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.

Retired Staff Sergeant, US Army Data Communications Chief Satellite Technician, Technology Instructor As a US service-member I was assigned to a NATO branch in western Europe where I was responsible for the operation of a global data communications network. I received significant training in national defense strategies where communications systems where involved. I received an honorable discharge and numerous awards for professionalism, integrity and honor. I am currently an IT professional in an international company where I managed very large and complex business data systems.
Approximately one month to the day of September 11, I found myself pondering the recent news reports indicating the potential negative trends of the economy. Since the reports were vague but consistent, I began to ponder as to how they could be accurate. Using my past experience and knowledge as a former Professional service-member I concluded that for a foreign power to disrupt the national economy or physically threaten the nation. It would have to have the capability of bringing down a skyscraper in a major US city. Which, was technically not possible. The idea that the threat could come from within, was not unthinkable. But, at the time it was easier to imagine that such a scheme and it's perpetrators would be exposed. The day I heard the building was hit, I thought it was quite a coincidence. Less than an hour later, I heard someone in the office saying the build had fallen. I thought, impossible. Throughout the days and weeks that followed. I heard so called official reports that, based on my knowledge were either lies or crimes at the highest levels. For instance, it was reported that NORAD did not respond in time because the pilots were involved in a training exercise and was not sure the messages coming in were real or part of the training exercise. In training exercises one crucial elements is to exclude an element form the training in the event of a actual threat. Another fact is that in communications the training takes place in a network of data transmissions specifically designated for non real world training exercises. Either the NSA policies have changed or the NSA was a part of the event.

Although I am presently a practicing physician I did receive a Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering from MIT. I worked in the engineering industry for five full years before matriculating at Baylor College of Medicine in 1994.Part of my professional engineering career involved developing computer simulation programs for modeling the interactions between rigid bodies and terrain and propulsion systems.
I believe there are many more like me. People who vividly recall watching those beautiful buildings fall on live television. When it happened, an eerie sense of disbelief entered our experience. Yes, it was shocking, but something deeper was occurring. I believe it has to do with the disparity between what we were watching and some basic laws of kinematics that have been drilled into our minds from rigorous study combined with everyday experience. Those buildings fell like soda cans being crushed under a heel - except there was no giant above bearing down upon them. The only other possibility was a global, complete, symmetric and near instantaneous degradation of the structural integrity of each of the three buildings. The 911 commission report written by NIST is pure folly - not in what reports, but it what it DOESN'T report. I urge everyone to examine the official explanation with the same scrutiny that you use to examine all other theories.

It appears that there is more to the story than simply that planes made the Twin Towers fall. I would like to know why they were not better protected by national security and why were they brought down.

My first reaction to watching the first Tower fall on live television was that the building was imploded. Nothing that I have seen or read since has changed that opinion. The official investigation ignored most of the physical evidence. The official investigation also ignored the Saudi and Chinese connections to the event. An independent investigation looking at all of the evidence needs to be conducted to bring those individuals responsible to justice. The implications of all this are horrible. The results of ignoring it are even more horrible.

I watched the video ''AE911 Experts Speak out'' and from the arguments presented I strongly believe the disaster must have been caused by explosives, ''controlled demolition''. At the very least the covering of evidence and most likely erroneous report from NIST, in addition with the controversy in scientific reports between NIST and AE911 experts calls for an immediate proper investigation of the matter for fear it might repeat itself and for justice of the victims and their families.

I've worked for 10 years as a process engineer in multiple industries including, Iron and Steel Pipe, Pulp and Paper, and Nuclear Separations. My primary engineering role is now process control. I worked for two years in the Melting Department at a Ductile Iron Manufacturing plant.
From first hand experience, the process of melting solid iron or steel requires enormous amounts of energy either in an arc furnace or a blast furnace. We did not use hydrocarbon fuel or burning office supplies to melt the iron. There is ample evidence on this website to compel a new investigation: molten iron, chemical signatures of thermate, lack of pancaked floors, multiple eye-witness testimonies of explosions before the collapse. Mr. Gage and others like him are heroes for standing up for our country and telling the truth about what really happened on 9/11.

Saw the towers come down on CNN in luderitz, Namibia on 9 Sept 2001 - as far away from that world as you could get. Bought into the bush conspiracy immediately and thought nothing more about it until I was looking for some images of the world trade centers towers in July 2007 and came across the vast amount of info on the net about the incidents and the alternate theories (some very wacky and out there) to what happened. Then I saw both Richards slide show and Steve e Jones power point on the net and found the facts presented did not added up to what had been presented as the truth at the time. When you step back and have over view , what Richard is asking for makes complete sense. The research presented by Richard is sound. Buildings do not collapse the way these three did by themselves.

In my limited knowledge when something with so much petrol, hits a building it explode outwards and not downwards. The small amount of know there are a number of people and a large amount of money and secrecacy involving the planning of this. I believe going through the evidence and facts will allow me to locate key stakeholders. This was a very planned and motivated attack, it is just a matter of finding out who.

It would be good for our country to understand the true cause of this devastation. We have been drenched in lies, fear mongers and totalitarianism that have turned unconcerned Americans into uninformed infants.
Even before I saw the show on KBDI on 9-20-9, the voices of 9-11-1 witnesses were compelling. Earlier this week I heard a televised bit from a witness/hero, one of the last to leave second bldg to blow who swore he felt explosions from the basement before the plane hit from above. If everyone speaks out something can be uncovered but it probably won't be the American government that will be able to do it on its own strength; it's too deeply enmeshed in the coverup. The same tactics used on UFO belief-- ridicule and eye rolling -- will prevail until the majority manage to be strong enough to distrust the distorted mainstream media.

There is overwhelming circumstantial evidence surrounding the collapse of the WTC buildings which directly contradicts the official government explanation. The fact that 3 steel reinforced skyscrapers all totally collapsed into their own footprint and at the near free fall speed of gravity should be enough for to warrant a public inquiry.

There are many significant, questions left unanswered by the cursory investigation of the events of 9/11. I am concerned that WTC1, WTC2 and WTC7 collapsed nearly as rapidly as we would expect in a free fall. That means that their structural supports were destroyed simultaneously, which is what we would expect from a controlled demolition attack. Also, how did WTC7 collapse although no plane struck it? The 9/11 Commission could not answer these questions. Finally, how can we explain the presence of Nano-thermite, an Explosive Material found in 9/11 Dust? Since their presence indicates that the buildings were destroyed in a controlled demolition, we need a real investigation to determine how the buildings fell, resolving the apparent coverup of the 9/11 events.

Extensive reading of reports, especially information including photos and videos of the melted condition of the steel beams and the molten metal do not support the NIST conclusions. From years of working with steel as a welder, as a blacksmith, as a designer and builder, steel simply does not melt in fires without temperatures far beyond what was possible in the WTC event. Also for not one, but for three buildings to collapse at near free fall rates and stay largely within their footprint suggests something very different than the NIST conclusion.

jet fuel cannot melt steel. witnesses were saying there were secondary explosions that went off in the building after the planes hit. this list could go on forever.

I have attended several 9/11 Truth conferences. My parents do not believe anything about conspiracies which would have given me more of a tendency to not believe. But truth always conquers evil. If you study the evidence put forth by the Official story & then study the evidence put forth by 9/11 truthers, there is no comparison, the real story is obvious, the buildings did not collapse, they were brought down by demolition explosives. a 5 year old could tell the difference.

I was born in the United States and am of both non-Israeli Middle Eastern and Euro-American descent. I have always had an interest in the beauty of historical architecture, but this admiration of the superficial details forced me to begin understanding how buildings work structurally. Unfortunately, the political scene is hard for me to escape, but I know I've got friends here in America. I earned a minor in Political Science during my studies and thoroughly studied propaganda and wartime tactics used by various nations. I've been recently studying architecture and steel-framed buildings after a bad experience I had trying to restore an older home that will soon be rendered unusable due to an inadequate foundation, poor drainage, and termite and fungal rot. I've been reading construction textbooks by authors such as Joseph Iano. I've also been interested in Japanese sword-making, and this is how I first became acquainted with steelworking. Also, as a history student, I well understand the historical difficulties of heating steel and working it. Prior to the mass use of coal-fired blast furnaces, steel material was simply too hard to heat and shape on a large scale! I suppose I've always had some sort of interest in understanding how things work, and although I feel rather slow at reaching discoveries, I'm successful because I don't give up until I know what's going on!
Although the aircraft used were large, their flimsy aluminum bodies could not have possibly severed through steel and concrete columns. The heat from the jet-fuel explosion would have been intense, but it's not likely enough energy was put out to melt that much steel. The explosion would not have been a forceful blast, so to speak; it would have been more like a scorching flame-thrower, I'd say. The large opening created by the crash would have allowed tremendous heat to escape in those elevated, windy conditions. Try heating your house with a big window open! If the crash and fire had been enough to cause a structural collapse, I believe the result would have looked quite different, with the load of the upper floors being shed off to the sides rather than straight down the floors. The initial points of collapse would likely have been around and right above the crash site, with later subsequent collapsing in other areas. What we saw on 9/11 was a full disintegration of multiple structural points at a nearly simultaneous occurrence. The result was neatly collapsed buildings that didn't spill over far at all considering the size. Nor was there a large heap of building materials left over. What was dispersed over a large area was dust. I saw dust here in WV the next day or two after! How did concrete and steel get reduced to nothing more than dust in a blink of an eye? That's a lot of work done for such a little effort given. I don't understand much about thermite-type explosives, but it seems like the stuff that may have been able to do it.

In my opinion the collapse of all buildings involved in the tragedy of September 11th were all too clean, meaning having seen controlled demolitions on TV I am interested in seeing an investigation by engineers and architects independent from government agencies.

NO DOUBT THAT FOWL PLAY HAPPENED. I WAS ALWAYS WONDERING HOW BOTH TOWERS COULD COLLAPSE DESPITE THE STRUCTURE SHOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO TAKE A HIT FROM A PASSENGER AIRCRAFT. SURELY DESIGNERS MUST HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS BEFORE CONSTRUCTION. AND THE WAY THE BUILDINGS COLLAPSED. DID NOT LOOK LIKE STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS.

From day one my observation of the symmetry of the tower collapses made no sense: two planes striking at radically different locations could NOT have caused nearly identical falling straight down toward path of most resistance.(I applaud Gage for his excellent description of this as well) Also, the pancake explanation made no sense when observing that so much matter was flung outward, and certainly pancaking would be exhibited by a staccato and relatively slow downward series of collapses as the descent occurred.

All 3 buildings where carefully rigged during the elevator maintenance weeks before 9/11 with nano-thermite. Video evidence of the south tower just minutes before collapse shows molten metal dripping down from the tower. The buildings where deliberately weakened to cause a collapse. The pools of molten metal, leaving the debris burning for weeks after the collapse could never ever be caused by a simple office fire started by burning jet fuel. The buildings fell into their own footprint just like controlled demolitions. Steel support beams where blasted into nearby buildings with forces that could never exist in a normal collapse. And perhaps most important of all, if something falls down, or collapses for that matter, it always seeks the way with the least resistance.
