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.

Considering the arrangement and size and strength of the concentric columns arrangement, the high velocity of free-fall of the towers did not seem to be correct.

There is only one way that Building 7 could have collapsed the way it did. That's if all the structural joints failed at the same time. Controlled demolition explains this perfectly. There is lots of other evidence that supports this theory as well. The most convincing is just the time study of the collapse of Building 7.

I want more research to explain what happened, at least with WTC 7. The video of its collapse doesn't seem to agree with what we are being told. My experience with structural steel in heavy machinery is that it would more likely yield than fracture and I don't think it would free fall.

The official version never made sense to me. I anticipated that explosives would have been required just by hearing a description of the collapse on 9/11/2001. Quick calculations I made based on conservation of momentum trying to convince people the official explanation was false gave a 120 second collapse time for a gravitational collapse & 35mph to 60 mph lateral mass ejections which are not possible if only gravity driven. Newton's 3rd Law required the complete destruction of the falling top of the towers that should have left 60 stories of intact buildings standing after a gravitational collapse ended. Energy available from a gravitational collapse was insufficient to explain all features of the actual collapse. Core columns could be seen disintegrating in sections after the collapses ended. Steel frame buildings, by design and properties of materials, could not fail from oxygen-starved hydrocarbon fires. The buildings were designed to withstand airplane collisions of the 757/767 class and had withstood natural forces far greater over the life of the buildings. In short, I'm an engineer and understand the laws of physics and the official explanation violated at least 1/2 dozen of them.

When I first witnessed the collapse of the world trade center buildings, during September 11, I could not believe this was the result of the airplane collisions, but as the media coverage continued and the story of the collapse was explained I somewhat accepted the explanation and continued on with my life without giving much more thought to the explanation. I saw the Blueprint for Truth on PBS and it revived my desire to review my thoughts on the events of 9/11. I started also doing additional research and readings into the events of September 11 and I am convinced a new investigation needs to be conducted to reveal the actual reason for the collapse of the buildings on September 11, 2001.

I watched everything that happened, including the bringing down of World Trade Center 7. This matter could be settled by simply reshowing that event as it happened with either of news anchors Peter Jennings, Dan Rather or Tom Brokaw. They reported beginning around 2:00 PM that the building was unstable and in danger of collapsing. They then reported that a decision might have to be made as to whether the building would have to be brought down for reasons of safety. Finally, at 5:00 PM, they announced the decision to bring the building had been made and twenty minutes later the cameras focused on the building as it was brought down uneventfully and without any surprise. Just show the old video tapes beginning at 2:00 PM and watch the event as it unfolded!

It is inconceivable that the World Trade Center buildings collapsed as they did because of fires as the public has been led to believe. This is not just an opinion, but a very well educated guess. Although I studied electrical engineering, Georgia Tech--as most engineering universities--required that I take courses in physics, statics, dynamics, thermodynamics.

I have four years worth of private investigation experience into the physics and evidence on 9/11. This has been helped by my partner and her Bachelor of Science majoring in Chemistry.
All of my research, including at least one thousand hours of reading and educating myself on the destruction of the Towers has led me to believe that they were brought down by controlled demolition. The scientific evidence is clear for all to see, those who wish to look for it.

There are videos available in which eye witnesses describe the lobby of building 7 having been destroyed before 9 am on the morning of 9-11-2001. There are no planes at the Pentagon or Shanksville. 100 story buildings do not self destruct into dust no matter what hits them. Imagine there was no concrete or desks or porcelain bathroom fixtures in the rubble after the towers fell. 9-11 was such a confluence of opportunities it's nearly unimaginable. The buildings needing to be demolished due to antiquated technologies, the purchase of them by Mr. Silverstein. The plans of PNAC to control the Mideast.

I have only a high school diploma, by way of a GED. I've taken a few college courses but never finished. I did manage to complete 6 semesters of electronics, with a 4.0 average and was on the presidents list all 6 semesters. Sadly, my financial situation did not permit me to indulge in education, I had to take care of the bigger things in life like eating, sleeping inside, having clothes, and a car. I was generally earning a meager living so I would not die broke and homeless, which is what I do now, except now I look for work.
I never, for a single second, believed what was said. I suppose we all have a very hard time trying to grasp the reality, the scope of what happened. I knew the whole thing smacked of deceit and trickery. The government counted on the confusion/horror/sorrow of all Americans to enable it to push their agenda. What person would even want to secretly, even if only to their own selves, admit that they thought that this was done by our own, to our own. As a nation we were raised to think that to have thoughts like that were unpatriotic even treasonous. This is what they counted on....how morbid that they knew the entire world would be in shock and that they could use that to propagate the hoax.

There have been too many investigations and allegations by independents that conflict with the reports given to us by the US Government and the Commission Reports. The United States Government is withholding vital information from public eyes. The real perpetrators of this crime should be sent to trial and judged fairly as this is the American way.

There is no doubt in my mind the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by interests in addition to those of Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden - by the facilitation, inspiration and cooperation of those in the highest levels of our own federal government. This travesty also transcends political party lines because both the Democrats and Republicans are responsible for the cover-up by allowing the tail to wag the dog while allowing lies to be told without a just and fair inquiry into the events surrounding 9/11, including a tremendous body of evidence which indicates without a shadow of a doubt that WTC buildings were indeed demolished by explosives. An excellent resource is David Ray Griffin's 9/11 Commission Report Omissions and Distortions. These people who masterminded this attack are masters of deception but the light will always overcome the darkness.

The way Towers One and Two turned to dust as they fell, more or less into their footprints, was indicative of controlled demolition, as was WTC Building Seven's collapse. Even many firefighters said they heard explosions inside the buildings before and during their collapse.

I have been and continue to be closely involved with the building of structures of all types and method including high rise buildings and steel frame buildings.
I know that fireproofing cannot 'blow off' as our government scientists suggest and in point of fact requires a concerted effort with steel edged tools to remove, it becomes very hard and very attached to the steel. Furthermore, molten steel was discovered and we know that the temps required to melt steel cannot be achieved in the burning of office furnishings. Sincerely, Gregory Hill

Having a background in Engineering and Physics I have concluded that the World Trade Towers 1 and 2 collapsed on 9-11-2001 were somehow assisted with explosives. AE for 9-11 Truth took the guesswork or any remaining questions after watching Explosive Evidence. It was 4 years after I heard about about Tower 7's collapse in the afternoon. Why was this information withheld by the major media? Clearly this building shows signs of demolition, free fall. Thank you Architects and Engineers for 9-11 Truth for presenting the facts.

I have been skeptical about the conclusions regarding 9/11 since the event took place. I studied CADD and physics, and later worked as a machine programmer, and was additionally the lead designer for building and department layout.
The collapse of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7 has been, and will continue to be, a perfect example of controlled demolition. I am not a demolitions expert, but based on the evidence I have seen, and my education, I can say that there is no way these buildings could have come down by any other means.

I am a US citizen for 23 years but originally from Guyana, South America. I was a teacher in the Primary and Secondary Level in Guyana. I worked in the Bauxite Industry in Guyana from 1976 to 1989 where I rose to the level of General Foreman. I got a Diploma in Electro/Mechanical Technology at the Worcester Technical Institute in 1998 and an Associate Degree in Science at Becker College, Worcester, MA in 2000.
I started reading up on the alternative positions on the events of 9/11 back in 2008. I swung like a pendulum, going back and forth from the official version to the alternative versions. The implications of the alternative versions being right was too much to contemplate. I eventually shelved the whole matter except those times when I had to go through the Airports. I revisited the the matter two weeks ago. I started reading up on the examples of False Flag operations. It was then I came to the conclusion that though far-fetched, it was not beyond any government to employ such atrocities against its people - they have, including and especially the US. Having allowed the scales of gullibility to fall from my eyes things appear in a different light. I would like to see a new investigation where the general public will have direct involvement in the selection of the members of any such committee.

I have spent the last two years as a Communications technician and sales engineer for Future Link Communications with certification from Avaya (APSS, APDS)
I've spent years arguing with people from all walks of life that buildings cannot collapse straight down with zero resistance. Even in the very unlikely scenario that they describe for Towers 1 and 2, it still doesn't answer any of my questions. Why didn't they test for thermite knowing it is one of the only substances that could not only melt steel but also continue to burn without oxygen? How did the three towers not fall over during the collapse? Why even after finding ridiculous amounts of evidence are they still openly denying what are scientific facts? How did tower 7 fall with minimal fire damage? Why have we never seen a clip of the plane crashing into the pentagon? Why was evidence destroyed? I can go on and on and on.
