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 studied and graduated with a Civil Engineering degree focused in structures at Penn State University.
A uniform collapse of a building over its full width and length at free fall acceleration for 8 stories (as was noted by NIST for building #7), is more than likely not a product of office fires. To achieve this one would need simultaneous and almost instantaneous failures of all supporting columns in a building. The finding of iron microspheres and unignited material which has the signature of nano-thermite based on a team of international scientists (including nano-Chemist Niels Harrit with 60 scientific papers published in the best journals) is equally disturbing and merits an independent investigation into all 3 buildings.

Architecture & Engineering - freelance living on an island in the South of Europe. I try to grow my own profession mediating with downsized construction activity and a generally reactionary thought about architecture. I dream to build a lot, but also help to develop people's attention to the matter of fine architecture in the places where we spend life.
Since the first time I saw first footages that day (I was 17), my thought was that the way the towers came down was very strange. Now I think, as lot of you, to know exactly why. At 15 years of distance we sadly learn that 9-11 was the beginning of a worldwide war escalation and the WTC was a way like any other to prepare people for that. Also the demolition of towers has been big bussiness for few.

Video suggests building 7 collapsed due to structural failure at or near ground level and in a totally controlled manner. A normal fire alone could not cause this. I would imagine it is very unlikely aviation fuel in such a quantity from the crashed aircraft would find its way to building 7 and fuel any fire.The adjacent towers had a totally different failure mechanism

Standard engineering background. Trained to gather information and form decisions based on that information. Worked in various industries and am now self-employed.
The building collapses were initially suspicious but I accepted the theory for several years. I stumbled on Loose Change on the web and really watched the collapses. I noted the time it took for the buildings to fall. I saw the squibs. I learned the BBC reported WTC 7 collapse BEFORE it happened. I saw the lack of plane wreckage at the Pentagon. I read about Operation North Woods. All of this added up to a different explanation than what we were told.

I moved to Israel 3 months ago. I was born and raised in America and I am still a US citizen. I love the country of my birth very much, but the new administration leaves a LOT to be desired! I strongly believe that the 9/11 tragedy needs to be more thoroughly investigated. Those who lost their lives or their loved ones deserve some sort of resolution to this unforgettable, disastrous time in their lives.
When I arrived at work the morning of Sept 11, 2001, I was in shock, since I had just heard the tragic news on the radio that the twin towers were attacked by planes! A fellow worker was able to videotape the news report and we watched it in utter horror! Never in my life had I seen such devastation in just minutes! What really struck me, was how the towers just collapsed on their foundations like a stack of cards!

Impossible. I would also like a further enquiry into the free fall of these buildings. Also can somebody tell me why I can see explosions from the building as they fall. And why do they both fall and not tople over?

I have been in engineering since 1989, the bulk of which with Rolls Royce. The doubts surrounding 9/11 'truths have always fascinated me, and I think it is one example that should get EVERYONE thinking 'outside the box.
The footage and straightforward explanations put forward by you guys must surely be enough to make any level headed person just stop for a moment and think, Hey yeah, wait a minute. The biggest 'loaded gun' for me was Larry Silverstein's lets pull it statement. (Interestingly, number 1 result when you google, 'lets pull it'). More power to you guys, and let's get the truth.

I am a certified technical engineer with over 27 years' experience in troubleshooting electrical and mechanical problems.
My electrical and mechanical training requires me to understand resistance. This knowledge enabled me to conclude that buildings can not collapse in near free fall speed, for the structure itself would cause resistance to the collapse itself.

I have followed the events and aftermath of 9/11 for all of the intervening years. I am not formally trained in science but one does not need to be to understand the evidence. The irrefutable presence of nano-thermite in the WTC dust goes a long way in explaining the gap between the official story and the mission of AETruth.
It is important for the average American to understand that the official story of 9/11 is seriously flawed. The official story marginalizes common sense, which for me goes too far, but when it flatly discounts verifiable scientific inquiry the Commission is seriously derelict in their prima facie duty to the American Public. So then you might ask to whom did it owe that duty of its apparent obfuscation of the truth - which many would agree - it upheld very efficiently?

The evidence of explosives being used to fell the twin towers and WTC7 is so overwhelming. Finding the truth of who was really behind this is critical to the future well being of our country, as well as to the restoring of trust between we the people and our elected government.

I am a 24 year old hispanic retail employee who spent his younger life in Gifted and Talented Education programs, went to several spelling bees in which I placed best in our school, had a COLLEGE level spelling in only the 6th grade and all common sense would tell anyone without mental development issues that what we are told happened on 9/11/01 is in fact a big lie.
None of this info we are being fed makes any sense. I would invite any governmental agency to watch an architect build a scaled down model of the WTC and you can use as much jet fuel as you would like to try and burn it down. I guarantee you it will not. The only steel buildings to ever collapse because of fire fell on 9/11. Shouldn't that tell you something? And the facts don't stop there. There are many conspiracy theories but as soon as one of these theories has any factual evidence backing it up it is no longer a theory and therefore will make 9/11 a crime scene, not against Islamic extremists... but against the people who are paid to protect us.

12th grade student with intense interest in politics, physics, and science. Most importantly: TRUTH
The physics behind the allegations of the 9/11 myth are relatively simple. The towers simply could not have collapsed the way they did as a result of the commercial jets alone. This is not rocket science, it is high school science. Jet fuel which burns at x temperature cannot burn any higher than that temperature without an external energy source. It has been well established that the fuel does not burn at a high enough temperature to have melted the structural materials in these highly sophisticated building.

12th-grade education, but interested in the sciences, ancient history, archeology, biology, etc., and government cover-ups such as, I believe, the Kennedy assassination and the 9/11 twin towers destruction.
I was mesmerized by a program I watched on a local educational station while surfing through the channels that demonstrated how the plane colliding into the one tower could not possibly have caused the intense heat and fire that pulverized the concrete and melted the I-beams so thoroughly. The evidence submitted regarding controlled, timed explosions, and the speed and sequence of said explosions, were visible in the moving photos shown by the speaker and difficult to deny. I was convinced there was much more to the destruction than was in the official reported reasons for the collapse.

I made a living repairing machinery for years and then went to university to study Civil Engineering as a career change. Left due to personal reasons and took a job working in a mechanical engineering capacity. Studied toolmaking, graduated and worked as a toolmaker for many years as well.
I have watched many videos of the fall of the buildings. Random collapse of objects is not compatible with the completely symmetrical fall of all the buildings as shown in the videos. Photos of the debris areas I have seen show beams that are cut and show slag formation consistent with steel cut by torches or arc. This does not happen in uncontrolled collapses. NOTHING in an office building will burn at temperatures that will melt steel beams. There are so many things wrong with the explanations given us that it insults our intelligence!

I've been watching documentaries about various things, but also the demolition of buildings and how they implode them not to hit buildings that surround them. I watched this stuff after 9/11 but as I watched more of this I came to think that the twin towers kind of fell just like a demolition and it made me seek answers. I quickly realized that the official statements, which I looked at first, didn't make any sense to me despite the fact that I don't have any degree in physics or engineering. Since then I've been watching documentaries and trying to find a solution to this that makes sense. Demolition makes sense to me. Pancake theory doesn't, considering how the crash site looked afterward. But again, I have no degree whatsoever.
