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.

The September 11th attacks are a difficult issue not because of the science, but the psychology. For years I dismissed the 9/11 truthers without taking the time to listen to their claims, let alone examine the evidence that they had diligently compiled. Even when I finally did look into the issue, I wanted so badly to maintain my world view that I spent weeks looking for something that disproved the claims of the 9/11 truth movement. After failing to find it, I became angry. Why hadn't my engineering professors told me? I realized that, just like me, they had naturally rejected ideas that went against their preconceptions. Now I am trying to become a part of one of the most ridiculed and hated groups in the United States: those who were open minded enough to listen, humble enough to investigate, and motivated enough to do something about it.

I am a self-employed writer, traveler, online entrepreneur and the founder of two unique and groundbreaking movements. I am known by my fans and friends for superb critical thinking, passion for truth, and am considered one of the few (or only) Asians in the world who is able to think outside the box on every subject (since nearly 100 percent of Asians are pure followers and conformists with no freethought). I am also known as a great debunker of lies and propaganda. Additionally, I am also known as a skilled master of debate, utilizing reason, logic and factual points in my favor. I have ample quotes on my sites to back this up. I have been interviewed on various radio shows for my groundbreaking work and published in several magazines.
After examining a mountain of evidence and videos, I've concluded that Mr. Gage of AE911Truth and other experts in the Truth Movement have made an objective, compelling and scientific case that the government's official version of 9/11 is false, does not match the data, has more holes than Swiss cheese, and that a new independent proper investigation of 9/11 must be launched, in order to find the true perpetrators behind the attacks. It is clear that there is a cover up of what happened on 9/11. Key points: - Fire cannot cause the free fall collapse of three skyscrapers, let alone one. That is absolutely impossible. The fire was not hot enough to melt or weaken steel, and even if it was, there is no way that a small chunk of the towers at the top could plummet through the main portion below it at near free fall speed, as though 80,000 tons of steel were merely thin air. That is 100 percent impossible. Never before or after 9/11 have steel high rises been destroyed by fire. That is a fact that completely demolishes and disproves the official 9/11 story. - Basic logic and common sense also tell you that if office fires could destroy an entire skyscraper, then the demolition industry would be out of business, because why would they need to spend months setting up explosive charges to destroy a building, when a match and kerosene would be all that was needed to do the job? - There is also no precedent for a 757 airline to crash on land and disintegrate, leaving no debris, as two of them did on 9/11 - the Pentagon crash and the Shanksville crash. Moreover, the alleged maneuvers of AA77 were not possible for a 757, especially for an amateur pilot flying it for the first time, and it is also aerodynamically impossible for a plane to move at 400 knots close to the ground. No pilot in the world could accomplish that. And the feat has NEVER been replicated in a flight simulator under the same conditions. - It is also not possible for NORAD to fail to intercept four airlines on the same day. Even former NORAD tactical directors have stated this (See PatriotsQuestion911.com). At most, they may fail to intercept one airliner, but not four. No way. Someone must have ordered NORAD to stand down, or prevented them from reacting to standard protocol. Besides Mr. Gage's compelling film 9/11 Blueprint for Truth I also urge everyone out there to also watch the film Zero: An Investigation into 9/11 on YouTube for free. It contains many irrefutable points and credible experts, including Nobel Prize Winners, that completely debunk the official 9/11 story. Any fence sitter who watches it will have no doubt in their mind that they were not told the truth. We should not let such lies and cover ups get away. It is an insult to the victims and their families if we do nothing about this. I applaud Mr. Gage and his volunteers for their passion, courage and efforts. May all our efforts culminate in an unstoppable momentum that will unveil the truth behind 9/11 and bring justice to the true perpetrators. It's time that the good guys come together to root out the bad guys until they have nowhere to run. These criminals, whoever they are, must learn that they are not above the law, and that their actions will have due consequences. As the leader of two online movements, I will do my part to help get the word out about this movement in its aim to unveil the truth. As Arthur Schopenhauer said, All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

The odds that three steel-frame buildings would collapse at free-fall speed into their own footprints on the same day, after brief, non-engulfing fires burning at temperatures well below those required to significantly weaken steel girders, are astronomically high. The fact that pools of molten metal remained under the WTC complex for weeks afterward (as confirmed by multiple videos, eyewitnesses, Mayor Guiliani, and aerial infrared thermography analyzed by a science team from Bard College), coupled with forensic evidence of molten and sulfidated metal gathered from the scene, strongly supports the theory that high-temperature demolition explosives and cutting agents were used to bring down the Twin Towers and World Trade Center 7.

There are many inconsistencies between the official explanation and the facts. Here are some observations. 1) The lateral ejection of 20 ton steel beams hundreds of feet from a building--some reportedly in clean even lengths. 2) The beams were ejected in absolutely symmetrical patterns. (see http://911research.wtc7.net/wtc/analysis/collapses/mushrooming.html) 3) The manner and speed of collapse were suspect. WTC1, WTC2, & WTC7 did not topple over as you might expect from a building weakened unevenly due to fire. 4) The mass of a fully loaded 767 with fuel would be less than 1/10 of one percent of the above-ground mass of one of the twin towers. 5) A variety of dust samples have proven the existence of iron-rich microspheres commonly produced by thermate reactions (explosives). In fact, the existence of these spheres has even been documented by the government. Some people may say that it is not likely or highly improbable for the trade center towers to have been wired with explosives due to the difficulty involved. This reasoning is used to dismiss any possibility of this scenario actually having occurred without considering the real evidence. Please find out the facts yourself. Don't let the so-called 'experts' (PhD or otherwise) and network television make up your mind for you. Attempt to understand and evaluate them yourself. Do your best to critically evaluate their statements to understand who has credibility and who doesn't. It is very important to consult experts, in print and on video, but do not let them make up your mind for you. Find out who is trustworthy and well-grounded in scientific principles, such as the founder of this group, Richard Gage and many others in the truth movement. Thank you.

The whole entire evidence that is portrayed, squibs coming out the sides a huge circle on the underside of the plane, the towers fell as if explosives were in them. Thermite was found in the dust, it doesnt take that much more to prove.

It is impossible for those buildings to have come down as the result of planes and fire..... Impossible .... there is nothing more I can say. The preponderance of evidence is overwhelming and this government's ability to keep this evidence out of sight makes me want to holler.

I respect the views of the architect/engineer signatories of this petition.

When I first saw the video of each Tower collapse in identical ways, as a layman I thought, They must be made of tooth-picks or match sticks. But now it occurs to me, if they were made of tooth-picks, the Towers would have toppled over when the planes hit them. But no...from what I could see in the second impact, the Tower stood solid when the plane impacted it. It didn't budge.

Although I do not pretend to have engineering or scientific expertise I have, for years, closely followed the arguments for and against the official explanation for the collapse of the Twin Towers and Building 7. Based on appearances alone, the manner in which these buildings neatly collapsed into their own footprints looks much more like controlled demolition than what you would expect from an uncoordinated breaking or failure of various random support structures. Looking only at the available engineering and scientific evidence, it is hard not to agree that the evidence is indeed much more compatible with a controlled demolition model than a random failure model. I would like to see a commission of professional engineers and architects openly study, discuss, debate, and propose an explanation of why these buildings fell that is more consistent with the known facts.

I am just a layman in this matter but also a free thinker. Somethings I don't want to believe, but when credible evidence is presented to me, I will not look at it with a blind eye.
A lot of this statement is from knowledge I acquired by watching AE911 Blueprint for Truth and Loose Change. I also believe what I see. And by that I mean the Towers collapsing at free fall speed into their own footprint. There was enough scientific evidence presented in those programs to make me believe that another investigation needs to be done. Although I hate to say it, I don't think the truth will ever be known as a vast majority of American's simply won't be able to handle the truth.

I'm glad that architects and engineers stand behind the American people, because your arguments can't be called nonsense or conspiracy theories. Even if a fire would have been able to make collapse a few floors, it's not possible that the Towers collapsed in this speed and that a fire would have created the tons of dust or heavy parts of the Twin Towers being catapulted into other buildings.

September 11 came into the world to give the opportunity and the means so the United States can steal natural resources from other countries poor and without an army. He created international terrorism, they exterminated the people under the terrorist threat straight out of Hollywood because it's pure fiction their threat of attacks. And people believe their government and trust. Power and money alone are involved. Domination by force. The Kennedy assassination, the false conquest of the Moon, Pearl Harbor, Nagasaki, Hiroshima, and September 11 is the evidence that the story is written from scratch since the beginning of time by men holy and evil, manipulators.

I am just one more patriotic citizen who believes that only a well- informed electorate can protect and preserve our constitutional freedoms. And I fear that we have been brainwashed into a mental state of fear that makes us willing to trade our constitutional rights to liberty for a false sense of security. I also agree with Benjamin Franklin; author, who would trade their liberty for security deserve neither. Hopefully full disclosure of the true facts will awaken and arouse enough of us to action, that we can re-secret our democracy and rescue our nation from those who covertly endeavor to usurp total power and institute a neofeudal state run by corporations.
After examining extensive investigative reports by independent groups of qualified professionals over the years, am convinced that there has been a cover up of what really happened to the WTC Towers. Consequently, we have acquiesced to an unprecedented and dangerous erosion of civil liberties, along with an ominous drift toward a military police state. Uncovering the true facts will hopefully awaken a sleeping and apathetic populace to the dangers facing our freedoms.

When I got the phone call from my mom on 9/11/01, telling me about the planes crashing into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, I immediately turned on the TV to see what the news had to say about it. I was horrified to see the truth of it there on the screen, but then was completely shocked when the Towers fell. I had enough education and intelligence by that time to truly believe that the bulk of those buildings would continue to support themselves despite the destruction of the upper stories. So I clearly remember being surprised and dumbfounded when I saw the Towers collapse to the ground. But I quickly forgot my initial shocked surprise over that detail in my heart-felt concern for all those living and working in NYC whose lives had already been affected by the tragedy I was witnessing from the other side of the continent. I found myself desperately praying for the safety of as many as could possibly be saved, and for the families of those who could not.

Apart from all speculations about the collapse of the Twin Towers, for me WTC 7 proved that 9-11 was an inside job. Larry Silverstein spoke about 'pulling the building' and thats what we saw happening with WTC 7 at the end of the day. Prepping controlled demolition of such a building takes at least 4 weeks. The majority of architects, engineers and demo experts in the world will tell the same story. The American people needs to hear the truth coming from independant parties, transparent assessments and those resonsible for 9-11 and for the useless aftermath in Iraq and Afghanistan should be punished, ev en if they were the President of the USA.

I was 11 when it happened. So there was a lot of things that I didn't understand that time.

I've watched a lot of documentary films about what happened, and it's just impossible that it fell because of a fire. A lot of friends of mine are studying architecture and engineering, building.. and no one agreed with the official statement presented for public. It's sad that it was 11 years ago and there is still no official uncompromised investigation.

After reviewing the events of 9/11, I do not endorse the government's explanation of the events. I do not believe that the people of the United States have been told the truth about the government's involvement, and I would encourage everyone to study structural engineering, physics and explosives before they defended the government's official story.
