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.

Building Number 7 should be enough to convince anyone that this whole thing was a controlled demolition. Modern steel constructed buildings do not collapse due to fire alone. This building was new enough to likely have a sprinkler system that should have extinguished any fire.

I have co-published several peer-reviewed articles on the topic of indoor air quality and passive filtration of indoor air pollutants (see google scholar).
It is clear to me now that there were tell-tale signs that the three WTC towers were taken down by controlled demolitions: squibs; explosions heard by eyewitnesses in the basement, lobby, and on the street; the speed at which the towers fell that does not agree with laws of physics if they were collapsing under gravity alone; the lateral projectiles as the towers fell; projectiles seen exploding in mid-air; thermite discovered in the dust; molten steel pouring from one of the towers just below the impact of the plane, and the molten steel in the rubble that was seen by eyewitnesses at the site in the days after the collapse. We need to know the truth.

I have a BS in Engineering and Applied Science from the California Institute of Technology and an MS in Computer Science from Cal State Chico. I worked for 21 years designing high speed integrated circuits for gigabit rate data transmission at HP and later for Agilent Laboratories. I designed and hold the patent on the 64b/66b line code used in 10Gb/s ethernet backbone of the internet long haul network.
Whatever you think about towers 1 and 2, building 7 was only mildly damaged and it was not even hit by a plane. The fact that it fell in its own footprint, at near free-fall acceleration, can only be explained by the use of pre-planned explosives placed weeks in advance by someone cooperating with the building security. Given that the building was largely inhabited by government agencies, it is very hard not to conclude that 9/11 was a false flag, a 'new Pearl Harbor', designed to justify a fraudulent war in the middle east. If America is to retain any shred of legitimacy, it is essential that the truth about this event be uncovered and the perpetrators be punished.

Understand basements of WTC-1, WTC-2, and WTC-7 all contained pools of molten steel for weeks after 9/11. What created the molten steel? What possible force could instantaneously pulverize literally all of the concrete and gypsum in WTC-1 and WTC-2 as they BEGAN their collapse? In pictures of the Pentagon damage on 9/11, their is no debris field representative of the 120 + tons of the commercial jetliner that supposedly hit the building. What happened to it?

As a commercial aircraft mechanic, I'm aware of how fragile an aluminum & composite structure is. I always thought it would be a great to see an aluminum aircraft try to fly though a steel girder structure. Just the frame so you can clearly witness steel box frames cut the aircraft to ribbons w/ little significant damage. Of course the engines may seem like bowling balls, but how likely are they to cause damage to more than a very small part of a large structure? Keep the faith guys!

Isaac Newton has made the only statement that should be needed to justify an independent investigation into 9/11. Ironically, this same statement made by Newton, which would later become Three Laws, guided civilization without fault for over 300 years until 9/11. These Laws faulted on that day not because of an error in Newton's calculations, but because civilization chose to ignore them. I cannot, however, as to do so would be to brazenly disregard the physics on which our society is built. The government's explanation and public's currently held view regarding the collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7 does not fully take into account Newton's Three Laws of Motion. In every other aspect of our profession, Architects and Engineers have a civic duty to use these Laws to keep the public safe. 9/11 should be no exception.

WTC Building 7 is the only structure that is even relevant, considering it was hit by absolutely nothing on 9/11/2001. There was no airplane, drone strike, conventional missile from the Air Force or the Navy, massive debris from the collapsing Twin Towers, or any natural phenomena such as an earthquake, tornado, tidal wave, that came into contact with WTC 7. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the building was conveniently demolished by means of controlled demolition, as is clearly shown in any video clip recorded by non-governmental agencies. Not for a second will I accept that office fires brought down a 50-story, high-rise building in lower Manhattan, built of high-strength structural steel and reinforced concrete in a highly developed, Western nation that has some of the strictest building codes and demanding licensing processes for engineers and architects! So if one building exhibited such a collapse mechanism, how about the Twin Towers themselves? What about the Pentagon? The 9/11 Commission Report is filled with gaping holes and flaws and is blatantly biased, basically the equivalent of Fox News! It should not take this many architects and engineers, among other professionals, to realize that something was deliberately done on that world-changing day. If the scientific reasoning and engineering principals that we are made to believe in this report contributed to the collapse of the three structures in NYC, then I have no hope left for America, because apparently, critical thinking and asking questions and challenging authority are quickly becoming undemocratic and treasonous! 9/11 was an inside job and I demand an independent investigation by professionals, not war mongers and profiteers!

The sound & acoustical phenomenon that occurred prior to and during the destruction of all three buildings is in direct contradiction with any reports/explanations offered by NIST, the 9/11 Commission or our Government. It does however offer irrefutable proof founded in the most basic principals of physics that these were controlled demolitions. There is a complete lack of evidence to prove otherwise. Had these building been a part of any other occurrence outside of 9/11 no one would even consider another possible explanation other than controlled demolition. You couldn't ask for a stronger, more comprehensive and air tight case.

It is obvious that these buildings failed due to a controlled demolition. Even if steel could weaken from a jet fuel fire, it would not fail in that manner. WTC Building 7 would have not failed from a simple fire of office furniture. And if it did fail, it would not have a free fall collapse. A free fall collapse can only happen if the structural steel columns are compromised evenly and simultaneously.

Watching the taped strike of the 1st aircraft and the live coverage of the 2nd strike and the building collapses a short time later, it was obvious that there was something wrong with the falling of the buildings and the government reactions as reported. Then the fires in WTC 7 and it's collapse later in the day -- made no sense whatsoever.The facts of what I watched compared to what I knew scientifically and practically did not match. I felt it obvious from the first that it was just wrong.

I remember September 11, 2001 and being confused about why building 7 collapsed from a mere office fire. I had seen fire damage on a steel frame building before, but never a complete uniform collapse from an office fire. It seemed odd to me at the time, but the shock of the event distracted me from thinking about it further at the time.

The buildings dropped at free fall velocity. That is physically impossible unless the lower floors are knocked out before the upper floors of the dropping structure encounter them. The burning fuel could weaken the lower floors, but not cause their resistance to the falling structure to drop to zero. In the case of Building 7 there was no fuel to burn and fires in that building could not have burned in a pattern symetrical enough to allow the building drop in its own footprint, aside from the fact that the fires could not have been hot enough to bring the steel structure down.

I would like a thorough investigation in to the events that occurred on 9/11. There is not enough irrefutable evidence to suggest that the towers collapsed the way they did because of the events that are explained in the official reports that are available. The fact that multiple university studies and reports have differing theories and conclusions means we do not have enough concrete evidence to draw such conclusions.

The way the 2 buildings fell so orderly has disturbed me and caused me to think the performance may in actuality be more complex. I did not believe that the airplanes contained enough jet fuel to explode the way they did and then the remaining fuel could cause the collapse the way it did. The existence of the World Trade Tower 7 was news to me and I considered myself fairly well read and this was a surprise.
