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.

Bottom line, I do not feel that a legitimate investigation was undertaken. I write more thorough failure analysis reports on a daily basis than what was fed to the public and I. There is no reason for this whatsoever. This is the elephant in the room, and the American public deserves, and pays, for better than this.

I have been engaged in engineering, stress analysis, or managing stress analysis groups my entire 30 year career in aerospace.
In my experience with structural tests and analysis of strength capability I have never seen a structure just disintegrate or fail in an ordered sequence all of its structural members, joints, and fasteners from any type of thermal or mechanical load. This is exactly what happens, however, during building demolition events.Furthermore, the personal or professional accountability to understand the destruction of 3 towers on 9/11 requires more than just reading newspapers. It also requires the personal honesty to accept and acknowledge the discrepancy between the government statements and engineering data for steel, temperature, and history.

I actually worked at the World Trade Center Tower 2 back in the '80's and when I turned on the TV that dreadful morning of Sept. 11th the first thing I thought of were all of the workers in the basement and sub-basement levels. I was an Executive Chef working for Inhilco back in the '80's and spent many hours below the street levels ordering foods and designing my menus based on what was in season. To date, I have heard nothing of the potentially 100's of people working there who were incinerated in these rarely spoken about Explosions in the sub-basement levels. After trying to avoid looking at the horrible truth, I now have to admit that I am NO LONGER asleep. Of course these buildings were BROUGHT DOWN by controlled demolitions. And the amount of sophistication to pull it off had to have taken A MINIMUM of 9 months to a year to put into place. Elevator upgrades?? I think not!! That (The elevator renovation) cover supplied the context for which the Super Nano Thermite Gels and dry explosives were slowly put in to place over the period of...many...we will never know for sure...months...so that once placed this False Flag Terriorist operation could just play out, giving the Bush dynasty it's Gulf of Tonkin to proceed into WAR.

Graduated high school in 1963. Took several 'night school' courses afterwards. I have held many jobs in different mechanical fields just long enough to become proficient in them, then moved on to gain another skill. In 1979, I became a field service representative for a machine manufacturer, then a phone service tech & finally, I started my own service business. I retired in 2008.
With my mechanical background and good common sense, I knew the explanation for what happened in New York was impossible. Then, too, the little hole and small fire in the Pentagon, as well as the disappearing plane that was flight 93 here in Pennsylvania was just too much. I can't believe anyone could possibly believe any of their lies!

I am a retired senior Revenue officer, and former Head of the UK's Oil Taxation Office, which brought me into regular contact with overseas administrations, not least the US government. I have visited the US on several occasions and toured through seven or eight states. I have a great affection for the US and its citizens. On my last visit, not long before 9/11, I walked through the public area in one of the Twin Towers where there was an exhibition of exotic orchids in progress, and took a late afternoon/sunset return trip to Staten Island and back. The view of Lower Manhattan was amazing. In retirement I have worked as a lay judge in the Family Court.
I was one of the million people who took to the streets of London in 2003 to protest at the Blair Government's support for the impending invasion of Iraq. I was horrified that, in the wake of the WTC attacks, the US government declared a 'War on Terror' rather than take stock, and make constructive use of the international goodwill that was then available, in profusion. It was only later that I looked more critically at the footage of the building collapses and concluded that the official narrative was unsustainable. The 9/11 event has triggered unimaginable pain and suffering in consequence of the actions subsequently taken by the Bush Jr. administration. Establishment of the truth of 9/11 is essential in the interests of the health of the US body politic and of the whole world.

I will do whatever I can to make sure that the truth about what occurred on 9/11 is brought to the masses. I'm tired of being called a conspiracy theorist for not believing all of the lies that the media spread that day. I am proud to be an American and angry that a small group of evil people could carry out such a horrific act and let the citizens of this great country suffer for it.
I don't believe anything I was told about what happened on that day. While planes clearly hit the Twin Towers, there is no way that a plane hit the Pentagon, no way that a plane crashed at the site in Pennsylvania that was shown on the news, and no way that Building 7 came down from office fires.

Felt there were things that did not add up from the beginning, just the way the buildings fell. I have questions about the plane that hit the Pentagon as well as the plane that crashed in the field. I have never seen a crash site with no debris, how can things like the engines and landing gears disintegrate?

I'm just interested to stay informed and discuss. I had a fire that destroyed my home to have some experience of what happens with fires.
After having a fire at my home, I am mind-boggled to wonder how the papers were floating around the WTC, how did papers not get burned, yet pretty much no other remains to speak of from the building? Desks? Toilets etc? But Papers remained & didn't burn up? Strange.

With a science and physics background, I can understand the evidence as presented by AE911Truth. I also feel that I have an open mind and can evaluate what is presented. The free fall of Building 7 is obvious. Most people have seen the demolition of buildings. I try to leave out the emotional factors. I also try to eliminate speculation as to the instigators. I see a growing and maybe related link to the problems associated with the world unrest. The need for power, control and greed can bring mankind to commit unspeakable acts toward his fellow humans.

I have watched the film and realized that even though I remember watching the events on the Twin Tower collapse, I didn't consider that it could possibly have been anything but what we saw on the news. However, having watched your documentary and the stated facts, there is no doubt in my mind (none whatsoever) that there is any way that the buildings have collapsed due to the fire alone. Even just reviewing the footage, how can three separate buildings collapse so evenly? It's not the way that nature works, especially on buildings that have been designed to withstand an airplane attack! I am against governments putting fear into the people by staging an attack which has been used as an excuse to invade another countries and kill countless numbers of innocent people. I want to see an independent investigation into the World Trade Center attacks and have the US government be punished for what they have done.

Politics is, by definition, manipulation of the truth to convince the public. Science is the opposite - the search for truth no matter where it leads. If the unprecedented power of the military industrial complex, in collusion with the opaque largest and most militaristic government in history is innocent of the 9/11 disasters, why won't they enthusiastically come out and support more scientific investigation of what happened on 9/11?

God bless all who had their lives taken from them without reason. The North and South Tower should still be standing to this day, as should Building 7. Even if left to burn the damage would have remained to the top of the buildings at worst 50% of each Tower. For a building of that size and construction to fold in on itself from the bottom in 9.2 seconds after burning for a very short period 1000 ft above is an absolute freak occurrence and frankly impossible where science is concerned and yet I'm to believe on a certain day it happened twice within an hour. I believe the lives lost on 9/11 were lost for nothing.

Clearly a controlled demolition... sans doubt. Burning hydrocarbons, in an open air environment, couldn't possibly generate temperatures high enough to severely compromise steel support columns of the type used in skyscraper construction. But even if it could, asymmetrical damage could never cause a symmetrical collapse, much less a collapse at, or very near to, free-fall acceleration .9/11 was an inside job END-OF-STORY!

Well, after watching a lot of videos and reading many ebooks, I have concluded that the mass media produce much misinformation. I realize from the statements of experts that the 9/11 report by the US government is a hoax. Chemists, engineers, and architects say something very different from the US government report; the difference is like night and day. It is important that we be willing to devote ourselves to finding the truth. So be patient and take care. God bless you and the real America too.

If someone had shown me a video of any of the WTC buildings in their last minute, without giving me any additional information, I would have assumed they were being purposely demolished. It's strange to think someone could look at the footage and then believe the official story.
