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 have a B.S. in Applied Physics from Caltech, and an M.S. in Electrical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering both from the University of Michigan. I have two patents and several scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals. I received a prestigious Howard Temin early career grant from the NCI/NIH to fund my research in cancer and biomedical research during the past five years.
I visited NYC the weekend before the 9/11 demolitions and was lucky enough to see the Twin Towers before they disappeared from the landscape. I am fully convinced that Al Qaeda could not have been fully responsible for what happened on 9/11. I have watched 911 Blueprint for Truth and feel it is the most honest, lucid, and probable explanation for how those buildings were destroyed. I do not have any expertise in demolitions, but I understand basic physics concepts such as conservation of energy, conservation of momentum/angular momentum. There must have been additional energy imparted to those structures other than airplane impacts, burning jet fuel, and release of gravitational potential energy in order to take them down in the spectacular shock-and-awe fashion in which they were destroyed.

I'd like to know the truth about the 9/11 tragedy, what really transpired within, who shall be responsible for the lives lost, and when will the truth come out? Based on some technical and scientific analysts I've searched and seen on the net (testimonies and videos), it seems that the 9/11 tragedy was planned and executed almost perfectly (before, during, and after). This is evidently shown on the collapse (demolition) of Building 7 and mysterious flight 77 which allegedly hit and damaged the Pentagon. I believe everyone deserves to know the truth.

BS Mechanical Engineering, Cal Poly. I have an extensive background in facilities and systems for launch operations, including demolition activities. I've been involved in numerous accident investigations. I'm known for concise, thorough, unbiased investigations with a personal determination to get to the bottom line despite initial outward appearances.
I have questioned the official explanation from the beginning, because the video-graphic evidence did not support the story line. It was clear to me from the beginning that the twin towers were imploded. Further, there is no engineering evidence that Building #7 would fail catastrophically from fires. It is my opinion that a third plane was scheduled to hit Building #7, but crashed in Pennsylvania instead. The implosion and subsequent lack of reporting raises too many questions to be ignored!

The evidence of explosive demolition of all three buildings on 9/11 is overwhelming. Hearing booms recorded on video from across the Hudson river was originally the most compelling piece of evidence for me. But recent revelations of the presence of nano-thermite chips in the dust samples have not only reinforced the demolition hypothesis but have also explained many mysterious aspects of the collapse, including flowing molten metal, melted cars, and the high temperature of the pile for month afterwards.

The only formal education I have is grade school, however being in the audio visual industry I have had the opportunity to sit in many meetings and conferences of various topics which were typically attended by the tops in their fields. I spend a lot of time conducting research on the internet and learning what is needed to understand that research. I have spent the better part of 5 years going through the available data with regards to the attacks on 9-11.
While I cannot say with confidence whom is specifically responsible for the planning and execution of the attack on 9-11, I can definitely say that all three buildings were ultimately brought down with explosives. This is supported by several factors including, but not limited to the following...1. All three buildings came straight down at or close to free fall speeds with little to no resistance. 2. The planes that hit both Towers One and Two, did so at different angles yet they both fell in an almost identical fashion. 3. Eye witness statements of hearing explosions on the lower levels between the time the planes hit and the Towers came down. 4. Visual indicators such as a molten substance pouring from one building as well as puffs of smoke being emitted from the first Tower at the same time as the second Tower was attacked. This occurs prior to visual of the explosion entering the frame.

I grew-up in France until I was 8 years old, then in Iraq from 9 years old to 17 years old where I discovered war and atrocities. Countries from where I've traveled a lot are Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Kuwait etc. Still open on the world and interested in many subjects.
I grew up in a war country... How could I believe in 9/11? How could I believe that the army of the USA could let some planes attack the Towers? I've doubted till I saw the first pictures on TV and more again after all the lies that I've heard about it. I've never believed in propaganda since the war between Iran and Iraq and I'm searching on the net all information that I need to understand the NWO which is for me the 4th Reich...My father was working in a building company and he could not approved the way the Towers collapse...

The official explanation of what happened to the Twin Towers defies much of what we know about Newtonian Physics. It is, quite plainly, outside the realm of possibilities for this to have happened as currently maintained. Therefore, another explanation must exist.

It is obvious all the evidence was destroyed and no criminal investigation was even started when this happened. Three buildings fall down on one day and the builders aren't even brought to task? Come on. Gimme a break! Stop protecting the real perpetrators.

I will never forget getting up to everyone gathered at the TV looking at the smoking tower on the news that morning. They called off classes at the place I was staying. The fear that ensued and the panic and insecurity it caused the public and everyone i knew. I'd seen Michael Moore's Farenheit 9-11 but what convinced me was the evidence based documentary i saw on Hulu. I believe that only when the case of building 7 is reopened and re-examined by an independent entity and the real truth comes into the public forum will there be finally begin to be a healing for the American people and Veterans. Only when the real truth comes out made aware of the facts can there finally be any type of justice although it will likely rock the political and justice system possibly to the point of something never before experienced in this country.

I have been deeply troubled by the flaws in the 9/11 investigation and the refusal of our elected officials to recognize the need for a new study done by reputable professionals without any political restraints. Equally troubling is the refusal of the corporately controlled media in this country to adhere to their obligation to seek out and report the truth.

As a medical professional, I have enough education in the sciences to place more trust in the explanations offered by the engineers on your videos as well as sufficient doubt in the absence of evidence offered by the 'official' panel of 'experts' to support the creation of an objective panel to investigate the events of 9/11.
Everything I know about 9/11 is second-hand. At the least the official version stretches the bounds of credulity and would be an example of gross incompetence by professions that have proven themselves highly competent or there is a darker explanation that someone has attempted to cover up with a fair amount of success. We should always do our best to discover the truth otherwise we are all just 'storytellers'.

Steel does not turn to dust and crumble to nothing in freefall speed without any resistance so it's clear to me that all 3 towers had 'help' to collapse the way they did.
