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.

A land surveyor often stakes offices and other large buildings and we sometimes monitor these and adjoining buildings during construction. Any observant person can see the redundancy in the building construction.
No single column failure would result in a catastrophic collapse. All three buildings fell into the path of MOST resistance, not least resistance. This is impossible without removing the resistance. This is why there has been no record of a steel framed building collapsing in the way the three Manhattan buildings collapsed. Close up views of the North Tower show the building disintegrating above the impact area and the top of the building is descending while the portion of the building below the impact is not moving, proving that a demolition is taking place. The South Tower is tilting into the path of least resistance and suddenly it collapses straight down into the path of greatest resistance. The North and South Towers were hit at greatly different heights leaving the South Tower with substantially more weight above the impact area than the North Tower, yet somehow the physics of this great (crushing) weight did not accelerate the collapse of the South Tower in any significant way over the North Tower. Building No. 7 is clearly, without a doubt, a controlled demolition. The fact that if there was not foul play then those in control of the investigations and the Justice dept would have no qualms in allowing a fully independent investigation. In fact, if they are as innocent as they claim, a fully independent investigation would exonerate them. This was about the Caspian Sea and the oil and gas pipelines through Afghanistan and the uncooperative Taliban who were opposing the CentGas pipeline.

Occupation: Electrical Engineer
Received a BSEE in 1958 while working at nights and summers at Douglas Aircraft Company. Initially I worked for Servomechanisms Inc for 2 years, then Nortronics on the Polaris Missile System for 2 years before joining Canoga Electronics. My work there for 8 years was on digital interfaces. I briefly worked at Sagetec, a startup, before forming Data Works in Los Angeles in 1973. Three years later it was purchased by Fairchild who moved it to San Jose. In 1978, myself and two partners bought it back from Fairchild and started ICS Electronics which specialized in GPIB computer to instrument interfaces. I was president and ran the company until was sold in 2018. Construction has always been a side interest of mine as we built two buildings for ICS and our own home in the Bay area. I am currently retired and doing some consulting for ICS.
The video about the collapse of 1 WTC has always bothered me. The radio spire on top of the building appears to sink before the building starts to fall This is very reminiscent of all of the building demolition videos I have seen. My second problem is the lack of plane debris at the crash site at Shanksville and at the Pentagon. I think the whole story about 9/11 needs to be reviewed.

I have done much research online of your videos and others that have posted substantial info at youtube. I have seen the video of Rumsfeld stating that there was trillions of dollars missing from the Pentagon the day before 911 and suddenly found the day after...yet the clerical areas of those records surely were destroyed? Though I voted and like Pres. Bush I was alarmed at the video at utube that is named 'Bush lied' and that is actually how I even found out about your work by realizing that we were lied to by Pres. Bush when Peter Jennings mentions that Norad was conducting tests.

I, and I think most people, watched the events of 9/11 on TV and had an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach the entire day. All humans get that feeling when they have important questions unanswered or are not satisfied with the answers they are given. As time passed it seemed to me that many in the USA had gotten past that uneasy feeling and I assumed that the Americans must have been better informed as they, as a nation, were quite comfortable with the Official explanation of the events of 9/11. My Canadian stomach has always felt uneasy whenever the events of that day come up. Now that I have learned about, and fully understand the psychology of cognitive dissonance, I no longer believe that the Canadian Education System is light years ahead of the American Education System ... but to anyone on the planet outside of the 50 States unaware of the power of cognitive dissonance who reads through the comments of an online article questioning the Official Explanation of the Events of 9/11 that had an audience of mainly US citizens, Americans completely come across as uneducated knuckle dragging obnoxious boobs. The people of the USA need to unlearn the, 'my country, right or wrong', mentality and learn the, 'right is right and wrong is wrong', mentality before the 99% good people let the 1% despicable people destroy the entire country. There are so many things wrong with the Official Explanation of the only 3 Steel Framed Skyscrapers to collapse due to fire ... all on the same day [9/11/2001], no less ... that only a very patriotic nation of good souls suffering from an epidemic mass state of cognitive dissonance could not see, and feel in their guts, the glaringly obvious lies.

The lack of answers and questions in the NIST report is outrageous and therefor need further investigation. It's clear that there were in fact a controlled demolition which leads one to think that the official statement from NIST and other government officials is borderline false and untrue. I refuse to believe that the buildings collapsed because of the airplane impacts alone or the statement that office furniture could melt steel, it defies basic science and psychics and the gravitational laws which we all are bound by. I sign this petition to show my support regarding a new and thorough investigation of the 9/11 events, we need to know who did this, why they did it and how in order progress and put it to rest. My heart goes out to those affected by 9/11 who demands answers without getting any, it's an insult to those who lost their lives and loved ones on that horrific day 14 years ago.

I work in emergency/trauma as a tech/phlebotomist. Concerned for my country and the lies our government is feeding us daily. We as a whole must have a paradigm shift in thinking and wake up to the tyranny.
After watching, reading and hearing footage and information on 9/11 over the years I truly believe it is physically impossible that 3 buildings with that much steel in them could just fall at free fall speeds with little resistance and straight down with total structural failure without assistance from explosives. Therefore I will not drink the kool-aid. I want to stand up for truth and put an end to tyranny and the United States diving ever so fast into the police state it has become.

I am not an architect or engineer but one does not have to be to realize the collapses of all 3 towers violated basic physics. For the building to drop at freefall for at least eight stories all of its energy had to go into accelerating there had to be NO RESISTANCE, NIST said that is what freefall would imply when they were still denying freefall of WTC7. You can look up What a gravity-driven demolition looks like on YouTube and if you measure the buildings falls on 911 there is no jolt like there would be in a gravitational collapse. One also does not need to be an expert to discover Paul Bremer's connections to the WTC's and to the Bush Admin., Rumsfeld's actions and inactions that day or the red flags in the aftermath of the attacks, the denial of evidence of molten iron and concrete and of explosions, the denial of freefall, the destruction of evidence, making things like the data on WTC7's collapse secret, Bush Admin. resisting any investigation into 9/11 for over a year then appearingbefore the 9/11 Commission only on the conditions that Bush and Cheney testify together not separate as requested, NOT Under Oath and behind closed doors. Even 6 of 10 9/11 commissioners have said they didn't get the information and that it was a coverup. There is much, much more but you get the idea there is evidence all over the place showing the official story is nothing but lies and omissions.
The videos of all 3 collapses defy the various official explanations 'experts' have put forward and the official explanation of the total collapse doesn't exist they merely state once collapse initiated 'global collapse was inevitable'. Their data showing how the collapse of WTC7 started is secret and been denied when requested under FOIA by a registered engineer. They found evidence of steel that was attacked by oxidation and sulfidation and melted during the FEMA investigation and had plenty of eyewitness testimony and sound evidence of explosions yet NIST did not test for explosives or incendiaries and NIST's John Gross denied there was any evidence of molten steel, he didn't want to look at the evidence either. The oral histories of the firemen that had a lot of references to explosions weren't released until 2005 because of a lawsuit and after the 9/11 Commission was already over they didn't include those references in the Commission.

The scientific evidence presented by the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 truth makes a very, very strong case for an independent investigation to uncover the truth. It is clear there has been a cover up at the highest levels of government.

I am neither an engineer nor an architect. My education is in music and special education. I am, however, a keen observer.
I watched the live footage when the jets hit the two towers. I also noted the explosions from lower in the buildings, as well as the other building. There was no contact between the planes and the other building. Nothing from the twin towers hit that building. Other than demolition, there was no reason for that building to fall down.

I am not an Architect or Engineer but with the amount of evidence that is available, the official story for how the 2 WTC towers fell is just laughable and the supposed story for how Building 7 fell is just an insult to the intelligence of everyone on Earth.
There is literally mountains and mountains of evidence on 9/11, too much to list here but for me some of the most damning evidence is: the fact the towers fell at all! Building 7 in free fall for 2.25 seconds, FEMA appendix C, thermate and iron microspheres found in all WTC dust samples, molten metal and extremely high temperatures, the government not wanting to investigate at all and then after stalling for over a year the government impedes the investigation, many witnesses to explosions and video evidence of explosions simply suppressed and denied, NIST REFUSING to test for explosives and sulfidation even after FEMA recommended testing and NIST said they would test all recommendations and then not testing for anything. And then Dick Cheney and President Bush only meeting TOGETHER behind close doors with the 9/11 Commission rather than separately as requested, NOT under oath, NO transcript AND kept secret. Something is seriously wrong here, these are just some of the huge red flags for anyone that looks into what happened on 9/11.
