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.

Manhattan, KS
35+ years in engineering/construction industry - design/detailing, project engineering/mgmt, liaison-owner rep/field coordination. 1990-summa cum laude grad of KSU College of Engineering's Construction Science & Mgmt program. Studied not only physics, strength of materials and fundamental engineering sciences, but also structural design of concrete, timber and steel. Last 15 years have been self-employed as GC-remodeling-handyman. Love compassionate, humane people and a litany of animals, which very well may be my salvation - and certainly a blessing. I aspire to live by what I know as 'Jesus-sanity' in my heart & soul.
The fundamental laws of materials and physics are categorically, overwhelmingly subverted by the 'official story' - as any truly academic-minded person surely knows if they have allowed their mind to consider/examine/test 'data' methodically. Richard Gage and others have done respectful jobs presenting so many obvious contradictions - and I applaud them. My genuine, enthused knowledge of all things 1687-Newtonian, coupled with awareness and wisdom I've acquired through the good graces of wise sages/mentors - as well as through completion of many proving-ground practicums in the 'school of hard knocks' - has forever relegated me to the contingent of those who not only question...but emphatically refuse to accept the official story. Besides the elementary, fatal flaw of that 'story' instantly and irrefutably outed by the freefall-speed collapse of all three skyscrapers - I'm troubled by apparent lack of attention to and scientific respect for some other digitally archived evidentiary issues. After the JP8 fuel was consumed and the fires were oxygen/fuel starved (clearly so by virtue of the billowing, black plumes of smoke emitting from both Tower 1 and 2), at the moments just before collapses began - there were clearly significant, circumferential rings of explosions manifested in huge yellow/orange/red fireballs that erupted through the clouds of pulverized concrete that appeared so suddenly. What were the sources of THOSE explosions sans JP8? Then, after one studies the looped-video collapse of the Tower embedded on Richard's AE911Truth site...I would ask that attention be drawn to the lower left-hand corner near the end of the collapse sequence. One can observe several - but one significant - explosive plumes that emit upward and outward from the center of the Tower. These plumes reach skyward, arch and peak, and then fall back toward the earth by virtue of gravity. If every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and when one reflects on projectile-motion properties - I would ask what (obvious) forces existed that created those plumes. I believe aerial pics of this collapse clearly show multiple plumes emanating from the center of the Tower, virtually encircling the core like Medusa dreadlocks. Frankly, there are so many fundamental aspects related to laws of science that prove beyond any reasonable doubt that their was controlled demolition - I'm flabbergasted as to how so many in the engineering/architecture/scientific community can possibly remain on the sidelines when the 'rationale' for far too many hideous, global realities was-is-remains all-things 911.

On September 11, 2001, I was working in Denver, Colorado. When I arrived at the office on the 4th floor, there was much agitation about a plane that had hit one of the twin Towers. Several in our work group went to an office on the 1st floor that had a TV and stood and watched as the 2nd plane flew into the other tower. As we stood and watched it hit, I was saying Don't fall, don't fall. I was struck with disbelief when it collapsed. Recently I have seen videos of the collapse of Building 7. It seems quite obvious that explosives were used. And, if this is true, it is most likely true that explosives brought down the twin towers.

I was EXTREMELY skeptical to say the least when first told of this possibility of 9/11 being staged. Putting by disbelief aside for a while proved to be the most eye-opening experience of my life! Further investigation into the WHO & WHY has been akin to a born-again experience in finding the REAL truth of who runs this country and the world. I've always wondered why things are the way they are and now it makes total sense. If you truly LOVE & CHERISH this country as I do and want it to remain FREE for your children's children,,, then pass the word to anyone who will listen about this site and what really occurred on 9/11. If we gain enough support,,, this can be the TRIGGER that awakens the rest of the world to the real reason behind this travesty! Wake-up and be the Patriot you were meant to be! You don't have to go fighting in the streets to be a patriot. Simply spread the information and let the process of information exchange and learning take care of the rest. May God truly bless us all!

I never believed the official story since day one. Three of us watched it on TV and all agreed what we saw is not possible. I understand what it takes to melt steel. I understand that lots of smoke means a cool limited active fire. I simply do not believe a small band of foreigners could so completely fool the entire US security system. I do not pretend to know who was behind this; but it is clear all three buildings were controlled demolitions. I suspect Building #7 was used to bring down the Towers; then demolished to hide evidence. The Pentagon story is just as un-believable/Improbable. An investigation must be started ASAP to find out what actually happened. Rocky M. Van Asten, P.E.

As a Canadian I must admit that I fear the U.S. (and its allies) and their agendas more than I fear terrorists. I don't believe governments or special power groups are smart enough to pull off a 9/11 event without disclosure and leaks - but something terrible is a amiss. If you look at the major decisions coming out of your Obama administration, many of them defy logic and seem incredibly suicidal almost. There is a sinister agenda being executed and we must expose it.

In view of the pervasive reluctance of officials to release critical evidence, the numerous scientific and engineering anomalies and research results regarding the event, an unbiased investigation is imperative. Anomalies include: uncharacteristic free-fall collapse of buildings, hit or not hit by planes, complete destruction of buildings specifically designed to take impact of large airliners, never-before seen collapse of steel-frame buildings due to fire, persistent molten iron well beyond the temperature of burning fuel, projection of massive debris far from the towers, upward ejection of debris, complete pulverization of concrete and, it appears, even steel, evidence of thermate in dust plus the quick removal of twisted, severed steel columns from crime site. These are professional technical assessment issues specific to WTC 1,2&7. There are a multitude of other anomalies, and a chain of suspicious behaviors and subsequent hasty legal and foreign policy activities with suspicious basis, all which strip validity from all the ad-hominem attack arguments and scientifically untenable studies which have sought to discredit anyone honestly skeptical. Truth and reconciliation came to south Africa. In the land of the free and home of the brave, justice can and must be carried out. If the government story holds water, those who advocate it would only be vindicated and so no objection is reasonable.

None of the 9/11 attack incidents has been adequately investigated. The investigating commission that sat was not properly selected and truth did not appear to be the objective; rather, the objective seems to have been to silence objection and concern.

9/11 is amazing, when I heard through CNN that America under attack, instantly my gut feeling said that it is an inside as my knowledge of buildings said that the airplanes had nothing to do with the pattern of collapse. It was a planned demolition. My subsequent knowledge testified and further corroborated other scientific evidence and as presented by Gage. I have no doubt that is an inside operation.

The preponderance of evidence indicates that all three WTC buildings fell because of explosives planted inside, not the airplane crashes alone. Also, damage to the Pentagon is more consistent with a cruise missile than an airliner--debris of which was not found on site.

I am in the process of acquiring credible data on the matter. I am horified to discover molten steel at ground zero. Aviation fuel does not melt steel, Thermite on the other hand does.I watched the towers fall on television and it did not escape my attention that the event was the perfect PULL. that is if a demolition crew was paid to do the job they could not have done it any better.

I am convinced by the facts and physics that the Twin Towers and WTC-7 were taken down on purpose by some kind of controlled demolition. At first, my reaction to any such conspiracy theory was to respect and trust the Government, and I immediately labeled conspiracy theorists as Un-American. Sorry, that was wrong - I am with you now.

It was surprising to see events unfold as they did on that dreadful day, given that the buildings were designed specifically to withstand such an event. I think that still there are many unanswered questions and an unbiased, independent and scientific investigation is the only answer.

The thermite evidence is difficult to explain away, and in my opinion the buildings simply fell too quickly, and the analysis afterward failed to explain the reasons why the central cores of 1 and 2 collapsed. WTC 7's collapse is completely unexplainable in my view and requires more investigation.

Graduated from UCLA with a general engineering degree (Dean Boelter's philosophy was that engineers be full spectrum educated in all disciplines of engineering...electrical, chemical, structural, etc) My courses have included strength of materials including lab measurements and experiments. I have over the years been involved in building many structures and thus have an educated common sense knowledge.
On 9/11/01 my first view of the event was via internet but because I was preoccupied... I just didn't pay attention. Some time in 2008 I discovered Youtube and began watching the various videos...especially the many slow-motion views. At some point my educated and experienced brain started to focus on what I was observing and hearing. Many things became problematic...fire department reports of estimate to extinguish two hours...reports of a series of explosions etc. My common sense told me that asymmetrical heating of the columns should have caused the upper portion of the impact to fall to one side...alongside the standing portion. Factor in the classical controlled demolition similarity, the fine grade cement break-up, no standing columns, free-fall speed through a path of maximum resistance, the laws of physics defied, conservation of momentum etc. the first steel frame buildings collapse in history in one day...not one but three...it's just too much...something is rotten.

I have wondered since 9/11 where all the building material went and why the pile was not higher. I never saw Building 7 fall until watching Loose Change years later.

Was a problem solver and project engineer from the beginning as a technician before finishing my degree, and through out my career.
As I watched the TV of the planes hitting and the collapse of the towers and Bldg 7, I said to my wife, They were imploded. To me it was obvious that was the case, because they came down in their own footprint. Later when they cleared the site before forensic evidence could be collected and examined, as was done in Oklahoma City, I became certain that it was setup. My theory is that after the first attempt on the towers, the powers-to-be managed the installation of the charges, how I didn't know, but then they waited for the Muslims to strike again; using it as an excuse for the war and Patriot Act.

All 3 Trade buildings fell in approximately the same way (e.g., the time to fall, and the footprint in which they it fell into), despite varying degrees of damage. Of the two buildings that sustained similar damage (i.e. the twin towers), the last building hit fell first, after 54 minutes. The other building fell after 100 minutes, despite that these building were subjected to similar forces. These anomalies warrant further investigation.

I have had twenty-eight years experience in the field of engineering design, construction and management.
I have seen buildings demolished in a controlled manner. The twin towers and building seven all collapsed in an identical fashion to a controlled fall. I do not believe structural damage from impact or subsequent fire could have brought those buildings down. Someone had to have access to the buildings beforehand to plant some type of explosive devise. The military grade explosive found in the dust around Manhattan needs to be accounted for. We owe it to the thousands of people who died to find out who perpetrated and assisted in this event.

Nothing in the towers or in the aircraft should have burned hot enough to produce large quantities of molten steel. Nano-thermite (super thermite) should not be present in the dust samples period and the percentage present in the dust samples indicates a very large original amount. Small iron/steel spheroids should not be present in the dust samples and is only produced by high velocity ejection.

Beyond a doubt, the WTC buildings were a highly professional controlled demolition job. It must have taken about 6-8 weeks of preparation. The evidence collected and the design simulation calculations show that US government and NIST offered explanations that do not hold water. What is astonishing and totally humiliating is the fact that the government thought the world was full of morons, and that they could pull this off by saying utter nonsense like jet fuel caused the collapses.

The by government published information is not credible. The supposition that steel structured buildings can collapse in a downward linear line into themselves is impossible without the use of explosives.

I served as an research instrument technician for 5 years; as a research logician for 4 years; and as a computer software developer for 35 years. I am thoroughly qualified to collect and distill facts and to think.
It is highly unlikely that the Twin Towers could collapse as a result of the damage from the planes and subsequent fires. At the very least, the central core would remain standing. Building 7 was obviously brought down as it was not impacted by the planes, there we no serious fires, and the landlord is heard to say pull it in a TV interview. You don't pull a 47 story building having it free fall into its footprint with a spur of the moment command.

I have worked in the electrical engineering field for 28 years and have a Masters degree.
The day I saw the video of the collapses on TV, I said three buildings do not fall into nice little piles like that naturally.

The NIST report of a progressive gravity collapse of the towers and WTC #7 initiated by the fires, is unsupported by the video evidence of gravity free fall of the structural members without resistance. Such a conclusion would clearly contradict Newton's Laws of motion and the principles of conservation of energy. Evidence of unreacted nanothermite and the by-products of a thermitic reaction found in the dust is very damning and cannot be ignored. This and other evidence presented here strongly supports the theory of a controlled demolition of the towers and a new proper investigation needs to be undertaken.
