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 a BS in Computer Engineering from Tufts University Engineering School. I believe that everything has a scientific explanation, and anything that defies a scientific explanation is either bad science or something that is not yet conventional science. In other words, if science can't explain it, either the effect is something that exceeds current methods of scientific measure or your data is bad and/or your assumptions are incorrect.
Seeing that the collapse of all three WTC structures can be explained with classical chemistry and Newtonian physics, any evidence of molten steel would indicate that a form of combustion much hotter than the burning of jet fuel caused the failure of the steel structure. When approaching maximum oxidation efficiency, such as in the inside of a jet engine, jet fuel will burn at close to 1500 'C, however, fuel burning under normal atmospheric conditions, even with significant updraft, could burn no hotter than 1000-1100 'C. The melting point of high carbon steel is about 1350' C, depending on the specific alloy. Even with prolonged exposure to the the heat of that burn could cause steel to weaken enough for it to bend and collapse under its own weight, it would not produce 'rivers of molten steel'. That sounds more like something that would have been exposed to a much hotter flame for a short duration, such as thermite. A rapid burn would also better explain the collapse that resembles that of a demolition. It stands to reason that if the twin towers failed due to steel failure due to heat, it would have fallen at an angle as it would seem highly unlikely that the entire structure at the burn floor would fail simultaneously. What is harder to explain is the notion that the collapse of the twin towers not only caused the fire at 7 WTC, but that it was enough of a fire for the building to collapse as though it were demolished as well. Finally, there is the cold fact that none of the gold which was in the reserve at 7 WTC was recovered. Gold doesn't disappear regardless of whether it was melted or not. Put simply, there are just too many 'strange' facts in this incident for the standing explanation to be acceptable by any person of science, regardless of discipline. The fact that the report was rushed and debris was removed from the site with what can only be described as haste, one has to think there is more to the story. A lot more.

I have collaborated with a research chemical engineer( P.E. in CA also) and he has worked with NIST reports that positively show that the jet fuel contributed very little to the duration of the fires and that in fact all the fires were very weak in historical perspective. They were oxygen starved as evidenced by the black smoke. If you dig deeper into the NIST reports they confirm that steel temperatures were low. I presented for continuing education credits at the NFPA World Safety Conference in Boston, MA 6/4/2007 My presentation showed that all three WTC collapses have no resemblance to any previous high rise fire, full scale fire tests in the UK involving much higher steel temperatures, or computer simulations using finite element analysis.

I recorded on VCR tape the collapse of those buildings the very day they occurred and have been able to review the original broadcasts of that day. I have recordings from at least 3 networks recorded that day. I accepted the official stories at that time without question. Only after reviewing information on the internet was I compelled to review my old tapes to confirm that I was not being pranked. My conclusion is that the buildings fell as a result of controlled demolition.

The dynamics of the fall of the towers is inconsistent with a fall or accident resulting from the impact of such objects as the two planes. The vertical fall exactly along the axis of lift the building may be merely the result of failure of nodes per share promptly induced dynamicaly and coordinated.

Structural engineer with 12 years of working design experience. Since 2010, I've been working primarily with structural steel & specialize in steel connections & fire protection of steel members.Chartered Engineer, 2009
Building 7 is the key indicator that everything about the official story is false. I work with a structural steel firm that produces 15,000 tonnes of fabricated steel a year. The official story leads us to believe that over 40,000 tonnes of steel, what would take us almost 3 years to produce, turned to dust. It's a ridiculous arguement & the more I look at the facts the crazier the official story sounds.

Based on the information in Blueprint for Truth, I find there is reasonable doubt and a need for a new investigation. After considering the matter and looking at the evidence for some weeks, it seems that there is much more than reasonable doubt and the truth and those responsible need to be found and brought to justice immediately.

Son of an architect and grandson of engineer. All my family is full of architects and engineers, expert in structural analysis and construction myself. I studied as all we do in Spain lots of structural analysis. My final project with and A score was about a tower in the desert involved in with the experts in the field. In my career in Yaeger and Jordan and in other construction companies such as CEC and OCISA (old ACS). I have collaborated in many projects mainly in the field of construction and restoration.
A friend of mine and I elaborated a model that could replicate the official version of the events in the computer, and there is no way that a commercial airplane could completely destroy into dust these buildings. Many events in the history of US wars have been based on similar events that the official version could never justify until the truth is exposed too late for people to care about. Just an unfortunate event that the mass media accepted as it is and that the people care less and less to solve (so there is a problem with the official disclosure of events that must be solved no matter what). Just the truth and nothing else deserve the people.

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.

Like many other people I was traumatized by the events of 9/11. I remember watching the WTC 1, 2, and WTC 7 building collapses on TV as they occurred and thinking life as we know it is over. This website revealed numerous key points I was not aware of. WTC 7 was CLEARLY a Controlled Demolition, and it's likely that WTC 1, 2 were also. The evidence is overwhelming that the government is lying.
