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 amount of dust surrounding the buildings and as they collapsed, is evidence to me just in viewing this to prove there is no pancake theory, otherwise they would have been stacked up one on top of each other, or the wreckage would have been a huge pile of steel and broken concrete (not dust). Also, one of the towers was leaning over at quite an angle just as it started to collapse, and this leaning never continued. If it was a conventional building collapse, it would have fallen over, but it never made it to the ground without getting destroyed. Oh, and the fact that all these buildings fell at free-fall speed. Clearly controlled demolition. Building 7 is a clear example of controlled demolition, with large bangs and other claims by officials that the building was going to come down.

For several years I believed official story. Finally, a friend asked me to be open minded and watch 2 DVDs- one from Eric Hufschmidt and one from David Ray Griffin. It was obvious from these DVDs that the US government was lying and up to its ears in complicity! I was shocked and I still am. I wish you guys all the luck in the world in uncovering the truth and bringing to justice all the criminals involved that day. There is no way that jet fuel, which burned up quickly, could have caused the collapse of these buildings! They were blown up and the event was covered up by the media, plain as day! No question! With each floor being approximately 1 acre, with thousands of welds and rivets, it is ridiculous to believe some jet fuel could have melted steel and caused a symmetrical, free fall collapse.

The day of Sept 11 is stuck with me in my head, I remember exactly when and where I was that day, on the way to work in the forest with my crew. I watched in horror over and over as the buildings crashed down. I remember feeling that there was no way that those planes took those buildings down, that there must have been more. The government response was terrible and the investigation was flawed and hampered with from the start. There is no way that Al Queda could have orchestrated that to such perfection from a cave in Afganistan and there are far too many parallels with Bin laden and then-President Bush.

Thank you for your putting this forward with such precision. I know that our country has been involved with deceit, atrocities and cover ups in the past, with the JFK and MLK assassinations and that foreign policy is often involved as with the Gulf of Tonkin. Thus, the duplicity and betrayal involved with a likely planned demolition of the three Towers is not beyond the pale. I remember seeing newsreels of Pres Bush being notified of the planes running into the buildings and his being non-plussed.

On 9-10-01 I was about to rebook my flight when Newark airport was closed due to weather. My wife had me change from going to San Francisco to a flight that terminated in L.A. That original rebooked flight was United 93. As we boarded out flight on 9-11 I was told it was filled 100%. I asked again at the jet way once more and was assured it was filled. We got on and found at least 1/3 of the plane was empty. Never got questioned by anyone after being made to land in Cincinnati. I believe there may have been more perpetrators on that jet. I do not believe our government did anything but a huge coverup of the whole incident.

The information provided in the PBS Documentary is an educated appraisal by the Architects & Engineers For 9/11 Truth and the thousands of experts who support them, regarding the three buildings that went down on 9/11 (not just the Twin Towers). These aren't tin hat conspiracy theorists. These are scientists, architects and physicists. If we give the government more credence than these people, then we will never find a truth, nor do we deserve to.

Have done extensive reading on 9/11 building demolitions and been following the issue as closely as someone without a scientific background possibly could.
I don't claim to know what the truth is, but the story we were told most definitely is not it. There are far too many extremely large, once in a hundred years coincidences surrounding not only the WTC site but the Pentagon and NORAD.

Simply incredible to understand the facts being accepted as the cause for the buildings destruction. It would seem that based on this new science there should be patents pending on the new and improved, cost saving controlled demolition technique. Given the new science, has industry from safety prevention to insurance policies changed?

I do not see, how 3 buildings came down in the fashion they did one of the buildings appears a corner hit, why are there not bent twisted support column's every thing just went down to pretty much the ground, I accepted medias version till I watched zeitgeist and became aware of all the other abnormalities about this terror attack, but the first thing that made it click was the 110 stories interconnected 47 core column's, where did they go? from welding and cutting metal, I know how long it takes to heat steel, till it melts and how had it is to keep large areas glowing hot never mind melting it, the hole buildings core columns got white hot and melted and fell almost free fall, that's what always seemed strange in 3 buildings yet,

The U.S. planned attacks of September 11, 2001, are nothing short of premeditated murder of American human beings by the largest terrorist organization in the world, the ZPC, CIA, et al., and should be publicly tried and either imprisoned or hanged, along with everyone in Washington who has been complicit in voting for these illegal wars of aggression as a result of the fruits of September 11, 2001.

No formal college education but plenty of experience in seeking the truth.
For me there was a single moment where I felt there was something wrong with the accepted story. I was searching the internet for evidence about 9/11 as to form an opinion. I watched plenty of videos that tried to convince me from both sides (inside job/accepted story) and both made good points. Then I watched a video of the moment Building 7 came down. Suddenly, I was confronted with a part of me that could not accept that this was not an intentional demolition. I was convinced by my intuition that this did not happen as stated and of course that meant the rest of the story was also in question. There is no doubt this was an act of terrorism. The big question has always been who? We deserve an investigation.

Have always had a sense from day one, after the second plane hit, that was the red flag, gut feeling there was way more than what meets the eye. At that time I was still in a hypnotic state, still listening to main stream. Strangely enough, after returning home from a consciousness conference in Stockholm, Sweden about five years ago I stumbled upon Alex Jones on You Tube, thus opening the Pandora's Box and obsessive research on the real history of everything.
For whomever still has two brain cells firing together, the evidence is overwhelming. I know of no other catastrophe in the history of the world that has more.

It's time to end the 9/11 cover up. How can people be so gullible and believe so many blatant and obvious lies about this? I've been around construction all my life. I've watched buildings be professionally demolished. All three skyscrapers in New York were professionally demolished on 9/11. Tons of concrete and steel were thrown sideways. That can only happen with explosives. This is beyond any shadow of a doubt. I have profound respect for the work that's being done to tell the truth and to bring justice on behalf of the people who needlessly lost their lives and their families.

I would like to see someone compile a list of people who would have normally been in WTC that day, at work or whatever, and for some reason they didn't go in. I'm sure there would be a lot of legitimately lucky individuals who were sick or had personal excuses, but I'll bet there would be some very interesting names of people with not so legitimate reasons.

All my life, I have always been an avid reader of scientific research. I use rational analysis of the given facts.
Many years have passed, the evidence scattered and destroyed. Why? To me, there is no question some kind of pre-arranged explosives were set in place in all three buildings. Who are the perpetrators? A terrorist group, a foreign nation, or a US black-ops team? I believe it is the third, or why else has the government hidden so much from us. This had to be planned during the 1990's. Another question arises...

Never in history have skyscrapers of that height fallen due to fires. Even with jet fuel burning inside, there is no possible way that these three Towers fell without any sort of demolition. Building 7 is definitely proof of a demolition.

The visual evidence and analysis presented by the members of AE911Truth lead me to believe that all three Towers of the former World Trade Center collapsed into rubble on September 11, 2001 for reasons other than those described in the US Government's official account of the event. I support their petition to re-open the investigation that the American people may learn the real cause(s) for the collapse of those structures and the true perpetrators behind the crimes committed.
