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 think the main reason many people don't want to even consider the possibility (some say certainty) that the reasons for the WTC collapse is that it makes you consider the implications--the who/what/whys...and forces you to consider some ideas so horrible and evil that no one would want to face it. But reluctance is not a valid reason for not seeking the answer.

As a civil engineer I know that the towers couldn't collapsed into themselves without the execution of a demolition plan. Steel does not fail in that manner. Deception, lies, murder of American citizens possibly by our own government is something that revolts my whole being. Additionally this country needs to heal and no healing is possible without the truth.

Occupation: Building Construction Management
I have an Associates Degree in Design Technology with a specialty in Architecture from Ivy Tech State College in Indiana, as well as a Bachelors Degree in Building Construction Management for Purdue University. I have extensive experience in the construction of some of the largest and most complex steel structures in the World. structures such as The Crystals at City Center in Las Vegas, and other miscellaneous Hospitals and airports in Arizona, Nevada and California. I have a very thorough understanding of how steel structures are designed and constructed to accommodate all forces associated with live and dead loading, and I'm also very familiar with ASTM testing standards, and IBC and UL code requirements related to the fireproofing of structural steel members.
For the government and its authorized investigative reporting entities to claim that the collapse of these buildings was caused by fire and gravitational forces is impossible, and not only an insult to the intelligence of the American people, but to all people of the World! The truth must be uncovered at all cost!!

I have been a civil engineer and structural designer for 17 years. I specialize in handling claims when there are building and construction failures.
In all of my experience I have never seen a structure perform in the manner described by FEMA, NIST, and the ASCE. The presence of thermite at the site and the unfathomable free fall collapse of all three structures does not fit in with the 'official' story.

I don't have a theory in regard to who collapsed them, but I do know that somebody did. If the supports aren't broken as they begin to fail, the torquing which will occur creates shearing and much greater displacement of debris.

I hold a doctorate in computer science and electrical engineering. I have specialized in writing simulation programs for verifying complex electronic designs.
Video footage of the WTC collapses look suspiciously like controlled demolitions. I seriously doubt that the entire reinforced steel skeleton of either WTC building could melt and collapse due to the heat of combustion of the airline fuel alone.

Bach of Architecture 1970. I'm currently registered in NC. Founder of Sustainability Initiative at Little Diversified Architectural Consulting. Founder of Earthcrew 2008. Winner of Crosland Sustainable Placemaking Challenge.
There is no history of any high rise building collapsing from relatively minor (or even major) fires. The isolated damage to #7 could not have made the building collapse. Also, it collapsed from the bottom, bringing the entire building down on its foundation as would be entirely expected from a planned implosion.

I watched the Towers fall on September 11th and I knew something wasn't right from the start. I had worked for a Architectural/Engineering firm while attending the University of Minnesota. I tried to find all the information I could, and talk to people who I thought would question what happened. In the early days of 2001-2002, it was hard going to find people who would listen. I didn't give up, and as new material surfaced I used it to show people. Needless to say I have converted a lot of folks.

Although I ended with an business degree, I took all the core engineering courses while in college. I actually had more engineering credits than business, so I know engineering. I worked in the drilling business and learned much about steel structures such as derrick and their potential causes of collapse.
The data is overwhelming that a controlled demolition occurred. The lack of resistance from the lower intact structure as the building fell, the explosions and molten steel that are not explained, the evidence of prior knowledge, all point to controlled demolition. The only question would be one of motive, but after also experiencing the lies that got the U.S.A. into the Iraq war, it seems obvious that military presence in the Middle East by whatever means necessary was imperative for the Bush Administration

The authors are stating the obvious, the unthinkable. Controlled demolition of three occupied high rise steel-frame office buildings. The pain of acknowledging this is almost too much to bear. Those who perpetrated and profited from this horrific crime should be removed from power, forever.

I am a 62 year-old citizen who is currently an insurance inspector, and I am one who loves my country dearly. However, I do not like what I see going on with the current administration. The lust for power over everyone in this country, and the world, has got to be stopped. It isn't necessarily OUR president, but people who are behind the scenes (international bankers who control the FED) who need to be corralled and taken OUT of the picture. When does anyone start talking about those who schemed to take over our money supply in 1913?????? WHEN??
am a citizen who, without any doubt in my mind, believes that the very top leaders of our government designed the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Towers for the purpose of getting the Patriot Act pushed through Congress, when the members of Congress did not even have a copy to read before voting for this insane piece of legislation. This act of terror was, I believe, intended to install absolute FEAR in the minds of the American people so they would believe that their Government HAD to pass these new laws in order to protect us from any further such attacks. I will be willing to whatever I can to help disseminate the truth of this despicable and unforgivable act on this country, and I want to see those involved in this conspiracy brought to justice. If determined to be treason, then death should be their sentence. Nothing less will be considered satisfactory if that be the case.

I am very interested in truth: so many comments have been made by persons and groups that I do not respect regarding the 9/11 incidents. The truth must be available someplace.
The pictures I have seen have caused my curiosity to elevate.. I would like more information regarding the 9/11 incidents and what the future impact will be on America and me as an individual.
