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 serious doubts about what the government is really telling its' citizens about the 9/11 incident. My concern is with how the buildings fell and how many surrounding properties were damaged. It just doesn't add up.

With a scientific background and a remarkable curious nature, with extensive research and as a writer now, the news events of the WTC destruction make zero sense. This is only one of many areas in my research. To be frank, the amount of data load of nonsense out there (most probably deliberate), makes it more difficult for the general public to find the facts from legitimate experts when there is an overload of videos from 'what I call - famesters - clowns or eejets'. I am interested in facts and currently considering how to present many legitimate ideas to the Irish general public (opposed to mainstream TV which consistently bombards the Irish people with the press releases) - it's hugely distressing and extremely sad.

Irucka A. Embry graduated from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Tennessee, in 2004, with a BS in Civil Engineering and Minors in Environmental Engineering and Spanish. He also received his Engineer-in-Training Certificate in 2004. In 2012, Irucka graduated with a Masters of Engineering with a Concentration in Environmental Engineering.Since Mr. Embry's undergraduate graduation, he has worked as a Landfill Project Engineer, a Stormwater Investigations Engineer, a Physical Sciences Technician, and an Adjunct Professor in Civil and Environmental Engineering. Irucka currently works as an Environmental Engineer and owns a small business focusing on regenerative agriculture through a forest garden ecosystem.
Irucka A. Embry, through his previous research and online discussions, knew that a so-called 'terrorist' event would be happening soon within the United States of America on 10 September 2001. Mr. Embry believed on 11 September 2001, and still does today, that the official stories (conspiracy theories) about the collapse of the 3 World Trade Center Towers (1, 2, and 7) & the hole in the Pentagon, which was undergoing construction, were all unfathomable. Over the years, Irucka has moved from a belief in controlled demolition with (nano)thermite as the cause of the collapse of the Twin Towers to include the possibility of scalar energy weapons as the two Twin Towers turned to dust in mid-air prior to hitting the ground & there were steel beams thrust a signifcant distance from the Twin Towers. Regarding World Trade Center Tower 7, it possibly was an act of controlled demolition. We need a thorough, independent investigation of all of the crimes associated with the continuum of violence on 11 September 2001.

I could never see how any high-rise structure, especially the WTC, could fall apart and downward so symmetrically without its structural connecting points having been strategically blown out at timed intervals. I was initially stunned and just dumbfounded after seeing them come down in 2001 but had an uneasy feeling about the explanations given for this terrible event. I am glad to see architects and engineers coming together to lend their expertise towards finding a more rational explanation than what was provided.

I was forced to retire in 2002. I had a long Public Works career for the City of Kansas City, MO as a sewer and street designer and a plan reviewer. I college I had a strong interest and aptitude for structures and architecture. I have reviewed many construction plans for buildings and have watched construction of many large structures in KC. I no longer practice engineering but I have been researching 9/11 since it happened.
I have watched the construction of many large buildings and also have personally witnessed 5 controlled demolitions in KC. When I saw the towers fall on 9/11 I knew something was wrong and my first instinct was that it was impossible. When I saw building 7 fall I knew it was a CD. Why was there so many video cameras aimed at B7 when it fell if it was unexpected? Some coincidence. I have been studying this subject since it happened. I can find no evidence that any of the official story, even events other than the 3 buildings, makes any sense or is even possible.

If a building is falling down with nearly acceleration of free fall, the resistance of the mechanical structure had to be nearly zero. The sudden disappearance of nearly all stability in the structure of the WTC buildings can neither be explained by planes destroying some floors, nor be explained by fire damage. So the official explanation is in opposition to basic physical laws. It has to be wrong. We need a new report based on a new investigation.

Occupation: Aeronautical Engineer/Technical Consultant In Aircraft Leasing
My Education consists of a 4 year degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Limerick in Ireland. As part of my degree I was fortunate enough to spend a semester at Georgia Institute of Technology, on scholarship, as one of the highest achieving students at my home university at that time. I currently operate as a Technical Consultant, primarily to the Aviation Leasing & Fleet Management industry.
I have for many years not been convinced that the cause of collapse of all three trade centers in New York, nor the wreckage sites at the Pentagon & Pennsylvania, are the result of impact by commercial aircraft. I fully believe the overwhelming evidence contradicts the official narrative offered in the 9/11 official report, and I wish to show my support in demanding a non-biased, independent investigation as to the probable causes of destruction, as the people of the USA, and the world, deserve to know.

I feel that there is some very serious discrepancies surrounding 9/11 and all the events that took place. I don't understand the United States Government could have responded in the way that they did. When President Bush was in the classroom and was advised that a 2nd plane had crashed into the 2nd tower and that a 3rd plane was in the air that was possibly hi-jacked how he could have sat there listening to my pet goat.... There are too many issues to list here but I think that the US Government was responsible in some way.

English teacher resident in China. I have studied the 911 issue in depth from all angles and am totally persuaded as a rational clear thinking and scientific minded person that the official version of events is totally untrue.
Absolutely not because of fires. suspicious behavior from planted witnesses such as actor wearing Harley shirt, Pentagon studio guest with alleged aircraft part, SUV driver ( see Rick Leaventhal on Fox) etc planted engine parts at WTC Murray and small pieces of alleged wreckage at pentagon Suspicious immediate commentary from the likes of Jerome Hauer on CBS suspicious behaviour from foreign nationals in NY and evidence that firms with contracts to guard US airports and CCTV footage non forthcoming Body of evidence is totally overwhelming and I have reviewed official versions from BBC Nova and National Geographic and found them totally pitiful

I have attained no technical certification in any field. I am an artist, environmental activist and US citizen who would like the truth of the events of 911 to be investigated by a credible independent 3rd party and published for all to see.
I have been in many redwood forests where trees that were either the victims of fire, lightning strikes or fungus lie on their sides. The towers which were comparable to trees in stature came straight down causing no damage to surrounding structures. I find this to be highly improbable if the cause of their fall was the impact of the plane or fire as we have been told. The collapse of the towers was not natural.

Too many inconsistencies in the official story. Hijackers are alive. What was contained in building 7 not hit by plane, raises serious questions. The media coverage that day on all networks on a second and third glance looks really odd. The list goes on ever increasing facets arise.

Having viewed the DVD 9/11 Blueprint for Truth, I am convinced that a further investigation is needed. The theory of demolition vs. fire seems plausible. Why would the steel girders have melted?

There is sufficient (overwhelming) evidence that warrants a new investigation into the verifiable cause of the events of 9/11/2001. Until the truth is told about this obvious massive coverup, the Federal government along with its collaborators, especially the Congress and Senate, various intelligence agencies, and investigative media entities, is in my estimation a farce. Most of the rest of the world knows this. The leadership of this nation both public and private is a disgrace, to put it mildly. Thank you AE 911 Truth for all you have done. You are a bright light in a very dark America.

Spent 24 years working at the Montreal Gazette, 8 years externally and 14 in the circulation department, when Canwest closed our department to have it centralized in Winnipeg two years ago. Have since followed my passion of astrology and been self-employed, selling astrological products such as birthday cards and hand made jewelry. Am currently working on teaching an astrology class for beginners and looking to expand the reach of Astrology Montreal.
The first alarm bells went off for me when I watched the documentary Zeitgeist, which provided an attempt at a why. What followed were two years of researching the how and trying to sort out the information. A & E 911 Truth (along with globalresearch.ca) was invaluable in that respect. Nothing about the official theory makes sense - not the way the towers fell uncharacteristically and like none other, ever, in history; not the fact that it took years to investigate (when it only took 9 days to look into the Katrina disaster); not the fact that the 911 Commission ignored a full third of the evidence (WTC 7); not the fact that the physical evidence was hauled off to China at 800 truckloads per day illegally, and certainly not the fact that the implosion of WTC 7 was announced on CNN and the BBC 20 minutes prior to actually coming down. And these are just the tip of the iceberg.

I am a forty year old former teacher now working in marketing as a copywriter, graphic designer, and creative manager. I've been interested in the controversy surrounding the 9/11 tragedy since March of 2002 and have spent countless hours of my spare time researching it and encouraging other to do so. Other than my own small business I have no official affiliation to any group or political party whatsoever. I am a moderate but progressive political realist.
I believe the structural collapses of these buildings should be investigated purely on the basis of my own reasoning and reading. I have no technical expertise in the field other than a layman's interest in physics and 6 years of experience in interior systems construction that paid my way through University. I subscribe to no conspiracy theories whatsoever. I simply want to see a scientific investigation of this terrible tragedy and believe the conclusions from such an investigation themselves will show whether or not their has been a conspiracy beyond that proposed by the US government.

I am a 57 yr-old salesman - no AE qualifications - but possess a modicum of common-sense, have studied the WTC attacks, and am convinced ( thanks to experts like yourselves) that the official version is a lie. I am married with 2 children.
At first, like most people, I swallowed the official li(n)e, but having studied other events e.g. Kennedy assassination, in detail, felt something was amiss -- then saw Loose Change, 9/11 Mysteries: Demolitions dvd -- that was it for me. A small point -- I was particularly struck with the heart-rending radio call from Fire Chief Orio Palmer in the tower just before it collapsed , where-in he said the fires could be handled with 2 lines ( 2 hoses?) and I thought that the perpetrators would likely be listening to emergency dispatches -- I figured that if they thought the fires were doused then their cover would be blown, and maybe that was why they decided to demolish shortly after - just speculating

What i have learned in my engineering studies suggest that the truth about the towers has not yet been told. It simply is not possible that the towers fell due to the given reasons.
I have read about a missile on the second plane that was launched just before the plane hit the tower. Also evidence pointing toward controlled demolition charges exploding are around. I want to see what strong (scientific) evidence there is to support these claims?
