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 believe that the WTC 7 was a controlled demolition and that we must have a real investigation of all three high-rise collapses on September 11, 2001. I was particularly swayed by the evidence presented in the video showing uniform free fall collapse of WTC 7. This visual information is in stark contrast to the non-uniform fire and debris damage resulting from the north tower collapse.

As I observed the twin towers collapsing in real time it was apparent that 'there's something wrong with this picture.' A review of the evidence has brought me to the conclusion that the public narrative and 'official' findings are incorrect and intentionally misleading. Volumes of evidence indicate that the twin towers and Building 7 were destroyed by controlled demolition rather than fire. Building 7 is the 'smoking gun.'

It is blatantly obvious that all three buildings were brought down by controlled demolition. The buildings were structurally sound and there wasn't any propellant present to create enough heat to melt steel except those propellants added by the people that planted the explosive charges. The jet fuel would have burned off pretty quickly and the subsequent building fire would have been controlled by NYFD. No similar building has ever collapsed due to fire. There is also no proof that the hijacked planes were the ones that flew into the buildings.

It is apparent and obvious to any open-minded individual that all three World Trade Center buildings could not have collapsed in the manner described in the official report. All three buildings were obviously imploded in a highly technical and coordinated manner, well beyond the capabilities of any terrorist group.

In my view, the vertical collapse of the Twin Towers core structures could only take place because the structures' pillars and the corner pillars in one or more of the lower floors all at once were cut by explosive charges, thereby entering the entire structures above into a free fall, gaining sufficient downward momentum to make the structures below crumble. However, I do find it hard to explain how the core steel-frame structures could disintegrate and why the disintegration happened in the same way in the two towers. To me it seems likely that in an uncontrolled collapse one or both towers would have capsized with even more catastrophic consequences. As regards WTC7, it seems obvious to me that the sudden collapse was controlled, although the videos that I've seen do not show explosions in the lower part of the building. I have not read the official reports explaining the vertical collapse of the three buildings. However, if the civil engineering community cannot deliver a proper peer-reviewed explanation of these collapses, it has a serious professional problem. Explanations of major structural failures has always been essential for progress in the design of safe structures and in the education of civil engineers. Future textbooks on the structural design of steel-frame high-rises must contain factually consistent explanations of the collaps of WTC towers - otherwise we must admit that we do not know the essential properties of such constructions when exposed to impacts and fire. Which is clearly unacceptabel for the professional community.

I am the mother of two surviving children and have two grandchildren, and work as an independent real estate agent.
There are many troubling aspects of 9/11, including the controlled-demolition-type collapse of he buildings, the failure of the Air Force to immediately scramble interceptors (standard operating procedure in every other case of airlines going off course), the fact that some of the perpetrators were trained at U.S. Air Force bases (which requires top security clearance) when they were on the terrorist list, and why they were allowed to fly in and out of the U.S. despite being on that list. The fact that no measures were taken to shore up airport security following specific warnings about Al Qaeda plans to use airliners to blow up buildings as the World Trade Center, and that warnings from FBI field agents about the suspect pilot-trainees were also ignored.

The building collapses are obvious demolitions to anyone with any understanding of the natural laws of physics. Further, the entire scenario, as presented to us as true, is absurd and wholly unbelievable.

I am probably as much of an Average Joe as most people living the dream. That's why I believe my support is important to finding out the truth behind 911. There are thousands of people like myself who stand for the truth and expect it of our government.
I have had questions about the collapse of the twin towers and Bldg. 7 since I witnessed it on television the morning it happened. Just knowing a little about the effects of gravitational pull should lead anyone to question how, and why? I am glad there are people out there who have pushed for the truth about the tragedy, and we as a nation deserve the truth. This kind of support to find the truth makes me proud to be an American.

I was living at the next to Military installations. I am a business woman who knows what I saw and heard at that time, LIVE. I know the comments that were being made by new reporters/lay people/police/firemen All the people were stating it was bombs going off. By the afternoon it had all changed on TV and it was an airplane attack. Could not believe what I saw, the plane hitting was a shock, but the true shock was the way the building went down. I stood in awe, looked like a planned implosion of a building. I went to work and stated how it was impossible for a plane to strike a building and bring it down like that.
I stood and watched the TV as the first tower went down and saw what I believed to be a building being blown up, imploded. I thought the plane was part of the attack not the main reason for the destruction of the building. My first impression was the US was under attack. I drove to work and was greeted by many police vehicles looking at the over passes to the freeways for explosives. I never excepted the story that it collapsed like that because of a plane, then came the bldg 7. Never made any sense and you could see the explosions on the TV. Then everything went silent and you then got to see only what the media wanted you to see. I heard news reporter stating it was bombs, never heard again on National TV.

Currently a stay at home mom. I Worked in the mortgage and real estate fields before having children.
These were enormous buildings. I don't accept the propaganda that a jet could bring down a structure of this size and scope. Some people say that the jet fuel didn't need to melt the steel it just needed to weaken it. There wasn't enough jet fuel to weaken every support from top to bottom. Even if there was, we need to investigate why there was indeed molten steel at the base of the towers.

I am 23 and currently a culinary student in Denver. I have never studied architecture nor engineering but I find the topics raised in this film incredibly important so I try to educate myself as much as possible with documentaries.
My main concern over the occurrences of 9/11 is that the mainstream media clearly has not investigated this matter what so ever. I feel the only way to get the real story now a days is to do research online and to watch documentaries. I also can't help but think that if they can keep a story like the WTC demolished ions from the majority of the public then what else are they keeping from us that may be more difficult to prove.

I am personally outraged that the government has not taken a further look into this idea. Why wouldn't there be anything left? Something, anything to indicate that the building had any occupants in it at all. Why would the squwibs be so far down when that particular area of the building was not yet effected by the falling pressure of the building? Why were so many people lost and unaccounted for? And where did the money go? The residents of the United States and the familys of those unfortunate souls deserve an answer.

There is to much evidence to simply push aside, it seems more likely a controled demolition.

My background is eclectic and deep, including having put two businesses together pretty much from and with nothing... Having sold them in the mid-eighties; also, I spent a number of years in the theater as a professional actor (not smoke and mirrors, but including work on Broadway, off-Broadway, regional theaters, etc.).
It is incredibly obvious to any sane and intelligent human (not too many of those around, however) that the buildings were taken down by pre-planted explosives, not by the damage done by the planes. And although the implications are horrendous, they need to be confronted.

The buildings collapsed due to demololitions placed in each building should be obvious to any one with common sense. Why didn't the Pentagon collapse similarly? The original CNN and local D.C. video footage (which is now hard to find) clearly show that it was a missle strike... otherwise there would have been damage where the 6 ton engines struck the building... but not a scratch. It was an inside job... obviously. Mr. Cheney and Mr. Bush stated numerous times that they have the black boxes from flight 77 that they said hit the Pentagon. Since Flight 77 didn't hit the Pentagon... this means that they know where the plane actually went down.

Since the 9/11 collapses of the twin towers I have felt that the way that they fell could not be from the jets crashing into them. Since I saw the video put out by ae911truth, I learned that building 7 also collapsed. There is no doubt in my mind that these buildings were blown up!

It is quite obvious that these building were imploded. One building that was not even hit by the so called commercial jets came down in exactly the same fashion. There has never been a case of fire damage to buildings that resulted in an implosion. I believe that this was an inside job perpetrated by the American government so they could wage war (with the full and fearful backing of the world) against some fanciful terrorist group.

I will never forget seeing the World Trade Centers collapse on TV. I remember reading a book before September 11, 2001. In it the author, Barbara Marceniak, said to look for a relatively small event that would receive global attention. I knew instantly that the attack on the World Trade Center was the event that she seemed to have predicted. I waited almost five years before I ever started looking at the mounting evidence. I have spent countless hours reading testimony from the fire fighters, the family members who lost loved ones, the re-run of news clips, and now I am convinced that bombs and other explosives were planted in the buildings. It is still hard for me to conceive that this information is not main stream. I would like to see the Truth come out.

I have been taught to think for myself and believe the evidence of my own senses.
There are too many independent, honest, professional, experts saying the official reports are complete fabrications to ignore the fact that the truth has been one of the victims of this tragedy.
