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.

Those sure look like controlled demolitions. Why do other steel skyscrapers burn for hours without collapsing, but all three of these happened to collapse like identical controlled demolitions even though one had not been hit by a plane and two allegedly had? How were the alleged hijackers identified just hours after the Towers fell? The official story is that they were identified from their DNA collected at the site. How could anyone collect their DNA soon after the Towers turned into pulverized dust and molten pools of steel? What base DNA samples would those have been verified against? Someone in Saudi Arabia happened to have DNA samples for all the hijackers on hand and willingly provided it to the US soon after the Towers fell?

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.

I woke and saw the news of the Towers on fire. - - I evaluated the situation and the comparatively minor damage compared to the size of the structure. - - The flash heat of jet fuel is unable to melt protected steel. - - Although I was greatly disturbed by the destruction, I saw no possibility of complete collapse. - - I watched every minute of news and was completely confused when and why the Towers collapsed. - - Further confused why the collapse was perfectly symmetrical. - - Asymmetric damage should result in asymmetric failure. - - - - I feel an odd sense of confused repression of what I thought I held as a solid scientific facts of physics when I see or hear about 9/11. It bothers me psychologically. It's as if it's possible that gravity may not work tomorrow. - - - - Please, the truth must surface.

I know complex systems, i.e the electrical grid, and the modes of dynamic response. Within the timeframes of these building collapses it an improbability approaching near zero that discrete components can fail symetrically. I have better odds winning the powerball lottery - three times in a row.Furthermore when systems fail energy release is asymmetrical because, well, something failed. All one has to do is watch movies like the latest Superman, Pacific Rim, or The Avengers to see how a building would collapse if catestrophically damaged on one side. It topples over, it does not fall straight down at free fall rate.

10 days after the collapse I had trained to be a volunteer in CT when called by the AMTA to become a responder. Then I attended a team leadership training in New York and became Tony Sciacotos' right hand man who was in charge of the NY Team. During these 10 days I came across a police car with 2 officers in it which was covered with debris. After discussing this and what happened they gave me permission to remove some debris from their patrol car which had been under the Twin Towers when one fell.
I became a team leader of the NYC massage team as a volunteer and worked in Firehouses and Precincts for 7 days. For 3 days I was the team leader at the main command center running the massage therapy team. I heard many stories and walked to the destruction to observe and gave my team members permission to do so in groups of 2 while we worked on the rescuers and others.

As documented by this group, never in the history of steel framed skyscrapers since 1908 has a single one of them failed from fire damage, other than the supposed fire imposed collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7. A number of researchers have well documented horrific fires in steel buildings, none of which failed and all were reconditioned and still in use. It was patently obvious as I watched the original footage from Vienna, Austria that these were commercial implosions. Building Seven housed CIA and other federal agencies, all of which would have had to have known and approved of plans and capability to implode the buildings months in advance. The America public deserves to know the truth.

I retired from the Air Force over thirty years ago after serving 20 years. I was trained as a B-52 mechanic. During my service as an airplane mechanic, one of our duties was to clean up after an airplane crash which I did after 3 B-52's crashed in Washington state. So, I am familiar with what a crash site looks like. Also I worked in the Pentagon for four years and am somewhat familiar with the security there.
Through the years I have always been interested in viewing large structures that were demolished. The twin towers and building 7 in my opinion were brought down by specialists. Anyone can see that building 7 was a classic pull. The pentagon photos do not show where the wings along with the engines would have hit. It is very difficult to believe that this large airliner would totally disappear into that hole. And where are the other videos from the pentagon?

The fall never made sense to me. I know a lot about concrete and steel with respect to building failure, and though I have read the arguments for natural collapse and wanted to believe them, my own sense of logic denied me. I read up on the design of Minoru Yamasaki's building (I had once visited his office in Michigan) and I cannot understand how even the heat of jet fuel would have caused the floors to slide the way they did, or so perfectly vertically. Also, I have seen a lot of buildings demolished in Detroit, enough to raise suspicion.

To me, the buildings WTC twin towers and WTC 7 collapsed in a free fall type speed, so neatly (for buildings of that height) that resembled a controlled demo. I noticed that the early news reports that reported ground level explosions and secondary explosions and interviews of first responders giving their eye witness accounts of such explosions were not repeated as the official story later on was repeated over and over.

I saw the Towers come down...and those terrified people trapped in the buildings... facing death ... all those young firefighters, all the fatherless and motherless children...all the lives affected by this evil. COMMON SENSE and research dictates my conclusion and makes me disbelieve the official report through historic documentation of the actions of FDR regarding Pearl Harbor, our involvement in Vietnam via the non incident of the Gulf of Tonkin, hearing the military fighter jets were told to stand down...
The buildings were imploded... plain and simple. Seeing the detonations on videos, under the collapsing building above...the info on the website is indisputable... hearing that the maneuvers of some of the jets? was not something a passenger jet is capable of...that the new Arab pilots could fly the planes as they were... I find it impossible to believe that any real enemy of America ... had access to these highly guarded buildings...seeing no wing imprints at the Pentagon, no black boxes, found... I really find it very very interesting to hear that the temperatures needed to turn the steel to the molten liquid were much higher than jet fuel and a fire could reach... this alone implicates the jets had no capability to bring these buildings that were hit down and certainly... not Building 7... please.

The truth is going to set us free. I was in New YORK on the morning of 9/11 and witnessed the horror of seeing two buildings that I had visited twice that summer and over the years whilst holidaying disappear in a cloud of dust. So much destruction of life and city and for what? The American people need to realize that they are living in a police state. They have no rights! They are not the same... start doing your homework people before you are imprisoned by your own neighbours.
The major news channels and papers are spreading their own conspiracy theory... everything you read and see through the main stream is false and contrived. Wake up people. I live in New York and I love the city and its inhabitants, who could do such an unnatural thing?? Who is pulling the strings?? These animals need to be stopped.

his video came up with a lot of questionnaire which of them are: 1.how does the real hard material that only can be melt on 5000 degree and above can easily melt by the 3000 degree temp of a plane? 2.the impact started from above, how could the structure of below can be soften? 3. this is very rare indeed, what i know is if the building is collapse on angle of 90 degree..there is just one answer..the explosive were set inside? take this video as reference http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XG-l3N1YfQ&feature=related

I think we should continue to ask the questions. There is no doubt in my mind that all three Towers were taken down by a controlled demolition process. The buildings absorbed the initial impacts. Building 7 wasn't even hit by a plane and dropped perfectly into it's footprint. Why? There needs to be a new scientific investigation considering all the voluminous evidence. Why is this being ignored? This is a big problem that needs to be addressed.

I knew when the Towers fell that a lie was being woven that would justify our interference in the Middle East for the financial gain of our government and the interests that run our government. I have been giving out booklets about the truth about 9/11 written by George Humphrey since 2004. The obvious facts have been overlooked and ignored in favor of blaming a group of people that our culture doesn't understand (Muslim terrorists) and is therefore inclined to be afraid of. It is the perfect maneuver of the Hegelian Dialectic: If you want to move forward in a move that will meet with resistance then create a problematic event, blame a misunderstood group that is poorly understood and that people are afraid of for causing the event, rush in with the answer to take care of the problem that will advance your agenda (the Patriot's Act and two Middle eastern wars).

From my first watching of videos of WTC 7, it was unquestionably a demolition. I have wondered if the explosives were there as a means of protecting CIA, FBI information. I have never seen any explanation as to why there were fires in WTC 7 in the first place. This website gave me conclusive evidence for the Towers' collapse which always has been suspect for me.

High school graduate, self employed, semi retired. I believe these buildings were demolished to create an atmosphere whereby the US citizens would be enraged enough to go to war, but we went to war against innocent countries. This was all planned by the perpetrators and authors of the Project For a New American Century, promoting full spectrum dominance of the planet. A criminal agenda, to further the stampede towards a new world order, a one world government, and further the Greater Israel Project. The official story is there to protect officials.
Demolition, false flag, deception to go to war against innocent countries, for resource and geopolitical means. Crimes against humanity, and treason by many people in the US government.

I'm two semesters away from my B.S. in Business Management and Economics with a concentration in Business Administration. I find it very hard to swallow that the building fell in the manner it did from a fire. I've also heard speculation that the building needed to be redeveloped as it was in poor condition.
Clearly the building imploded. This can't happen from a fire. How stupid does the Government really think we are? Never mind I already know the answer.

I've studied dentistry and I've decided to study business now. Since the night of 9/11, because I live in KSA time difference, first thing to come to my mind is that they must have fast forwarded the collapsing of the Towers and that it's physically impossible for 2 huge towers to collapse vertically just perfectly without planned demolition. Then I believed, for a day or so, the official story and I said to myself, maybe they've loaded all of the skyscrapers with dynamite in case of an accident so it won't affect other surrounding buildings. At that time it was my only and last desperate excuse. The next day I thought I must have been so stupid to convince myself with such a ridiculous excuse, and I was and still am so amazed by the amount of control over the media around the world, and more amazed by peoples denial, ignorance and the inability of using their brain to figure this out logically. Anyone around the world educated or even illiterate can come to the same conclusion.
First and most importantly, innocent people have died, almost 3000 on that day, 100 times more around the world because of that day. Criminals responsible MUST be brought to justice. Secondly, why did they accused Saudis mainly? Muslims? And then use it as an excuse to invade Iraq? Not to invade Saudi Arabia? or Iran at least? I think that's the main question that will lead us to those criminals. To unconvinced people: Just think about these points please: 1- Huge skyscrapers collapsed vertically at the speed of free fall. 2- Building 7 collapsed with NO planes - far away from other buildings - not even much fire, and at the same time. 3- 2 Airplanes hijacked with box cutters and NO one knows at the ground about it for hours in the air. 4- A few Saudi bedouins who cannot even speak or read English well can fly a commercial plane and hit the buildings so precisely. 5- Watch any video for planned demolition of a building and another video of a building collapsing naturally, and compare.

Owner of a Remodeling and Hardscape company with 8 employees. I do construction drawings for our projects and though not architectural or on the scale of large buildings, I do have a sense of how buildings are put together.
Though not an engineer, I was puzzled by how fast the 3 buildings fell and that they fell straight down. I also found it curious that the debris was removed so quickly and disposed of so thoroughly that it is not available for examination.

Dad fought in WWII as Jimmy Stewart's lead navigator. He was a member of ASID, an engineer and industrial designer. I am a patriot and I make my own mind up regarding the truth. I do not imbibe the pabulum fed by the government or media like baby food.
Magicians get away with sleight of hand all the time because people can be hoodwinked, and they allow common sense to go by the wayside. I believe the American people are believing what the Bush administration wanted them to believe. Donald Sutherland's CIA character in JFK said it best: Who had the power to step down his protection? I believe it is an insult to our nation's security abilities and dedicated military personnel to believe they could NOT have prevented this when military jets are scrambled all the time for lesser incidents, and yet on this day, NORAD is down? Jet planes don't topple skyscrapers. I know men who were ironworkers on WTC and they say the same. That building was built to last, unless otherwise professionally demolished. As well, the cement from the building was pulverized, POWDERED. A simple fall from grace would not turn cement into baby powder. (MIT engineer explored the evidence) There is no reason Building 7 should have imploded unless it was a controlled demolition. Buildings don't implode of their own accord, and certainly office furniture is not a sufficient incendiary device. It's time for the truth to come out! NO MORE SECRETS, NO MORE LIES.
