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 debris from the scene is far too small. The core of the structure should be found in large pieces. An investigation for a catastrophe of this size should consider all hypothesis and carried out by an independent, well funded team. The consequences effect all people in the world.

Upon receiving my BS in Chem.E. in 1980, I studied Linguistics at University of Michigan graduate school and have worked abroad as a translator of technical documents since 1984.
Because I consider the collapse of the three high rises at near free-fall speeds to be evidence of something else having gone on behind the scenes that day, most likely controlled demolition, even otherwise intelligent progressives consider me a tinfoil hatter now, most probably because of the recent National Geographic special. This is sad, but I believe that in time the psychological need to believe in the official theory will diminish, and the truth will be widely acknowledged. The most compelling evidence was broadcast worldwide repeatedly, ad nauseum. It will eventually be undeniable.

Where is the technical information on the failure modes of the core column supports? How frequently did they buckle along their length? Where is the photographic evidence to prove it? Did they ever re-assemble one column? Were there breaks in the columns, and if so, how many, where, and where are the pictures? Was the entire site, the largest crime scene in American history, photographed in detail as it lay after the dust settled? Why does the upper section of the building crumble as it falls?

It is obvious that the attacks didn't collapse the building. Apart from the view that jet fuel doesn't melt steel (let alone the very little amount of fuel with respect to the the vast amount of massive steel), there were sub street level explosions before the buildings came down.

When I saw the first building come down, live, on 9/11/2001, I told my wife that building was demolished by explosives and some other stuff. From that day forward, I have told folks that the laws of physics would have to be suspended for me to believe that the buildings collapsed because of a plane hitting them and a 'fire'.

I am a registered Professional Civil Engineer out of Lincoln City, Oregon. Born in Seattle, Washington, in 1978, I was raised by my parents who always taught me to seek the truth and to be honest with myself and those around me through all my endeavors. My father was the City Planner/Developer of the town in which I grew up, and he had a keen sense of the engineering field as well as the mathematics, physics and science behind it all. I'd like to believe that he passed that sense on to me and that I have been able to develop it through education and experience in the field. It is that sense that told me as soon as I saw the footage of those buildings collapsing on that fateful day that something was amiss.
Having aced a number of college level physics courses in my day, I felt I was being duped when the media/powers-that-be lied to the world in saying that the buildings collapsed due to the airplanes hitting them and the so-called pancake effect. Come on!

I am not an architect nor an engineer, but a professional in the legal field, a law clerk. I am simply interested in seeing truth surface.
Within 24 hours of 9/11 I had an article in my in-box that told me that the FBI was being housed in a hotel, in advance of the incident; suspicions were aroused within 24 hours of the tragedy. Truth always arises, and there is absolutely nothing hidden that shall not some day come to the surface. Was this a political ploy? I've read much to support that it was something that was pre-arranged by the government. Do I believe it? I believe anything is possible and that with power, well sometimes greed takes over and we lose sight of why we ran for office in the first place. People in power really need to guard themselves; it's so easy to get caught up in the momentum, the power!

Do they think we are complete idiots? It is obvious that the buildings did not collapse because of the planes alone. And the third building certainly did not.

As I watched the events that day I was in utter shock at what I was seeing. It kind of struck me as odd that both towers fell in nearly the same manner, but when I saw the WTC 7 fall, coming straight down like an elevator going down into the ground, I knew immediately that that building had been rigged with some kind of charges. I've seen too many shows about imploding buildings and I once watched an implosion in person. One of those they showed on TV didn't go off correctly and when the building met with the resistance of those floors that were still there, it fell to the side and did not come straight down as planned. So even if a fire could have weakened the steel in a few areas, it would have been impossible for the whole building to come down in perfect symmetry as WTC 7 did. It doesn't take much to understand how strongly these steel buildings are made. If they can take a powerful, direct hit from a large passenger jet, as these did, they certainly aren't going to crumble into small, manageable pieces under their own weight. Or as WTC 7 did, fall into it's own perfect footprint, in the way a demolition expert strives for.

I now loathe the current administration and policy of the US.
There is no validated explanation for the collapse of WTC 7. WTC1 and WTC 2 also are suspect due to the speed and manner of collapse. The concentrated jets of debris shooting out of windows 30 floors below the collapse front cannot be explained by the pressure wave hypothesis involving a progressive collapse. There is no real evidence linking Al-Qaeda to 9/11. The audiotapes from the cockpit have not been released. There has not been an adequate explanation as to why the planes were not intercepted. Something is being covered up and we want to know what it is.

I am a 26 year old accountant currently working for Deloitte & Touche LLP and going through the necessary courses towards obtaining a Chartered Accountant designation. I have 2.5 years in the public accounting sector providing assurance and advisory services to medium and large privately and publicly traded corporations. I also was a student in McMaster University's Engineering Physics & Management program for 2.5 years and I have a fairly well developed understanding of Newtonian physics, among other sciences.
The collapse of WTC 1, 2 and 7 all defy naturalistic explanations. No collapse in history that was driven by natural forces has ever produced the characteristics seen on 9/11. Their symmetry, speed and totality fly in the face of every explanation offered by any supposed authority. The discovery by Dr. Steven Jones of iron micro-spheres indicating the use of an incendiary device, as well as what appears to be unreacted thermite, is extremely valuable evidence that has gone completely ignored. The current explanation offered by NIST is both incomplete and internally inconsistent. To this day, nothing approaching a complete forensic investigation has ever been performed. The public deserves better.

Well what can I say. I'm only 26, and have no real experience in forensics or demolition. I only know what my eyes tell me. I am a Union painter and work in and around large buildings all the time.
I knew even as I watched the building fall that morning that they looked quite odd falling completely into themselves. Not too long before it happened I got to witness a building in downtown St. Louis be imploded. Lets just say deja vu was an adequate description of how I felt. An independent not-partisan, un-biased investigation is long overdue.

I am 36 and do not have any technical educational experience, only my intuition and my quest for knowledge. My parents were in DC on 9/11 and my boyfriend was almost on the plane that supposedly crashed in PA. My signing of this petition is to support the research needed to bring the truth about 9/11 to the forefront of society instead of the corners that no one wants us to go in.
It is so clear that it is scientifically impossible for the Towers to have gone down the way the media and the government said they did. I knew the very day it happened. Since then, having listened to, read and watched video footage, I feel even stronger that foul play took place and the truth needs to be made public knowledge instead of more lies and cover-ups.
