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 freefall acceleration of Building 7, which NIST admits to, is not explained credibly by their computer model. The twin towers should not have fallen at all, since they were in static equilibrium, then suddenly explosively collapsed through the path of most resistance.

As the actions that took place on 9/11/01 haven't never occurred previously it has to bring into question what external forces beyond those reported officially brought these 3 structures down in a corrective manner in the opposite direction of least resistence.

BS Aerospace Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington, 2011. I have work experience in aerospace engineering.
I'm an aerospace engineer. This isn't just a conspiracy theory. The engineering of how WTC 7 fell is absolutely impossible. When I say absolutely I mean the numbers are 1 in a trillion likely. This is the only steel building to ever fall from fire alone in the history of humanity and that's because it wasn't really only fire. It had 26 columns. The fire would have had to melt all 26 columns within a second of each other in order to create the engineering situation that takes the building to the ground at the speed of freefall gravity meaning no resistance from the support beams while falling. This is not a conspiracy theory.....it is scientific fact. Who did it and why we may never know.... it was absolutely without a doubt brought down by demolition at 5 o'clock pm on 9/11.

I'm a 30 year old truth seeker. I'm a small business owner, in the financial services sector, but truth seeking has become a part time job for my husband and I. We have been spending about 10 hours a week watching documentaries and researching the ways the government is using false flag operations to take away our constitutional rights and create a HUGE government at the expense of the taxpayers.
I have no doubt in my mind that the WTC buildings were a planned demolition. It's very clear from the evidence, and it's scary to me that the government is trying so hard to hide this. I believe this was all a plan to scare the American public into thinking it's okay to take away our constitutional rights to protect our 'safety', when the people really need protection from is the US government.

I am immeasurably disappointed that officials the voting citizens of the United States placed their trust in to hold office and protect them would so grievously betray that trust and through their own actions would work to destroy the very world we all create and live in together. I am equally insulted that you think we are so stupid as to believe the lies that clearly contradict the facts. Our own government works against the people for their own selfish greed.

I actually have no relevant background. I am nobody but I think independently and don't adhere to any known ideological bias except that I believe government is in place for us we are not here for them and the evidence is telling as to something being amiss. As citizens it is our right to know if our government is implicit in nefarious deeds.
I also wish to see addressed the psychological aspect of the war on terror and how psychological mechanisms were used in order to whip the public into a frenzy which resulted in an environment where no questions were asked because of a false sense of trust.

I feel that holding those responsible accountable for their action could be the starting point of a world that gets rid of our lust for oil, gets rid of greedy corporate domination, gets rid of World Banks that are draining us of our dignity, our humanity and our will to help our fellow man.

I hope I don't have to have a degree to make a logical determination in what has occurred on 9-11. My life's lessons and being 51 years old should count for something. I'm not a engineer or a professor but I know when I'm lied to. I hope to be counted as an American who knows that 9-11 was planned. I just cant believe that there is not a overwhelming support for the truth. I hope you succeed in reopening the case for the truth for 9-11.
You can plainly see that it was a controlled demo. I believe that there were many witnesses and other commotions were going on and not reported. I have watched hours of testimony and you tube information on 9-11 so my views were not made up overnight or deterred by some outside influence. I believe there is a big conspiracy and our government owes the families and the American citizens a explanation. Thank god for Americans for the truth.

In my opinion, the government is hiding the truth. According to all of the evidence that has been presented, it is more than obvious that this is a cover up. A new investigation needs to be done ASAP! This whole 9/11 situation that occurred has been a cover up from day one. We, the Public, need an explanation for this! We are not stupid and can plainly see we are being lied to.

I studied 3 years at NWOSU as a Biology and Chemistry major. I then transferred to University of Houston where I studied Occupational Safety & Health for 2 years. Still no degree because work has prevented me from finishing my degree program. However, I have worked 31 years in Occupational safety and health in the construction, petrochemical, nuclear power and oil and gas industries both nationally and internationally. During my career, I have investigated many industrial accidents involving fires in all industries and I fully understand and respect a competent fire protection engineer's opinion. I have participated in more than 100 occupational accidents and fire investigations during my career.
Even I can recognize that a proper investigation was not conducted and completed by our government for the 9/11 event. I did read the 9/11 Commission's report (very boring) and the commission never really addressed the root cause of the event which was what every American wants to know. Who, how and why.

The documentaries that I have seen have convinced me that it was not structurally possible for the buildings to have fallen and been pulverized into fine dust with out carefully placed explosives. I believe that top government officials knew of 9-11 and allowed it to happen to have a good excuse to get into the war and to slowly start taking away and destroying out Constitutional Rights.

I do not think that steel structures, whatever the cause, come down in free fall time except through demolition (controlled or uncontrolled). Three structures were destroyed in one day and one of them had virtually no damage to it (WTC 7). I would like to see the truth come out.

Several years experience in fire and water damage reconstruction.
I have seen the damage a fire can cause to multiple types of structures. If a single family dwelling constructed mainly of everyday building materials (wood, vinyl and concrete) can still be standing after hours of fire consumption, why can't a reinforced steel and concrete building? How do three buildings fall at free fall speed from fire?

I feel 911 was clearly a False Flag Operation. It is so easy to see with the evidence you and others have presented. I like so many other Americans totally bought the official account. Caught up in the shock & awe of the event, I guess. After seeing footage of the buildings come down, and studying the facts. It is a very simple matter. Those buildings were brought down with a controlled demolition.

The events that took place on 9-11 was the biggest act of terror committed on the American people in its history. We are expected to believe Bush and a government that continually lies to the American people. It has to STOP! I thank God for A&E for 911 truth! I pray to God that Trump will open up a TRUE & INDEPENDENT 911 investigation that will lead to justice for the American people. RE; twin towers; Common sense will tell you that a structure that was supposedly hit eccentrically would not pancake upon it's own foot print at free-fall approximately one hour later.

I have always been of the opinion that the truth is yet to be told. I believe the evidence speaks for itself, and there have always been more questions than answers. Why the rush to get the debris out of the country, how could all three buildings fall in their own footprints, how did building seven catch fire and burn to the point of collapse, in its own footprint, and why did the owner of the property say while being interviewed that 'we decided to 'pull it' in reference to building seven? 'Pull it' being a term used for a controlled demolition.

I enjoy watching control demolitions at various building sites. Have seen many go wrong. Was amazed how ( US Gov ) pulled off the WTC 7 Tower demolition at Freefall
This 9/11 Terrorist Act by the US Gov (part of it ) has helped the New World Order progress with their evil plans to withdraw freedoms of the people, increase fear, and pretend Big Brother will help the people. We are dealing with a run away government who's agenda is population reduction through war, disease, etc. etc. etc. The official 9/11 story repeated over and over by the mass media is an insult to the intelligence of the ordinary thinking man.The truth must and will come out.

I'm literally floored at the condition of the melted columns and twisted steel post 9/11. Looking back at the Windsor Hotel in Madrid; there were massive fire balls that burned for hours, yet still after all was said and done the structure frame still stood. In fact, a crane still remained on it's roof. How, in heavens name, did Building Seven fall hours later into its own path with no resistance whatsoever? Why isn't Silverstein questioned about his part in all of this. He made billions of dollars over this and admitted in an interview that the buildings were pulled.

College educated. As for experience, I only have the experience of 9/11 branded into my memory and thinking as a child how could this be happening? Why? Although I do not have the qualifications and knowledge to act as an expert, I know that the science is there, and there are questions unanswered.
The official story doesn't make sense. There are so many unanswered questions, and the fact that a proper investigation wasn't conducted should have been the first and biggest red flag.
