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 been in architecture and construction for over 30 years. My primary experience was with K-12 public school buildings in rural Colorado communities. I am licensed in architecture in Colorado and Arizona and have a general contracting license in Denver, Colorado. Currently I work with a local developer on multiple projects.
Having reviewed hours of internet-based testimony regarding 9/11, I conclude the facts just don't add up. I have always been careful to focus on my discipline, architecture, and not try to be a structural engineer; however, I understand enough about structural engineering to question the 9/11 Commission's conclusions. I think it is important to review all the evidence and all the theories toward a more comprehensive explanation. 9/11 in itself was a sad day, but the aftermath has been even more tragic. We don't need a witch hunt, but we do need a better understanding of the facts to aid all of us to make prudent decisions for the future of the world.

Chemical engineer that knows enough about heat transfer and gravity to form his own opinion AND convince anybody of it that's willing to listen.
I know some first responders personally, the things they've described seeing with their own eyes aren't possible with jet fuel being the only heat source. You would have as much success melting steel with ice cubes as you would with jet fuel. Then it becomes a question of who do you trust, the first responders who gave and continue to give their lives, or the CIA etc.

I graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in electrical engineering. I was in New York the day of the 9/11 attacks and witnessed the destruction of the twin towers first hand.
Typically, when trying to scientifically investigate the unknown cause of an event... a hypothesis is formed and tested. If it is shown that the hypothesis cannot be disproved it can be considered a possible theory. Some theories are however, better than others. Theories are often scrutinized over and compared against one another. I feel that the evidence that has been presented to me regarding the collapse of building 7 opens the possibility of better theory than the one that is currently accepted. It is my opinion that a re-evaluation of the destruction of the world trade center buildings is needed.

..NYC on 9/11 was obviously the site of a controlled demolition. Building 7 speaks for itself. 1. Steel pouring out of the corner of the tower. 2. the complete evaporation of the core columns. 3. if demolition wasn't necessary for the type of collapse that occurred at building 7, demolition crews would be out of work everywhere....after all, you can make a building collapse to dust by just lighting a few small fires.....(sarcasm)

Just a concerned citizen of the United States of America. I am not A architect/engineer but I do have a lot of common sense. I have seen all the available video and to me it's obvious we are not being told the truth.
I'm not sure what brought the buildings down but any normal thinking person that has seen video of the buildings coming down can see they didn't fall from structural failure due to the plans hitting them or the fire they caused. At most the tops of the buildings should have fallen off.

I am 22 years old and have been studying this event extensively for only a few years now.
I knew on that day, seeing building 7 collapse, that something wasn't right about what the news was telling us. It took a while for me to get into the investigation, I only wish I had earlier. The worst part of all of this for me is the control of the media and the outright lies told to us.

After studying video of the collapse and hearing witness statements from the site one can only see and hear what truly happened that day and the official story told to the world is but a lie. This lie was used on America to usher in a long list of government deceptions from false war, patriot act, torture, mind control, to the introduction of CODEX Alimentarius and the list goes on and on!
All you have to do is make just three simple fact analogies and questions of what happened that day. First is a building collapses on itself it would take lets say one second for each floor to cave in on its self, so if the building has 110 floors 110 seconds would be the collapse speed of the entire building right...why did it take only less than 10 seconds for the buildings to fall? Second is that two planes hit New York but we have three buildings collapse? The only three steel and concrete buildings in the history of man to completely dissolve due to fire! Finally lets not forget 1943 Manhattan where a Military bomber plane flying over the city in a heavy fog accidentally hit the Empire State building causing not a collapse but simply fire damage and impact damage that was fixed and as we see the building still stands!

It seems to me totally impossible given the huge strength of the 'twin towers' (the re-inforced steel core of the building which seems to me impressivly strong), that these buildings 'turn to dust' albeit with relatively small peices of still intact steel etc. also making up the two storey pile of debrise that was the result of these collapses which collapsed in ten seconds of time or less! Given the very, very sturdy design of these towers I believe the 'official' story to be an impossibility.

Everybody was stunned when they watched the endlessly repeated news footage of that terrible day. I never wanted to believe what is now clearly evident - the story we have been told is either incomplete or just plain wrong. All we need is the truth about what physically happened. Recriminations, if appropriate, will come on the basis of that truth.

Evidence of all types exists and must be fully presented, analysed and explained in order to justify whatever is put forward as the cause of the collapse of the buildings and the deaths of so many innocent people. Americans must wake up to what their government is doing not only to them but to the rest of the world.

The official explanation is incomplete. There are many circumstances that have been ignored and many simple, sensible questions about the explanation provided that have hot been addressed. The official analysis of the circumstances of the structural collapse events contains many unreasonable, even irrational aspects.

Anyone with eyes to see knew from the first fall that these buildings were not brought down by two small planes (or whatever)...give me a break...lets hear the truth...if you can stand it.

I began to wake up in the years following the JFK assassination, which occurred when I was eleven years old. In the decades since I have watched the criminals become more and more emboldened, and it's no wonder. The secret hand behind our government is obviously covering up events like 911 and blaming it on terrorists.
As you have expertly documented the official explanation for 911 is fraudulent in the extreme -- unless there were different laws of physics in operation on that fateful day. The criminals who did this to us were probably dancing when those buildings came down.

Have seen 2 planned demolitions, didn't think what I woke up to on 9/11 looked like buildings collapsing from planes hitting them, rather more like the 2 controlled demolitions I have seen previously. Many reasons by Griffin, and the other professionals made more sense, at least to force an independent study. Major flaw in official stories (they kept changing) is that the crime scene was not secured...never heard of that before, more so in this one, because of more global catastrophe if we went again into war, not even having had an independent investigation. I have been upset and crying over this horrible morning, the thousands of lives at WTC, deaths of and of civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, and soldiers in this insane war, hate driving out or having arrested for driving while Middle Eastern-appearing. To me, it is flat out false patriotism refusing to get to the bottom of this tragedy - crime of century and our President had to be hounded for month to set up a hollow and useless commission as window-dressing. To help myself live with the horror that the aftermath of 9/11 I have read many books, signed petitions, written letters to representatives, financially supported groups seeking to get to the bottom, gone to hear presentations on witnesses, activists, educated professionals, and everyday people like myself who know in our hearts the official line is false...to combat what I still hear is that I'm one of the lunatic fringe....for wanting an independent investigation. George Orwell, here we are......Thanks for all your work on this crime of the century. Without celebrities, authors, artists, professionals, us everyday folk truly would be locked up by now. Profession and fame do help to share this with others, to give credibility somehow.

Four or five major airline planes disappear for over an hour, and no military craft was alerted, to intercept????? .... That's crazy. Twin Towers and a major security building all disintegrate and collapse. Turn to dust, just because a plane hits it??? That's impossible.

The powers-that-be in our New World Order (another false flag) know that so long as they keep the Sheeple perpetually fighting among themselves and with something new to fear ( 9-11 terrorists ' Iraq with WMDs ' predatory mortgages ' North Korea with nukes ' a Wall Street crash ' trillion dollar bailouts ' Main Street recession ' Iran with nukes ' swine flu epidemic ' a black President ' socialized health care ' whatever's next ), they will never take the time or have the courage to ask how the Hell it all got started ' or why. The staged events of 11 September 2001 were a pretext for global end-game Peak Oil wars, and since that date We the Sheeple have witnessed one of the greatest transfers of wealth and power in the history of civilization. Yet most of us saw nothing ' just like the 9/11 Pentagon videos that didn't catch the plane because 'it hit between the frames.

I am simply a concerned citizen. I never felt we were told the truth about that infamous day. Now, after watching your excellent DVD, I am certain the buildings were brought down by explosives and behind that is the greatest conspiracy of false flag mass murder of our modern time.
The data you provide is overwhelming, but there was one fact you presented and I realized it was right in front of my eyes this entire time. The initial leaning in Tower #2 followed by a symmetrical collapse was so obvious and physically implausible and I will always be greatly to you people for reminding me of this and I thank you for your courage. There are murderous traitors in the highest levels of government. If they are not arrested, I fear their next attack will be substantially worse in devastation.

42 years old, single and have been laid off four different times since 9/11/2001. I have struggled to find work since my last job, and fully believe this historical event is the reason. Six months ago I never would have believed this. I've done the research and know the truth now. I urge those that are on the fence to do the same.
The physical evidence supports the reasoning for a new independent investigation, and hope this movement only grows stronger and bigger. Our elected officials need to understand that this is an issue that the truth needs to be told, and is supported by the people that voted them into their positions.

I am convinced that planned demolition collapsed all 3 buildings. Dan Rather's mention of the demolition of building 7 was revealing. George W Bush's face in Michael Moore's documentary when he is told about the second attack is shocking. Why is he frozen and unable to react? Did he know ahead of time? Then the Bin Laden families were flown out of the US in spite of the country being a no-fly zone. Time to put all the pieces together. Thank you for this brilliant film.
