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'm a lifelong resident of HI, but have a brother who viewed the whole incident from several blocks away. The fact that the truths of this world may be completely different than the reality I perceive bothers me and I am always seeking a little more enlightenment. Life is good in paradise, but the truth, however difficult to swallow, will always lead to better educated decisions and hopefully a better world for future generations.
The slide show clearly details questions that need to be answered. This event has become a critical component of our world view and our country's perception of its role in the world and the future of billions of human beings. It is too important an issue to leave this many unanswered questions. We need a non partisan and, hopefully, non governmental examination coordinated by boards and licensing bodies with the technical expertise to analyze the events thoroughly.

It is my unreserved opinion based on my years of working in structural steel that the 9/11 collapses could not possibly have occurred as the government investigations have put forth. American Airlines itself is the source for information that AA Flights 11 (North Tower) and 77 {Pentagon} did not fly on 9/11. These flights are critical to the government's crumbling cover up! Without those flights, Bush and his murderous co-conspirators will have to revise the big lie. Len Hart - Uncensored Magazine June 22 2009. www.uncensored.co.nz As a Canadian with Canadian troops dying in Afghanistan a war based on the 9/11 premise, I call, with all people of good conscience, for a full and honest binding investigation of 9/11 and associated events immediately.

Modern steel-framed skyscrapers have never totally collapsed due to fire alone, much less at near free-fall speed in a straight-down fashion. The presence of numerous audible and visible small explosions lends credence to the theory that WTC 1,2, and 7 were all brought down by controlled demolition.

The case of 9/11/2001 is far too significant let go with so many, and a growing number of, unanswered questions. It is unfathomable that further investigations are not considered by congress; especially in view of the short duration, time boxed 9/11 commission investigation. Is this event not important enough for a deeper look? I think a permanent investigation is even merited.

I have worked in performance improvement a lot and failure is a key part of this process. I'm presently an engineering consultant.
The fall of WTC 7 is close to free fall. The building remains do not resemeble remains from fire, but rather collapse from other things. As soon as a person begins to look at 911 using basic physics, analysis of gravity and inspection of remains, it becomes clear that there are questions which are not answered by the offical government report. These questions have now been left unanswered for many years, reducing the ability of a whole society to learn from this occurrence. Engineering is about answering key stakeholder questions, because it enables organizations and society to learn. These questions need transparency and accountability so that we can understand what was successful and what failed. By not answering these questions, we are skipping society's learning and therefore accepting that society is more likely to repeat this failure. Therefore with time, it becomes increasingly important to search for answers.

My first thought besides horror, when I saw the disaster on tv, was no way, does a building collapse like that! And 2 at the same time! These building should have collapsed sideways above the crash place, and left most of the bottom floors standing. A masterpiece in perfect demolition! How many people in the world can do that? Later, when I saw building 7 went down, there was no doubt at all, that it was pulled down controlled. Collapse towards the center of the building, and almost simultaneously collapse of all walls. And still, I haven't heard and explanation why it went down? What

I find it to be completely illogical to believe that a fire fueled by building contents as in WTC 7 or even a fire fueled by jet fuel combined with the amount of structural damage in WTC 1 & 2 to have softened or melted enough supports for the buildings to have collapsed as quickly and completely as they did.

I have 23 years experience as a Firefighter. Over that time I have studied building construction as it relates to the fire service and firefighter safety. I do not believe the report from NIST regarding the collapse of WTC 7.
I believe that the evidence shows that WTC 7 did not collapse due to any fire that was in the structure. I do not believe the phony animation produced under the NIST report. Any computer simulation can be manipulated to show whatever the programmer wants to show. There should be an independent peer reviewed investigative study of the building to determine the cause of the collapse.

So painfully obvious that controlled demolitions at the WTC on 9/11/2001 were used and even more painful is the on-going, ensuing cover up by our complicit and treasonous, incurious, mainstream media. Fortunately the truth is not as fragile as our government and press would have us believe. Moving ahead to a better world can only happen when we are no longer afraid to keep our heads buried in the sand. Thanks to ae911truth.org for all it does. Until someone on the side of the official narrative can stand up and offer some compelling argument of how Newton's fundamental Laws of Motion are NOT being ignored (as well as all the testimonial evidence of explosives), until someone can refute the scientific evidence of controlled demolitions, until someone can rationally address how allowing peer review of the alleged computer programs that explain the collapses would endanger 'public safety,' I stand with the engineers of ae911truth.org. Keep up your great, courageous work. God Bless you guys and America.

Retired from a professional fire department after 32 years of service . Hired 1976 and retired 2008. I served as an E.M.T. for the full 32 years and was promoted to Ladder/Pump Operator in 1986.
From the viewpoint of a professional firefighter,I have absorbed every bit of relevant information,from every source possible,since that horrible day on 911. I am firmly convinced, that the world Trade Center buildings did not fall due to structural damage caused by the aircraft or from the relatively minor fires in all three structures. How do isolated pockets of firein one corner of a floor cause over 800 feet of steel perimeter wall to blow out at the same instant? IMPOSSIBLE!!!!

I enjoy watching the discovery channel on building demolitions and after listening to Richard Gage's 2 hour long video, it left me in a state of shock that some one could bring down these buildings on purpose. It's tough to argue against the facts presented.

I am not an engineer. However I do have some knowledge from constructions. I have worked as a carpenter and built a couple of houses. I am now working as a firefighter and in the studies to becoming a firefighter in Sweden we have to learn about constructions, building materials and how fire interacts with those materials.
It is extremely important that we know what effect fire has on buildings since we are risking our lives going in to the burning examples of them. The education for becoming a firefighter in Sweden is two years long and we study this subject to some extent. It is to the best of my knowledge completely impossible for the three steel frame buildings that went down on 9/11 to do so because of fire. Not only based on the fact that the temperature required to melt iron was not high enough but also because of the fact that they collapsed without actually anything there breaking the speed of the fall. COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE! I therefore strongly recommend another investigation to be launched. What has been said up to day simply can not be true.

From my experience as a firefighter and education in college physics, I cannot accept the official story of the collapse of the WTC buildings. Steel buildings do not collapse when on fire as some wish us to believe. The evidence presented by the AE911Truth.org web site brings a more plausible explanation.

I've only seen 2 structures to come straight down, both were deliberately brought down by controlled explosive demolition. In both, concrete was able to be turned to powder, but at no time have I seen fire turn concrete to powder.

The building collapse stunned me knowing fellow fire fighters had perished. Having observed many building demolitions, many red flags went up as I watched the collapse as it seemed to free-fall untethered from obviously compromised massive internal columns which came down also. This website has supported my personal conclusions that very un-ordinary events occurred Sept 11, 2001. I would be extremely satisfied to know the whole truth of 911.

They say these buildings fell down due to fire of office equipment. But bu code all office equipment must be flame retarded in manufacture all carpets must also be flame retarded so how is it that they claim that once the jet fuel burned off the building continued to burn at supposed ever increasing temperatures. Most FR chemicals start to work at 400 degrees F to prevent the spread of flames. The whole story makes no logical sense given the history of flame retardants in office buildings.

When I watched the buildings fall, from the limited knowledge I have, I knew that it was impossible for the buildings to fall the way they did. I have seen many controlled demolition and this was one of the best that I had ever seen. Text book controlled straight down drop. They could use this in text book demo classes.

It is my opinion that yet again we, the American public and the world, have been intentionally misled in regards to the complete story of the collapse and destruction of the WTC buildings. Obviously there is much more to the real happenings of this atrocity than has been officially given. I can only wonder why the American public has allowed this deception to continue as long as it has. It is of the up most importance that there be a new, separate investigation of the evidence and real reason for this tragedy.

I have been a Firefighter/Paramedic for 23 years in the suburbs of Louisville Kentucky. I have experience with structural firefighting and building techniques. My experience does not include high rise firefighting but I do have a basic understanding of the temperatures involved with fuel fed fires and normal room and contents or fire load that would be present in office buildings.
The evidence is clear. In my experience jet fuel and typical contents of and office building do not produce enough heat to melt structural steel. I have seen many times in my 23 years as a firefighter structural steel bent and warped due to extreme heat but never melted. lets ignore the twin towers and for the sake of argument assume that even though they were designed to take a hit from planes larger and faster than the ones that hit them, were brought down by the planes. Building 7 had little or no structural damage and only a minimal amount of fire. There is no way an office building with that little amount of damage would implode on itself...period!
