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 would like to see more info on control groups which support AE911 data....meaning...in a professional building demolition has the presence of iron spheres/thermate been detected? Is that the norm? If WTC7 was brought down by mechanisms other than controlled demolition, then why are not professionals in the field of demolition lining up to patent these mechanisms (reductio ad absurdum)?

The events on 9/11 seemed very suspicious at the time. On further review, Building 7 is the smoking gun of 9/11. The building was obviously brought down by explosives. It takes planning and skill to bring a building down. There is no way the explosives were planted the day of the collapse. The fact that Buildings 1 & 2 leases were sold to Larry Silverstein, a developer, by the NYC Port Authority months before is also suspect. There is widespread knowledge in the real estate community that the twin towers were white elephants and both buildings needed significant asbestos mediation to the tune of 200 million. Silverstein made a 4.5 billion dollars profit from insurance claims.

It takes a basic understanding of high school physics to understand that twos building designed to take multiple hits from a Boeing 707 and continue to stand will be able to take a single hit from a Boeing 767, and remain standing. They will not fall straight down, at near free fall speeds minutes apart. Also two building struck at different locations will not fall in exactly the same way.

Experienced in almost every type of welding, 35 yrs in business. We do every type of structural welding (including thermite), all types of pipe specializing in purge process, all types of alloy welding, and are generally well versed in all types of welding with the exception of underwater processes.
When I watched the news and watched the buildings fall, I turned to my wife and said "that was an implosion." We do work on high rises and are very aware of how well those beams are protected. Also, there is not enough heat produced by burning jet fuel to cause any kind of steel failure. Some sag maybe but that would be the extent of it. No building collapses into it's own footprint without demolition.

I'm puzzled as to why only the buildings with the WTC prefix were destroyed. It would appear to be exact and deliberate where as surrounding buildings were virtually unscathed. Other puzzling points are the little amount of debris produced by the collapse of the two towers and why the paper survived the destruction and wasn't burnt when seen near burning cars etc. Why were hundreds of motor vehicles partially or totally destroyed when they were blocks away from the towers? Why were flags and trees not burned when the dust cloud rolled through the streets? There are so many unanswered questions and it's plainly obvious the perpetrators don't want the truth revealed to the citizens of the world.

I am an American. We need to know the truth, follow where the facts lead us. Determine the why' how and who and hold them accountable. People need to stand up for their right to make informed decisions based on the facts and the truth. NOT follow what we are told for the sake of those we place in positions of governance or that are placed in government/oversight, authoritative positions without being held accountable. Plain and simple, we need to defend our rights, ad way of life for others are working long and hard to take it all away and replace it with WHAT is best for THEM.

Any skyscraper or building under any condition can't be literally pulverized as a consequence of sheer gravitational force. Even less it can do it at free fall speed. The weakening point of steel is so high that it doesn't make sense that a simple airplane fire, as well as some office fire, could have been enough for such a vast structure to reach it. A structural failure can't happen at the same moment on 80 different columns such to explain the perfectly straight collapsing of the 3 Towers.

The official story concerning the destruction and death surrounding 9/11 is obviously a lie. Americans should know the truth of what happened. Those who are responsible should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Our constitutional rights should be restored in full.

The Twin Towers have shown, no doubt, to have been built in an excellent manner, because the impact of the planes showed no structural failure, let alone swing worrying. They were built really well to bear even a violent penetration of the planes in that span. Too bad that the United States is governed and run by the mafia and terrorist organizations, whose sole purpose is to protect some family businesses money and weapons, otherwise it could also be a nice country to visit.Le Torri Gemelle hanno dimostrato, senza nessun dubbio, di essere state costruite in maniera eccellente, perche all'impatto degli aerei non hanno mostrato nessun cedimento strutturale e tantomeno un'oscillazione preoccupante. Sono state costruite veramente bene da sopportare anche una violenta penetrazione degli aerei di quella portata. Peccato che gli Stati Uniti siano governati e gestiti da organizzazioni mafiose e terroristiche, il cui unico scopo ' di proteggere alcune famiglie produttrici di denaro ed armi, altrimenti potrebbe anche essere un paese piacevole da visitare.

Did not finish colledge. To me, in a system like we have here, as the stubborn highly moral person.. the degree, in a system like this, is an insult to my intelligence. Perhaps stubborn to a fault? Hmmm. Not sure about that one. Oh well. I give up. I will not participate in system full of lies and horror for big cash for big gangster criminals like we have running the show here.
It is painfully obvious that the owners of our mass media are completely lying. These people will be held accountable. It is also obvious that our so called leaders during this time are indeed responsible for this horrendous crime against humanity as traitors and have committed treason. There is no doubt in my mind, or their central bankers' mass media would not be hiding everything about it and lying also and they are now fooling no one. I am waiting for the impending arrests. Looking forward to having these ones held accountable in international court.

I wholeheartedly believe that 9/11 was an inside job. I have believed this for many, many years now. I have done my own investigations ie. reading newspapers, researching the web about 9/11, talking to others about it, watching the media coverage of it (over and over again) in the last 13 years. The facts? given to us via the 9/11 Commission Report, and through NIST do not add up!!!!

It's become very obvious that America needs an independent investigation into the 9-11 events. Not calling for this makes the government even more complicit in the crime itself. Not asking for more investigation creates the appearance of trying to cover up information and squelch the search for truth. Why not investigate this event as much as can be?

The 'official' account is an insult to anyone with an IQ over 20. It defies physics. The demolition with the use of explosives and thermite is so overwhelmingly obvious it makes me sick to see the US government purport this to the citizens of the world but moreover that it is still believed by most.

At one time I worked in residential construction, and for a short time in commercial construction. Although I have never been formally trained in the field of high rise steel frame building construction, I do have an understanding of the basic principals.
On Tuesday September 11, 2001 -- I watched the destruction of the World Trade Center on TV. As things were unfolding, I wondered about how many people had died, and I also wondered how they would repair the damage. Never in my wildest imagination did I believe those buildings would collapse. When I watched WTC 1 & 2 collapse, I knew there was something very wrong with that. When I saw WTC 7 collapse, I knew without a doubt that the buildings were demolished. Since that time I have spent countless hours doing research, such as listening to expert statements and watching home videos by eyewitnesses. I am extremely disturbed that my government could murder so many people and cause so much property damage without blinking an eye. A REAL investigation is needed, and those accountable for the events of 9/11 need to be tried in a court of law for what they did. If we can not do that, our freedoms and our democracy will keep being eroded away, and we face a very grim future as a nation.

Like most citizens, I didn't begin to question the 9/11 official report until I heard about the collapse of Building 7. The fact that Building 7 fell, as if it was a controlled demolition, opened my eyes and I started to question all the events of that day.

Too many issues were dealt with insufficiently, or not dealt with at all in the official report. The evidence was destroyed very quickly. I believe I saw a statistic that far more was spent to impeach President Clinton, an event in which no one died, than to investigate 9/11. Two wars have been started using 9/11 as a pretext, and without a thorough understanding of what happened and why, which still may be possible to ferret out, the initiation of these destructive processes was premature and possibly criminal. An honest, thorough investigation of 9/11 should have been conducted, was not, and those who were derelict in their duty need to be held to account.

The 9/11 terrorist attack on America, which left almost 3,000 people dead, was an 'inside job'. It was impossible for the Twin Towers to have collapsed in the way they did from the collision of two aeroplanes. Jet fuel does not burn at temperatures high enough to melt steel beams and horizontal puffs of smoke seen during the collapse of the Towers are indicative of controlled explosions used to bring down the Towers.
