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 achieved status of Engineer Intern from the Tennessee Board of Architectural and Engineering Examiners in 2004. Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering, Lipscomb University, 2004.
The official explanation of the the 9/11 WTC tower collapses does not answer many technical questions. Why did the towers hit by planes collapse? Why did WTC 7 collapse without being hit by a plane? Why did the towers collapse as if a planned explosive demolition was executed? How did temperatures inside the building reach levels that could melt steel? Why was the majority of material pulverized? A thorough, 3rd party investigation is needed.

I woke and saw the news of the Towers on fire. - - I evaluated the situation and the comparatively minor damage compared to the size of the structure. - - The flash heat of jet fuel is unable to melt protected steel. - - Although I was greatly disturbed by the destruction, I saw no possibility of complete collapse. - - I watched every minute of news and was completely confused when and why the Towers collapsed. - - Further confused why the collapse was perfectly symmetrical. - - Asymmetric damage should result in asymmetric failure. - - - - I feel an odd sense of confused repression of what I thought I held as a solid scientific facts of physics when I see or hear about 9/11. It bothers me psychologically. It's as if it's possible that gravity may not work tomorrow. - - - - Please, the truth must surface.

I have two degrees in architecture, one from Rio Hondo College, and a BS from Cal Poly at Pomona. I'm a licensed architect in California. I'm president of an architectural company with two divisions: 'MBA Architectural' and 'MBA Educational Horizons'. I've practiced architecture and have offered preparatory courses for over 30 years to candidates in the process of taking the ARE-NCARB exam and CSE exam as well as professional courses for practicing architects. I've taught at UC Irvine and some other colleges. I've taught in-training programs (ARE & professional subjects) for architectural companies and various AIA offices throughout the United States.
There is much to discuss about the events of 9/11, beginning with why it happened and who might be behind it. It was a major distraction from some events and announcements that were to take place that day; they would have revealed some truths about our world and some of the lies we have been told, among other things. We could also discuss building designs and how to withstand emergencies, evacuations, etc. The events shaped mainstream people's beliefs and prejudices; they induced tremendous fear in people and divisions between them.

I was an electro-mechanical draftsman for about four years in the late 1960's. In the late 1990's in another occupation working for a private corporation, I helped establish an international labor union. I served on the negotiating team for the first contract, representing about 100 employees. A collective bargaining agreement was eventually agreed upon, and I was then elected the first shop steward, remaining in this capacity until the union was firmly established. Working with others in 2003, I helped convince the City Council of Sacramento to pass a resolution affirming the Constitution and opposing measures that infringe on Constitutional rights (such as in the USA Patriot Act). In 2005, I wrote On 9/11 a Third Skyscraper Plunged to Earth: The Sudden Implosion of WTC Building 7. See http://www.wtc7.net/articles/kimball/thirdskyscraper.html
The Bush Administration defined 9/11 as an act of war - not a crime - so that an investigation could be avoided. 9/11 was a crime, and there has never been an investigation of this crime that has followed the evidence, and evidence of the use of explosives is overwhelming. Simple common sense should tell us that 110-story steel and concrete structures cannot be leveled in about 10 seconds each by fires (initiated by burning jet fuel) alone. WTC Building 7 was not hit by an airplane, and this 47-story steel and concrete structure imploded in about 7 seconds at 5:20 PM. WTC-7's implosion was not even addressed by the Commission.

The official version is a lie. The story that office furniture brought building 7 down is beyond belief. Larry Silverstein's statement that they should 'pull it'is a demolition term. The BBC woman reporter telling us the building came down one half hour before it did is also incredibly amazing.

I am a college student. I've always maintained a high GPA and I solve problems with logical thinking. The way 9/11 was orchestrated with all of the coincidences just doesn't make sense. Logically, none of the story adds up. I hate dishonesty as well as corruption. I want to see the world shaken up. I want answers. I want to expose the corrupt head of the government.
I knew very little about engineering before my digging around in to 9/11. Then I found out that the collapse of the buildings does not make sense. None of the story makes sense. I'm sick of lies and corruption. I do not believe that honesty is too much to ask for. In my opinion, the elite wanted to attack the Middle East for their oil.

This was 100 percent done by our government. There is no way this can go on. Everybody knows this is BS. There needs to be a cleaning of house, not a cover up.

It's clear to me, after some research, that we, the American people, have not been told the truth behind 9/11. It seems we have been used as pawns, manipulated by the powers-that-be, to push their unethical, immoral, and despicable agenda. I'd like to see justice served. The criminal minds responsible for the hundreds of lives tragically lost, for the thousands+ families/loved ones who remain devastated, and for the millions who've been further enslaved by the 9/11 devious plot should be exposed and held accountable.

Truth seeker, asker of questions, doubter of the 9/11 commission report. Not the smartest guy, but smart enough to ask questions.
There are too many holes in the official narrative of September 11, 2001. The fact that not one, but both Towers came down at free fall speed raises several flags (false flags if you will). But the most puzzling aspect of the events of 9/11 was WTC 7, which suffered no significant damage and was not hit by a plane. These points I make, as well as the rest of the movement, are definitely cause for a private investigation of 9/11/01.

The official account of the events of 9/11 is not possible. The N.I.S.T. Report's proposition that 3 concrete and steel buildings fell due to fire is totally bogus. This therefore puts the government in a very indefensible position regarding the facts.

Medical doctor. I am a scientist and cannot understand why WTC7 collapsed. It makes no sense whatsoever.
There is too much uncertainty about the reasons behind the controlled demolition of WTC7 that there should be a full and independent review to explain the basic physics/engineering behind the very clearly and heavily documented events of 9/11 given the massive loss of life that day.

Obviously a controlled demolition of at least 3 buildings with official incorrect narrative stating otherwise. All perpetrators to this crime remain at large and demand prosecution immediately. Also related is the controlled demolition of the Pentagon, which should be prosecuted as well.

I am just a normal American citizen who wants to do whats right, and that's to ask for a proper investigation into the horrific events of 9/11.
I have always felt that there is more to this story. I just want those behind these horrific crimes to answer for what they have done. I have no doubt in my mind that these buildings were 'pulled' as in a controlled demolition.

It really doesn't take a genius to see that it was demolition. Our eyes and science do not lie.

I once was a volunteer Firefighter and went to fire school in Wolcott.
I have watched hours of video on 9/11. At first I was skeptical and believed like most of the general public until I watched some very well documented videos explaining how a skyscraper is built to withstand fire, and heavy loads. Also, that jet fuel alone could not have melted the steel. WTC 7 collapsed the very same way and was not struck by a plane. Over the years, researchers have pointed out that there have been lots and lots of high rise fires even worse than WTC and none of them collapsed.

Well, I've studied in aeronautics to be a 3D designer/conceptualizer. Never worked in the field because of 9/11. I started this diploma in September 2001 and when I finished, no job in aeronautics. The field was all messed up and I had to change career. Now I'm finishing a bachelor degree in 3D Art and I'm happy about it.
I saw the event live, was at school and they opened the TVs for us to see. Saw the second plane crashing and the building collapsing. It affected my life a lot because I was in the aeronautics field and it kind of froze me in my tracks after the events. Early on I started to do some research and the first movie that really convinced me that this was false flag bunk was Zeitgeist the documentary. I was also indirectly affected by the Madrid Bombing. I was there for a school trip the day it happened.

We want the truth! Answer this: 'Why did Tower Seven collapse?' That building's collapse was barely covered by the media. Most people don't know a third tower collapsed. Watch the PBS Documentary 9/11: Explosive Evidence - Experts Speak Out Final Edition, 60min. The documentary proves explosives were in the Towers before the attacks. Once again, the media does not report these findings. Six corporations control 90% of the media in America....The media is owned by the wealthy elite. Sept 21st, 2001 - Gen Wesley Clark describes a memo he was given.. (10 days after 9-11) 'This is a memo that describes how we're going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran.'

Obvious controlled demolition of three buildings. NYC police, firefighters aware of the type of destruction but prevented from stating that. Almost immediate destruction of evidence of a crime scene with carting away of rubble, evidence of thermite, shipping of steel remains to China. Buildings were engineered to withstand large aircraft, office fires from burning jet fuel insufficient heat to cause support beams to melt ergo: thermite destruction of main steel support pillars. Thousands of qualified engineers around the world disclaim the illogical statements promulgated to the public by the 9/11 commission.

After all the research I've done, I believe that the truth concerning the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center Towers and the Pentagon has been deliberately withheld from the public. There are too many discrepancies and unanswered questions about what happened that day that can no longer be ignored. I want to be involved as much as I can with spreading awareness of the facts that point to establishment involvement and intentional cover-ups.
