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've studied modern architecture and skyscraper design and passed several structural engineering courses in college; the official 9/11 story seems unlikely. I've also studied studied politics and history, and as a member of the US military I have serious reservations regarding the official reported causes of 9/11. Even if the attacks were totally unexpected, and there was no civil defense plan for such events (like NY airbases or ground-to-air missiles), and there were no CIA or other black operations involved, we should still ask some questions: How did the towers collapse straight down as though planned to minimize damage to surrounding buildings? Why was the debris removed so expediently? Was it embarrassment? Quick cleanup to save our suffering the images of burning towers? Was it too expensive to renovate the buildings later? To avoid controversy and investigation they were removed from view asap, but by whom? FEMA? The building owners? There are many unanswered questions, from the Bush - bin Laden connection, to the FEMA - tower connection. Even if one structure failed from the attacks, the chances that all three buildings would pancake seems like nonsense. Perhaps one could pancake for multiple stories, but at a point the consistent fall would become lopsided due to the probability of resistance from numerous structural members, and develop a natural tilt. This tilt would produce torque, or rotational movement about points, and the laws of physics would tend to bring the forces down in faster ways to the sides, rather than through the entire strength of the remaining body of the building firmly rooted by numerous supports, including a central concrete elevator and stair core, and on a solid foundation.

I have not spent too much time technically considering how the Twin Towers fell but all media coverage and political statements for this disaster point to the fact that this is definitely not a terrorist act. The skyscrapers breaking apart was not a result of melting of the buildings framework but of possible external means of controlled demolition.

I was in state MA (USA) at 9/11 2001. Everybody was scared what happened. Lot of rumors like - how come that army jets did not attack those aircraft's before hitting WTC. I believed also that Al Qaida and their boss arranged it. a Year after, heard that a suspicious few number of people came to work at 9/11 2001 in WTC. I was still convinced that Terrorist does all the evil. Until I watched speech of Richard Gage and he technically proved that WTC was brought down by controlled demolition. After that I watched movie form Aaron Russo, I watched Zeitgeist where were also mentioned how those buildings fell down.

I am a 26 year old degreed Electrical Engineer and live in the Central New York area. I am currently employed as a Power Systems Engineer for a Company which is very well-known throughout the world. In this position, I focus on electrical distribution system analysis for power systems ranging from 208V to 115kV. I am presently studying to take the New York State Professional Engineer examination to earn my license.
I was a sophomore in high school in September of 2001. At the time, I did not really attempt to better understand the events any further than the basic information the media was providing. This changed in early-2012 when I was part of the electrical engineering team working towards approval from Con-Edison for energization of the new WTC2. As I watched the progress being made on the new WTC complex, I felt that I needed to go back and better understand what had really happened on 9/11. As I began research on the topic, I quickly came to the realization that the official explanation did not make sense. I am very interested in pursuing this personal research further and am grateful that I came across A&E 911 Truth. I feel this is a fantastic organization which is asking all of the right questions!

Didn't seem right from the get-go. Spoke to an electrical engineer during an inspection on the morning of 11 Sep 2001. He had not yet heard that the two towers had collapsed, and couldn't believe, from the simple facts we knew at the time, that aircraft impacts could precipitate a collapse of the World Trade Towers. Soon the President announced names of the highjackers who had crashed the planes, and propagated the story of Al Qaeda as the terrorism perpetrators. Right, and a highjacker left a passport that survived the pulverization of the Towers! Too many plain tall tales and improbable explanations surround the circumstances of that day. Now we can begin to understand that, as Barry Zwicker's Towers of Deception book sketches out, the traumatic shock of the spectacular experience makes the mind need explanation, and the initial propaganda catapulted by Bush and the media that most people did accept as explanation even if tentatively, causes pain when contradicted by countering evidence. Statements of the A/E professionals here provide ample brief summary of that evidence.

Building 7 collapsed in its own footprint at freefall speed. No other building in HISTORY has ever done that without implementing a controlled demolition. End of story.

I watched the airplanes go into the Towers 1 and 2 on the news that morning. As the towers came down I remember saying to my husband how they had looked like some of the implosions we had watched when bldgs had been professionally demolished. This is a travesty of justice in our country and I believe that there needs to be further investigation into 9/11. The victims, their families and the people deserve that much.

The sudden, free fall collapse of the twin towers and Building 7 most likely indicate controlled demolition with explosives.
