequent hasty legal and foreign policy activities with suspicious basis, all which strip validity from all the ad-hominem attack arguments and scientifically untenable studies which have sought to discredit anyone honestly skeptical. Truth and reconciliation came to south Africa. In the land of the free and home of the brave, justice can and must be carried out. If the government story holds water, those who advocate it would only be vindicated and so no objection is reasonable.

I've purchased every DVD I can get my hands on. I have made the 911 attack a priority issue to get the word out. A lot of people don't even know of building 7. We the informed people of the United States owe it to the victims and families to keep pushing until a world televised investigation of the events of 911 comes to be. I copy DVDs and give them to anyone who will promise to look at them. The videos don't lie.

Renton, WA
Graduated from WSU in 1995 with a B.S.E.E and a minor in mathematics. I now work as a software developer. I'm a proud new dad. I have interests in finance, and increasingly in an honest government that defends the constitution and helps ensure the America my son grows up in is as good or better than the one I grew up in, with liberty and freedom.
The building 7 collapse was obviously a controlled demolition. There was no direct plane crash, and a diesel building fire somehow caused a perfect demolition internal collapse. This was no accident, and to me, completely discredits the official report, and must be investigated and scientifically explained. I would like a release of any and all evidence related to 9/11, so the public can decide. There are many unanswered questions in my mind. How come raw materials from the demolished building are hidden away in warehouses, and not publicly available? Let independent auditors test metal from the wreckage for nano-thermite. Why is there no open scientific scrutiny and study? Why is the public prevented from seeing an analyzing the evidence? Why were air force pilots kept occupied training for the exact scenario (hijacking exercise) the day of the attacks? (air traffic controller saying is this real world, or an exercise). Where are the black boxes? Security footage tapes? Release the pentagon footage - all of it (there must be some hi-res footage not publicly released), showing the crash, to refute claims it was a cruise missile / inside job, and confirm it was a plane. Explain the Pennsylvania crash - why are there no large plane parts? Explain how black boxes can fail to survive all crashes. These are designed to survive, and yet *all* 4 vanished? This isn't possible. If it were, then there are serious problems with black-box design and a national redesign should be in force. Again, science to overcome this exact scenario (crashes) somehow failed? This contradicts the official report, and must be explained. Explain how diesel can melt steel. Modern material science is advanced enough to show jet fuel can't melt steel (1400 degree jet fuel fires can't melt steel at almost 2800 degrees), so how *did* it melt? Refute nano-thermite questions with evidence. Again, why does science contradict the official report? If it is eventually determined nano-thermite was actually used (contrary to the official findings), then go further, and identify who could have done such a thing? On such a massive scale? Undetected? Open up video security footage from inside the buildings to help identify the individuals involved, expose street camera footage to allow vehicles in/out to be identified so we can understand who could have done this and how they pulled it off. Motive and opportunity. Who stood to profit from 9/11? Follow the money trail. This hasn't received enough investigative attention. The whole affair smells of a cover-up. Too much contradiction with science, too many (easily answered) unanswered questions. If there is nothing to hide, why is all the evidence hidden away in private? All of these issues and many more need serious investigation, openly, by the public, which can only happen with access to the evidence in question. Currently there are too many secrets, too much evidence held in secret, preventing people from analyzing the evidence openly, drawing their own conclusions, and thus determining their own truth. Let's make the evidence public, so people can find truth, get closure, and move on once and for all.

The official story of 9/11 seems to be fabricated and it's clear that officials do not want to answer sensitive questions which upon answering may lead to further doubts of the official 9/11 story.

I have never believed the official narrative. Official statements and narratives have failed to bear close scrutiny. Critical thinking requires and needs a comprehensive and independent investigation. The official narrative has led to evisceration of the Bill of Rights and individual rights.

I am not an engineer or architect, but I am adding my voice to the call for transparency.
It's beyond time for the world to hear the truth of what really happened. Withholding information and protecting the guilty parties is simply unconscionable. May those with the power to open the vaults of information and order a REAL investigation of the facts, please step forward. Your courage and integrity will be rewarded. We cannot heal what hasn't been revealed, so please act now.

I call the collapse of WTC 7 the Al Capone tax evasion style goof up. We must concentrate all efforts on building 7 because it's the most obvious part of the lie, therefore best to awaken the conditionned minds. Once this happens, the rest should fall into place.

The truth will set us free: incredible discord continues between professional & non-professional folks & their views & reputations, WORLD-WIDE, and it seems the epitomy of human failure & progressiveness to not reveal the truths of all events surrounding 9/11/01, especially because it boggles the senses of the thinkers, that the info regarded as truth seems so impossible. Researchers have been tireless to try to explain, due to the simple necessities of future building projects, if nothing else. I have read & viewed everything i could on this event for many years, and continue to hope that truths will be shared, no matter egos involved, since corruption is & has always been a factor of human existance everywhere. I wish for maturity & truth.

I'm seeking to start a company in MA. It is for cards, and it is to help children in poverty. I believe this does need looking into because of the various composites of this country..and the varying entities. It has been specified by one or two people who know about these kinds of works. It appeared plausible, and I would like to see this looked in. Something just isn't right..
I saw some videos of it. I saw pictures, and I saw the layout of the buildings. I saw this on another site. The people were competent in their work, and they showed the interior of the building, and how the elevators were fashioned, from one floor to another..& how they connected at certain intervals. I saw a lot of different designs from the interior & the exterior walls. It looks like something is amiss. I just believe it should be looked into...
