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.

Questions and concerns immediately following destruction of Twin Towers, particularly after hearing details and seeing images later that same evening. My education led me to believe that most and certainly these particular buildings would withstand airplane impacts and fires. WTC 7 collapse and my familiarity with Meridian Tower in Philadelphia and several witnessed controlled demolitions while in Philadelphia convince me of controlled demolitions of the three WTC buildings on September 11th. Implications of this are extremely disquieting for myself as a citizen of this country and of enormous concern for notion of integrity in process of building design, planning, construction as well as quasi public process of zoning, funding facilitation large scale urban and or public projects.

The collapse of the WTC towers and WTC 7 strongly resemble that of a perfectly carried out controlled demolition: a straight-down collapse of the structure at close to free-fall speed. Video-footage showing flashes of light across the buildings and witnesses talking of hearing explosions shortly before the collapse support this.

I am a city and regional planning major at Ohio State University Knowlton School of Architecture. I have researched and published professional journals in the field. I research many diverse topics surrounding architecture and city planning. I have always found the 9/11 event very questionable and have a tremendous amount of curiosity about the investigation, motif, and accountable person(s).
I believe the events leading up to, during, and after 9/11 are irrefutably coordinated by an entity far more powerful than a Middle Eastern gang. When thinking of my personal opinion and feelings about the events and where we are now because of the tremendous influence 9/11 had, I feel angry, saddened, fearful that our country has lost its identity, but also I recognize an opportunity. I believe this has awakened a lot of people who were previously sleeping. Without a doubt more than a majority or at least a large population remain asleep, but those of us who do not simply believe what we are told, and what we see from the lens of a camera, but ask questions and search for the truth, are inspiring others.

In addition, every large catastrophic event is investigated for years, yet this event seems to have had minimal if any sort of investigation. Everything about these buildings coming down was a planned demolition.

' As a former fighter pilot, I regard the failure to intercept the first airliner on 9/11 prior to impact, as one of the worst derelictions of duty in the history of this nation. We routinely scramble fighters 80 to 100 times every year to intercept 'unknowns,' some even turning out to be flocks of birds or radar ghosts. An alert interceptor from FLORIDA could possibly have arrived in time to intercept the first airliner. I'm sure it would have broken the pilot's heart to shoot down an airplane full of people: the inevitability of its flightpath makes the math simple: they were going to die, drop them somewhere that minimizes additional deaths on the ground. An airliner switching off its transponder squawk, turning 180 degrees off course and failing to respond to radio calls, sets off alarms across the entire Eastern seaboard. Don't try to feed me the crap the media was spooning out, that Boeing 767's 'disappeared' from radar. Civil air traffic control routinely informs pilots of flocks of birds, which show up well on low-tech air traffic control radar even though their squawks lack airspeed and altitude telemetry, and NORAD TRACKS SCREWS DROPPED BY ASTRONAUTS IN SPACE. Failing to intercept an aircraft in these circumstances is equivalent to gunners smoking and joking on the deck of your ship watching kamikazes crash into it. That's just the first impact. Recall that at that moment, there were two or three other aircraft 180 degrees off course with transponders and radios off: CONFIRMED HOSTILES FLYING TOWARDS OUR NATION'S CAPITAL. National defense policies adhered to for decades require enough interceptors sitting strip alert 24 / 7 / 365, within striking distance of the world's most heavily defended target in the most powerful nation on earth, to get most of a *squadron* on station in the time available. And instead, several news crews perform the intercept successfully WITH HELICOPTERS; so we can watch on TV while it happens TWO MORE TIMES. Next you have two buildings collapsing symmetrically into their own footprints, in defiance of the laws of physics, after taking hits they were specifically designed to withstand. And then a third, that wasn't hit by anything. After that, we watch while for some 200 days firefighters pump water into the steaming wreckage, to cool down exactly what? YOU CAN'T MELT STEEL WITH KEROSENE, right? Black smoke means low-temperature, oxygen-starved combustion, right? Water from fire sprinklers will not extinguish a petroleum fire, fuel spills absent retardant generally burn until all the fuel is gone, right? Why do you suppose the steel scrap recovered from the debris was shipped off to CHINA as quickly as it could be loaded onto trucks and ships, while even routine analyses was FORBIDDEN, if only in the interest of discovering why this steel failed so remarkably--a failure unprecedented in the history of engineering? As a military man you could not look me in the eye and try to tell me that an operation the size of our invasion of Iraq was possible without planning begun more than a YEAR prior to 9/11. I don't give a damn about any 'conspiracy theories,' theories are not relevant to the dereliction, omissions and obviously preplanned fabrications associated with 9/11.

It does not add up!, If you planed for a year you could not get a building to fall in such a manner. Two jets, with cast iron engines, no bombs and a aluminum hull and sub frame did not make these building fall!

Judging from photos and videos, this was a controlled internal explosion. I speculate well trained workers disguised as maintenance crew installed the explosives over a long period of time in the same way they destroyed WTC 7 building.

I saw with my own eyes, and photographed, the WTC collapse from a Brooklyn balcony. From what I witnessed on 9/11 and the images recorded on tape available from several sources, I can reasonably conclude that the planes that crashed into the towers were NOT the cause of their collapse. There is too much doubt about the official story published in the media for a thorough, neutral investigation not to take place. Until our country is willing to question its leaders and openly challenge their statements we will not be free. We demand an investigation about the toppling of the WTC immediately.

There has been never a nail or chisel existed in the world we live, which got pulverized because a hammer or slash hammer hit them into head. The chisels have been hit billions of times onto their head with slash hammers during the 18th century while our railroad system was build, where back then the steel was not that advanced as in the twin towers and they got hit and hit and hit and never got any of them pulverized. How come on 911 two steel structures, each sticking out like a huge chisel into the air get hammered once on the side and these 48 chisels shaped like two letters of H molten on two legs together and having a with of 6 inch, get to be pulverized onto their ground. That is not possible without explosives embedded into the sections of the huge chisels. In addition if you look at the videos, evidence captured on that day, you would be very soon aware that the buildings were not collapsing, rather they were exploding in all directions and pulverized extremely similar to material or matter that had been exposed to explosives. It is time for us to open an independent investigation into 911 and bring everything into day light; instead insisting that it was orchestrated by terrorist. If 911 is really orchestrated by terrorists than there shall be nothing to be scared of an independent investigation. Thank you.

Iron-rich microspherules detected in samples of 9/11 dust by both the USGS and the RJ Lee Company prove that high temperature reactions, exceeding those required to melt iron, took place on 9/11. Furthermore, through the work of Niels Harrit, Farrer, Jones and Ryan et. al, traces of unreacted nanothermitic material have been found in four separate samples of 9/11 dust. So far, these studies remain unchallenged by the establishment leading many, with good reason, to question what they have been told by official sources about 9/11.

If building 7 collapsed from damage suffered from the remains of the twin towers, the collapse would not have been symmetrical into its footprint. A 47 story building is approximately 500 feet tall and for it to fall at free fall speed into its footprint is impossible by chance.

Seven years editing the Mensa Bulletin (national magazine), then Distinguished Service Award with Life Membership in American Mensa. A letter to the editor published on 9/12 in the L.A. Times and several other papers around the country, warning against a knee-jerk flight into fascism to keep us safe.
Nothing about the official story makes sense when you think about it. But the three key elements that should convince anyone with an open mind are: (1) Building 7 collapses straight into its own footprint, falling as a single mass as though in quicksand -- i.e., with the failure at the bottom all the way down. Can't happen with a few pitiful fires restricted to a few upper floors, mostly on one side of the building. (2) Molten iron (not steel) running in rivulets under the debris of all three towers; residual heat higher than the temperature of standard building fires or jet fuel persisting for more than a week. If the official story were true, only a miracle could have caused that. (3) Multiple samples of dust from the collapses, taken at varied locations, all contained two damning things. First, microspheres of iron (again, not steel), which can only arise when molten iron solidifies in mid-air. That means that least some of he steel superstructure had to be converted into iron, for that's the only possible source. Second, the dust contained unexploded particles of military-grade nanothermite -- stuff you can paint onto a surface (like steel beams) and then ignite at will. There is no conceivable reason for that to be in any of the three buildings -- yet there it was. There are countless other very obvious indicators that the official story is bogus, starting with televised predictions that WTC7 either had fallen (BBC video with WTC7 prominently in the background) or was about to fall (Giuliani was only one of many who took action based on knowledge of WTC7's collapse. When has the timing of ANY burning building's collapse been so predictable? Why was the official investigation held up for so long by the Bush Administration, and then funded with a pittance compared to the Challenger Dister investigation in which fewer than 10 people died? If a teensy bit of fire brought down all three buildings, shouldn't there be huge funding to find out if all the high-rise buildings in the world are suddenly at risk of collapsing as they burn, even though the first three steel-framed high-rise structures in history to collapse from fire happened on the same day and same place?

I am an environmental health specialist who is familiar with building and fire codes, as I am required to inspect facilities. I also have a strong background in chemistry and physics due to my undergraduate and post graduate studies.
My interest in questioning the official story about 9/11 began soon after the event and saw the immediate drumbeat to war with a country who had no involvement in event. Then to learn that no revision to the fire codes was even called for after three sky scrapers had purportedly collapsed due to fire that was able to spread as a result of missing foam and penetration--I started looking and realized that we have been lied to on a scale that is frightening and unimaginable.

A week after 9/11 I joined the US Navy and served for 2 years. In the 2008 election, I was a Regional Field Director for Obama, responsible for running campaign offices in a 4 county region of South Carolina.
The more I try to find about 9/11 the more I see the government's official theory does not explain what happened. The explanation of the World Trade Center towers collapsing does not stand up to the scientific method of reasoning and investigating. Further investigation needs to be done, so we can understand what happened and we can protect ourselves from something like this in the future.

If those buildings fell from some force other than controlled demolition, I'll personally kiss Dick Cheney's ass on live T.V.!! And after seeing the videos of the aircraft hitting the buildings, I still believe they were military KC-135 refueling aircraft. I refueled these planes for 9 years in the Air Force. As far as the Pentagon and the crash in Pa., we all know better. What happened to the aircraft with the passengers on them has yet to be speculated.

I'm a highly trained Aviation Maintenance Technician with formal college training in Aviation Physics, twenty-two years experience with a major airline, that includes many years of experience with applied physics. These years include over three years of being a technical analyst. The years of being in such a technical field, have made me very analytical.
I'm not convinced that the jet fuel from the airliners that hit the World Trade towers caused the structure of those buildings to buckle. I myself, through my formal training at Lewis University in the field of Aviation physics, understand the temperature at which jet fuel burns, as well as flash points and related. The reality is that it just isn't possible. Besides which this doesn't take into account the fact that these buildings fell at the rate of gravity, as if there was no internal supporting structure. Also, one must factor in the pyroclastic flow visible, evidence that the internal structure was subject to thermite detonation charges, visible evidence of apparent detonation squibs. All of this and how obvious, the collapse was in an orderly fashion. A professionally orchestrated demolition.

I work on building these type of structures. I know what it takes to melt steel. The beams were huge I am sure and 1200 degrees would not melt or heat them enough to do this type of damage. I am a union Steamfitter and have a science and math background and design piping systems.
Wake up America and find the truth. The Media will not show you. We the people and our freedom are under attack and the terrorists are not abroad. These buildings were taken down with at the very least, the blessing from our political system. This was definitely an inside job. What happened to the WTC maintenance manager who stated that there were first explosions on the first floor and that he had to keep his employees home for two weeks while he escorted engineers and black ops type guys through the interstitial of the building two weeks before 911! He was an Hispanic guy with all the keys to the buildings. He was on Air America radio.

I recorded on VCR tape the collapse of those buildings the very day they occurred and have been able to review the original broadcasts of that day. I have recordings from at least 3 networks recorded that day. I accepted the official stories at that time without question. Only after reviewing information on the internet was I compelled to review my old tapes to confirm that I was not being pranked. My conclusion is that the buildings fell as a result of controlled demolition.

I just want to know the truth about what our government has done to the future of this country...we as American people have a right to know why innocent people have to die because of someone else's greed. I want answers as to why this nation can't come out of the financial ruin we are in and mostly why nobody cares enough to get mad and do something about it.
Only buildings that are a pert of a controlled demolition fall the way the towers did. Why didn't they tip to one side? I would think that they would break off at the access point of the plane but instead collapsed on itself. Where are the black boxes from all the planes. Especially the plane that hit the pentagon. Why is there an exit hole in the other side of the pentagon; the plane didn't go through the entire building, just one side, so where did the hole come from? Where is the plane? Jet fuel can't melt the material the plane was made from so where is the rest of it? Where is the video footage of the plane hitting the building? Seventy surveillance video's and not one is able to catch a 747 hitting a building? Where is the indentation of the wingspan on the building? And if it is there, why isn't it wide enough to show that a 747 flew into it? Why didn't the plane hit anywhere else on the building and only hit the part of the pentagon that was newly reconstructed to withstand a bomb? And why were key people on that particular flight and not just regular civilians? I have many more questions but I will just start here.

I am an aspiring investigative journalist. I've been gaining experience volunteering and now organizing different 'truth' events and conferences.
When I heard the news about the collapse of the first of the Twin Towers through a friend, I knew there was something terrible and fraudulent happening.. When I saw the actual collapse of the building, there was NO doubt in my mind that it was a controlled demolition.

The work being done by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, and by Scholars for 9/11 Truth and Justice, questions the explanation of collapse given by the 9/11 Commission and NIST. The statement that the Twin Towers and WTC 7 were brought down by controlled demolition is proven conclusively by the empirical evidence and basic physics. One only needs to look at conservation of energy to see this.

I am concerned that our nation seems content to live with a lie, a lie that has led to untold misery. We must re-investigate, and learn the truth about the events of 9/11.
They say that on that sunlit New York day The towers came down as fast as falling free. But buildings can't be made to fall that way, They never have in all of history. They say that fires made the metal soft And that in turn began the quick collapse. But fuel from jets can never burn that hot And buildings never turn to dust so fast. The explanation told us was a lie. The cover-up is further proof of crime, And yet we cannot turn away and sigh And let this lie define our life and time. We have to jar awake a sleeping nation, And learn the truth from new investigation!

The Authorities all new the towers were a target and they rehearsed the scenario years before. The F-16s rehearsed protecting the buildings, they had the intelligence and the preparation and they stood guard. the warnings were never relayed, the guards were called away on that morning. It's as if it was allowed to happen. Planned out. When I saw on tv the plane hit the building I thought: How could they let this happen? Why did they let it happen? They are not getting away with slamming people in planes into people in buildings. This kind of thing just doesn't happen in this country. We are smart people. We see things like this coming. My concern is not in the way the buildings fell but where they fell. They fell in our faces with our eyes wide open. Who ordered the scene cleared and the scraps picked up so fast? Who picked it up -Military? Private contractors? Who usually cleans up this kind of mess? Was it different this time? why? It's funny how people reacted. For e.g. the notion a lot of people took for the war that freedom isn't free. But that really wasn't it. They didn't get it. The war just added injury to Insult! Hooray for the TRUTHERS Hooray for LINK TV Hooray for The Power Of The People!

Evidence of false flag controlled demolition is beyond compelling and supportive of a secret attack on this nation. Film of the collapse clearly shows demolition squibs and thermite and thermate materials, which is clear evidence of programmed demolition. Investigate Knights of Malta, CIA, Mossad, Bilderberger, Trilateral Commission, WTC Building security, and all firms having access to the building's systems, especially elevator systems along with applicable government agencies who would have jurisdiction over the eye-witnessed recovery of the Black boxes.

25 years experience with g forces and structural collapse of HSLA steel
Not only would the fires never achieve a temperature to melt the steel, but even if the floors collapsed on top of each other, and the weight of the floors above pancake upon each other, they would 'slide' down the major vertical support columns. (which should have been left standing and toppled over bending and twisting) The vertical support columns cannot just disintegrate. Floors collapsing should have left a tangled mess, protruding from the debris field below, 30-50 stories high, bending over into adjacent buildings.

45 years experience in heavy steel fabrication & erection around the world. Specializing in industrial plant sites around the globe. Also demolishing of outdated structures, every aspect is or was hands on. My father taught me how to learn, the Military taught me how to improvise, Vietnam taught me to not trust the GOV. Ive been a boomer {traveler} ever since .
I love the U.S.of A., But I also know that you cannot believe what Washington puts out. OUR gov. is about, cover ups. I was working in Newark N.J. on a demo job on 911. Could not believe how those Towers could come down SO FAST. I figure some (prework) was done pre-planning as you may. The Question is who or what was the nature behind it all???

I am a Minnesota native and am politically active in my city precinct. I am also an architecture and engineering student through the Minnesota State College and Universities system. I recently published a book title Organized Chaos which outlines in detail how 9/11 could not have happened how the government said it did and how 9/11 is being used as a pretext to invade the countries of the Middle East to get the Military industrial Complex cranking and to convince the American people to give up their civil liberties in exchange for security.
There is no way that Jet Fuel (Kerosene) which can also be used to heat pop rivets could have sustained the amount of heat required to melt steel. Also, there is no way that a steel building (i,e. Building 7) could have collapsed in its own footprint after burning for a few hours when it only sustained superficial damage, when other, much older, buildings have burned for days with much more intense fires and never collapsed.

The tower collapses clearly appear to have been controlled demolitions. The fact that hydrocarbons and office furniture do not burn hot enough to melt steel is significant because there was apparently a lot of melted steel observed after the collapse.

This did not happen the way our government wants us to believe it happened. Buildings that have been on fire do not come down the way that these buildings came down in near free-fall. Building 7 was never on fire and was never hit by an airplane. As Americans were are entitled to the truth and we need to insist that truth prevails.

Retired United States Navy. My primary function in the military was to coordinate and oversee large scale operations, coordinating and organizing enormous quantities of personnel and complex equipment required to carry out diverse and wide ranging tactical objectives. I also worked as a Command Assessment Inspector/Evaluator, in this capacity I was required to evaluate all aspects of military bases and individual command departments to identify in command performance, or any violation or deviance from established procedures. I have also been trained and worked as a military police section leader (Equivalent to a civilian Lieutenant). I have several IT certifications, and have experience working with large scale networks, military, and industrial networks and computer terminals.
I make no attempt to identify or otherwise present any personal conclusions as to what may have actually caused the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings, nor do I endeavor speculate as to what have induced individuals to participate or contribute to the events of 9/11. I do sincerely believe that there is adequate evidence, and reasonable doubt is present to justify an independent investigation of the manner in which these buildings failed and lapsed to the ground.
