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 join with those who call for a re-investigation into the official 9/11 commission report, which I believe to be a fraudulent and misleading document. I believe that in the interest of globalization and diplomatic endeavors, the truth will set us free.

From the evidence provided by AE911TRUTH it is obvious that there is more to the story regarding the investigation on the attacks of 9/11. I do not however make the claim that 9/11 was an inside job due to a lack of evidence, but the need for alternative independent investigation regarding the presence of nano-thermite at the locations of WTC towers 1 and 2 and the deliberate take down of WTC 7 at free fall speed leave many unanswered questions.

I don't have any engineering biography, however I do know a little about physics. No way can those buildings, the way they were built, come down like that.
Came down too fast for them not to be a controlled demolition. My friend works in the buildings as a janitor. He heard explosions before the first plane hit. It was a government job, through and through. Big government cover up, just like with Kennedy.

I was raised to use common sense. From day one, I have questioned the 'official' story. I dare say I doubt any real investigation will ever take place, the powers that be will not allow that to happen. I sign this petition, in support of the victims, and their families. Unfortunately, the American public has been dummied down to accept everything they are told. I have always said 'follow the money'. If seeking the truth is now 'politically incorrect' or makes me a terrorist. So be it.
'Follow the Money' This government was hijacked by corporate elite a long time ago. Our country is the terrorists. I say 'NOT IN MY NAME' You don't have to be educated to see through the corruption. The events of 911 clearly show our elected officials, and those who dictate their policy were involved with the controlled demolition of WTC 1, 2 and 7. The pentagon, missle, became their New Pearl Harbor. I used to be a proud American, not anymore. My USA is gone.

Buxted, United Kingdom
Occupation: Decorator
Attended a highly reputable grammar school in which I obtained 3 GCSE's in English, Maths and Art. Admittedly, these qualifications aren't anything celebrate but I believe my core skills, especially English (spelling, grammar etc) are of a fairly high standard as I was considered top of the class when it came to spelling, punctuation and also at reading aloud. I was, and I quote, 'number one reader' by my English literature teacher, Mr Boyden. Taking my stronger abilities into account, I decided I wanted to go down the journalism route. And so decided to take media studies at college and undertook a 2 year course. Unfortuantely, I didn't excell and although I acquired a certificate it was by no means commendable. My head was turned and sadly saw more importance to socialising and music.
I, Peter Joiner, hereby DEMAND a thorough, independent and full investigation into the destruction of both World Trade Centre towers, and World Trade Centre, Building 7. I believe, from the evidence, footage and first hand witnesses of the scene that the official version of events are highly fabricated. There is an insurmountable amount of concrete irrefutable evidence to back these claims. Indeed this is proven by the bizarre case of Tony Rooke, the film director who won his case against paying his BBC TV Licence on the basis that he had sufficient reason to believe that the BBC were, in some form, involved in 9/11. He based his belief on the 'infamous' clip of the BBC reporting the collapse of building 7 (the Solomon Building) twenty minutes before it collapsed. Indeed both CNN and Fox News reported it early too however the BBC is far more significant given the fact that you can see the building standing in the background at the very time Jane Standley was reporting it as collapsed. Astonishingly, Mr Rooke was approached by a member of the prosecution after the case, who offered to pay his '200 court costs.... this is UNPRECEDENTED and highlights the sheer strength of the evidence put forward.

The only thing relevant in my biography to this situation is that I have an ounce of common sense in my head. Now I know why my Mom always told me that common sense isn't that common.
Thank you so much for pursuing this. I have been heartbroken since 9/11 and flabbergasted as to why everyone doesn't see how so much of the official narrative is impossible. Especially the towers falling! Talk about NOT being able to connect the dots!! Supreme court makes unconstitutional ruling and stops the vote count....return of Papa Bush's Neocons....9/11....Patriot Act all ready to go....endless war! God help us all.

My construction background is irrelevant because of the size of buildings I built.
As an emergency First Response volunteer (Go C.E.R.T) it absolutely disgusts me to think that somebody in our own country caused this. I assume probably over money just sickening. Side note: Thank you for setting this up and doing all this information for finally trying to find the truth.

I believe that our government did it just like the Oklahoma bombing I was there and saw the six block damage in Oklahoma. We the people are not as stupid as the government might think. I do not understand why our government is determined to hide facts that we have the right to know and then be able to take the measures to get the right people in office to run our country. I pray that the truth comes out and that the right people are held accountable. Our country will fall according to scripture but it says nothing about us rising again .So before we are completely destroyed by those who want us brought down help the truth to come out.

I have seen the towers collapsing live on TV. Did not believe. One the most reputable engineering companies specialized in demolitions buildings, said one day after, it's impossible, exactly what you are saying. Also Alex Jones said it. Others believe that a rocket hit the Pentagon,not a plane?? The place was surrounded immediately and the debris collected, and no news about the black boxes till this date. Plus many facts.What's going on??? I think after 30 years, at least all the truth will prevail, it will be too late to punish any one.

I don't believe any of this information is necessary in order to investigate the truth about 9/11. The truth is out there and we the American people demand that the truth be told to us. Our Government is obviously connected to this destruction, and should be brought to Justice.
I 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.

Ive done all kinds of work, only one of any relevance to this matter is framing houses, just lets me grasp the concept of weight bearing and how the internal structure has to support weight of the house by erecting solid microbeams usually near the center. But can be distributed to multiple places I know how the twin towers were not any different, they had to sever all the core columns into molten steel to achieve the near free fall speeds the 2 towers did,
AHHHHHHH, So aggravating, people need to wake up, a steel structured building cannot just drop in freefall strait into its own footprint without major core column destruction, those office fires were NOTHING, dismal compared to the force it would take if this matter wasn't so serious the charade there playing with us would be laughable but I assure you I'm very irate.

I very quickly realized something was not convincing with the official news reporting of the 9/11 attacks. I need not go into the details. We who think the official position does not withstand close scrutiny know the main factors. The thing that surprised and disappointed me the most was the reaction of friends and work colleagues who accepted the official narrative so readily and unintelligently. This was compounded when they easily and readily adopted the official position that anyone who harbored any doubts at all must be a crazy tin-foil hat 'conspiracy theorist'. No amount of rational discussion or appeal to open-minded logic could penetrate that shield of irrational denial. The problem in the main seems to me to be be now a question not just of expressing clearly the empirical facts and laws of physics, but more of addressing the underlying psychological and powerful emotional factors that prevent people from addressing the facts openly and rigorously.

I have no relevant experience or education pertaining to this matter. I only want the truth to be brought to light.
I believe without a reasonable doubt that the buildings in question were demolished in a controlled explosive fashion and seek justice for the families of the victims of these atrocities. Also that anyone holding high ranking positions in the United States Government, The President, his advisers, and the military generals and/or anyone else involved etc. at the time of this incident if found to be involved or knowingly consented to this, be held responsible and punished accordingly.

The facts are hard to swallow, but simply irrefutable. This event affected my generation deeply and the story we were told was a lie. However difficult this is to comprehend, we must move forward as a people and hold the investigative organizations responsible for their blatant cover up and disposal of evidence. No matter your education & experience, anyone can understand why we need to question the collapse of these buildings. The explanations we were given were not based on the scientific method.
