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.

The explanations expressed by the authorities responsible for investigating what happened at the twin towers do not meet the minimum criteria of the laws of physics, mainly in relation to radical crumbling concrete, consider the use of explosives evident outside the aircraft.

Having an extensive background in building before receiving my EE degree, I focused on antenna design, arrays, electromagnetics, OC network design, with some graduate work in VSLI circuit design. Now pursuing a doc. in med. while working full time. Will use the greatness of engineering to solve health problems.
Did everyone miss the 3rd building collapse? Steel made molten by burning jet fuel dripping off the side of building? Thermite? Columns cut with clean distinctive angle by what plane wing, god? There appears to be a flaw in the currently held expert opinion of the buildings collapse, the argument that exploding/burning jet fuel (glorified kerosene) can melt steel is absurd. And how exactly did WTC 7 collapse, just wanting to be like the other towers. WTC 7 defied all physical laws end of story. And how do commercial planes get lost for an hour? I thought we had the FAA handling that.

No building, nor any other structure, would fall symmetrically when hit from one direction. It would tip over because of gravity. When we watched the collapse of the two towers I did not think so much about it. But when building 7 collapsed the way it did I got vey suspicious. Good to see that some colleagues have discovered the conspiracy.

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.

Obviously, explosions can be seen/heard. I just can't comprehend how that can happen without explosives being planted somewhere.

I have degrees in education and social work, nothing technical. I just read a lot. I am retired.
I have read many articles and books and seen many videos on the 911 disaster, and see no way that so many coincidences could have occurred at one time. Impossible that the collapse of building 7 could have been caused by the fall of the twin towers - it was clearly a demolition job falling straight into its own footprint. Then, instead of careful inspection of the steel beam infrastructure - it was immediately sent to China! And Cheney just happened to take charge of NORAD that day and sent the planes that should have been scrambled to intercept the hijacked planes off on training maneuvers elsewhere. And how come members of the Bin Laden family living here were scooped up and sent home instead of held for questioning. Just a few oddities off the top of my head.

I am educated as Mechanical Draftsman, I have been working for about 30 years in the field of metal constructions and mechanics as a profession and as recreational activity and I can say I have concrete knowledge and perception of physics.
Even for me that I did not examine closely the collapse of the three buildings I must say that it was actually hard to believe that an airplane could take them down as it is being said. I remember when I saw the collapses on TV that its could have not possibly been due to the airplanes alone but with additional factors. There are a lot of questions about these incidents that have not been answered, and the fact that these are still deliberately stay unanswered despite a certain pressure, unfortunately gives mistrust feelings. Therefore I recommend a new deep investigation in order to get all the questions satisfactorily answered.

I have no experience with the structure of tall buildings. My work was in building and remodeling residential houses. I say 'was' because I'm retired.
I can only express my opinion, which is not 'evidence', so I'll just say that as a builder, I think it is impossible that these buildings were brought down by airplanes, as if the fire quickly melted the steel infrastructure, causing a freefall into their footprint all the way to the bottom. Don't get me started on the 'office fires' that were supposed to have brought down Building 7. Ridiculous. If the American public is foolish enough to believe this colossal lie, and I don't think it is, then whoever did this can do anything they like from now on, and no one will question it.

With 2 physics classes in High School I am no physics expert. But with 2 physics classes in High School I am not completely ignorant either. I have read books such as Max Born's Einstein's Theory of Relativity and have taken basic ideas from physics and applied them in my work ion construction for roughly 20 years. I have built the core of large buildings. They do not just disappear.
The owner of the building, Leaseholder Larry Silverstein, stated on camera they pulled the building. Why is there still debate?

I believe, through hours of research, that the official story of what happened on 9/11 differs greatly from the realities. There are too many questions left unanswered. Beyond the building collapses, which in and of themselves is proof enough of the need for further investigation. What struck me the most were the Freudian Slips that were made on camera for the whole world to see by certain individuals from the last administration. It is imperative that we discover the truth. To do anything less is unacceptable.

I am a public speaker, comedian, and actor. Most importantly I am a concerned citizen. A Washington state transplant I am originally from upstate NY. 9/11 affected many people I knew through loss of family or friends; it affected everyone in some way.
To this day I hear news that the volunteers are suffering from respiratory complications and receive no help form the government. We've been given no answers to what has happened with Building 7 and painted as Un-American for even asking for answers. Well today we are using our right to redress of Government. I've never been more pleased with my fellow countrymen then when I see them fighting for truth. We need a serious and truly independent investigation of 9/11. Building seven is an integral part of this endeavor. It's almost a decade later without our voices being heard and this nation can no longer afford to ignore this issue.

I am a Canadian qualified accountant and a Certified Fraud Examiner. I have had public accounting and audit experience in the UK, Iran and Canada. I have lectured on fraud and financial controls to members of the Ontario Public Service and have carried out major investigations on behalf of the Ontario government.
It took me some two days to figure out that the 9/11 caper was a fraud purely based on instincts. I did not have any proof but came to the right conclusion purely on common sense. It just did not register that a multi billion dollar air defense system could NOT intercept the so called hijackers? This delay, plus the towers falling at free fall speed and above all the fact that 19 Arabs were immediately blamed sounded too convenient. This 9/11 caper is not only fraudulent but the biggest farce of the twenty first century. How can the American people be so gullible? Have they lost their power to think and rationalize events? The truth will come out one day. I just hope sooner than later and then watch what happens? Israel will pay a very heavy price for what it did to the American people on that day. I encourage everyone to watch the DVD Missing Links and judge for themselves. Furhad Yaqubain

After being laid off back in October of 2007, I unfortunately had too much time on my hands. I began researching 9/11, which then led to politics... and here we are in 2010 and I just cannot stop!
It astounds me that many other large buildings that have been engulfed with flames and burning for periods of time equal to or longer than our buildings... DIDN'T FALL INTO A FOOTPRINT OF THEIR OWN!
