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.

On that day 9/11/01, when I first saw the footage of WTC coming down, despite what I heard from the news, I had a bad feeling that something seems so very awkward and very unreal. Then, after I heard this campaign, I went to look at the photos of my old papers I filed from the 911 tragedy, it doesn't take me a second to think that this is the worst thing that happened in American history if proven. I hope we can get more support and evidence to bring the real truth. I sincerely thank all the people that gave their life, time and effort to dig up the real truth.

"No high rise has ever to my knowledge come down by fire alone. Larry Silverstein's words on building 7, ""we decided to pull it"", speak volumes. So does video on the scene of firefighters reporting explosions in the building. Building 7 came down at free fall speed right into its own footprint: a classic demolition. They could not have done a demo job that well on the spur of the moment on 9/11. I figure it would take a week of planning and planting explosives, not hours in the midst of chaos. I was at Michigan Tech about to graduate when this happened and it sent shock waves through my career and life. Our college in spring 2001 had the best turnout of companies hiring ever, and fall 2001 after 911 we had the worst ever turnout. I've had to work my way up through my current company by working on the floor, to where I now have a CAD/cnc programming job."

It's incredible to see and analyze the mass of evidence which speaks against the official version of 9/11. The official explanation for what happened on this day, in connection to all the open questions, is in my eyes absolutly ridiculous. It's not really scientific! Therefore we need a new independent and transparent investigation with an international team of scientists. Otherwise we will never have the clearness of what really happened on this historical date. Also, we will never understand the reasons for all the civil rights cutting processes, which have happend all over the world since this huge crime.

On Tuesday morning September 11, 2001, my wife and I watched WTC 1 and WTC 2 collapse from the rooftop of our Brooklyn, Clinton Hill home. We lived quite close to the East River. In the 1990s I was commissioned by Scientific American Magazine to produce a series of illustrations for an article on controlled demolition of steel frame buildings. From the first time I viewed the video of the collapse of WTC 7 I was convinced it was a controlled demolition because of the extensive research I had to do for the Scientific American Magazine article.

Controlled demolition is the only scientifically plausible explanation of the collapses of the three buildings. Recall that in 1945 a 10-ton U.S. B-25 bomber hit the 79th floor of the much older Empire State Building. The building remained and remains fully intact though 3 crew members and 11 office workkers died. The 9-11 investigations were scientifically shoddy and much important evidence was prematurely disposed of. A fresh and unbiased investigation is urgently required of this, our new Pearl Harbor.

I have a High School Diploma and work as a Server in Restaurants. But most importantly concerning 9/11, I have COMMON SENSE!
WTC 7 was just too obvious so I think anyone with common sense can see it's not fire, come on people! It's like people aren't using their brains probably because its too emotional, I guess. For WTC 1&2 I would say the same because they BOTH fell exactly at free fall speed. Considering the planes hit in different locations, the Chaos theory states there's no way it would result in the same EXACT way. Also, how is there no resistance AT ALL? AT ALL. I mean come on people!!! And as Richard Gage, AIA says, the building falls in the path of GREATEST resistance.

We have been told 9/11 changed the world. Yet, a thorough, independent investigation of this world changing event has not been conducted. The co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission, Kean and Hamilton, have stated publicly that critical information was withheld from the Commission rendering the final report invalid. This is outrageous and an affront to our form of government. The Congress must show courage and open a new, comprehensive investigation, seeking the whole truth no matter where this process leads. Without such, this nation and its government will lack credibility in the eyes of our citizens and the world for generations to come.

Anyone who passed even 11th grade physics should know these collapses simply could not have happened as they did without the proper explosives/thermal cutters in place. Free fall speeds cannot be attained with mass below interrupting the fall. Therefore, the mass of the towers was obviously removed ahead of the falling upper floors. I believe the whole truth will come out- and not too long from now. There's been a lot of progress made in the Truth Movement and eyes are definitely opening on a large scale.

I worked there beginning as a line worker, then i moved to robot operator and I finished as a cake batter mixer. I lost my job around November 2008 and I've been unemployed since. I've lived on the street, got welfare, and even got on informal probation for something I didn't do. I'm currently trying to turn my life around and be all that I can be.
From what I hear, the official 9/11 report does not mention the collapse of WTC building 7 or the secondary explosions heard by the people in and around the WTC buildings, both of which need to be explained. If you watch footage, which I think has just been released in the last couple of years (It's 2010 now), you'll heare many reporters, firefighters, and employees of the WTC talk about secondary explosions going off- from the time the towers were on fire until they finally collapsed. Now if these secondary explosions weren't caused by any kind of gas leaks or pipes being severed and exploding, then their had to be explosives planted throughout the buildings, and what can be inferred from this is that these three buildings were actually brought down by demolition. And if they were demolished, who demolished them, and why? Another topic I don't believe was discussed enough in the 9/11 report was the pools of molten metal found coming out of the higher parts of WTC buildings and also found at the base of the buildings. I believe the official report says it's just molten aluminum but doubters of the official report, who are scientists and others, are able to prove that it's not aluminum because of the color of the gas coming from the molten metal which is shown in footage of the towers as they were still burning.

Independent thinkers and researchers are in short supply. I salute your efforts along these lines.
I have never believed the official story. BOTH twin towers - the victims of crashing airliners? - and NO scrambling of US Air Force jets to intercept either plane?!? Plus, I HEARD those fresh, firsthand accounts describing the series of percussive explosions emanating from areas far below the impact areas and near the base of Bldgs 1 & 2. Great to see credible support from the Architectural and Engineering sectors of the need for an honest, credible investigation of what REALLY took place that day... If Muslim terrorists were indeed responsible for the attacks on American soil, it was not without the US Administration's complicity.

I have no technical experience, rather a natural curiosity for answers to why 3 steel buildings would collapse by fire in one day when it has never in history happened before.
There are numerous eyewitnesses saying they heard bombs prior to the Buildings falling and others near the Pentagon saying they saw the plane on a different trajectory than the one in the official account. The NIST didn't even test for explosives even tho there were numerous witnesses saying they heard bombs and explosions. In short, there are hundreds of questions in the official story/account of all aspects of the tragedy on Sept. 11. We absolutely MUST have a new investigation.

Numerous eye-witness and photo, audio accounts of secondary explosions and collapse effects indicate that Prof's Griffin's and others' concerns, followed by the non-standard investigation, payoff scheme, and crime scene compromise after the crime indicate a scenario that requires an impartial scientific evaluation of building failures and causes.

Not an architect, not an engineer, not even a scientist. Just a guy with a lot of common sense who knows when something just doesn't add up.
The morning of 9/11, watching the buildings burn, my wife asked if they would fall. I said 'no, impossible, if anything the top will start to lean and perhaps fall off.' The moment the entire building(s) came down I couldn't believe it. How? It didn't make sense to me but for a time I accepted the story and what my eyes had seen. By 2003 I was convinced something wasn't right and the 'official story' stank to high heaven. It took me a few more years to find people who believed as I did. I am a seeker of truth and know when I'm being lied to. The truth is what will set us free.

As a layman (appraiser), and not an engineer, I saw Building 7 collapse in a very different way than the towers. There is too much contradictory information involved, not the least of which is the BBC broadcast saying it had fallen, when it appeared to still be standing in the background. The lack of significant video regarding the Pentagon (I can't believe they had fewer cameras around than my local WalMart!) and the lack of wing marks and appropriate debris in and around the building are of great concern. We need a thorough and complete' investigation.

Idaho resident who has reviewed documentaries of 9/11 and feels doing an official investigation about what took place on 9/11 is more than warranted.
The rate at which the buildings fell defies gravity unless the use of explosives were used to aid the rate at which the towers fell. Building #7 could not have collapsed without the aid of explosives. Not reopening this for investigation is a gross display of disrespect to the victims and family of the victims of 9/11 when evidence has shown the use of explosives may have been used.

While being glued to the television, watching the horror before me unfold on the morning of 9/11, my jaw dropped as I saw the first tower collapse. My immediate thought was that it was a controlled implosion. Buildings don't just go straight down on their own. It seemed to me as though the floors above the impact of the plane would have toppled over and down one side or the other, leaving most of the lower floors still standing and relatively in tact. Watching Buildings 2 and 7 collapse the same way as the first was just 'too neat'. Also, noticing how quickly the 'rubble of evidence' was being shipped overseas alarmed me. How could concrete and steel below impact become nothing but dust in just a few seconds. Also, Bush's comment about the pilot hitting the first building being a 'bad driver' with a smile on his face, when God only knew the loss of human life yet, made me sick inside. I want the truth to come out and justice to be served.
