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.

It is physically impossible for buildings to have collapsed in that manner due to the impact of the commercial aircraft and resulting fires. There are many eye witness testimonies of large explosions even before the airplanes allegedly hit the towers. There are simply far too many discrepancies. An international external investigation should be undertaken into the 9/11 attacks.

Video footage of the WTC collapses look suspiciously like controlled demolitions. I seriously doubt that the entire reinforced steel skeleton of either WTC building could melt and collapse due to the heat of combustion of the airline fuel alone.

From the visual, audio, physical, and individual testimonial evidence, it is not possible to believe the official account of how the World Trade Center Buildings collapsed, most certainly World Trade Center Building 7 did not collapse from fire alone. The official account of the buildings' collapse is not scientific, not based on review of the buildings remnants, and woefully inadequate in explaining the mechanisms of the buildings' demise.

I am extremely concerned about the melted metal found versus temperatures found in a normal 'office fire', as well as the quickness and direction of collapse. A friend of mine receives full physicals every 3 years, paid for by the government, since he helped in the recovery effort; knowing that he could have/has inhaled metallic microspheres is alarming.

I attended Texas Tech Univ. from 1988 to 1997 and graduated with an MS in Electrical Engineering. My first engineering job was for Agri-Tech, Inc. in Woodstock, VA from 1997 to 2000. I designed the computer controlled hardware and software for industrial fruit sorting machines used by packing houses. I then worked for an Electronic Design Automation firm Silicon Metrics in Austin, TX from 2000 to 2003. I designed software EDA tools for microprocessor firms.
I believe the 3 WTC buildings that fell were demolished with explosives. We have many things working against us trying to get the word out about 9/11: 1. The public education system has moved away from teaching technical skills and is deliberately dumbing us down. 2. There is less respect for human life today than there was at mid-century, though respect for human life now is better than it was in ancient times. In order for people to want an investigation into 9/11, they have to care about the people that died. Many people I've met simply don't care about the deaths on 9/11. 3. These is less social capital today than there was at mid-century. Read the book 'Bowling Alone.' When people become aware of 9/11, their network of acquaintances are so limited that the word can't spread. People rely on the media for information and opinions rather than each other. 4. The lemming effect gives people the instinct to appeal to authority and follow others. Almost the entire argument against the 9/11 Conspiracy is the appeal to authority and the reluctance to look at the information and form an independent opinion. If most of the 80,000 architects in AIA don't agree with Richard Gage, then he must be wrong.

I took my degree in architecture from 1987 - 92 (5 years degree). Immediately after, I worked at an architectural office in Lisbon but quickly found my happiness working for myself, which I have been doing since 1997.
The WTC destruction, or better yet, controlled demolition and faking of a terrorist attack is the most blatant crime I can remember in my 50 years of life. I believe that if the truth is to be uncovered, it will be a decisive turning point in the way things work. I really am hoping for a quick resolution to this disgraceful situation so as to: give some sense of justice (if possible) to the victims families and to bring the real criminals to justice, signaling to all others that the days of impunity are over. This will be an hugely important precedent to change the derailed and asphyxiated American justice system.

I don't understand how the Towers would fall at all. If they would fall, how did it happen so fast? Finally, I don't understand what caused the other building to fall that wasn't hit by the planes.

It is very clear that the building was destroyed via a demolition. Buildings 1, 2, and 7 were in near free fall. This would be nearly impossible if the buildings were not demolished. Building 7 also seems to have imploded onto itself, another example of demolition.

Without a doubt, building 7 is the smoking gun. Furthermore, when you look at every available energy source at play - the kinetic energy of the plane, the chemical energy of the fuel, the chemical energy of the contents of the offices - it simply does not add up to even conservative estimates of what has been captured on film.

I have heard numerous reports on how the plane was not a commercial plane. I have seen comparisons of footage, in which there appeared to be contradictory information: the one plane went steeply downwards, and the other one (representing the same plane crashing on the same building) went a horizontal path. I also suspect explosives were used.

From a purely scientific perspective, nothing about the Towers' collapse makes sense to me. Add that to the traces of highly sophisticated nanothermitic particles in the dust, the strength of a steel framed building, and the subsequent wars being carried out by the US as a result of these lies, and there's a very serious problem brewing.

As an active duty flight test engineer for a tour at Edwards AFB working with test pilots, I am very knowledgeable about what happens to aircraft when flown outside of their design envelope. Speed and trajectory of aircraft impacting WTC indicate these were flown via signals coming from a source external to those aircraft.

I worked primarily as a microwave antenna engineer, starting first at the Georgia Tech Experiment Station where I was involved with the design and testing of radar antennas. I next went to Scientific Atlanta, working in their antenna group primarily on earth station design, manufacture and testing. Later I went to the Harris Corp. in Melbourne, Florida where I worked on various types of earth stations and satellite antennas. I was primarily an analyst writing and utilizing various Fortran programs. I also did some testing work and supported numerous special projects. I retired in 2004 and now spend as much of my time as possible studying physics and math topics. My primary interest is in relativity and cosmology.
When I first viewed the collapse of the Twin Towers and, later, Building 7, my first thoughts were that these were controlled demolitions. It was difficult for me to understand how these buildings could be brought down so quickly. Building 7, I thought, was especially strange since it had not even been hit by an airplane. I think my confusion about what I saw grew into skepticism over time as I learned of more and more inconsistencies with the facts and the official story. I saw the presentations that indicated the buildings were essentially in free fall (and symmetrical!) which reinforced my growing conviction that controlled demolition had to be in play. The rapid removal of all the material from the site also caused me to think that a cover up was ongoing. 'Loose Change' was an excellent summary of the events and, recently, I viewed the 'Scientific Method' presentation prepared by AE911Truth. After viewing this presentation I have moved from 'I think there was controlled demolition' to 'no doubt about it, there was definitely controlled demolition.' The facts you present are simply overwhelming. And I feel quite confident that I know who did it via means, opportunity, and motive. No names, but obviously (to me anyway) it was done by someone who does this for a living and has (virtually unlimited) access to skilled people and technology. Kind of narrows down the field a little. But I like your approach, determine how it happened first. And I have endeavored to emulate your approach and try and remain objective, review all the facts (or lack of facts) presented on both sides and try to verify everything to the extent that I am capable.

My first clue that there was something fishy in the official conspiracy theory came the first time I saw the building collapse. At the time I was teaching thermodynamics at Young Harris College, and it occurred to me that the horizontal propulsion of concrete dust and gas (air) could not be the consequence of gravitational force of the collapse. For one thing, the gas and dust blew out horizontally even before the building had began to descend significantly, and the force of the horizontal ejection was much greater than could be explained by the compression of the pulverized matter due to the vertical collapse. In short, I was confronted with either rejecting the ideal gas law and Newton's third law or rejecting the official explanation -- an easy choice.

I was trained as a physicist and worked as an engineer on mainly DOD projects for about 8 years until I could not take designing death weapons any more. At that point I made the transition into hybridizing my technical training with business positions.
The official position is that fire and gravity were the only two physical factors involved in the collapse of WTC 1 and 2. Since the big bang and until the end of time, gravity acts [acted/will act] down, down toward the center of the earth. So how can the horizontal propulsion of girders [and assemblies] weighing from 10 to 50 tons be explained by gravitational force which only acts DOWN? The only way that massive steel chunks could be blasted 600 feet radially from both towers was by powerful explosive propulsion! This absolutely puts the lie to the official story!

The report on the destruction of the WTC is contrary to Newton's Physical Laws of Inertia. It is a physical impossibility for the Towers to have collapsed in the method described by the 9/11 Commission Report. The physical evidence was illegally removed from the crime scene. One can infer, just from the removal and destruction of the physical evidence, that a massive cover up was being staged. Numerous Federal laws concerning evidence were violated without any subsequent prosecution. The NTSB did not reconstruct the aircraft that struck the Towers. Certainly the engines still existed as the fires from the kerosene are not hot enough to melt them. This is evidential as engines do not melt off of the wings of aircraft in flight while using kerosene as their fuel. This was the first time and the last time that the NTSB failed to attempt to reconstruct an air disaster. The NTSB went out of their way to recover as much wreckage of the Space Shuttle Challenger from the Ocean Floor as they could. The NTSB went out of their way to collect the wreckage of Space Shuttle Columbia and reconstruct it. This happened AFTER the WTC collapses. Obviously policy did not change. The excuse that the aircraft were destroyed just does not hold up to scrutiny. I have demonstrated that the engines would have survived.. The previous listed example is just one of the many inconsistencies with the Official Story. So I implore you to reopen the investigation to restore credibility to the word of the United States Government.

Although extremely discomfiting, I find the evidence presented by AE911Truth to be compelling, especially the metallurgical/explosives analyses and the physics of the building collapses (most obviously Tower 7). It is critical that the truth of the events of 9/11/01 be established, starting with a widely-established scientific consensus regarding the buildings' destruction, and following the evidence wherever it leads. While it is important that our government leaders be informed and motivated, there are obvious potential conflicts of interest in a government-sponsored investigation.

I have worked in health care and in research for over two decades, and also have training in medical physics.
As a researcher and a health scientist/professional, I am troubled and greatly saddened by the suffering and loss of life and health resulting from the events of 9/11. I am even more troubled by how easy it was to discount clear and convincing scientific evidence of how this disaster happened and how easy it was to sell official conclusions that defy the laws of physics and chemistry, to the media and public. Perhaps the poor showing of US students on math and science scores internationally was by design - how else could such an explanation even be presented to the public expecting it would be accepted? It boggles the mind. Moreover, I feel that the scientific community, especially architects and engineers, have suffered a harm that is akin to rape - and even worse, a rape at the hands of peers. How can another building ever be designed or built in the US until an explanation based on truth and science is released and accepted by the public? How can we assure those who work in steel buildings that an office fire will not cause their entire building to collapse at near the rate of free fall, when there is an official report stating that this, in fact, is what happened on 9/11, not once, but three times! I performed a small 'thought' experiment one morning while listening to a documentary on 9/11 - I tried to make my bed in less than 10 seconds. I wasn't able to do it. Yet 3 high rise building were able to collapse neatly in less than that time due to 'fire'. It defies not only scientific explanation, but also logic and common sense.

I have always had a penchant for physics and I have taken some physics and astronomy classes in high school and college.
The day of 9/11/2001, I sat with a friend watching the events unfold on the T.V. I knew as I watched it happening that something was not right; that buildings do not look like that as they simply collapse; and that buildings do not collapse at all from isolated fires. I did some research after the event and was vindicated to see that others knew the things I knew; and more so that these others were not simply conspiracy theorists, but architects and engineers, who could put scientific, factual explanations for the things I only knew through intuition and common sense.

I am a practicing physician and research scientist at St. Michael's Hospital, a University of Toronto affiliated hospital.
I am concerned about the official story that ignores basic principles of physics, basic laws of motion as well as basic properties of relevant materials that suggest very compelling counterhypotheses to the official story of what happened in the main two World Trade Centre buildings and WTC Building 7. I am concerned that large volumes of material evidence were destroyed right after the event. I am highly concerned that large amounts of evidence - chemical, mechanical and eye witness evidence refutes the official explanation that the Twin Towers collapsed due to the impact and burning of two hijacked airplanes and their fuel, and the collapse of Building 7 due to widespread scattered fires. I am highly concerned about the lack of any evidence refuting the much more consistent explanation that the buildings were brought down at near free fall by means of very organized explosives and incendiary devices that must have been placed throughout the buildings before hand. Given this evidence I am also highly concerned about the integrity of the investigations that were conducted and reports produced by NIST and other official bodies after the event. As a member of the international scientific community I support the efforts of the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth who are calling for a thorough scientific and judicial inquiry into how these buildings were really brought down as well as the role of the American administration and their official bodies that failed to follow the basic principles and required protocols of a thorough investigation of an event with such massive effects resulting in the deaths, and severe impacts on health and security of hundreds of thousands of individuals both in the U.S. and globally. I am aware of high quality medical studies published in prestigious peer reviewed medical journals documenting the degree of morbidity and mortality affecting hundreds of thousands of lives impacted by the events of 9/11 in both the US and globally in countries such as Iraq. I believe this further underlines the need for a true understanding of what happened for the entire New York and indeed American and international communities. One such study was published in the New England Journal of Medicine documenting the increase in prevalence of PTSD in New York City following the collapse of the Towers. This important paper documented the great impact that this incident had on the broader NYC community immediately after its occurrence.

Three mysteries still exist about 9/11: - the plane crashed on the Pentagon left nothing but a hole in the building, a hole of a cockpit size whereas gas is in the wings - the way the Towers fell looks impossible without an inside help, - Building 7 has not been touched by planes.

I worked as a cutter draftsman in the 70s. I teach math online. I taught English for 8 years.
Evidence shows blowout before each floor collapsed. This coupled with the straight down fall and the fact that the building with the fewest floors to prep going first indicates supposition.

I work at a community college teaching physics, unification theory of physics and consciousness, and alternate theories of the history of human civilization. I am a professional percussionist and sound engineer.
Per the evidence presented, which seems obviously valid, like video footage, it appears obviously clear to anyone with any level of cognizance, that the hits on America on 9/11, including on the Pentagon, were an inside job with means of destruction primarily placed on other than airplanes.

I went through about six years of college at various community colleges, and finally at S.F. State University. I left school, to get married, about two semesters away from obtaining my B.S. Degree in Physics. I currently have my own electrical contracting business in the S.F. bay area. I am involved daily with many forms of electrical control and troubleshooting.
I have been reviewing all different forms of data, both video and written, for the past month or so. At first, I was hoping to disprove somehow that the fall of the Twin Towers and Building 7, was somehow not a controlled demolition due to the alternative reason which would be implicated therein. The more I looked at all the evidence the more I was convinced that it indeed was a controlled demolition. My belief of this fact has become a knowing now. I strongly believe that the story the world was given flies fully in the face of physics...as well as any logic or reason.

Ex-Navy ET, professional Designer and Web Developer. I have been doing independent research and study in numerous fields and on a wide assortment of topics, including 9/11, for going on 2 years now.
I watched 9/11 happen live from the barracks while I was still enlisted, didn't quite believe what was going on then, certainly don't believe any of the falsified 'evidence' in the 'official' stories now. Anyone without an extreme case of denial can see when comparing evidence, video footage, and various testimony from eyewitnesses and professionals around the world alike that those buildings were purposely demolished. I believe the entire affair was a preposterous sham perpetrated with purposeful intent to deceive the public and further the goals of various special interests.

Clearly demolished with explosives. The greatest scandal of our time. We must work for a society based on truth, not lies.

I will be starting my 3rd year in a Physics BS program at the University of New Mexico next fall (2013).
Although I still have more to learn about physics (and engineering), and knew nothing about physics back in 2001, one thing is clear - the destruction of the WTC Towers is highly suspect due to the controlled nature of the collapses.
