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.

Berlin, BE, Germany
After I finished the study of Landscape and Environmental Planning at Technische Universit't Berlin I worked as a documentarist and editorial journalist for the German television, focused on natural science topics. Now I'm working as a Landscape Architect - but most of my time I spend with writing about political topics on one of the widely read German blogs.
The collapse of the three WTC Buildings was caused by a controlled demolition. There is no other way to bring down buildings into their own footprints in free-fall time. My witnesses are Galileo Galilei and Isaak Newton. I joined the German truther movement as a writer, blogger and journalist one year ago. In the official story I never believed, just as I never kept faith with speculative explanations.

Graduated with the BSEE degree from Bradley University in 1982. I find this evidence very disturbing and demand a very thorough investigation where no stone is unturned.
All people who were involved or had prior knowledge of this huge crime need to be brought to justice. I also highly doubt that these organized criminals will not heed the requests for this investigation. It is naive to expect this since they control the media, and the secret national security apparatus of this nation. All kinds of necessary investigations are constantly thwarted for National Security reasons.

Occupation: Aviation Technology
I was formally trained by the government in aerospace technology: airframe structures, hydraulic and pneumatic power systems and the materials and methods for repairing and replenishing these systems. I was also trained and refreshed annually in aircraft firefighting. I was involved in aircraft accident recovery efforts and reconstruction. I worked as an aircraft corrosion specialist dealing with composition and subsequent treatment of metal alloys and their deterioration properties. This included metals subjected to many different stresses such as heat, vibration, acids, salts, biological attacks, and deterioration due to improper alloying.
Based on my past experience with aircraft fuel fires and their documented effect on metal structures, I simply cannot accept the official version of what happened to the three buildings that fell on 9/11. Given the temperature at which jet fuel burns, and the quantity involved in this particular incident, I believe it is patently impossible for it to heat a steel structure of the kind found in WTC buildings 1, 2, and 7 to the point of catastrophic, free-fall collapse such as was exhibited by all three of these buildings on that day. I have personally witnessed mild-steel structures subjected to repeated applications of burning jet fuel over the course of days and weeks with no significant damage resulting to these much weaker structures. There is simply no logical reason to accept the NIST evaluation of the fuel fires on 9/11.

I recently earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from SIUE. Before this, I received 4 years training as an Information Systems Technician in the United States Navy. In addition, I spent some time studying computer Engineering at the University of Illinois.
The collapse of WTC 7 was an unambiguous and outstanding example of building implosion. It honestly baffles me how anyone could not see this. WTC 1 and WTC 2 were demolished in an unconventional fashion. Top-Down style demolitions are rare but not impossible. What intrigues me about WTC 1 and WTC 2 is their complete destruction. The contents of the building were turned into a fine dust.

After seeing the 3rd tower fall I started looking in to how, why and when. I am nearly 100% convinced it was a controlled demolition.After this I looked in to the collapse of the first two towers. Again, I believe these were controlled explosions.After six years of study in to structures, I feel very confident in my observations and conclusions of this tragic event

We said we would 'never forget.' Although, the stickers and t-shirts proclaiming that sentiment have all but disappeared the memory of that day haunts our hearts and memories. The generations of young people born within a few years of 9-11 need to be educated about this event, the most profound tragedy to ever occur to American citizens; and, they need to be informed of a truthful account of history. Though it is as unthinkable as 9-11 itself we must keep in mind the old adage about remembering history lest it be doomed to repeat itself. While I was not personally affected by 9-11 in that, thankfully, I was not in New York at the time nor had any loved ones there my conscious cannot rest with the lingering idea that next time it will be me, my husband, or a dear friend. Nor can my conscious rest in the belief (supported by the evidence of these courageous architects and engineers) that the people who did lose their lives and their loved ones have not been told the truth and have not received justice.

From all the information I have seen and read it is clear to me that;Explosives were used to bring down all three buildings into their own footprintS .No plane hit the Pentagon - it was a missile + explosives. No plane crashed in Pennsylvania where they said it did - the ground scar is visible in aerial photo from 1994. Evidence that I found convincing: Physicist Jones' work on nanothermite, molten steel pouring out of building, 45 degree angle cuts in the main columns, molten steel in the basement weeks after the event, dust coming of building as it shakes from a bomb going off seconds before plane hits - as per the janitors story of a bomb going off in the basement.

I am not a engineer but anyone with common sense could see something is very wrong with the official story. What is surprising is that nothing after 20 years has been done about it, and it looks like nothing will be. I smell gate keepers in the mix holding up the show .
It is quite obvious with even a Cursory observation, that building 7 was a planned demolition. The hard part is to bypass the dumbing down of the American people.

I am not satisfied with the investigation of 9/11 and want to know exactly what happened to all 3 buildings plus the Pentagon 13 years ago.....too many people were killed and too many First responders were injured and have died from being exposed to the devastation that brought those buildings down! The American public MUST know who and what were behind this great tragedy.

I have spent countless hours reading articles, data from engineers and contractors, and watching documentaries which all lead me to believe that the official 9-11 story is just that, a story. I want the truth spoken out loud for all to hear!
Thermite was used. I want to know why and how. Building 7 fell, why? It was reported on BEFORE it fell, why? Why the buildings straight down when it was mathematically impossible and they were built not to do that? Why did Bush just sit there when he was told we were under 'attack'? Why were the planes not shot out of the sky? How did paper passports survive the crash but no plane pieces were ever found at the Pentagon or in that field? Why did rescue workers and regular people report on hearing explosions while inside the WTC? Nothing adds up!!

The images of the WTC 7 collapse strongly suggest a case of controlled demolition. Since the official reports state false statements about the collapse of this building an independent investigation is needed. I do not have any complex conspiracy theories but the official reports just cannot be correct.

It's true I am not a physicist, but when large, high rise steel buildings disappear into the ground in seven seconds, it may be time to start doing one's own research, independent thinking and investigation into the matter, and realize that the media may not be an entirely reliable source of truthful information, on 9/11/2001 events. The more I reflect on the video footage of the twin towers 'collapsing' the more I move away from the notion that weakened structures within the buildings from airline impacts and kerosene fires could cause the two towers to experience global, uniform collapse via complete desolation of concrete, in a time frame that suggests near or at free fall speed. I don't think one needs to be an engineer or a physicist to see that this is patently absurd.

I was a surveyor/civil engineering tech the day of 9/11. I sat in a room full of structural engineers and architects that were calling it bad as the towers were falling. I am not sure what freaked me out more at that time, seeing the event unfold or hearing the guys around me debunk the event as it happened based on the technical details. Now I am far more freaked out by what the Government is doing since. Stay out of Syria!!

The official story makes no sense when you look at Tower 7's obvious controlled demolition with a few fires in the building that had been put out. I've seen enough footage and enough information to tell me that that there is a story behind the official story that has yet to be told and we need to find out who the perpetrators are and bring them to justice. Why? Because everything in this country has changed as a result of what happened on that day-----everything.

I have read many books and watched many documentaries on the crime of 9/11 and have come to realize that we as Americans were lied to by the media and the government. Thank you to all the organizations and people who still to this day continue to work to get to the truth about what really happened on 9/11 so that those who did this can be brought to justice for the sake of all of those who were murdered on that day in broad daylight and all those who have died since for reasons related to this crime.
I do not believe the 9/11 story as told by the media on that day and thereafter. I request that a real investigation into this tragic event be made and that those who did this crime are brought to justice.
