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 lived 20 blocks from the towers which were located directly at the end of my street. They fell uniformly and in free fall, faster than gravity. From the moment they fell, I never believed the instantly-formulated official account and immediately realized the attacks were going to be used as pretexts to fight endless wars, just as in the Cold War, against imaginary enemies in occupations whose purpose is to create real ones. One detail unrelated to the physics of collapse: the 700 pages of Patriot Act in thousands of copies were printed before the attacks occurred, meaning that as with the five+ years involved in coordinating the events of September 11, the coordinated dismantling of what remains of our constitutional rights was carefully envisioned way in advance. Understanding the how of 9/11, thanks to AETruth, leads us to the why which in turn will lead us to the question of who, the indispensable condition for any possible democratic restoration in our country.

It was and is preposterous for me to accept that the WTC towers fell to the ground in 10 seconds because of fires stared by airplane hits. There is an answer somewhere. I trust this organization (AE911-Truth) to find it or help find it. Finding that answer is vital to our country.

When 9/11 happened, I was attending Regis Jesuit High School in Aurora, CO. I remember my physics teacher at the time commented on the impossibility of skyscrapers collapsing due to those plane crashes. The official story we've been given doesn't align with basic physics. I believe that this event is crucial in understanding what's going on, and what has been going on, both domestically here in the United States, but also geo-politically. The 'How' is easily sussed out by fellow engineers, especially structural and civil engineers, so the next two questions we need to be asking ourselves are 'Who?' and 'Why?', and it's my contention that these last two are inextricably linked, i.e. 9/11 was part of an overarching agenda that spans not only the Western world, but the entire globe. Basically, once you understand the 'Who', you'll understand 'Why'. So many have died, including those 3000 innocent souls, as a result of this most egregious terrorist attack. It was trauma on a macroscopic scale. When a person's mind is in that traumatic state of suspension, it is much more susceptible to the various suggestion and/or injunction delivered by the mainstream media who are either (a)complicit in this cover-up or (b)completely ignorant. I for one have more faith in the average human being's intelligence so have to, unfortunately, side with the former.

I have viewed a lot of footage regarding Sept. 11, 2001, and the series of events really does not seem to add up. Steel buildings do not disintegrate from a strike, even if you add jet fuel. And there's been no justifiable explanation given for the WTC 7's collapse. I, along with thousands of other concerned citizens, call for a re-investigation of the events. This should be done by a true and impartial team of experts who have no governmental ties or agendas.

I observed the entire event and both collapses from my office window of 110 William Street facing West. What I saw bears no resemblance to what is portrayed as the mode of failure. When the top of the South Tower fell away to the East and down, I fully expected to see the jagged remains of the floors beneath still standing. I was taken aback when the smoke cleared and learned that the entire building had collapsed. It did not make any sense to me then and still makes no sense now.

Former occupation was in aircraft accident investigation at a major airline located in the Pacific Northwest. Interviewed crew members, specifically pilots, involved in such incidences along with obtaining NTSB reports. Reported to MD-80, 727, and 737 flight instructors along with chief pilot. One son is preparing to become an architect at a state university starting the Fall of 2009.
My first notice of an anomaly in the official 9/11 story began when I drove past the Pentagon approximately one month after the alleged 'attack'. What I saw perplexed me as from my background, I determined that a 757 could not have possibly fit into a 16-foot hole and leave little to no debris field at that. Afterwards, I contacted a friend who works for a governmental agency (commercial building engineer) and asked him how it is possible that aviation fuel could burn hot enough to 'melt' the steel trusses and supposedly causing a 'pancake' collapse. Then I asked him how WTC 7 fell. He only answered that fires were hot enough in WTC 7 to cause its collapse. The last time I spoke to him was in 2001 and he will not return my phone calls. He defended the WTC 1 & 2 official 'pancake' explanation. I've since listened and printed out many theories as to why these buildings fell. Steven Jones suggestion about thermite or thermate is intriguing. Others have suggested a mini-nuke device was implanted at the base of the buildings. It is obvious WTC 7 was a controlled demolition. But I wanted to hear from the experts, such as those on this site. My biggest objective now is to find out why the evidence was removed before experts could examine it - especially the steel. Why did fires keep burning under the rubble for over a month? But most important is why the investigations are being obviously covered-up. This is why I appreciate your site and will gladly sign the petition.

I cannot explain the reason WTC-7 fell into it's own footprint at free fall speed, without any resistance due to office fires???

There are many serious problems with the storyline, here's just a few: - The near free fall speed, meaning there was no resistance. - The fact that any 'collapse' would have tilted the top stories toward the direction of the weakest point, not straight down. - It's very obvious that some type of explosive action was disintegrating the building on it's way down. - The jet fuel could not have reached temperatures necessary for the actions that are alleged.

I think that the Pentagon was not a passenger jet, and I do not think that the terrorists were foreign. I think it is very clear that it was an inside job.

A thorough, independent, and impartial review/investigation of the collapse of Building's 1, 2, and especially Building 7, is long overdue. In my opinion, the official explanation is, at best, a sham, and at worst a travesty of justice for the citizens of the United States and the world.

I have a background in business management but choose not to spend my time on this earth wandering don that road. I strongly believe there is a group within the upper echelon that attempts to manipulate the masses through media and social idiocracies.
Building #7 collapsed at near free fall speeds. All buildings feel into their own footprint as if it was a controlled demolition. There has not been one clip of evidence that supports a 757 crashing into the pentagon. The pentagon is one of the most surveillanced buildings in the world. why can't the gov't release one clip to silence the critics? I'm someone who was spoon feed the story and not until recently began questioning what happened on September 11th. I feel now I have been cheated and tricked by the very people put in office to protect me. I believe that war racketeering has been going on for centuries. I believe shame AND forgiveness should be the words that come to the minds of Americans when regarding the Bush, Cheney, Rove, and Rumsfeld families.

Because it is so relevant to the safety of all who live, work, or visit in high rise buildings, a thorough, independent investigation of the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings must be demanded. The official explanation of these events is simply not credible, given the facts.

Days after the 9/11 event I was curious to research other high-rise buildings that had been damaged by aircraft or fire. I was amazed to discover buildings burning for hours and even days that never collapsed or had very small partial collapsed sections. But in every photo I found the steel structures always were left standing. I accepted the pancake theory when it first was offered, but soon returned to my first concerns. I have been following all the 911truth organizations and I am very grateful for the work they do representing all of the true Americans. I feel great frustration that the very individuals that need to consider your research and findings will not even consider watching your videos. That is a serious blind-spot.

I am not an architect but the evidence leads me to concur with the general findings that 9/11 was some kind of an inside job.
Science and politics seem to be on opposite sides. I believe this is because the goals of the true perpetrators is not honest and needs darkness to continue. I would like to see light shed upon this tragedy and if any evidence of foul play is found that should be dealt with to the full extent of the laws.

I am a scientist and so I need to see the evidence. I work in a scientific research center for the U.S. government and the NIST study and it's conclusions were embarrassing. The evidence of my eyes says it's conclusions were wrong. As a citizen and voter, I ask for an independent investigation whose methods and definitions can be corroborated by a panel of peers as with any scientific study. I am impacted daily by the waste of money spent since 9/11 to keep the government facility I work at safe and secure where there is no threat.
The fall of Building 7 is obviously a planned implosion as is done when any large modern building must be brought down. Please provide more information about the supplies and rigging that it would take to accomplish this and how it could be done without a lot of residents knowing about it. Or did they?

False flag operation for geo-strategic purpose to seize the power to expand. I was curious about what happened, and especially what happened with the waging of war against Afghanistan and Iraq. I heard rumors in the Muslim community in my city, even in 2002 - 2003, that this wasn't done by Muslims, but by an American secret army with hiring Arab looking persons, to act like they are Muslims, and create a cover story. Definitely some Arabs were involved, especially the King of Saudi Arabia. But they are not Muslims, they are traitors which collaborate with the US government to destroy their neighbors and take oil, and of course prepare the field for Desertec of Europe, because US is controlled by Europe, through the FED.

Environmental engineering is a hobby. In particular, I like building structures/shelters that are mobile, modular, and efficient.
I was young at the time, so I feel like there are quite a few aspects of 9/11 that went over my head. In part, I think I was too young to think critically about causes of the event or its implications. I'd like to go back and take a closer look at the event that has so profoundly shaped the nation since.

I watched, as did millions of people, the towers being hit, the towers burning and then the towers collapsing. God have mercy on the souls of those who died that day. It is my firm, educated belief that the impact of those aircraft and the burning jet fuel was not sufficient energy release to destroy the buildings. I have repeatedly watched the videos of all three buildings fall and have identified the tell-tale plumes of explosions running rapidly down the length of all three buildings in the moment before their structures gave way.

I don't believe the official story on the events of September 11, 2001. The America I used to know based any judgment on physical evidence and extensive examination, the report on 9/11 ignored all key physical evidence. I have never believed a plane hit the ground in Pennsylvania because there never were any pieces of the plane on the ground. I have never believed a plane hit the Pentagon. Again, no pieces of the plane on the ground; several cameras in the area with no footage of the plane hitting the building and a small hole that goes through the many layers of the building - how did a large plane make that? I have never believed a commercial jet liner hit the south tower of the WTC in New York. The photos I have seen look like a military plane. Complete collapse of 3 buildings by explosives is very obvious to me. Tower 7 being the smoking gun. Since when does a structurally sound building implode from just a few small fires? I have seen the melted beams sliced through diagonally. I have listened to eyewitness testimony of explosives going off in the buildings, by firefighters, and eyewitness examination of a plane that was not civilian in design. I have heard eyewitness testimony of bombs going off in the basement of the Towers before the planes hit, blowing out the lobby windows. I have reviewed evidence of explosive residue found in the dust around Ground Zero. I am more than outraged over the thought that people with explosives planned the destruction of three buildings occupied by human beings, thoughtfully, with complete participation of the U.S. Military and, of course, the government of the United States of America. As a human being, a conscious human being, I will not rest until the truth be told about America's darkest hour and the collaboration of lies that have completely changed life in the United States, for the reasons of greed and power.

I have over 15 years of concrete restoration experience that includes demolition of existing reinforced concrete structures from industrial to commercial envelopes.
When we demolish reinforced concrete we utilize gas powered cut-off saws to sever internal rebar whenever possible but do need to incorporate oxyacetylene produced heat more often than not. These types of heat sources leave a very distinctive cut line especially noticeable when plate or I-beam members are altered. When structural steel is physically pulled apart, be it from shear or tension forces, the adjacent material is deformed and is obvious upon inspection. The I-beam columns seen in countless photographs at ground zero could definitely not have been severed by any other means than metal cut by heat well beyond temperatures caused by fire alone. When knocking down larger assemblies, structural steel that is in tact creates a hinging point which directs the material in a direction similar to the way a tree falls when cutting with a saw. The film footage I viewed indicated beyond a doubt that other factors were at play.

I was born in the Boston area and lived there until I was 25 at which time I moved to LA, worked in the wholesale auction industry for 27 years, married, have a 17 year old daughter, and in 2009 moved to NH. I seldom believe much about important major issues I hear in the news or from the government, i.e., nutrition, security, medical advice, etc., without checking multiple sources first.
Before 2002 I had concluded that it was (and is) impossible for a pancake collapse to have caused the obvious pulverization that was evident daily through virtually all news clips.

Former geologist, now in green building field. I don't have technical expertise you can use; I'm just a thinking person who researches things that don't make sense. But I'd like to sign the petition anyway, as an other.
Nanothermite - need I say more? Perhaps NORAD being controlled by a civilian for the 1st time in history? Perhaps eye-witnesses on original news reels telling of explosions? Perhaps Larry Silverstein making a huge profit? Perhaps the security company that had the contract for the twin towers? Sheeeeeeesh people - wake up.

I have a degree in mechanical engineering and have worked in the disciplines of hydraulics, fatigue testing, R&D, structural design, and failure analysis.
It is obvious to anyone with a brain, that (1.) skyscrapers (a.) have never, and (b.) cannot ever, fall to the ground at terminal velocity, except in the case of an engineered implosion as seen in any building demolition. Further (2.) said implosion cannot be triggered by an aviation fuel fire within the building because (a.) the building components are treated with port authority of ny/nj certified flame retardants (i designed structures to withstand said parameters in the past) and (b.) such a fire does not burn at a high enough temperature to cause failure of the building components. And finally (3.), evidence validating these facts can be found by (a.) simply googling videos of other high rises that have burned and been damaged, but which has not led to either structural failure or collapse at terminal velocity, or (b.) doing a simple research into the facts surrounding the collision of a b-25 bomber laden with aviation fuel crashing into the empire state building in 1945 which caused a massive fire but no structural collapse of any kind. Http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/b-25_empire_state_building_crash when confronted with such evidence, lex parsimoniae demands a rethinking of the facts at hand, even though such facts lead one to draw a very unsavory conclusion. The collapse of the wtc buildings was planned and executed by an internal governmental force.

I knew it was a planned demolition as soon as I saw it live on TV. It amazes me that so many people accept the lie they see as patriotic and ignore the obvious reality.
