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 have been involved in engineering and construction for 38 years. I had worked for the Defense Department for 8 years and held two secret clearances, and I had worked on the space program for four years. I come from a military/law enforcement family background, and I have always questioned the cover-ups involving the assassinations of the 1960's. I teach at the college level now. I went down the the pile to try and find a policeman friend who perished in the collapse of the south tower. We never found him. I also went to five firefighter funerals. In total, I lost 7 friends in the towers - 6 NYFD and one NYPD.
With my Defense Department background, I kept wondering where our fighter jet response was that morning of September the 11th. I also immediately suspected that there was something amiss due to the speed and the manner in which the two towers collapsed. As I watched them fall, my mind said: Does not compute... Furthermore, when the Pentagon got hit, it did not make sense to me due to it being the most heavily fortified building on earth. When Building 7 collapsed, I was then finally convinced that there was definitely subversion occurring...

By any objective analysis of the inconsistencies and factual evidence available to any member of the public; there is obviously a great divide between what truly happened and what has been provided as the fed to an accepting American Public via a cooperative media industry. In total, this represents a bloodless coup in America and until full disclosure is forced, the control of this nation by an unseen group of people and organizations will continue and will grow in its removal of civil rights and free speech. The window is closing each and every day, and the folks orchestrating this scenario are the most powerful and evil humans to ever walk this planet. It would be hard to overstate the ramifications of this scenario.

I Love this Country because it has given me and my family everything, and when I received my Citizenship I swore an oath to protect this Nation, our Flag and everything it stands for to the best of my ability.
I can prove to you that the Twin Towers could not have been brought down by aircraft - and, furthermore, can give you evidence in support of the theory that the Twin Towers fell by demolition. Key topics I will cover include: heat analysis, stress tensor analysis, chemical compound analysis, classical mechanics when applied to falling buildings, specific video sequencing comparison charts for building collapse by demolition versus building collapse by aircraft. I have crafted several arguments, including the Blackbox/Passport argument, which proves that the Bush Administration was involved. This argument lies on two premises, both asserted by the Bush Administration: (1) The blackboxes were so damaged as to be irrecoverable. (2) 13 paper passports were recovered at ground zero for the alleged hijackers. Conclusion: the two premises are in logical contradiction, so the Bush Administration was somehow involved in one or more aspects of the propogation/perpetration of the 9/11 demolition.

The existing quantifiable evidence and obvious betrayal of high-school level physics notwithstanding; the mere fact that so many professionals in their respective fields are of the opinion that the three WTC towers could not possibly have collapsed in the fashion portrayed by NIST, should easily be motivation enough to prompt any government to demand a more thorough and satisfactory investigation from its own, trusted professionals. To think that the public at large and elected government can ignore the very people they trust with the construction of their homes, supermarkets, offices, schools, hospitals, bars, gymnasiums etc, and label them conspiracy theorist is nothing short of baffling and deeply disturbing.

My experience is psychological and oriented towards truth. Friends architects and engineers made me aware of the ample evidence of demotion. From different areas I have heard that there is a different story than the official one. Therefore I would like to have this case investigated.
There is ample evidence of explosive demolition as the cause for the collapse of the three World Trade Center high-rises on 9/11. It would add to the trustworthiness of the US to have this properly and independently investigated.

I wondered who would benefit, financially, AS those two buildings, our front teeth, came down. Learning a third building collapsed next door, hidden from the world's attention, sealed my doubt as to perpetrators being ''19 fanatics acting for the guy who lives in a cave (on dialysis.)''Immediately after, I heard someone? collected and disposed of all emergency phone calls and the control-tower recordings of that morning.

I saw the 9/11 building collapses on live television and on re-plays. The collapses looked like controlled demolitions as did the Building 7 collapse later in the day. There are too many unanswered questions that were not adequately addressed by the 9/11 commission in its investigation. A new impartial investigation needs to be carried out.

Based on my academic knowledge of science, I am convinced there is reasonable doubt about the reasons for the collapse of the Twin Towers. The evidence exhibited by the architects revealing how other steel frame buildings have fallen over provide compelling reasons for re-opening this investigation. It is within the principles of our democratic system of government for the American public to learn the truth.

I have deep concerns about the manner in which the buildings collapsed i.e. directly into their footprint and not over to one side; and at nearly free fall speeds into the area of strongest resistance. I am also concerned with the possibility of the use of nano thermite explosives. If the buildings were demolished subsequent to the airplanes hitting them, it is this that killed the largest number of people on that day. Therefore I believe this to be a question of great importance.

I am not an architect or engineer, but my education and experience have taught me to be a critical thinker. And when shown the extent and type of evidence that was shown here, I can make a very educated guess of what happened.
Even though I am not an architect or engineer, I knew enough about steel and fire to be skeptical that morning when I heard that the first tower had collapsed. Then when I heard the second one had collapsed, I couldn't believe it. And when I actually saw the images on TV, of how straight down they fell, I couldn't help but think implosion. But as much as part of me couldn't help but see an implosion over and over, the other part of me wanted to believe what they were telling us on the news: It was the burning jet fuel that brought them down.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Psychologist for 26 years. My Professional Office is located in Columbia South Carolina. The events of 09/11/01 changed my life and changed the lives of every one of my clients. The story of three structural steel/concrete buildings ... owned by the same individual ... (primarily) collapsing because of heat ... all on the same day ... deserves a more thorough, honest and intelligent explanation ... well beyond what THE 9/11 COMMISSION REPORT AUTHORIZED EDITION (NO publication date cited on ISBN page) did not explain.
The total and sudden collapse of Building 7 on 09/11/01 has never been explained by either reasonable or plausible explanation for this surreal event. I believe that the 39th or top floor of this EXTRA SECURE STEEL AND CONCRETE FORTRESS housed the OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AND INTERAGENCY PREPAREDNESS (OEM) or what was the DISASTER Command Center for the Greater NY Metropolitan Area. Wasn't this building designed to remain intact and functionally operational (with its own independent life support system) during and/or following the most extreme conditions ... a building so secure that it was used (in part) as a VAULT for the safe storage of VERY IMPORTANT documents, perhaps even classified documents for government agencies that are abbreviated by three letters including: SEC; FBI; CIA? ... and then early in the evening of 09/11/01 this entire FORTRESS rewrites the laws of physics with a beautifully mellifluous implosion (or explosion) upon itself. They're pulling the building!

In looking for people responsible for any event, one must ask who profits from the success of the event. In the case of WTC Building 7, the destruction (real or perceived) of much information contained within that particular building would probably profit the owners of that information, i.e., American financial and security interests.

KPFA Public Radio and audiobooks in history, economics and science have led me down paths that I frankly wouldn't have chosen for an enlightenment experience in midlife. Ironically, 911 has provided the motivation necessary to question the often mythical basis of my own national patriotism and develop a more factually oriented means of serving others. AE911truth has provided an excellent example. The wtc demolitions reminds me that the value of science can go far beyond it's practical applications. learning and teaching others to think scientifically, considering what is verifiable, specific, measurable, and subject to inspection, and finally peer review, are all skills that can serve the interests of everyone. Deconstructing the official myth of 911 is one subject area in which this intellectual muscle is exercised.

It is obvious when one sees the explosions, the liquid steel pouring out of the building, the cheering of the Israeli Mossad because they had done a good job along with the CIA. Not because they were happy of the deaths (they could not care less). They were happy because of their skill in wrapping the Thermate and their results. The buildings were reduced to their radio active molecular state (the pyroclastic cloud) most of the buildings went up in radio active smoke.

The American people may not all be physicists, engineers or architects and may have not recognized that fact that the buildings falling at near free fall speeds seemed hard to believe at the time, but thankfully we have freedoms and rights that enable us to question, research, and inform ourselves. Most people may have not realized that something was amiss about the official explanation regarding the collapse of 3 buildings on 9/11. However, as citizens of the United States, we have the right to demand a new investigation into the events of 9/11, as new information or perspectives come to light. As the representatives of the American people, you have a duty to abide by this demand.

Buildings don't just collapse because of fire or nearby impacts. Those buildings are meant to take a hit from a plane... they are sky scrapers, and I assume architects take prospective hazards into consideration when constructing a plan for a building which holds thousands of people. I do not have any comment, or information to add to this cause. I am just someone who has a little common sense.

Currently, I'm also studying towards a BA degree.
When I watched the original television footage of the twin towers collapse in the days following 9/11/01, I remember thinking to myself , (since no bombs were mentioned by the media), How did the emergency authorities get in there and demolish those buildings so quickly, and why did they do that when only the top floors were damaged by the planes/fires? I had no doubt I was witnessing a controlled demolition. Some months prior to 9/11/01, I watched a television show about controlled demolitions with old casinos and other multi-storied buildings, and found the graphic, 'neat' implosions unforgettable. Therefore, when watching the twin towers collapsing, I automatically assumed the authorities demolished those buildings due to the symmetrical and immediate way they came down. I just couldn't understand how they accomplished it so quickly, when I knew (based on watching the TV show) it took much longer than a few hours to prepare for this type of demolition. The WTC collapses were too symmetrical and immediate for them to caused by anything but a planned explosive demolition. I lived many years in San Francisco, and worked in the downtown area when both the TransAmerica Pyramid and the Bank of America World Headquarters were built. At that time, there was much discussion of safety issues concerning these huge buildings' proximity to the SFO and Oakland airport flight paths, as well as discussion of fire and earthquake safety measures taken with the design of the buildings in general. I did know, based on all the public discussion from that time,that without doubt these buildings are designed to withstand, and do withstand, even large fires on many floors at the same time. As a former San Franciscan, I've also had the opportunity to witness earthquake damage to large urban buildings, and the human casualties that result. If a building falls down there shouldn't be an immense crater where it formerly stood (if it wasn't built on bay landfill or on an open fault line), and usually there's lots of recognizable salvage materials left. Victims trapped inside may be buried, crushed, and dismembered, but I can't recall ever hearing of a completely 'pulverized' victim in any such incident anywhere on the planet. In light of these personal experiences, it was quite incredible to me when the official 9/11 reports came out and didn't even mention the implosions/explosions, particularly with WTC#7, and that the complete destruction of all the buildings was attributed to fires, causing the buildings to more or less just fall down on their own. The scientific evidence and statements from experts the world over (some on your website) have since validated my initial 'non-expert' impression-opinion of the cause of the collapsing WTC buildings. I think the official reports have produced far more questions than answers. A new independent investigation is imperative so an accurate and transparent accounting can be made of the facts of 9/11/01.

With open eyes I have viewed the videos on 9/11, of the collapse of the the WTC towers, and from the first viewing noticed that there were unexplainable explosions as the buildings raced to the ground.

I had no technical education. But I am very aware of social phenomens around the 9/11. I know about comunication and how information suggests ideas. About hatred against other people/cultures/views leading to a stonger solidarity amongst the group. I have no technical education, but common sense, that tells me, that these pictures - and the people who tell me that we are supposed to see a building collapsing because of an airplane crashing into it - are lying
I have watched many videos of the buildings collapsing and i can't believe that the aircrafts were the cause. These buildings have been torn down controlled. also the circumstances - the U.S. army not able to avoid a strike like this - seem too suspicious.

OBVIOUSLY a controlled demolition. That was apparent to me from day one. It is essential that a new investigation be opened immediately and that the real truth behind this crime become known.

It's been nearly 10 years, and this movement gains more and more supporters as time goes on. No one is leaving this camp once they're in it because once you accept the truth, there is no turning back. I looked for any excuse I could to deny the reality, but eventually, I ran out and I was left to accept the ugly truth. I believe that is the point of this movement; to be ceaselessly persistent in declaring the facts as they are, countering ignorance and silence and unfounded retorts with clear, compelling evidence that can lead one in only one direction: the absolute truth. 9/11 was staged. The buildings were brought down not by planes, but by explosives. Building 7 was demolished in plain sight. Once you look at the plain reality without an emotional bias clouding your judgment, it's all quite clear. Let's get every single person thinking about this, and let the phony political apparatus crumble under the pressure of an informed, righteously indignant public.

I have no technical experience or education but I think the official story, and not only about the collapse of the buildings, is totally unconvincing.
I think the official story about the collapse of the building is illogical and I find the explanation of the AE 9/11 Truth group convincing.
