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 never seen skyscrapers free fall in this manner whether on fire, or impacted by planes or strong winds from storms. The official report goes contrary to the simple laws of physics.

It was surprising to see events unfold as they did on that dreadful day, given that the buildings were designed specifically to withstand such an event. I think that still there are many unanswered questions and an unbiased, independent and scientific investigation is the only answer.

I saw enough after about 45 min. into Mr. Gage's presentation to be convinced we have not been told the truth. Whatever happened to the dewatering equipment at the bottom of WTC 2 (I think that's where it is)? Does everyone know about the night club in one of the towers and the trenches on all of the floors?

WTC 7 - Controlled Demolition - - WTC North and South - Even if the impact from the planes and subsequent fire were able to weaken the main structural components of the towers there is no possibility for them to fall in their own footprint, at the speed of gravity, nonetheless.

I am a retired Public Relations Writer and I am willing to post my opinions on this matter in disagreement to the popularly believed storyline.
From my basic study of Mechanical Engineering, I can only say that the official storyline is preposterous; a building simply cannot fall at free-fall velocity without breaking the laws of Physics. And that goes without saying that the building was very well designed and could NOT fall without professional help from strategically-and professionally-placed controlled demolitions.

My expertise is in structure construction of bridges and to a lesser extent demolition of bridges.
The buildings fell at or very near free fall speed and into their own foot prints! The second airplane went through the corner of the building, with most of the fuel burning outside the building. Furthermore, it did not hit the structural core. Yet it fell the same as the first tower!!! Impossible !!

The official version never made sense to me. I anticipated that explosives would have been required just by hearing a description of the collapse on 9/11/2001. Quick calculations I made based on conservation of momentum trying to convince people the official explanation was false gave a 120 second collapse time for a gravitational collapse & 35mph to 60 mph lateral mass ejections which are not possible if only gravity driven. Newton's 3rd Law required the complete destruction of the falling top of the towers that should have left 60 stories of intact buildings standing after a gravitational collapse ended. Energy available from a gravitational collapse was insufficient to explain all features of the actual collapse. Core columns could be seen disintegrating in sections after the collapses ended. Steel frame buildings, by design and properties of materials, could not fail from oxygen-starved hydrocarbon fires. The buildings were designed to withstand airplane collisions of the 757/767 class and had withstood natural forces far greater over the life of the buildings. In short, I'm an engineer and understand the laws of physics and the official explanation violated at least 1/2 dozen of them.

I am a Real Estate Broker and mother. I believe there is sufficient evidence to investigate the 911 incidents. Please don't turn a blind eye to this horrifying event.
I have seen Dr. Steven Jones presentation and his films verify that there were multiple detonations happening at the same time the plane hit. I don't believe that jet fuel, can melt the amount of Steel that was melted at the twin towers. This is a Massive Scam on the American people.

The rapid and total collapse of the twin towers, and the unexplained collapse of the third tower, raise questions that have yet to be discussed in open and public debate. A new inquiry, conducted by men and women NOT selected based on political affiliations, can and must shed light into these areas.

This is marked required, but I do not understand why, as I have NO background in architecture nor engineering. I am a simple 63 year old woman with a BS in Educ 1965 (Major in English). I continually search for truth because that is the only way to obtain peace.
After reading Dr. Griffin's book on WTC 7 and reading several of his articles plus articles by experts (architects, engineers, physicists) and watching four different videos related to 9-11, there is no doubt in my mind that the buildings collapsed as the result of controlled demolitions. Only high power sophisticated explosive techniques could cause heavy metals to fly through the air and land with force on other buildings. Only by the use of thermate and/or superthermite (nanothermite) could the massive steel columns be melted and create a flow of molten steel. Also, the FACT that fire alone has NEVER caused any other building to fall at free-fall speed and turn into a tidy pile of debris must be considered if validity is to be a factor in the evaluation.

If we are to believe that an airplane could cause the destruction that happened on 9/11 then we have a right to prove that theory beyond a shadow of a doubt.

I have been studying and trying to educate for about 5yrs. I am a certified structural welder and have been working with steel for about 10yrs. I have also been involved with several concrete and steel structures.
I am not a scientist, but I like to think that I know steel. I don't believe for a minute that a kerosene based fuel is going to weaken any of the WTC buildings. I also know that an aluminum, steel and titanium plane is not going to incinerate in the Pentagon. I believe we have been lied to in order to cover up the fact that our government either executed these attacks or let them happen.

As a concerned citizen I simply cannot believe the official explanations about the collapses. It has never happened before in the entire world that steel framed buildings have collapsed due to fire. It makes no sense that 3 buildings fell at free fall speed and dropped into their own footprint on the same day. It would be to a terrorist advantage if the buildings had came down sideways as the damage would have been much greater.

We must accept, as fact, that the 911 and anthrax attacks were perpetrated by elements within our own government to generate a climate of terror; within which a global corporatocracy, using shock and awe capitalism and pre-emptive war could attack and undermine the sovereignty of nations, the international rule of law and the human rights of man, and erect a global police state structure to take its place, with the purpose of preserving this new planet-wide oligarchic structure.

I have drawn them diagrams, shown them videos of the collapse and asked them to argue with me if they disagree with what I am suggesting. They simply switch off and change the subject.
