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 saw it on TV - the second tower hit live. I immediately commented to other science professionals in the room the planes must have carried bombs that generated super intense heat - it was no 'gravity fall' or airplane fuel fire that punched the towers straight down like they were built with 0 eccentricity!!! But today, 9/9/16 I received my first AE for Truth flyer. I had no idea other professionals had so gathered to document what the trained eye knew to be true. Your flyer gave me the link I knew had to exist but had no evidence of - thermite!!!!

On 9/11, I was just starting 7th grade, throughout the day students were leaving class to go home, they were being picked up by their parents. The students in middle school, such as myself, had not been told of what happened, they only told the high school students for some reason. When I got home my father surprised me because he was home early. As I walked into the house I saw him watching CNN. They were just showing the video of the collapse and the towers burning earlier that day. He told me that the Department of National Defense, which he worked for, had sent everyone home after the second plane hit. My initial reaction after seeing the footage of the Twin Towers collapsing was: It looks like a controlled demolition. My father went on to tell me that Arab extremists had attacked the building by flying hijacked planes into it and that the impact of the planes had caused the buildings to collapse. I repeated again But it looks like a controlled demolition. Of course at the time I was only 12 years old and did not realize the implications of it being a controlled demolition. After watching the TV footage CNN had on replay, I later asked him Why would anybody attack a building full of innocent people. It doesn't make sense. He replied: Well that's Muslim extremists for you, they're just crazy. It just didn't make sense to me. That is all I really remember from my experience on the day of September 11th 2001.

Too many questions remain about the attacks of 9/11. Heat: My experience with temperature measurement and basic knowledge as an engineer taught me that to structurally weaken steel you need very high temperatures. These cannot be produced by burning jet fuel. Collapse: The collapse of all three buildings on 9/11, Twin Towers and WTC7, are unexpected in their behaviour. There is no hinging or falling-over, the collapses were unbelievably fast and complete. Explosions: People have reported explosions prior to the planes hitting the buildings. During the collapse there are indications on film that explosions may have taken place. Some of the dust contains traces of what is found after the use of nano-thermite. Reasoning from the other side, all of what happened as part of the 9/11 event can technically be organized more easily by elements of the US government. Motif could be found in the potential of financial gain and increase of power. It would be in the interest of a benign government to disprove this theory. Unfortunately, too many questions remain, too many to believe that the official story is correct. That alone is reason to demand an impartial investigation.

I became familiar with steel structures as a draftsman for Kerr McGee designing offshore drilling rigs from 1979-82. After spending 3.5 years to earn a BS mechanical engineering degree at the University of Oklahoma in 1985, the oil industry was in a deep recession. The next couple of years were spent developing and designing robots and industrial manipulator arms. 1988-90 were interesting years at Rockwell Rocketdyne developing rocket engine systems for Star Wars. Since 1990 the technical challenge of electrical submersible pumping systems for the oil industry has been my profession. Currently as Principal Engineer at Baker Hughes International I mentor young engineers and serve as a technical adviser for a wide range of system and mechanical challenges for the BHI Centrilift products.
The case made in these documentaries is virtually 100% against the official record and points to some very disturbing likely possibilities. A proper investigation is needed before some very dark elements in our government are able to deliver us all the way down the road to serfdom.

I believe the 9/11 events and the subsequent coverup were fully directed by many of the Bush 2 neo-cons and the extreme New American Century philosophy. The buildings of 9/11 were brought down using controlled demolition techniques, without question! The American public needs to hear the real truth about 9/11!

Worked over 20 years in design and fabrication of large Mobile Steel structures for port cranes.
Tall slim buildings bear high side wind loads in hurricanes, so they are inherently designed and built to sustain a multiple of their own weight at the columns. The top parts were weaker structures than the bottom section of the building. Top would have certainly destroyed itself at the first hammer blow to the much stronger and intact core columns. It is SCIENTIFICALLY IMPOSSIBLE that those buildings could have collapsed so fast and so perfectly vertically without something quickly kicking and removing the column joints from underneath; especially the core columns. We should have seen and heard a hammer blow, collapse of the top part on itself, and then a side slide of the top section, with the bottom part staying put. Instead, we saw the top perfectly intact dropping through a cloud of air filled with dust. Not only did 3000 innocents perish inside the rubble, but this country sent its boys to war on three more countries with hundreds of thousands more innocents dead and maimed because what really happened was hidden from Americans. The climate of shock and fear stopped rational thinking and made people believe convenient lies rather than face the difficult truth. It is the patriotic duty of the nation's educated and professionals to arouse and illuminate the public awareness into seeking THE TRUTH.

Before graduating from RPI in 2013, I've interned in architectural offices in Pennsylvania and New York States. I am currently employed in a small-medium sized architecture design firm in Westchester NY specializing mostly in small and large scale educational and commercial projects throughout New York and Connecticut. I've seen projects through from planning and SD to CD's and project management, meanwhile maintaining an IDP record. I plan to start licensing testing in the coming year.
The NIST report referenced throughout the official 9/11 commission report has too many inconsistencies with expert analysis and eyewitness / first-responder testimony of what happened on September 11th, 2001. There are too many repercussions from not putting forth the effort to speak truth to power and demand a new study be done on what happened on 9/11 and who was behind it. This is the next step we need to take to bring catharsis to the families affected by the attacks and justice to the people committed this crime 13 years ago.

I have a bachelors of applied science in electrical engineering. Although not a structural engineer, I understand the laws of physics and chemistry. For over 10 years I've worked on million dollar transmission and scanning electron microscopes, looking at nano particles. I have access to some top university and government research labs and Ph.D. Staff.
The perfect uniform pile drive of two towers and the identical collapse of WTC7 as a controlled demolition don't make sense. Molten steel and concrete were found, with months of high temperatures afterwards. The smoke and debris clouds during collapse don't act like a structure failure. The lack of debris is in question. The way the building seems to turn to dust even as it falls. The top section, being tilted when collapse started, should have, at best, fallen over the side. The inner core columns are non-existent after collapse. The whole thing stinks!

I have an IQ of 167, there are so many holes in the government's official story. I could make Swiss cheese. The list is long, it's so long and outrageously put forth by the smart people of our government, I get too angry to write it all down.
You would have to believe the jet fuel was very evenly disbursed,that it burned equally all the way around the building,which it did not do the one plane was tilted at an angle which would have dropped the fuel a floor or two below the right wing, then there's the trouble with interior office partitions which would have prevented the gas from travelling in all directions at the same time.

There is no need for an engineering degree to know that the collapse of the towers was a controlled demolition. The video evidence alone is enough to see the buildings falling without resistance. The 'jet fuel' explanation is a child's bedtime story. The office fire story is science fiction.

Left school aged 15 years to take an apprenticeship in carpentry. Was in an 'A' class in each year. I have worked in the construction, petrochemical and oil industry mainly in the past 50 years. I am currently working in a manufacturing/supply production to the construction industry .
From first seeing the collapse of the twin towers, I was very sceptical. It looked all wrong the way the buildings pulverised. The subsequent fall of WTC 7 made me sit up and take notice. Not only that but the Pentagon and plane plunge reports were clearly lies to me. I have followed with interest ever since and believe there is a huge agenda behind all of these events.

I have been paying close attention to the work that architects and engineers for 9/11 truth have been doing since the original PowerPoint presentation by Richard Gage.
'Free Fall acceleration through the path of greatest resistance.' The fact that anyone at all would argue that building seven fell as a result of office fires is truly absurd.

The abundance of physical evidence in defiance of the official narrative concerning what happened to WTC 1, 2 and 7 on September 11, 2001 warrants a fresh, independent scientific investigation in order to do justice to the victims of that tragedy.

Anyone with a brain that's capable of critical thinking can see the blatant deceit in NIST's findings and lack thereof. It is total injustice to humanity to cover up the truth of what really happened and to deny and/or distort scientific truth.

Native Texan recently moved to Colorado. I'm 50 years old and I consider myself an artist and a drafter. Currently in lockdown during the global pandemic.
I was 21 years old when 9/11 happened and I still remember that morning. At the time I really believed we were under attack and it was heart-wrenching to watch those towers come down. I also believed that our government handled the situation well, but that's all changed over the years. I've read and seen too much about that day that wasn't explained to us back then and probably never will be. But to think that our own government did this to its citizens?! It's so morally bankrupt and just so evil. I truly believe that we need a new investigation of the attacks by new people who want the truth!

Logic dictates that if you hit the top of a very tall building, regardless of the fire etc, that building is not going to collapse; and if it did it would not fall down neatly in a pile. It would topple and land spread across a vast area crushing all buildings in it's path. Also there would have been wreckage of plane parts everywhere, spread across a long distance also causing damage to buildings killing people, landing on cars and people in their path. I have never seen any footage of this anywhere. I think i saw a plane wheel once in a video or picture but it looked like it was placed there. Also how did they fly such large planes at such low altitude and control them to steer the way they did, that should be nearly impossible to pull off! As for the Pentagon, well no plane wreckage there either, and why was all the security turned off to allow planes to fly across America like that? 100% inside job, only a complete moron would believe otherwise.

Worked in the Oil and Gas Industry for 30 years and understand Oil rig construction and how structures just don't fall to the ground due to fuel fires!!!!
I have viewed the collapse of WTC7 from many angles and have come to the conclusion that this building was taken down with controlled demolition. The facts are plain to see; the collapse of the centre, followed by windows being blown out on the left side then right side, followed by complete failure of all supports the length of the structure. This can be only achieved by all points failing at the same second and not one column, that would have resulted in minor collapse and NOT A COMPLETE BUILDING COLLAPSE INTO ITS OWN FOOTPRINT - This was a controlled Demolition. With the videos and interviews of the people that were there, seeing / hearing explosions, added with Barry Jennings reports of explosions before WTC1 & 2 were brought down - this is concrete evidence of WTC7 being deliberately destroyed. Also when you have the building owner on film saying that they agreed to ' PULL IT' how can there still be any doubt on this subject? All evidence and Science points to one clear conclusion these buildings were deliberately brought down.
