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.

Following my BS in Civil Engineering, I ended up working 25 years internationally in upstream oil and gas. My background in structures as well as with explosives has helped me understand the issues regarding the destruction of these buildings.
While watching the first edition of Loose Change on TV here in France around 2003, I saw the collapse of Tower 7. I knew immediately that this was a demolition. And then I jumped down the rabbit hole, into an uncertain world. For me, the US government has no credibility at home nor internationally until it resolves this crime.

I earned my B.S. in Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2002. I earned an M.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. I worked in the defense industry from 2003 to 2008 at The Boeing Company as a Controls Engineer.
My main concern here is the lack of analysis performed in the Official 9/11 Commission Report, and glaring omissions such as the collapse of 7 WTC. The Commission claimed that 1 WTC collapsed in a pancake fashion (p. 308) and that 2 WTC fell in ten seconds and collapsed into itself (p.305). Given that free fall speed for the buildings would be around 9.2 seconds, and that the law of conservation of energy would prohibit such a rapid collapse under the pancake theory, the lack of scientific evidence and analysis leaves much to be desired. Furthermore, research on the WTC dust yielded highly advanced nano-thermitic compounds, indicating the true cause of collapse of the three WTC buildings was indeed through the use of explosives (Active Thermitic Material Discovered from the 9/11 World Trade Center Catastrophe. The Open Chemical Physics Journal, 2009). That finding supports the mechanics of collapse observed, including the coincidentally high degree of symmetry, lack of rotation or bending of the upper sections of the North and South Towers above the plane impact zones during collapse, and of course the speed at which they fell. This and video evidence of sequential explosions during the towers' destruction indicate that the twin towers were brought down by systematic controlled demolition. The nature of fall and lack of structural damage to 7 WTC also indicates an organized, deliberate demolition occurred here. There is more than enough scientific evidence to cause for demand of an independent investigation of the nature of the events on 9/11/01 and an unbiased diligent effort applied into discovering who was involved.

I believe the architects and engineers involved with A&E for 911 Truth have demonstrated beyond any doubt that the World Trade Center buildings 1, 2 and 7 were brought down using controlled demolition. I believe an immediate, unbiased investigation is warranted and must be thoroughly conducted to include all new evidence.

First, verify the facts. Leave the speculation to later. Based on the photographic evidence of the collapses alone, there are a host of issues that cry out to be openly debated until there is a complete and consistent explanation of events. Without a truly independent commission, speculation will remain rampant and conspiracy theory(ies) flourish. It would be even less likely that those responsible will be brought to justice if we can't agree on what brought the buildings down.

I have viewed many of the videos over the years.' The failure of the building in a near freefall manner should only happen if the entire structure fails near simultaneously. Even comparing it to the recent Surfside, FL apartment collapse where the floor layers ended up resting resting successively upon each other, one can see it was not a normal collapse. The non-symmetric damage would not result in a symmetric failure.

Since witnessing the events of September 11th, 2001, it has been my belief that the World Trade Center buildings came down, not the result of terrorist attacks, but the result of a controlled demolition. Many have speculated on the contributing factors to the belief that within the U.S. Government, there were dark areas responsible for the destruction beyond that of the airline hijackings. AE911Truth provides compelling evidence that these beliefs are now supported by science and experts in the field.

On 9/11, I watched the towers collapse along with the rest of the world. At the time I could not believe that they collapsed by the mechanism as explained in the media. I was convinced, albeit without proof, that there had to be additional explosive media present to create such damage. As the proof of a governmental conspiracy has surfaced over the years I have become an advocate for 9/11 truth, speaking to anyone who will listen.

A summary of the structural analysis of the twin towers, carried out by the firm of Worthington, Skilling, Helle & Jackson, which can be found in the 1964 files of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, claims : The buildings have been investigated and found to be safe in an assumed collision with a large jet airliner (Boeing 707-DC 8) traveling at 600 miles per hour. Analysis indicates that such collision would result in only local damage which could not cause collapse. The planes hit the towers on 9/11 at 440 mph and 540 mph, so the kinetic energy was below the design parameter. No collapse should have occurred. The temperatures of the burning jet fuel should have been around 360'C, which have never ever in history damaged a steel structure. That's why the firefighters went up the towers to knock down the fire with two lines, as we could hear over their radio. Those buildings were demolished with explosives, like 118 firefighters witnessed. Employees of NYC, Michael Hess and Barry Jennings, confirmed also hearing explosions in WTC-7, when they were looking for their boss over there, mayor Giuliani, who was already posted in a safer headquarter. They were lucky to get out alive. It's interesting that the 9/11 commission dare not to give any official statement on how this building could possibly have collapsed, because the level of junk science they would need to prove this would surpass anything they performed on showing the twin towers collapsed due to only two forces : a plane impact and fire.

Employed 1963-1980 by my father and uncle who were union masonry contractors and apprenticed me as a bricklayer, 1968-1972. I also attended 4 semesters at South Dakota State University, '68-'70 (2yr. industrial engineering coarse not completed). I was a Union Journeyman bricklayer from 1972-2002 and have received SSDI since 2002. I was also a part time musician from 1965-1980 and mandatoriy attended ROTC during my college yrs. Campaigned for George McGovern in '80 and was an anti-Viet Nam war activist around '69. Became politically active again in 1983-1985 against US involvement in Central America and S. Africa, etc., than again in 2003-present against US involvement in the Middle East, etc.
I protested against the Iraq war in 2003 and learned a lot about the US gvmnt. from a 'liberal' radio station out of Mpls., MN beginning in 2004. I began protesting against many US wars in 2012-present. I was a little familiar with '911 truth' during these periods. I very recently watched a video on UTUBE about the Iluminati which said that a certain kind of explosibve containing aluminum and hydrogen could melt steel enough to make a building implode-that burning jet fuel doesn't melt steel-that a relative of George Bush's was a head of security at the World Trade Center- that he left office just before 911-that a 3rd World Trade bldg. (#7) also imploded later that same day. Other 911 truth videos have moved me to sign up with your group today.

I only have a High School diploma. I have not entered any educational institution to obtain any degree. Instead, I have furthered my education on various book reading, from a very large genre of topics of non-fiction; True Crime, World Wars, Forensic Science, Criminal Profiling, Serial Killers, and Political Leaders, just to name a few.
I have researched a great deal in books, independent and public news sources, along with internet research on the events of 9-11 and have no doubt in my mind that this was a false flag operation with involvement of some very well connected and highly organized group of individuals for a wide range of motives.

The story about the two Twin Towers is 'possible' to believe, but not that of WTC7. There is so much inconsistency about it. Also, this building was never mentioned in the NIST Report. WHY??

2000 ' 2004: Grundschule Emst in Hagen (elementary school)'2004 - 2013: Albrecht-D'rer-Gymnasium in Hagen (a very good secondary school) graduation: Abitur with 1.5 passed (possible grade range: from (min) 4.0 till (max) 1.0) very good grades in math and computer science (info). Since 2013: Student of Software engineering in Dortmund. Witnessed on 7 March 2004, the demolition of the 'Sparkasse Hagen tower' (101 m/331 ft high) in my home town Hagen. It was a controlled demolition, but the demolition was so far not as good as the collapse of the 9/11 Towers.
I read several articles, saw the important frames, that show the collapse of the WTC buildings, again and again, watched hours of several documentaries and read the book (in German) '11.9. - zehn Jahre danach: Der Einsturz eines L'gengeb'udes' (in English: 11.9 - 10 years after the collapse of a building full of lies) completely. There are so many unanswered questions, obvious indications that the government is badly involved in this and so many facts, which are ridiculous in reference to the official story. For instance: 'What happened to WTC 7?' And, (more important) 'Why does the official Commission Report (600 pages long) not mentioned it?'

What is that thing attached to the second military looking plane that hit the WTC? You could have hit those Towers with 10 planes and they would not have collapsed. Unless they were loaded with thermite of course.

I have suspected it was a controlled demolition from the beginning. But after watching such presentations as this, along with watching many documentaries that also highlight crucial evidence, has led me to believe it for a fact.
