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 am a Civil Engineer-in-Training working for the City of Milwaukee. I have researched this event continuously for the last 2 years and have been interested in it for the last 4. This event took place on my birthday so I feel compelled to find the truth about what happened that day. So many pieces to this disaster don't seem to mesh with what the government told America and I want to find out what happened. If our government is this corrupt, they must have their own agenda and are not making decisions by the people for the people.
Even though Debunking 911.com says there was a hole in the south side of building 7, that conspiracy theorists did not take into account, it does not mean the building falls neatly into its own footprint. If there is a hole on one side of a building, the building will tend to collapse toward the weakest point, toppling the building over or collapsing in some sort of non-symmetrical manner. Videos from building 7 show the building, at the same time from all 4 corners, collapsing straight down into its own footprint, not damaging anything else around it. How does this happen if there wasn't some other element helping with the collapse?

As a leader in the fire rated glass and metal systems supply I have witnessed and performed many tests to ASTM E119. For 20+ years we have developed, manufactured and supplied fenestration and framing systems with up to 2 hour ratings. Having a pilot scale oven and running the time/temp curve in development of new products I know how steel performs. I was one mouse click away from being on Flight 93 so it only seemed right to fight what I knew could not be.
The actions of that day called me to duty and until the guilty are brought to justice I can not stand down. My sincere hope is that there are enough honorable men and women, like yourselves, to win this conflict. UL is scum for keeping their mouths shut and I hope they are held to account as well. When I saw the towers fall it was very clear fire was not the cause. It is great to not be so alone in this view anymore. Having been called everything from a nut to traitor for my views, I thank you. As a former member of the USN I swore an oath to, ...defend the constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic.

I am presently retired as a Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering, and currently licensed in both California and Washington States as a Civil Engineer and in Washington State as an Environmental Engineer.
After viewing videos of the collapse of both the Twin Towers and Building 7 and after carefully studying the Official 911 Commission Report and the technical report prepared by FEMA and the Structural Division of the American Society of Civil Engineers, I am convinced that the airplane impacts did not by themselves cause the buildings to collapse -- particularly for Building 7, which was never impacted by an airplane. It appears that internal explosives must have caused the buildings' destruction, and the American People have the right to know who was responsible for this horrific act.

I am not an architect or engineer. I have been a Project Controller in the Building and Development Industry for over 20 years. In my professional opinion would be impossible for the planes which I believe were remotely controlled from building #7 to have the ability to bring down the twin towers on 911 because of burning jet fuel on the uppermost floors. This would only be the result of a carefully implemented controlled demolition. It is also my professional opinion that it was not a passenger plane that hit the pentagon but likely a drone which was remotely controlled. The size of the hole in the building was nowhere near the size of a hole that would have been left by a passenger plane. Impossible.

I never believed the official story since day one. Three of us watched it on TV and all agreed what we saw is not possible. I understand what it takes to melt steel. I understand that lots of smoke means a cool limited active fire. I simply do not believe a small band of foreigners could so completely fool the entire US security system. I do not pretend to know who was behind this; but it is clear all three buildings were controlled demolitions. I suspect Building #7 was used to bring down the Towers; then demolished to hide evidence. The Pentagon story is just as un-believable/Improbable. An investigation must be started ASAP to find out what actually happened. Rocky M. Van Asten, P.E.

An American citizen born and raised in Maryland. I feel like it is my right as a citizen to know the truth about what has happened on 9/11. I've been lied to by our leaders for long enough and deserve an explanation.
I'm concerned about the timing of the collapse of the towers. And, also the near perfect landing of each tower as if it were a controlled demolition. The event just seems to perfect to have been caused by airplanes that would have normally disintegrated upon impact. Not to mention any fuel fire I've witnessed during a traffic accident seems to burn out rather quickly. The amount of fuel in those 2 planes combined could not equal the amount that is carried by a fully loaded tanker truck. Especially after having flown for 90 minutes to their final destination.

In my honest opinion, after a careful viewing of independent facts, studies, and also personally being at the site of a building take-down I believe the WTC 1,2,7 were taken down deliberately by means of controlled demolition. I have also seen Larry Silverstein's PBS interview that WTC was decided to be pulled, how could this have been done in just a few hours, it is impossible, it takes weeks of planning, and then some more time.

Towers fell at nearly free fall speed. How is that possible? 110 stories with no resistance from the floors (reinforced steel & concrete) below it. The floors must have been blown up internally. Jet fuel can not cut through steel.

There is no way in hell that all 3 buildings would collapse at free fall speeds through the path of the greatest resistance. Even if all supports in all 3 buildings melted at exactly the same time. The tops would have fallen to one side or another unless the bottom supports were blown out prior to the collapse.

I believe our nation as well as the world needs to know the truth behind the events that occurred on September 11, 2001. America should not only how things happened, but who was responsible. I believe everything ranging from eyewitnesses to the media and the Bush administration should be carefully and thoroughly analyzed/investigated in an aggressive effort to repair our mistrust of our own government as well as restore America's credibility throughout the world.
I have seen documentary films regarding theories of the Collapses and for someone as skeptical as myself, too many unanswered questions as well as controversial circumstances surrounding 9/11 have caused me to believe there is strong evidence that 9/11 was a planned and coordinated series of events.

He has also conducted seminars and workshops at various Italian and foreign universities and institutes as well as participating in group and solo shows both in Italy and abroad.
Ample evidence has surfaced since the events occurred which require that this case be reopened and independently studied. Substantial doubt about the 911 Commission's findings is warranted. This must be top on the agenda of the next administration. To advance credible, alternative hypotheses as to what happened without further investigation, however, is at best conjecture. We need to reopen this investigation.

I am a professional musician but prior to college achieved perfect grades in math and science, and was very interested in physics...it would surely have been my other career choice had music not been a particular talent. I have a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Michigan and a Master's Degree from the Yale University, where I majored in music and (at both institutions) took courses in the history of architecture. I also took a course in philosophy and the history of proving arguments. I consider myself highly educated, pragmatic, cynical...not easily fooled, and rely on instances of incontrovertible fact (scientific method) to support arguments rather than gut feelings.
It amazes me that Building 7 has been swept under the rug, and that anyone who thinks about physics in even an abstract or rudimentary way (separated from science or mathematics) cannot see the obvious impossibility that the towers pancaked in under ten seconds at free fall speed leaving no piles of pancaked floors whatsoever. From learning (on your site and others) of the presence of microscopic spherical metal droplets in the vast acres of concrete dust which are the buildings' primary remains, I concur that they were exploded with an extremely well-engineered methodology.
