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's been almost two years now since the FBI Counter Terrorism division said it would look into AIA's findings. NIST still has the 9/11 dust, but won't analyze it for thermite- even in the face of peer-reviewed independent research that already has. What will it take short of a public gathering of supporters on the steps of Washington, or getting Richard Gage to be interviewed by Jon Stewart, Bill Maher (or both) to raise sufficient awareness and begin a formal independent investigation?

Fire on a few floors does not remove all structural support of a 110 story structure. Below the fire was unaffected steel and concrete with a design strength to support five times the weight of the building. Any collapse would have stopped immediately at a few floors. Instead we are told to believe 110 floors of structure magically and instantaneously turned into butter allowing the free fall of the building. Collapse cannot cause the concrete of the whole building to turn to dust. There would be a pile of concrete rubble in the building foot print or nearby. Instead 90% of buildings 1 & 2 are spread all over lower Manhattan as fine dust. This is blatantly not believable!

Employed by Boeing and for 5 years worked with the E4B Presidential support aircraft at Offutt AFB and was contract administrator for the maintenance of the 4 aircraft fleet and was responsible for negotiating the cost of maintaining each aircraft.
My opinion regarding the collapse of the twin towers leads me to believe that there were other types of explosives placed within the building superstructures and to be timed to be set off and detonated when the aircraft's smashed into the respective towers. I do not believe that the buildings would have totally collapsed just from the impact of the aircraft. The impact and force would have had to been much greater.

The TV clips showing explosive ejection of dust, together with photographs showing steel girders embedded in neighboring buildings are proof that the collapse of the towers brought about by explosions. The latest evidence of thermite residue adds yet more evidence to a case that is already conclusive.

The buildings, particularly Bldg 7, look like controlled demolition. Also, my suspicion is aroused due to the lack of airplane victims. And how about black boxes? As for the towers, I am amazed that the steel girders melted - they were built to withstand a plane crash.

I believe that a rigorous, independent investigation into the specific events of September 11, 2001, is necessary. The resulting accurate report will allow history to ultimately record the truth of what happened, and to identify exactly which people were involved, how they were involved, and what were their individual motivations for involvement.

The toasted automobiles at ground level surrounding the towers following their 'demolition' are the culprits showing that there was more to the buildings collapsing than just planes hitting them. NIST said that they never proved that the towers indeed 'collapsed'; a rather amazing admission. It's too bad now that our present administration wants to only look 'forward' which means that the 9/11 catastrophe will be all but forgotten.

I am in shock at the disturbingly inconclusive investigations that have taken place at tax the tax payer's expense. It is clear that the current official conclusions are severely lacking in their fact finding. It seems that the only conclusions one can make without a full and complete investigation looking into ALL possibilities is that the government is attempting to cover something that they do not want the American public to know.

I am a lifelong resident of Maryland. I would like to believe our government is truly for the people and by the people, however, more often then not we have learned that it is not for the people I have no technical education or training, however, I have worked as an administrative personnel in the construction business for the past 20 or so years. I have seen what goes into the structure of a building and am not convinced that the towers fell that easily after they were built to withstand an airplane crash.
I believe the photographic evidence as well as the fact that the original premise behind the design for the WTC was for it to withstand a possible crash from an airplane; shows that the destruction of the Twin Towers was brought on purposely rather then accidentally.

I'm a college graduate from Iowa, and lived in Brooklyn around the time of 9/11.
I believe WTC 1 & 2 were hit by planes, and were later brought down by a controlled demolition--I do not believe fire made those buildings explode and collapse. I also believe WTC 7 was also brought down by a controlled demolition, and the minute number of fires on a few floors could not have caused that particular building to collapse.

Retired after 35 years working in construction on all types of standard and specialized buildings in housing, commercial institutional and high rise construction as tradesman, foreman, consultant, trouble shooter and fix others mistakes.
I'm well aware of the extreme care that's taken to engineer buildings and steel ships to avoid unnecessary casualties in the event of fire, freak weather, catastrophic earth quakes and in the case of the twin towers a stray passenger jet as I took an interest in its design and construction. As I was working on steel high rise buildings at the time with blown asbestos covering the steel structure. Though much smaller in scale. When I saw the collapses of the towers the thought of controlled demolition came immediately to mind. I really didn't believe the planes could have done it on their own. Eventually when others began to question it, I made a point to investigate further and was soon convinced I was right in the first place. Now I'm positive that all three buildings are the result of deliberate controlled demolitions.

In some way people near me resulted affected, some of the dead people at WTC NY were workers from Mexico and specifically from Puebla and their families, until now believe that was terrorist attack but the explanation do not are accord to the facts, these people must know the true about this tragedy iat which their relatives died. But how a fire can cause a collapse of a bulding? The official explanation is not enough, no one building in the world had been collapse by fire, why the WTC buildings, with the best of architecture an engineering of the world came down?

I was first made aware of the problems with the official 9/11 story in August of 2006. My reseasrch since then has led me to the only conclusion that is rationally possible and that is that 9/11 was an inside job perpetrated by elements within the US Government with the possible assistance of other governments. A new investigation is warranted to find answers and prosecute those responsible
It is painfully obvious that these buildings were brought down by controlled demolition..forget about who or why...just acknowledge that it had to be an inside job...look at the media control to prevent full disclosure of the truth!
