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.

It is apparent to me and other professionals I know that the official story and 9/11 commission overlooked and ignored any evidence showing the obvious cause of this disaster and that is a false flag event. With no mention of Building 7, molten steel or free-fall speeds of the collapse, leading to the conclusion that this is a classic case of the guilty investigating their own crime!

I'm educated as a mechanical engineer as bachelor of engineering, currently I'm technical advisor in tailor made machines and also responsible for structural calculations.
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.

As the developer of the modern EFIS for light aircraft and the builder and pilot of America's only homebuilt jet canard aircraft I have a personal interest in finding the truth of what really happened here. Rogue aircraft are nowhere near the level of threat that a planned and coordinated demolition is. The towers fell as nearly free-fall speed, which doesn't hold with high school physics calculations. Something moved all that mass out of the way, and in rapid sequence.

I have two degrees in architecture, one from Rio Hondo College, and a BS from Cal Poly at Pomona. I'm a licensed architect in California. I'm president of an architectural company with two divisions: 'MBA Architectural' and 'MBA Educational Horizons'. I've practiced architecture and have offered preparatory courses for over 30 years to candidates in the process of taking the ARE-NCARB exam and CSE exam as well as professional courses for practicing architects. I've taught at UC Irvine and some other colleges. I've taught in-training programs (ARE & professional subjects) for architectural companies and various AIA offices throughout the United States.
There is much to discuss about the events of 9/11, beginning with why it happened and who might be behind it. It was a major distraction from some events and announcements that were to take place that day; they would have revealed some truths about our world and some of the lies we have been told, among other things. We could also discuss building designs and how to withstand emergencies, evacuations, etc. The events shaped mainstream people's beliefs and prejudices; they induced tremendous fear in people and divisions between them.

The event does fit into the general scheme of things of how governments work and social systems work. We will not know the truth because too many individuals would be exposed. Those killed in this event are not any different than the soldiers in direct combat action. Our leaders are usually not touched and even the general population think that is okay.

Alex Wright is primarily an argument scholar with a MA in Rhetorical Criticism, yet studying argument and discursive interaction leads one into other relevant areas of analysis, especially when arguments contain technical information from the spheres of the hard sciences.
As mentioned in the bio, I am not an Engineer or Architect, yet I am an argument scholar. The egregious discrepancies regarding the destruction of the WTC complex between the works of Richard Gage, Frank Legge, Kevin Ryan, Gordon Ross etc. and all three of the NIST reports (2005, 2006, 2008) and the 9/11 Commission Report warrants serious critical attention by the masses.

I have seen films showing controlled demolitions. But the collaps of building 7 is the most perfect controlled demolition I have ever seen. So symmetric. Building 7 did not collaps due to normal office fires. In Spain and China skyscrapers did not collaps, eventhough the fire was much worse. Don't tell me that american engineers don't know how to construct buildings properly, because I would not believe you. Did building 7 collaps because of shoddy construction work?I doubt it! The authorities would never allow that. We need an investigation!

It's plainly common knowledge that, regardless of who did the acts of 9/11, these buildings did not fall to the theory of fire and jet fuel. To take upon the motion to assume Americans would buy this story is insulting.

Giving me reasonable knowledge of how the mechanics of things work.
Like many of us who can remember exactly where we were and what we were doing when we heard about the events of Sept. the 11th. I was no different. I ran to watch the news coverage. When I saw the second plane hit on national TV and then a short time later watch the towers collapse, I knew, at least I felt, deep in my heart, something wasn't right. That such a feat, executed perfectly, accomplishing so much destruction, in such a way, seemed to me - too perfect, no way, something wasn't adding up. How many old saying's go trust your gut instinct well that's what I'm doing, conducting extensive research into the events of 9/11, expressing my opinion with others, and informing and educating any who will listen.

I have a bachelor of architecture and a master with a subject in Architectural History.
I really question the way the towers fell, and the official reason for their collapse. Those who link it to controlled demolition have done a way better job at convincing me that this was done at WTC than those who say the collapse was due to the plane crashes. I am also especially concerned about the fact that there was no forensic examination of the attack/crime scene. If you compare with the thorough reconstruction done at some airplane crash sites that have made far less victims, the way the remains of the towers were disposed of is puzzling, to say the least.

Science relies heavily upon arriving at best approximations in explaining events. That said - I do not believe that the government agencies charged with investigating events of 9/11 have arrived at the best approximation which current scientific methods require. I really think 9/11 needs to be investigated.

10 years work experience in commercial and industrial construction. 8 years as electrician. My occupation gives me some knowledge of architecture and building design. I didn't however have to work a day in construction. To see that the manner in which the towers fell seemed to defy the laws of nature and conventional wisdom.
I must admit. I am convinced with very little doubt, that the world trade center buildings were brought down by controlled, planned demolition. The facts, possibilities and probabilities overwhelmingly support this theory. Buildings falling in free fall. (no resistance from below). Molten steel from fire? 1/6th of a building enough to smash the rest in 6 seconds flat? eye witness accounts of secondary explosions. building 7 free falling, never hit by plane, fire only. Science can not support these events. If it can please convince me. The only doubt I have that there was demolition involved, comes from the hope I can be convinced otherwise. We deserve an independent investigation, and real answers.

I dismiss the 'official' explanation of the cause of the collapse of the WTC buildings as a total fabrication of lies and accept, as succinctly detailed by Richard Gage, the synopsis of controlled demolition in its entirety. Questions of who did what, exactly how and why may be subjective, but the indisputable fact of the events of 9/11 is that the WTC buildings did not collapse as a result of aircraft impact and fire in the way in which we have been told - spoon-fed by mainstream media. Once this fact is accepted it then follows that a broad and audacious campaign of propaganda has been perpetrated. The correct information has been available to all governments, authorities, news and media organisations but, in general, they have failed to acknowledge or express the truth. Whilst many of the facts can be confirmed via mainstream media's news reports, to distill from this an informed and enlightened truth you will also need to conduct your own research amongst the prolific independent specialist websites and publications, else you will suffer in ignorance. Commence by gaining a full and detailed factual comprehension of the events of 9/11, especially the circumstances of how the WTC buildings fell. Don't allow your independence, security and liberty to be stolen. It will be a far harder win it back than to prevent it being taken in the first place.

I have an extensive knowledge and training in building design and construction.
It is my opinion from what I have read and seen that the 3 WTC buildings were destroyed by explosives planted inside the buildings BEFORE the planes hit them. I have a strong disbelief for the official findings of the initial, published investigation, and I demand another investigation be conducted immediately by a panel of non-involved architects, engineers from all disciplines, designers, physics professors and contractors from around the world.

With regards to the building WTC 7 in particular I have seen no evidence for the total free fall collapse of the building. Especially considering the damage was predominately on one side and the fires were sporadic. NIST/FEMA have not supplied any information that sufficiently covers this, and have not covered a wide enough range of testing. Also I have to conclude there was no material in the building that explain the temperatures recorded by NASA after 9 11, and the molten metal reported by the fire fighters.

I am just an average American that is aware of the things going on around us, things that threaten our liberty and security. However I am more afraid of my own government than I am of terrorists.
The largest smoking gun for me is the molten steel that firefighters saw with their own eyes, and the fact that a normal fire wouldn't be able to accomplish this without violating a law of physics. Special explosives HAD to be used.

Three fires in the history of buildings have collapsed due to a fire, all three collapsed that day, fell straight down at free fall speed, and was quickly shipped over sea's to be melt down.
