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 applied for citizenship upon turning eighteen in 1982. I attended Texas Tech for 3 years, interned at Morris Architects for two summers but returned to Houston, unable to afford the next semester. I managed to find employment in '86 worked as a surveyor, married and worked in interior architecture firm for high-rise corporate and law firms until returning to complete my B.Arch at University of Houston from 89-92, where I finished 2nd in my class. Immediately employed with a residential firm and then on High rise multifamily projects at Jackson and Ryan. In 2002 founded my own firm now consulting on multifamily and medical high rise projects.
It was my gut response on that morning that there was no way the towers could ever collapse, but they did. I was personally embarrassed but feel vindicated on seeing video for the first time some years ago and then again today. The chemical makeup of the dust, the horizontal explosions, explosive projectiles and pulverized bone fragments are all clear evidence of explosive charges. I hope the full story will be uncovered once and for all.

I'm appalled to see what the truth behind the staged event of 9/11 is. I've been researching the event for about 8-10 months now, and all I can say that you have all the support you need from this part of the world. I live in India - and I can't promise big things, but I do pledge to spread the word among all the people who I think can make a difference.
Never again will the world tolerate such a neglect of value of human life. I'm a human being, for God's sake - my life has value!

Occupation: Engineering Graduate
Abdul Rasheed is a recent graduate from UK University. He always had a passion for electronics and that motivated him to get a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (Bhopal, India) to understand the basic concepts of any engineering field. After completion of the bachelor degree, he gained experience in Industrial Automation and Project Management of power plant renovation and modernization. Due to learning curiosity, after the gap of 3 years, he pursued Master of Science in Advanced Electrical and Electronic Engineering from (Leicester, UK). There he gained an in-depth understanding of industrial machine and 'system engineering and spacecraft systems'.
Based on the evidence available and the knowledge of engineering, it is concluded that WTC destruction was a planned demolition, conducted by powerful authorities who have the access to the building and explosives supply. Further investigation needs to be conducted and moreover, the US Government has the duty to provide all the available evidence to the experts for examination.

Joseph has been involved in the design, management, and administration of architecture and construction for over 30 years, responsible for built projects worth up to $2 billion. He is the former President and part owner of the construction management (CM) firm that directed both the $115 million Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District's ES Reconstruction Program as well as Murrieta Valley Unified School District's $180 million Capital Improvements Program, both in California, and was Principal-in-Charge for over $1 billion worth of projects for the Los Angeles Unified School District. In addition, he has owned and operated several companies, including CM, architectural, and a mid-sized construction firm in Los Angeles. Joseph offers to clients a strong background in CM, construction, architectural design, strategic/long-range educational facility planning, and technical support specializing in the management of multi-million dollar, multi-project capital improvements programs directing hundreds of technical professionals. Joseph began his architectural career by obtaining a Masters degree from UCLA's Graduate School of Architecture and Urban Planning. After that, he had the privilege of working with the world-renowned and cutting-edge architecture firms of Morphosis, Charles Moore and the Urban Innovations Group, Eric Owen Moss, and Daniel, Mann, Johnson and Mendenhall (DMJM).
When I watched the buildings burning, I was, of course, shocked. But when I saw them pancake down, I knew immediately that something was truly amiss. I know from the experience of being involved in the design and construction of high-rise office buildings that the pattern of collapse was just too perfect, and that the amount of debris left at the bottom was too small for the amount of steel, concrete, glass, and furnishings that make up structures of that immensity. Also, unless the destruction is carefully planned, there is always some weakness inherent in the construction that will make the building list to one side during a natural destruction. Strange, indeed.

Then I've seen the documentary 'September 11 - The New Pearl Harbor' from Massimo Mazzucco and read some critical books about 9/11. I believe that no one with a clean conscience can, after simply looking at the videos of the WTC7's fall, doubt that it was demolished.

It appears there is more to the story than we know or are told.

The American Public and the entire world are entitled to know the truth. In this day and age, truth must prevail. A lot of innocent people have already been killed and incarcerated. The whole world is in much worse shape than it used to be. Therefore, it is important we know the truth about this extremely tragic incident of history.

I believe the people responsible for the attack on 9/11/01 are still among us and have gotten away with the murder of thousands and if they are not exposed and brought to justice soon we Americans are in danger of not only being attacked again, but more importantly being manipulated into killing more innocent people in the name of retribution.

Having read Steven A. Jones' published paper on the subject I have reached a conclusion there should indeed be an independent investigation into the possibility of explosive charges such as Thermite/Thermate being utilized in the destruction of buildings on 9/11.

World citizen, 5 years ago, i begin to search the truth. First of all about the 911, then, i went on with the Afghan and Irak War. I made research about the relationships betweens wars, petroleum, money, bankster, journalists... I want the truth, we the truth about this global system. About one of the biggest lie. Madoff is nothing if we compare with this story... Let's ask the good questions, we need the good answers.
No comment, how the buiding number 7 ( where there was some secrets documents of the CIA) can be collapsed in a short laps time. Larry Silverstein perhaps will answer to this question, because he asks the firemen to pull it. But in my opinion, it's not possible to pull it so quickly. To put all the explosive, professional need more times , several days, perhaps several weeks, it depends. So why did ask this? Why did he won so much money with insurrance he signed two months before the 911, with the collapse of the three WTC buildings ? Explain us please Larry, we are listening to you. And why did you ask Larry to pull a building which wasn't touched by a plane, the fire was to easy to stopped so why ? Difficult to explain Larry isn't it? Perhaps, better you shut up, because if you talk, it will be jail for life for your incredible lies.

Most my life, I believed my government and press without much question. I've learned from 9-11 that most of their information are simply lies. Now, I question most everything. No matter the reason. No matter HOW they did it. Some in Our government murdered citizens on 9/11. THEN covered it up. They owe an accounting for their actions. Even if it seems they've gotten away with it- they haven't. They'll have to answer for it in the end.

I first became aware of problems with the official view of the events surrounding the collapse of the twin towers and tower 7 about a year ago. The evidence points to a need for a new investigation about the structural collapses and also a complete investigations into all of the persons and/or organizations responsible. Blanket Al-Quida does not explain the facts. There has to be involvement including those with access to and knowlege to use thermite and also greated access to the buildings in the months prior to the 7/11 catastrophe.

It's no doubt that the 9/11 incident was not only an inside job, but that Jews were involved with the destruction of it. Also, without a doubt, the United States government has been involved with creating smoke screens concerning events they want occurring so that others may receive the blame without calling out the REAL parties who are guilty.

I believe that there is more than enough unanswered questions to call for a new investigation into 911. FEMA and NIST have done nothing but destroy evidence and brush off crucial questions about the investigation. They still have not given the public a clear answer as to why building 7 collapsed. I believe that this is an important matter and needs to be investigated further. Those who are responsible NEED to be held accountable and I am not quite buying their terrorist theory especially since their have been a number of dead terrorists that have been found alive and well. THE TRUTH WILL PREVAIL.

I am a truth seeker. I am an educated person, with many years of experience in finding truth. I do my research and look at all sides of an issue before coming to any conclusion. I also require proof before I believe any theory. I focus on the history behind any event to see what led to its occurrence. I look for credible witnesses of the occurrence and those who have expertise in a field that could explain the occurrence. I then present the truth in a variety of settings. I believe that truth is the most important pursuit of my life.
In looking at all the evidence presented so far and the fact that there is many credible witnesses to these facts and that there are professional experts to explain the implications of these facts I have come to believe that the truth is that the 9-11 tragedy was pre-planned and arranged so that when the airplanes hit the building the explosive charges where set off to bring the building down in a controlled manner. I do believe without a doubt the government was involved in the matter and has purposely covered up the truth. I want a real investigation conducted with individuals that do not seek to gain monetarily from their contributions to the truth behind the facts of 9-11. This truth may reveal a awful fact that there are those in power that do not care about freedom, truth or lives. These individuals who participated in the cover-up and the planning of 9-11 need to be brought to justice for the deaths of those who were sacrificed for the plans of the ones who brought about this tragedy. May truth and justice prevail in spite of those who try so hard to keep the truth hidden and justice at bay.
