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.

Environmental attorney and advocate with prior service in State Government working for the Office of General Counsel of the NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation in the Cuomo Administration when the 1993 WTC bombing occurred. Activist who been introduced and attended events for many US Senators including members of the Intelligence, Judiciary, Armed Services, Public Works and other Committees.
I recall thinking it odd as I watched the manner in which the Towers collapsed, particularly the manner in which the second Tower collapsed exactly as the first, but did not think much of this for many years as my thoughts were more preoccupied by the safety and security issues presented. Years later when viewing information on the collapse of the Towers, the free fall and symmetrical nature of the collapses clearly stood out in my mind and refreshed memories of watching this on TV the morning of 9/11, but now could view this event with a different perspective and with critical thinking. I may have seen a small blurb in NYC newspapers shortly after 9/11 about WTC7 but did not pay attention to this as coverage seemed minimal. Years later when I was asked about this event I became astounded at the information I was finding particularly WTC 7 and the free fall collapse. I began college at Virginia Tech in chemistry and engineering related coursework and while I transferred from Tech and did not graduate with a scientific degree, I have worked with many experts over the years and have a solid foundation in the basics of physics and related sciences. I became troubled upon viewing a piece of steel at the NYS Museum in Albany, NY at the Empire State Plaza years later and seeing this steel tagged as having been moved to the Fresh Kills Landfill within a day of 9/11 when I thought the WTC was still a Search and Rescue operation. I hope for a new and complete investigation of these events so the Truth may be determined, known and understood by all.

I have designed many large structural projects over a 40 year span including such projects as a one million square foot industrial plant, largest oil and gas drilling rig capable of drilling to 25,000 feet below surface, and the largest freestanding steel cross standing 19 stories and weighing 2.5 million pounds (to name a few).
Engineering is the only exact science in the world -- we know how to erect structures and how to demolish them also. We do not practice engineering as the law and medical professions do. Without a DOUBT, these structures failed from a deliberate controlled demolition effort. There is not a tall slender structure anywhere that would fail in a symmetrical footprint mode like the 3 towers did unless it was designed to do so. Jet fuel combustion temperature would not even get close to the temps required to bring down the core columns of those structures (ASTM E-119 steel).

Seems to me that since explosives had been planted in WTC towers before 9/11 and the fact that the WTC 9/11 plane crashes weren't random (the towers were the target). It seems quite logical that some additional explosives were planted within the towers via insider or security breach to increase destructive impact of attack on towers.

I'm not a structural engineer, but I know enough to know that we're not getting the whole story here. The way that the buildings collapsed certainly looked like a controlled demolition. How is it that the buildings fell at free-fall acceleration and straight down, doing virtually no damage to any surrounding buildings (especially building 7, which wasn't even hit by anything)?

This is not the first time I have been presented evidence suggesting an alternative explanation of 9/11, but it is the first time I have had the opportunity to do something about it. There are too many valid scientific questions surrounding this catastrophe that lack proper answers; an independent investigation is long overdue. I am inspired by the academic and professional manner by which this campaign has been conducted and promoted, and sincerely hope for its success.

Occupation: Engineer
I am a retired Major General, Army National Guard, and I have 38 years of work as a mechanical engineer with the department of Navy in the design of weapons, components, and transportation means. Lifting and handling was the basis for my experience in strength of materials and the analysis of failure therein. I'm degreed as a mechanical engineer, Louisiana Tech, 1962.
I have read numerous reports containing both calculations and science as well as opinions, watched numerous videos of interviews with experts, watched the collapse of all buildings more times than I can accurately state and there are many factors which simply do not fit the scenario. What I have read of the residual chemical evidence pointing to materials for which there is no logical explanation, other than that an explosives expert with unique access to materials was involved. Most importantly, perhaps, is the indisputable fact that all three buildings fell as in a controlled demolitions scenario. The fuel from the planes did not have enough energy to transfer to the massive central support beams and cause structural failure. Therefore, something else had to be in play to cause what we saw. Then in Building 7, it had no damage from a plane strike. What would have caused it to fall shortly after the owner's decision to 'pull it'? My view is that this is a false flag operation and the USA is up to it's eyeballs in it. I have not continuously followed this crime because it was clear from the beginning that it was being swept under the rug, but there were some very resourceful engineers who studied the rate of acceleration of the fall of the two towers and determined that there was insignificant deviation from free fall. Meaning that the towers did not take a detour and crash their way down one floor at a time, overcoming the strength of each floor, which equates to time, thus loosing that straight-line acceleration we would expect unless a number of floors were assisted by controlled demolition. And what about all that molten steel that was running like a small stream in the basement with traces of thermite in it?

It is absurd to think that all three towers were torn down by fire. It is clear that a lot still needs to be brought to light, and all this is even worse if one thinks to all the innocent victims that occured on 9/11. People should be aware of what happened on 9/11. The reasons why all this happened must be explained to the public, and this investigation is the greatest step towards such truth being brought to light.

I am convinced that the official interpretation of the events of 9/11 cannot be true due to physical reasons. The free fall of WTC 7 alone (but the other towers, too) is a contradiction to universal laws of physics, especially Newton's 3rd law of motion (action = reaction) and the law of conservation of momentum.

I am waiting to learn that the US government, in order to bolster its constricted pancake theory of collapse, has done studies of other demolished buildings around the world. It seems that if a building can be forced to collapse on it own footprint merely by burning jet fuel in a top story, that must be much cheaper than hiring an expert company to mine the floors in succession. Why would this theory not demand it be proven in practice, by practicing on buildings that are destined to be collapsed anyway? Yet I have never heard of the US government performing any such experiment. This seems like strong evidence that the US government knows that its pancake theory is absurd and impossible.

I watched on TV in UK. I saw BBC female reporter twice say building seven had come down. The report was the same but hours apart, in the 2nd one building 7 came down behind her at the end of the report. At this point my previous suspicions were confirmed and I was out in the street screaming ''bast@rds!!!''

I was a General Contractor for over 20 Years. There is no way these buildings fell the way the report says they did. The facts don't add up. We need an investigation into the whole matter. There is just no way a rookie pilot could have flown an airliner into the Pentagon the way the government says it happened. Rookie pilots flying into the Twin Towers is pretty sketchy at best. First, How did they fly from Boston and find the towers? How did we not protect this airspace.

At the U.N. I was trained as a Peer Counselor, by the U.N. Staff Counselor's Office. Part of my training included Critical Incident Stress Debriefing. I worked 35 years as a Maintenance Mechanic specializing on 'Hardware' for all aspects of doors. I installed & maintained door checks, floor checks, panic devices, latch sets, maintained revolving doors. I worked very closely with our U.N. Fire Unit to insure all emc fire exit doors were operating properly. My education was high school, some college, then I went to work at the U.N. Although my primary job description was structural worker, whenever additional training in peer counseling was made available by the U.N. I took advantage of this additional training.
I was at work that day, I was considered 'essential services'. I helped evacuate the staff from the U.N. complex then I was required to stay overnight at the U. N. From that day, I knew something was wrong, a beautiful clear blue sky day, then this happened. When the wind came up from the South, the smell from the 'pit' was like when a tractor trailed brakes slipped/ locked or jumped, an asbestos burning stench. Then a couple of days after the 'official sources' told everyone the air quality was fine and it was safe to go back to work.

I was watching it live on TV telling my son not to fret because our guys would come to help, we watched the whole time he was a boy of 11 scared and believing our military surely would come after hours no one came to save the day. That is when I told my children something is up. I waited for the official statement the man said what he said and left without answering questions. I am furious. My father was a retired welder from NASA and he was screaming at the TV that the whole show was bullshit, I asked why? He said I know it was blasted, he said iron cannot burn without oxygen, I did not understand, he said for it to act like that oxygen had to be on the spot where it presumably melted he screamed at the whole story till he passed away.

From my past experiences in laboratory research, structural steel analysis of tensile strength specimens in the Material Science and Civil Engineering Departments during my university tenure, and witnessing the faux collapse of building 7, I totally believe that Building7 was the victim of a controlled demolition team orchestrated by Deep State Insiders (Actors), the Mossad, and elements of our own government, to create a facade of a fake demise of Building # 7, as well as both Twin Tower #1 and Twin Tower # 2 and/or any other associated buildings in their immediate conglomeration for several reasons: the most obvious being the prohibitively expensive removal of asbestos in the aforementioned buildings, and the ruse of the narrative to start a campaign of war with Iraq under complete false pretenses.

The report put forward by the 9/11 commission contradicts the evidence that I have seen. I have seen witness testimony from police and fire fighters of 'explosions' inside the trade center which blew out windows on the first floor. Jet fuel burns at 800 degrees and steel melts at 1500 degrees. How did a fire burning at 800 degrees melt solid steel with a much higher melting point? I have heard actual recordings of military personnel indicating there were ' exercises' going on which confused the situation and the government has not answered my questions adequately. It appeared to be a cover up. The steel from the buildings was immediately loaded onto boats bound for China. When a plane crashes the scene normally last much longer. A proper investigation was NOT conducted and the American people deserve answers from an independent, non-government audit conducted by a company with no government contracts.
