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.

There are too many unanswered questions about 9/11 in order to believe the official version of events. A more thorough investigation is needed to arrive at a more accurate assessment. There is not enough energy contained in jet fuel to explain the total collapse and destruction of the central core. The molten steel found in the basements of the towers needs to be explained scientifically. The collapse of WTC 7 is also very suspicious.

I received a BSIE from SUNY Buffalo in 1970Worked for GE for 5 years, then Varco-Pruden Metal Building Systems for 3 years and was the Engineering manager at the Office of State Publishing for 33 years, retiring in 2011.... was fortunate to have a wide variety of projects over that time period.Everything from welding and printing equipment specification to oversight of building construction projects including structural roof re-inforcement to support an evaporative cooling system as well as supporting pollution control equipment that incinerated VOC compounds used in lithographic offset printing.
Building 7 videos show a standard building demolition at gravity free fall with a NIST explanation that an office fire was the cause... how absolutely ridiculous. This got me thinking about the Twin Towers and the jet fuel temperatures, which led me to the YouTube clips of the firemen talking about molten metal coming down the channels and the statements that the ground floor lobby area was already blown out before the towers came down. Then I learned about Thermite and realized that the governments explanation of what happened was a complete fabrication and the buildings could not have come down if they were only hit by a commercial passenger aircraft. I also found the Pilots for 911 truth to be informative when they stated that the specific Boeing aircraft cited could not generate enough thrust to fly at 500+ mph at that low of an altitude (80% of the atmosphere is contained in the 1st 2 miles of altitude) because the air is too dense. They can fly at 500+ mph when they are at 6 or 7 miles up in the THIN air, less resistance.

Twintowers: I doubt heavily the official story, as it would have been the first time, that steel frame buildings would have collapsed in such a way! Building 7: An almost obvious controlled demolition, what else?! Pentagon: Maybe the first telemetrically controlled airplane had also a hardwired altitude detection and was later flown to a remote airbase. Therefore, a second airplane - it might have been a large drone - was launched to try to cover the failure (as presented already on several websites).

I received a bachelor of science in aeronautical engineering with a minor in computer graphics and with a 3.55 GPA from Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. In the GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test), I scored in top 6%. I've worked at Northrop Grumman Corporation as a system process engineer. And among other various employments, I was the pipeline engineering supervisor for the Lord of the Rings, working on all three films in New Zealand for Weta Digital to enhance the capability and efficiency of their computer-graphics production.
The official story about how the WTC buildings fell on September 11th is absolutely ridiculous. No fire-induced collapse, because of two jets, could cause a symmetrical fall of these three buildings at the acceleration of gravity--it's just physically impossible. The twin towers were engineered to withstand such aircraft strikes. And the videos of the three buildings falling also show clear signs of explosions that cannot be explained by any fire/jet caused collapse. Furthermore, there are innumerable eye-witness accounts of massive explosions (and demolition-style countdowns) that have no reasonable connection to the official story about why the buildings fell.

John R. Taylor, BSc ME

Boquete, Chiriqui, Panama
worked as a Mechanical Engineer in railway engineering for 20 years. Much of the work involved stress analysis of rolling stock ie. modification of existing rolling stock for specialized applications.
I first questioned the official story when a French Journalist pointed out the hole in the pentagon was too small to have been made by a commercial aircraft. I then viewed the video 911 mysteries. That convinced me. I then questioned the symmetry of the 3 wtc buildings and the fact that they fell through the path of greatest resistance at near free fall speed. Evidence of nano thermate found by Dr. Jones and by analyzed by a PHD from Denmark was further evidence. The fact that the concrete was pulverized takes a great deal of energy more than that of concrete floors crashing into concrete floors. Then huge structural beams are found embedded in nearby buildings and some thrown as far as 600 ft takes a major lateral force. A collapsing building does not generate lateral force. I see the impact of an aircraft against steel structure somewhat as a beercan being crushed against a steel beam. Why weren't engines and wings found on the ground. After all the perimeter beams are substantial and the plane would have had to shear a large number of them in order to enter the building. It is not easy to shear large box beams with an aluminum structure, particularly given that an aircraft is not constructed with the safety factor of a steel framed building. There are many other things that defy logic but much of it is conjecture and would only serve as fodder for debunkers so I choose not to go there.

Shocked by the first images at the time, and like so many, believed in the official story about hijackers and planes. As time went on (the event never let me go), my gut feeling kept me going back and back to the 9/11 story, simply because there was something off about the whole event and the ensuing wars. Something didn't fit. Until I found Richard Gage's findings on the official story. The pieces started falling into place, and I was again deeply shocked. It is only too clear now that buildings do not come down because of office fire, certainly not steel frame high risers. After much searching, listening, figuring out what some people say, what others say not, .... I can fairly state that I see the why's and the who's in the whole story. A new and independent investigation - in fact, a scientific and a criminal investigation are required. I look forward to both.Sincerely, Kris Saenen

All most instantly after 9/11 but before I knew what I was looking @ in regards to the clean up of the cut steal structure of the fallen towers. I had noticed that the slag on the cut beams was rather heavy and not characteristic of an Oxy-Acetylene or Oxy-Mapp Gas cutting torch. This was the first hint that something was not Right

One of the many things i did before retiring was build pole signs. I therefore understand metal construction that must be able to sway from high winds. I also understand the heat required to distort or melt steel.
I have never believed the official story as aviation jet fuel under ideal conditions does not burn near, within 1000 degrees, hot enough to melt steel. The core beams were too thick and asbestos wrapped so could never have gotten hot enough. What was burning five weeks later at 1700 degrees?

Botany College major. I've currently dropped out of college to begin apprenticing a bicycle frame builder. I'm learning to weld and am learning about the behavior of steel and aluminum. This has not really been a contributing factor to my belief that the towers were brought down by demolition, but it makes the behavior of the steel in that scenario even more apparent to me.
There is no doubt in my mind that 9/11 was a false flag operation perpetrated by one of the most diabolically corrupt governments of the modern era.

I have been a certified welder for years, working on several heavy structural constructions. I am an American Welding Society Certified Welding Inspector (actually having received my Cert. ON 09/11/'01), and although not the most experienced, of course, it is evident to me that the truth of what happened on 9/11/'01 has yet to be acknowledged by the U.S. Gov.
As an experienced welder and welding inspector, it is obvious to me that there has been a massive deception on the part of the U.S. Gov. in relation to the events of 9/11/'01 and how those events were brought about. I have read David R. Griffin's books and viewed videos put out by the group AE911Truth, and I believe the sooner our government will accept truthful research into these events, the sooner justice can be served, because eventually, THE TRUTH WILL COME OUT.

I have worked with metal and am sure that kerosene (similar to jet fuel) will not make steel melt or explode. I spent my whole childhood preparing to join the military and become a General. When I was 17 the hippies got a hold of me and I came up with the Peace Army four years later. I am Waging Peace @ War's Pace and think 9/11 truth is the most in-your-face display of the ruling class's morals. 9/11 changed the world; 9/11 truth will change it again.
I spent 2 weeks asking myself, 'Did those buildings REALLY collapse?' When I finally woke up, I realized my disbelief was well-founded, even though I couldn't put it all together. I woke up in '05 and spent many hours looking at videos to be SURE that 9/11 was an inside job. I AM SURE; MY LIFE IS CHANGED. NOW, TO WAKE UP MORE PEOPLE!!!

I feel that this is one of the best places to break down all the evidence and explain it to those watching. I have had many problems trying to spread the word on the strangeness of the events on 9/11/01 due to confusion and general lack of intellectual ability. However, this is a great place for me to refer people to visit in order to better understand the flaws in the official statements by our government concerning 9/11.

I was born on January 15, 1978 in Sioux Falls SD. I share a birthday with the late great Martin Luther King JR and I like to think that some of his cosmic bravado has rubbed off on me but I digress ... I lived in Sturgis SD, home of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally for the first fourteen years of my life where I became(thanks to biker gangs from all over the world) worldly and independent. I spent the last sixteen years of my life back here in Sioux Falls where I started my own pawn shop at age eighteen ... just for the fun of it really ... I thought ... while at the same time keeping my 60 hr a week full time job as a sales manager for a local furniture and carpet store ... I bought a duplex when i was twenty and tried my luck at being a landlord/income property owner as well as a pawn broker/sales manager ... I did quite well ... Owning my own property introduced me to the fine points of building maintenance and then after a couple of years I progressed to the finer points of home building ... until 9/11/2001 at that point I was doing a stint in Wyoming to pay off some personal loans as a welder/mechanic/cowhand on a cattle ranch five miles wide and ten miles long right in the middle of Cheney territory ... Upon my return to Sioux Falls SD after paying off my debt I disbanded my Pawn shop as my lease was up ... I dropped my income property and became a licensed, bonded, and insured contractor where I became an effective leader of men ... until the Iraq war started ... at that point I immediately stopped paying taxes and let my license, my business ... and my life ... laps into eternal poordom(seemingly) so that I wouldn't have to go to prison for tax evasion ... because I would rather die of being poor then contribute ANYTHING to Bush's form of government ... or go to prison for that matter ... So ... Since I'm now too broke to contribute money to ANY causes my intellect is all I have left to give ...
To me personally ... the title 9/11 debunker DOES NOT EXIST ... because debunking WTC demolition is PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE .... Period!!! Several million tons of high grade welded and bolted 4 inch thick steel box framing does NOT disappear because of a low grade office fire a hundred floors up ... Towers one and two were each effectively three different buildings stacked on top of one another ... Fires at the top would have absolutely NO EFFECT on the under infrastructure which would have to be REMOVED in order for the entire building to disintegrate in mid air into it's own basement like it did ... to the staunch 9/11 debunker I say PROVE IT ... PHYSICALLY SHOW ME with something other then your NIST report and attached simulation ... because if you base your entire debunking career on a simple computer simulation alone(with unverified parameters) ... well let's just say that you might as well tell people without a shadow of a doubt in your mind that the Super Mario Brothers and King Koopa are physically real and fighting each other in down town New York to ... for the first time ever in recorded history of course.

I have been a welder for over twelve years in which i have built buildings, bridges which both contain A36, A572and A588 steel. In the last six years i have welded on numerous pipelines, plants and refineries in my area. I know what it takes to weld, cut and distort steel of such size as the beams that the WTC were constructed with. I too have been awakened by the efforts of the dvds this petition is involved with. Lets take America back!!!!!
I don't believe for one minute now that those massive buildings were brought down by an aluminum built 767 no matter if the whole cabin were full of fuel. This is obviously a fabricated story to cover up much more than we thought. Until just last week i just accepted the facts that the government had dealt us. Now I'm filled with anger much worse than the day of the so called attacks!!! We should not rest until the truth has been admitted! The people who lost their lives shall be avenged! This makes me wonder whats in store for us in the future.

I'm a machinist and welder by trade with 10 years in the trade. Im familiar with melting points and temperatures of controlled and uncontrolled fires.
There's no doubt in my mind that 911 was an inside job. No steel constructed building has ever collapsed from fire, even after 10, 14, 17, and 19, hours of burning! These buildings collapsed perfectly. Dr. Steven Jones found traces of thermite from samples taken from the building site. The windows on both sides of the hole in the Pentagon were still intact where the wings should of hit. All the news media had the same questions when reporting live that day, questions about the lack of debris, questions about the sound of bombs, and explosions, but the next day none of those questions were asked or ever brought up again by these mainstream media sources.

My instructor (a great welder teacher and friend) Jack Mills taught me everything I know. I'm not certified yet but will be soon. I learned a lot about metal even gained a welders love for it. So I know when I say it starts to melt at 2500f no less, and its not even liquid at that point just structurally weak. An open flame fire being fueled by jet fuel(high octane) can only peak at about 1200f....???? there's to many blanks.
Not enough people know use these peoples techniques against them create a state of awe in the media make sure people are listening...that is the first step then we can pursue those responsible!

Welder and metal worker. Builder and innovator. Very familiar with the properties of steel due to experience in welding.
The natural upward-force resistance of the buildings, opposing the downward fall from the top, [especially in light that the buildings increased their strength very substantially each floor (from the top down) by the thickening of the central core columns], leaves no other possible conclusion than that an exorbitantly high volume of intelligently directed and provided energy was necessary to accomplish these unnatural, symmetric, plowing through of themselves at nearly freefall speed.

I am a welder/metal fabricator and have a pretty good understanding of how metals work.
Metal-framed structures do not fail due to fire unless that fire is oxy-acetylene fueled. Jet fuel is extremely flammable but nowhere near acetylene. Not to mention most of the fuel looked like it exploded on impact. Also, 10-ton steel beams were thrown several hundred feet from the building, and molten steel (which is on video to see) flowed from the windows... nothing about the official report makes any sense.

There must be a more thorough examination of the events that took place on September 11th, 2001. The fact the the official book published by The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States does not contain a single word regarding the collapse of WTC 7 in particular; as well as, many conflicting eyewitness testimonies and a list of unexplained evidence which is in stark contrast to the official explanation, simply warrants another look. It, the obvious planned attack, has not been satisfactorily explained to the many persons who have suffered due to the lack of a complete investigation. Until this honest investigation occurs, the negative impact of this event shall haunt the many persons who clearly see the open ended questions that linger and wreak havoc on the psychology of civilized society.

I am a student and learned how to weld when I was very young. I am not an expert, and I do not have a license. I do have logic and reason, which is enough to want to ask questions about events that seem strange.
I see the steel beams bent into horseshoe shapes, but the beam was not broken or even cracked. When welding, it takes a lot of heat to bend steel, and even then, I still manage to break the metal and make mistakes. I do not have the technology to bend giant steel beams. I live in the US where many chemicals can be made available to me through online purchases to heat any metals that need to be bent, but where would I find that in a cave in Afghanistan?

Structural steel welder for over 20 years..I have had extensive back round with steel and how it work's under stress and heat.
After watching the video and having doubt's before science has proven that I was justified in having doubt's.

I am a 24 year old God fearing gun loving American. I'm currently going to school for welding.
9-11 was obviously an inside job and the real terrorists need to be brought to justice!

Prior to disability, I was an industrial construction welder/fitter. I worked primarily in the south on power plants, steel mills and paper mills along with some other projects and in one fabrication shop. I was Xray and bridge certified. I worked in this field until 2005 when hurricane Katrina took all my tools and forever changed my life.
I have experience in rigging and demolition. I've long had a fascination with imploded buildings and have been a sponge for knowledge of how buildings are imploded from the first one I saw. I could never reconcile the forensics of the collapsed buildings, the implosion-like free fall of the towers, the delayed collapse of Building 7 and the *cheesecloth* explanations, or lack thereof, forthcoming from the government *investigations*. There remains much to be explained and brought to light. The only things I can see that are clear are that the official explanations are invalid, that there is a strong network of interlinked motives for controlled demolition and that these clearly WERE controlled demolitions.

I have been around steel and welding most of my life. I was an inspector for a large rail car repair company for years and I had a lot of training in the field of inspecting welds and steel structure as well as other related topics. I know Jet fuel cannot melt steel or except in the most perfect condition weaken it.
The fact that building 7 fell at free fall speed as did the other 2 towers tells us that their were other forces in affect beside the short lived jet fuel fires that brought these towers down
