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.

Bellingham, WA
I have over 25 years of refining and petroleum engineering and project management and construction experience. I graduated with a BSCE degree from Montana State University in 1982. I was also a nuclear reactor operator in the US Navy prior to college. Although my degree is in Civil engineering, my career has centered on multi-discipline engineering design and the project management required for developing surface oil production facilities or refinery modification and expansion projects. I currently work for an engineering consulting firm in the Pacific Northwest. I have completed engineering projects for most of the major oil companies during my career. Typical projects range in capital cost from $5MM to $40MM.
The destruction of the WTC buildings had to be accomplished by a well-planned, designed and engineered controlled demolition. Richard Gage does an excellent job in identifying key physical evidence to prove controlled demolition was used to destroy all three WTC towers. The evidence he presents can be intuitively grasped by ordinary people and should be even more convincing to engineers experienced with the physics and engineering mechanics.

San Diego, CA
Occupation: Inventor/Business Owner
PhD Engineering, University of Pennsylvania, 1988. I worked in the defense industry from 1985 to 2001, and in consumer electronics from 1998 to the present. I'm a retired inventor and large business owner. I have extensive scientific and engineering background and experience, particularly in military intelligence.
From the simplest piece of information alone, free fall speed of collapse, it is not even remotely possible to suggest any hypothesis other than controlled demolition. In other words, it is already physically impossible for anything other than controlled demolition to have caused a free fall speed of collapse. The huge mountain of other evidence collected corroborates completely and further proves controlled demolition, although it should be the obvious cause. It was spouted all over the media for one day (9/11/2001) then forbidden and officially called a crazy theory put forth by aluminum foil-hatted conspiracy nuts. The official story claims a conspiracy, where the people involved could not have possibly committed such an intricately planned and difficult demolition. High level people in the military were needed. So the truth of controlled demolition was replaced by an impossible lie about airplanes and their resultant pockets of fire. In addition to being trained to be skeptical, I am so by nature. It was with this approach that I started to study the evidence of 9/11, one thinking this evidence is flawed. It did not take long to be convinced beyond any shadow of doubt that the official story of 9/11 is a planted lie, that three World Trade Center buildings were demolished on purpose, that the Pentagon was hit by a missile, that the Pennsylvania crash did not occur at all, and that the force behind all this horror is a small rogue but extremely powerful group within our own government: the Neocons to be precise.

I'm following the discussion about 9-11 by over 16 years after I was astonished about the official version. I'm sure that things went really in a different way from the official version. It's really important to find the real truth, at least If we aim for a better kind of world than this, so false, even on science matters, which should be, instead, so true and clear and simple for everyone. I'm sharing by years all the job the A&E for 9-11 truth movement did and I would like to sign finally just to help with a +1 and to show that an architect, big one or a really small one like me, should never believe to such ridiculous lies about structures and collapses.

I believe the government was alerted of the plan to attack the towers and did everything they could to ensure it would succeed far beyond the hopes of Bin Laden. I remember seeing an interview with Bin Laden, may have been BBC, where one of the party was asked, upon exiting the cave, Are you concerned about how the Americans are going to react? His reply was, T he Americans are easy, kill a few of them and they want to go home. We could fly large aircraft into their tall buildings. That interview took place some months before 9/11. Every war has been a setup.

I am virtually self taught as my education was interrupted by events after WW2. Books I had completed when I was 8 years old in India were dished up to me in Australia when I was 12 even though I was the youngest in class. I left at 14 and studied Ballet full time for a year before leaving for England. At 15 I was accepted into RADA [Royal Academy of Dramatic Art] London. Having finished the 2 year course, as it was then I was disillusioned with the theatre as I preferred the classics to kitchen sink dramas. As History was one of my best subjects and I was finding far too many flaws and lies I studied on my own in the reading room of the British Museum London. Here I could read Newton's works, Josephus and other great writers and come to my own conclusions which were opposite to what I had been taught. Although I would have liked to become an archaeologist I did not have the means. It was during this time I met my first husband and for far too many years had to devote myself to bringing up children. I 'woke' up again when I heard William Blum being interviewed on the ABC radio. I wrote down his name and finally bought my first book on the internet. He re-opened my eyes and I was horrified to know what had been going on for so many, many years. I subsequently read Edward Galiano's 'Open Veins of Latin America', and boy did I become enlightened then and no longer believed what I was being told. Although both these books have influenced me greatly I have read and seen so many truthful documentaries, many by John Pilger that made me what I am today. I am presently researching the Unsung Women Of History for U3A where I give courses on women who have virtually been either written out of history or simply overlooked. I am 76 years old and still learning.
It was the Frenchman who produced a documentary about the small penetration by the 'plane' 'which supposedly attacked the Pentagon that made me suspicious. Then my daughter's friend, who was in the SAS [Special Air Services] said he saw the second plane hit the second tower and it had no windows, so he knew it was a military plane. Then in 2008 I saw a documentary in Chile that told it as it was. The collapses and the squibs coming out. The 'hole' in Shanksville with witnesses saying there were no bodies and the only plane flew over and threw some heavy equipment out of the hold. However the FBI were already there walking around as if they were expecting it. When I returned to Australia I went onto the internet and among my discoveries was the impending visit of Richard Gage to Brisbane. I attended the meeting and was 100% convinced 911 was an inside job. Building 7 is the 'Smoking Gun'. Now like Pilger I believe nothing I am told! I do my own research.

I really do believe that getting your organization's explanation of the buildings' engineering facts, which provide the most excellent explanation that I am aware of of the un-likelihood that the collapse of the buildings could have been caused by fire as stated in the official report --- getting this info out far & wide is important, because it is among the most compelling reasoning's available today on the need to conduct a new, independent and credible investigation.

It is too hard for me to believe that three buildings fell straight down in New York City; Building number 7 was not even hit. We should have civilian's as part of the investigative panel. What country did we turn into that we can't investigate the murder of 3000 of our fellow Americans?

I am a recently retired San Francisco City clerical worker with only three years of formal college education, but consider myself self-educated and a good critical thinker with basic common sense.
After seeing the lecture and video by Richard Gage on the ae911Truth.org website , I don't think any reasonable, rational person could come away without the conviction that all three World Trade Center buildings were brought down by controlled demolition on September 11, 2001, and that it had to be an inside job. For me, the most important thing is for these facts to be broadly exposed so that the American people and the people of the world will force an end to the never-ending war on terrorism. Thank you for your good work, Richard Gage!

there is now way in the world that these three buildings could fall at almost free fall speed without and type of demolition assistance. lets be reasonable the path of most resistance is straight down! and how is there parts of the building shoot out laterally int other buildings and stuck in the face of those other buildings without demolition style assistance. get it together people....9-11 truth NOW!!!

I'm an American with no criminal record like most Americans. A skyscraper collapsing not once but twice in an identical manner is a controlled demolition.
Alistair Cook called the commercial airliners slamming into the World Trade Center buildings a declaration of war. The total collapse of the US security services on that day along with the buildings collapsing so perfectly into their own footprint speaks of a controlled demolition. It makes no proper sense. Something like that can only be subversive. Unless there is an explanation to prove otherwise. Also, what American will deny a gut reaction to witnessing that stunt being broadcast in real time?
