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 was in New York at the time of the attacks it was not until I got home and watched the footage that I knew something was very wrong with the official story, buildings do not collapse like that unless it is a controlled demolition. I joined the NY911Truth movement shortly after and joined the DC 911 Truth group when I moved here in 2005.

The evidence and video footage clearly show a controlled demolition sequence. The molten metal, vaporised ends of structural beams, and the superheated vapour cloud after the demolition all buildings point towards the use of explosives.In my experience, the demolition of buildings is very difficult as everything is interconnected, and the do not just come apart or fall down.Tower 7 is also the biggest red flag, as no plane hit this building, and no mere office fire will cause a building made of steel and concrete to just collapse, unless it is done with explosives in a controlled demolition sequence, as can be seen in the video evidence.

I have over 40 years of professional architectural practice and service to the community. I graduated from Washington State University with B. A. in Architecture and received my architectural license in Washington in 1971. I later received licenses in Minnesota, Utah, and Hawaii. I still maintain my license to practice though I am semi-retired at this time.
Nothing that I have seen or heard pertaining to the 9/11 tragedy leads me to any conclusion other than that the two aircraft were not the actual cause the collapse of the twin towers. We will actually not know the true cause until there is an independent and full investigation of the tragedy that took so many lives. I have watched many videos of the 9/11 towers' collapse. I do not think that these demolitions could have taken place without some form of high level government involvement. But even if it can be shown that WTC 1 & 2 were brought down by the plane crashes, it leaves open the collapse of WTC 7. WTC 7 came down like a controlled demolition hours after WTC 1 & 2 and long after the small fires in it were extinguished.

First, verify the facts. Leave the speculation to later. Based on the photographic evidence of the collapses alone, there are a host of issues that cry out to be openly debated until there is a complete and consistent explanation of events. Without a truly independent commission, speculation will remain rampant and conspiracy theory(ies) flourish. It would be even less likely that those responsible will be brought to justice if we can't agree on what brought the buildings down.

Occupation: Aeronautical Engineer/Technical Consultant In Aircraft Leasing
My Education consists of a 4 year degree in Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Limerick in Ireland. As part of my degree I was fortunate enough to spend a semester at Georgia Institute of Technology, on scholarship, as one of the highest achieving students at my home university at that time. I currently operate as a Technical Consultant, primarily to the Aviation Leasing & Fleet Management industry.
I have for many years not been convinced that the cause of collapse of all three trade centers in New York, nor the wreckage sites at the Pentagon & Pennsylvania, are the result of impact by commercial aircraft. I fully believe the overwhelming evidence contradicts the official narrative offered in the 9/11 official report, and I wish to show my support in demanding a non-biased, independent investigation as to the probable causes of destruction, as the people of the USA, and the world, deserve to know.

I have a BS in Electrical Engineering from NCA&T and a MS in semiconductor physics from RPI. I currently work as a Patent Examiner at the US patent and Trademark office.
For the last 15 years, I believed much of the US government's account of the events of 9/11. However, after actually taking the time to do my own research I became aware of a number of troubling facts surrounding that day and the days leading up to 9/11. However, what really began to raise doubts in my mind was the way in which the towers fell. Although, I had seen the footage many times before, I decided to take a second look at the collapse of WTC-1, WTC-2 and WTC-7 not from the emotional or human perspective but through the eyes of an engineer/physicist. What I had failed to notice, even as an observer trained to examine events based on the laws of physics, was that all three buildings fell at near free-fall speeds with little to no apparent resistance from the floors below. This is physically impossible without the use of some form of controlled demolition charges. This realization shook me to the core and forced me to reaccess my world view and the version of history I had been given. I add my voice today to the many other scientist and engineers who are demanding the truth in hopes that if enough of us voice our concerns based on factual evidence and professional observation that the whole truth might be disclosed.

I have always had a strange intuitive sense about 9/11: that the official story was not complete. In my research as an intern (striving for licensure), I have watched hours of internet-based testimonies regarding 9/11. In the process, I came across your youtube video ''9/11: Blueprint for Truth-The Architecture of Destruction-114min.'' It simply doesn't make sense that if 9/11 was murder, then why wasn't it clearly investigated like a homicide case?

The buildings were demolished. Eye witness accounts, but more importantly my experience and education, indicates the towers were demolished in a precise, controlled manner. There is no greater calling for architects than to protect the health and welfare of building occupants. Denying the truth about 9/11 is contrary to our ethical obligation.

I've always been employed by large firms in general practice, with my last 20 years spent in construction administration work. I was supervising architect of the MGM Grand Hotel in Reno, NV, and project architect of Sheraton Grande Hotel in Los Angeles, CA.
I have watched two documentaries about the tower collapses and one about discrepancies involving the aircraft; I now believe that we have been totally lied to about what happened with regard to this tragedy. However, it's clear from the magnitude of the operation and coverup that it will be extremely difficult if not impossible to ever bring the actual guilty parties to justice. I think that this is but one example of the way that the 1% have taken control of this country. Forty years ago one of my college history professors said that there would someday be a revolution in this country and the government would be very surprised who joined it. I think that day is not far off!

I majored in architecture at U.C. Berkeley, became an architectural draftsperson and later AutoCAD specialist before becoming licensed to practice architecture in the State of California in the late 90's. My license is current and in good standing.
From the moment I first saw the tower collapse on TV it seemed clear and obvious that only a planned demolition could have achieved the observable results, so I was surprised by the conclusions of the official 9-11 report. At this point I reviewed the evidence, which only substantiated my initial impressions. The ample video and photographic evidence combined with a basic knowledge of structural engineering leaves little doubt about the collapse being caused by anything other than a planned demolition.

The current official report is a national embarrassment. The corruption must be exposed and everyone associated with the criminal execution and cover-up most be prosecuted. The criminals must not be protected for reasons of 'national security' but must rather be held accountable in the best interest of national security.

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 truly believe that the towers were demolished strategically, because, as an architecture student and graduate, part of my education included the potential strength of steel structures and construction used in architecture, and I know that steel is extremely strong and can't be destroyed by normal fires alone.

I cannot understand how a layman would believe the narrative of fire bringing down an entire steel structure in the manner that the 3 towers fell on 9/11. Anyone who has ever witness a fire of any scale would realize that it burns asymmetric and causes unpredictable and imbalanced collapses. The absolute vertical collapse of even one tower due to an asymmetric fire is a near improbability. Three towers on the same day, one with minimal fire damage is a mathematical impossibility...unless it were intentional.

I'm an architect not a demolition engineer, but I find it impossible to believe that two effectively identical buildings, hit asymmetrically, at differing levels, would collapse in a similar manner at near the speed of a falling cricket ball without 'inside' help. And as for WTC 7... you've got to be joking. Sounds extremely fishy to me.

To me, the statement about 9/11 is clear enough for any person that has been studying in the field of construction : no way the building collapsed by itself in so few hours and within this way, and impossible too that WTC7 been pulled down so quickly after the attack without any preparation first.

"I have lived in Las Vegas NV and I have observed many intentional building demolitions that appeared identical to the 9/11 building ""collapses"". When I watched the 9/11 attacks I thought to myself that those buildings were designed to withstand this type of calamity. Yet they collapsed perfectly, without harming any adjacent buildings, just like a controlled demolition."

I have a BA in psychology from Trinity University/San Antonio and a M Arch degree from the University of Texas/Austin. I worked in firms in Austin, Houston, and Dallas before working for 20 years as a corporate architect and project manager at Marriott International HQ and Sodexho (Marriott) HQ in Bethesda and Gaithersburg, MD (NIST was 'next door'), and Austin, TX. I currently have my own design/build management and consulting business in Texas and Virginia. I have acted as project architect, project manager, and project director on many projects in high-rise buildings in Dallas, New York City, DC, Virginia, and elsewhere. I spent many years managing projects in mid-town Manhattan while living in the DC/Maryland suburbs. Not long before 9/11, I was at the WTC meeting with the Port Authority to evaluate their RFP to manage the operation of the Windows on the World Restaurant. On 9/11 I was driving back to Maryland from Florida where I had received a national design award for a project I had designed and built.
On 9/11, my wife (and eventually our 4 children) were in our home in Frederick, MD as both the Pentagon and the Shanksville incidents occurred. These events geographically 'book ended' our home and shocked us all. We also lost a member of my mother's family (the McBrayer Scots clan, who came to America in the 1740's) at WTC 2. His name is Ken McBrayer. He worked for Sandler O'Neill & Partners. He was on the 104th Floor that morning. We are all 6 degrees of separation at most, of course, including the other million and counting who have been lost in the senseless, criminal wars and other illegal operations our country has launched based on a dark and terrible lie. There is more than enough evidence regarding the building collapses to require a real world, independent, and 'under oath' investigation into them. There are so many troubling questions that all of us, including the casualties, are owed answers to. We must demand this as citizens. Our nation, our constitution, and the world will never return to even a semblance of normalcy until the events of 9/11 are subjected to a genuine investigation. It is not yet too late. Justice is not just needed, it is absolutely required. Like so many others, I am shamefully late in coming to this. I always questioned the 911 Commission Report but was not totally aware of all the others out there working selflessly for an investigation. Being of an age to remember JFK, the Gulf of Tonkin, MLK, RFK, Wellstone and so many others almost leaves one too cynical and shell shocked to keep paying attention. My children, the arc of justice can be slow. Metanoia is painful. However, this must be done.

I remember quite vividly when the buildings came down ' I saw it on TV in real time. I was stunned, it didn't make any sense to me, especially that they came straight down. I asked many colleagues including structural engineers to see if I had missed something. No one had a good explanation. And I was unaware of any steel framed building that had collapsed as the result of a fire. I was not particularly aware of Building 7 until I saw the video at the AE911Truth booth at the AIA convention. That collapse really doesn't make sense. I don't know what really happened, but I am glad to know that there are lots of others with specific knowledge of building structural performance who are also wondering. The official report seems to be full of holes.
