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 have an Associates Degree in Design Technology with a specialty in Architecture from Ivy Tech State College in Indiana, as well as a Bachelors Degree in Building Construction Management for Purdue University. I have extensive experience in the construction of some of the largest and most complex steel structures in the World. structures such as The Crystals at City Center in Las Vegas, and other miscellaneous Hospitals and airports in Arizona, Nevada and California. I have a very thorough understanding of how steel structures are designed and constructed to accommodate all forces associated with live and dead loading, and I'm also very familiar with ASTM testing standards, and IBC and UL code requirements related to the fireproofing of structural steel members.
For the government and its authorized investigative reporting entities to claim that the collapse of these buildings was caused by fire and gravitational forces is impossible, and not only an insult to the intelligence of the American people, but to all people of the World! The truth must be uncovered at all cost!!

The official stories are just impossible to believe, the exact same failure/collapse on three buildings, only two having been even struck/damaged. Falling in free fall into their own footprint (path of greatest resistance!). In fact, in Structural Engineering classes at Montana State, the scenario of an airliner hitting one of the WTC Towers was actually studied, (and determined to be safe). The professor discussed that this scenario was actually considered in the design of the towers, and they were designed to withstand it.

Ive been a boomer {traveler} ever since .
I love the U.S.of A., But I also know that you cannot believe what Washington puts out. OUR gov. is about, cover ups. I was working in Newark N.J. on a demo job on 911. Could not believe how those Towers could come down SO FAST. I figure some (prework) was done pre-planning as you may. The Question is who or what was the nature behind it all???

The WTC destruction is clearly a controlled demolition. The evidence is overwhelming and beyond doubt. The alleged conspirators had neither means or opportunity to conduct the crime. As 9/11 was never investigated as a criminal event the actual criminals have never been identified, but one can easily identify the potential suspects. This crime needs real investigation by proper trained, objective, independent police.

My intent is to find answers to the question that have arised on information regarding 1) How it is possible that an iron structure collapsed due to this event? 2) How did the structures iron get to a molten state? 3) How it is possible that, if true, evidence of thermite was found in the debris? 4) What caused World Trade Center 7 to collapse like it did? 5) If true, why was evidence ( structural beams) sold to China before being properly investigated? 6) Why the investigation from 911 Commission report did not rule out all possibilities from the structural collapse of all buildings?

No technical education or experiences. However, I am a thinking person who knows bulls**t when I encounter it and the official story is most definitely bulls**t.
Only idiots believe these buildings were destroyed by being hit by planes.Only imbeciles can watch the fall of these buildings and not know they were controlled demolitions. We, the American people not only have a right to know the truth of 9/11, we have an obligation to the Americans murdered that day and the countries falsely accused.

I can not say who was guilty for this terrorist act, but for sure somebody lies! I am from Europe and I believe the American people should open their eyes and make the State a better place as it is, because it is a big leading country. Unfortunately, the USA is still far away rom being the ethics and democratic country that really cares about the truth. But, it is a big country where also people like you are caring about the truth and fight for it! I wish your leader to understand it!

I remember coming home from school, I was 11 years old and my parents had the news on. I saw the second plane hit the south tower and didn't stop watching for several hours. I saw all three towers collapse and I remember seeing at the time that it looked like a demolition. Through the years I have dipped into and retreated from the idea that this was a conspiracy but I have decided once and for all, thanks to the commitment you have all made as architects, engineers, scientists, psychologists, activists and human beings... to bring forward a compelling argument against the official story and why it so badly stinks!

The key question is: what happened to the vertical columns? How could they all collapse simultaneously, with no bending, from a fire. Especially on the lower floors where there was no fire? There is no place for them to go. They can't just telescope into each other.

Other than Government education, my mother has taught me more that I could have ever imagined. I greatly appreciate now, the things I have been taught and taken for granted. I've always been different from everyone growing up. Today I am happy because of it, it has enabled me to see and understand things about North American society that a lot of people ignore or don't question.

Free thinker. Standard education left me utterly disappointed so I have spent the last 30 years investigating topics involving what is really happening behind the curtains of Government and commerce. Myself and several family members, friends and work colleagues discuss these topics all the time. 9/11 is pivotal to exposing what is really happening behind these curtains.
The official story is utterly unbelievable after no more than 30 mins research online. This needs to be discussed openly in the public eye and those responsible must be held accountable for both their actions and motivations for causing / allowing this to happen.

I found out the truth in 2008 when I was at a street fair and visited your booth and have been deeply troubled about the situation ever since. I have spoken to most of my friends and associates about what really happened and most cannot face up to the facts. I am afraid the 'people in charge' will never allow an investigation.

I do not have any degrees that would allow me to prove what actually happened, but I have seen buildings deliberately demolished before, and that is exactly what all three of the buildings look like.
There is no way that the World Trade Center buildings were brought down by just airplanes crashing into them. Something else was at play, and the people who lost family member's have the right to know the truth.

I am university educated and have enough life experience to realise that their is an urgent need to pursue the truth in the case of the events of 9/11 2001.
There is no logical explanation put forward by the US government as to why and how the twin towers collapsed. Scientists, engineers, and anyone capable of rational thought can see that there needs to be a fresh unbiased enquiry into this event. To not do so represents the biggest threat to democracy and truth in history. Tens of thousands have died as a result of actions taken due to this event. Demand justice now.

I have degrees in biochemistry and applied linguistics. More importantly, I have enough common sense to understand that the official narrative is untrue and meant to deceive the public. The powers responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent New Yorkers and others on flights opened the doors for both the destruction of middle eastern peoples and their societies (for political and economic gain), as well as the removal of constitutional protections here in the US. Ask yourself who benefited from this carnage.
Educate yourselves. The fate of our nation depends on it.

College degree and worked many years as a chemist. No relevant experience except I work a lot with rehabbing old houses and understand basic principles of physics (every action creates an equal and opposite reaction (Aluminum wings vs steel and concrete), conservation of energy (plane fuel does not burn for 3 months at one site and go out in 3 hours at another comparable site).
I didn't understand why airplane fuel was still burning at Christmas time 2011 when I visited NYC. Also puzzled how the building 7 skyscraper fall directly in its own path to the ground? Makes no sense. I was very disappointed in the official investigation. Why weren't more resources devoted to investigating this tremendous loss of life, even if the story they came up with in the first week turns out to be an accurate one?
