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.

"On 9/11/01 I was living at my Park Avenue condo apartment in midtown Manhattan. As an independent early responder, I was at ground zero from day 2 through day 7, for a total of 66 hours on site. Unlike most others affiliated with agencies, I freely covered all parts of the scene. I circumnavigated the entire site 4 times, searched, photographed, warned many of the asbestos 'snowfall', informed non-professionals of the tower's structural system, met with some agency chiefs, and interfaced with 10 of the F.E.M.A teams that arrived. Soon after sunrise on 13 Sept 01, I viewed the remains of building 7 from the top of the exterior stairs on the north side of the plaza. Though at the time I could rationalize how the twin towers came down from pancaking, I was baffled how bldg 7 could fold in on itself so perfectly without damaging adjacent structures and leaving asymmetrical ruins. When I gave a live 13-minute phone interview with Fox News in NYC the day Bush visited the site, and methodically described the structural status of all the buildings affected, I may have been one of the very first people to publicly state that building 7 ended up looking as if a ""controlled demolition"" took place."

I am a licensed master builder. In the last forty-years of my working life I have worked on many high-rise buildings from the footings to the fit-out.
In my final year (1970) at the West London College of Art and Building, we completed a unit on the slurry-trench and the spread footings of the World Trade Centre. I know the Twin Towers could not fall in the manner they did, unless the massive footings holding them aloft, was first destroyed. It is beyond all reason to believe a jet airliner slamming in to the eighty-second floor of WTC would cause the footings to fail six storeys below grade, not possible. It is in the interest of all people on earth to know what happen on 9/11 and who the real culprits are. We need a new and independent inquiry into the death and destruction at the WTC on 9/11. After all, the happenings on that direful day have resulted in two murderous wars, which still rage to this day.

I am licensed in both NY (inactive status) and TX (active). My background is in civil and environmental engineering. I had worked on demolition of industrial facilities, however, not with explosives.
The manner in which the towers fell is amazingly similar to that of controlled demolitions that I have seen in recordings. The circumstances surrounding the collapse of Building 7 are very suspicious and need to be addressed.

It is abundantly clear that no official government sponsored explanation of how the three buildings collapsed fits irrefutable facts. Most obvious to me is the nearly perfect synchronized collapses of WTC 1 and 2 at near-free-fall speed through the highest path of resistance. It all points to controlled demolition.

Cook and skeptic. I believe if you follow the money, you will find the guilty.
Bankers and oil men were behind it. Everyone knows it or suspects it, that is why NIST says the money trail is not important, but it is important, probably the most important evidence of all.

We deliver Fitout,Refurbishment & Construction projects ranging from $1M to $20Million in value.
I remember seeing the planes fly into the buildings on the news when it happened and then the buildings falling and I had so many questions as I knew it was not possible for planes alone to have caused the buildings to collapse like the media represented. At the time I thought they would investigate it and later reveal explosives were found in the building but instead the focus changed to the 'weapons of mass destruction' and the need for a war in Afghanistan and Iraq. I've followed this story since it happened and I'm committed to the victims, their families and mankind to have the truth of what happened on 911 to be told so that such an atrocity will not be repeated ever again.

I have studied all of the available evidence on the internet and read various books on the subject. I have been particularly impressed by the calibre of people who have been brave enough to speak out against the official story. I can only come to the conclusion that some kind of controlled demolition was used to destroy all three skyscrapers on 9/11. Therefore there needs to be a new investigation, as the absence of controlled demolition as a serious hypothesis in the original one indicates a coverup on grand scale.

The evidence leads to it being highly unlikely that the planes could even fly at the supposed speed and that the building would collapse from anything other than a controlled explosion or demolition.

I read copiously. I attended an excellent liberal arts college in New England. I've taken in quite a bit of information 9/11. This was an inside job.
When I watched the buildings collapse live on TV, I knew they were brought down by controlled demolition. The science behind the 9/11 tragedy clearly backs it up. Only cognitive dissonance and criminal negligence stand between the citizens of the world and the truth behind the biggest cover-up since JFK.

I'm an American citizen aged 63 who is concerned by the misinformation/disinformation published by my government in hiding the truth about what happened on 9/11. I was formerly an RN working in ICU's, ER's and OR's. I was trained in the scientific method and to use my head in rational critical thinking.
I don't believe the NIST report is accurate in any way, or that the material frequently seen in the media portrays accurately what happened on 9/11 and that building structures, built to withstand hits from an airplane, could suddenly collapse and collapse in the manner the news footage shows.

History of studying science, math, engineering. Capricious tendencies beget a lack of degree acquisition. Does not defile my validity as a concerned rational human being. I know the Official Report is a fabrication. I seek true justice for my fellow Earthlings, and I seek to put the culprits of this heinous act behind bars for good. Amen
Free-fall of three massive skyscrapers does not occur when two airplanes hit the top of two of the buildings. The official story is obviously a fabrication. The true perpetrators of the act must be held accountable and, we must heal as a people of earth as a result.

The official report is totally improbable and based on all the alternative evidence supplied it can only leave anyone looking at it with one outcome. This was instigated by The United States Government. The atrocities caused on 9/11 have scarred the world. This needs to be looked at thoroughly and independently without any bias to either side. There is simply too much overwhelming information and testimonies to ignore here.

It took me less than a minute to make my first opinion of what happened. I worked in a car body shop to pay my undergraduate education. For about a year I perform enough oxyacetylene soldering to know that you need more that this oxygen starved fuel fire to weaken the massive steel structure of those buildings. Then it happened: a perfectly symmetric collapse of the first tower. I still remember my first worlds: 'No way, they won't make me believe this.' I am amazed that this monumental deception has gone so far without any serious questioning from any important media institution. We need a serious investigation no only on behalf of the thousands who were killed that day in the Towers but also the hundreds of thousands who have been killed, jailed, tortured, handicapped all over the world, especially in the Middle East, every single day since 9-11 in the name of this 'War on Terrorism'. We want to know who the terrorists were.
