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.

I am totally amazed by how the towers free-felled like an ordinary demolition where you remove all the support structure at exactly the right time. That is also the case of building 7. which Larry Silverstein (The controller of the destroyed WTC complex) stated was pulled with the help of FDNY. And the fact that BBC had prior knowledge of the collapse of Building 7 and reported of its collapse 20 minutes before it actually happened.

I completed my Master of Science in Structures and Foundations Engineering in December 2017 from Cleveland State University. Currently, I am a Structural Engineer and an assistant project manager in New York City. I am responsible for performing structural analysis and calculations, preparing super-structure, foundation and support of excavation drawings, reviewing structural designs, performing field investigation and special inspections. I was working as a Construction Safety Engineering Intern at NYC Department of Buildings with Excavation and Interior Demolition Unit in Summer 2017. I have a working knowledge of STAAD.Pro, AutoCAD, ETABS, MATLAB, SAFE, SKYCIV, BLUEBEAM and Microsoft office suite. I possess an OSHA 10 and 30 Hour Construction Outreach Certification. In addition to that, I also took various Red Vector Online Structural Engineering Courses. I possess F01 and F60 FDNY Certificates. I have significant experience in overseeing a wide range of civil engineering projects.
I didn't think the towers would fall. As designed, the weight of the floors above where the planes had hit was being transferred around the holes to the columns below, and the way the building fell down was a complete controlled demolition. Not in the history of steel structured buildings has a fire been responsible for such collapses.

I have smelled a rat from the beginning, when I first saw the news reports on the morning of 9/11/2001. We have started a local organization to try to raise awareness in our area. So far we are having difficulty because people can't believe their government would lie to them even though they see it happening every day with less important events.
I said to myself on 9/11/2001, wow, that looked just like a controlled demolition. The victims' families need to have this crime investigated like any other. I have tried to listen to the official story and when compared to the real science of this event, the official story is a joke, even for a lay person like myself. There is nothing unpatriotic about requesting a new investigation.

My career after obtaining my engineering degree has been spent largely in engineering support roles, such as software integration testing and then technical writing.
If the official government coincidence theory about 9/11 were true and 19 Muslim hijackers were the sole cause of the destruction observed, then we should all convert to Islam, because they proved the POWER of Allah not just in gaining control of four aircraft and circumventing standard operating procedures on the ground that should have intercepted their flights, but also in breaking the rules of physics in heating and weakening steel, in uniformly collapsing the structure through the path of most resistance at near free fall speeds, and in pulverizing the structures and content into fine powder, a huge energy sink in and of itself well beyond what conservation of energy of the falling mass would suggest.

The big key when trying to educate a novice, it seems to me, is the collapse of Building 7. So few have even heard of it, and they are startled and initially incredulous when you tell them of it. This gets their attention and provides the titilation that encourages them to listen further.

I will always believe all these building came down primarily because of controlled detonations, and the planes were more like drones, etc.

Removal of structural steel fireproofing is not an easy process, it just would not 'shake off' from impact as the original report had stated. When ever we reinforcing an existing structure, we had to chisel the fireproofing off.

I am no scientist of physics or engineering, but even I know what the demolition of a building looks like! The most simple laws of gravity are learned at school at the age of 8 years. The buildings should have somewhat fallen sideways, not straight down in the controlled way that they did. WTC7....really....no plane hit that building so how did it come down like the Towers? Also, their doesn't seem to be any mention of the Pentagon? Was that not also part of the supposed attacks. Lots of unanswered Q&A's around that as well

It's horribly eye opening but I believe in what this documentary has to say. I also believe our country is in a bad place on so many different levels and feel as though our government no longer has the same goals it was once founded on. Does the government really care about the citizens of this country or do they have an alternate agenda to be more powerful and wealthy and are willing to pay with the lives of innocent Americans?

The evidence presented, that 9/11 was an inside job, requiring months of preparation, is overwhelming, objective and compelling. This, combined with all the other lies coming from the government concerning Iraq, Afghanistan, Al Quaeda, etc and news reports from Germany the week after 9/11, lead me to believe that the US government is at the bottom of this vast conspiracy.

I watched in horror as the skyscrapers fell. I was in my own country, my own living room and I realized how small this world really is. The scenes were devastating and the children at school the following day were effected too. The day had a surreal feel to it. I remember we were told what to say if it came up in class. This 'event' changed the entire world forever.

I'm 49, college educated with a keen mind. I've spent many years researching with an aim of restoring authentic journalism, and challenging the selectivity and lack of true context of the mainstream media.
This event became so pivotal to the illegal war in Iraq and more broadly the deliberated changes in foreign and domestic policies and liberties and it was such a crime it needs to be fully examined in the highest of criminal courts. For the first time in history three towers were brought down at free fall speed supposedly by fires. This not only contradicts the laws of physics, but the official story is an insult to the families of those who died. The first responders who are suffering medically tell a different story and the world has suffered the consequences ever since. A judge has ruled in Britain that for the British Broadcasting Corporation to be able to report that Building Seven had fallen more than 25 minutes before it actually 'fell' that they were indeed complicit with the terrorists whomever they really were. These reasons, coupled with the fact that no actual evidence has been examined in a court of law, therefore the culprits remain at large and should be reason enough alone to bring it fully into that arena.

I have been doing independent research on architecture, physics and how and why buildings fall down in a variety of situations (fire, earthquakes, plane crashes, demolitions, etc) and the more I read, the more I know that the official 9-11 story is a lie.
I am not an engineer but right after 9-11, after watching endless repeats of the Towers coming down on practically every television channel, I knew something was wrong. It seemed wrong to me, 'uneducated' as I was, that the Towers came down as they did, into their own footprints and at free fall rate. I did some investigation on my own and found that, yes, the official story does not abide by the laws of physics. Those buildings were set up to come down ahead of time by means of controlled demolition, and when you watch them fall versus buildings coming down in any structured demolition, there is no difference. Buildings that fall because of structural problems, based on what I have seen while doing research, do not fall at free-fall rate and do not come down as 'cleanly' but rather seem to fall down at an angle (and not, as WTC-1, WTC-2 and WTC-7 did, into their own footprint). WTC-7 not getting more mainstream attention would suggest that United Flight 93 was meant to hit WTC-7. I am just one of many, many people who wants an independent investigation into the criminal activity of 9-11. At the very least, the US government is lying to the world about what actually took place, because the 'official' story just doesn't add up. The list of odd events and red flags associated with September 11, 2001 continues to grow.

I didn't believe the Towers came down from the airplanes hitting them when I saw the Towers fall on that horrible day. I could not have put it into those words on that day but it just never sat well with me. It was like when you know someone's lying to you but you continue to allow them to talk and you just continue listening. After doing my own research, seeing so many other people feel the same way and over a decade of revealing facts, I, as a natural born citizen of the United States of America, demand an independent investigation into the collapse of the buildings.

Wittnessing the failure of rational physics from the very first time I saw these building fall, was all I needed to see, to realize that explosives of some kind had to have been used. The lower floors which had no damage offered ZERO resistance when the top 'collapsed'! We have no pile driver gravity effect on Earth. This type of physicis just does not occur on our planet.

I am a high school student who has watched the videos AE has produced and I have reviewed this evidence and written papers about this subject.
AE brings conclusive evidence that each WTC building was demolished using thermite and or thermate to bring these buildings down. It is also easy to see that each Tower offered no resistance falling nearly into its own footprint which defies the laws of physics.

I watch a lot of videos on the computer, one site (youtube) quite a bit. I shy away from corporate news. I know Demrocracy Now isn't perfect but do watch it daily, and donate. I used to watch public broadcasting, until they endorsed hydraulic fracturing (fracking) and accepted money from that industry.
The world changed on 9/11/2001. Americans were introduced to the patriot act, national defense authorization act, and peace time martial law. If Americans don't return to the scene of the crime (so to speak) and request that our government do a new investigation or out source it, Americans will not get our civil rights back. The families will not get closure, the guilty will not go to jail.

It's not possible for the Twin Towers to have collapsed in such a manner without use of explosives on multiple floors. And Tower 7's collapse, is clearly a controlled demolition into its own footprint from the bottom up.

After understanding the relevant events regarding Building 7 at the World Trade Center complex, I believe that a complete in depth and independent investigation of how that building fell is a must. I live near Tampa, Florida, where the tallest building is 42 stories high. If such a building here were to collapse on its own, there would be such an investigation. Building 7 was 47 stories tall. Why no thorough investigation?
