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.

Evidence of false flag controlled demolition is beyond compelling and supportive of a secret attack on this nation. Film of the collapse clearly shows demolition squibs and thermite and thermate materials, which is clear evidence of programmed demolition. Investigate Knights of Malta, CIA, Mossad, Bilderberger, Trilateral Commission, WTC Building security, and all firms having access to the building's systems, especially elevator systems along with applicable government agencies who would have jurisdiction over the eye-witnessed recovery of the Black boxes.

I have been a practicing architect/urban designer and management consultant with over 40 years experience and the founder and president of Barasch Architects & Associates, Inc., a multidisciplined architecture/engineering corporation. I have had broad experience in the planning, design & engineering of multi-story, braced-frame and moment-resisting steel frame structures including office towers and large scale institutional complexes.
After reviewing the data presented by the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth Organization and through my independent assessment of the data I have reviewed, and based on my 40+ years of professional experience, I have concluded that it would be nearly impossible for any of the principal World Trade Center Towers to collapse in the manner or in the recorded time frame as a result of any fire or explosion caused solely by the impact of terrorist-guided aircraft alone. Braced steel frame buildings simply don't collapse in a symmetrical manner with a uniform plume of debris in 102 or 56 minutes respectively with modern structural design standards and state-of-the-art life-safety systems which must be continuously inspected by local building inspectors based on ever increasing performance standards centered on human survival.

I have intense interest in Physics & would always seek to know the truth by scientific evidence. I sign this petition in the spirit for the quest for the truth.
I have learned tremendously through all the videos on ae911truth.org about the potential causes that might have brought down the mighty, majestic buildings adorning the Manhattan skyline. And the hollowness of the official investigation report. It was personally a very tragic moment for me to witness on TV the colossal damage and despair unseen in modern history. It fills me with awe to imagine a bunch of semi trained people remotely controlled by a man in remote languishing third world country desert or cave could trigger such a catastrophe despite the sophisticated vigilance of world's greatest nation. I seek to know the truth.

Since the Oklahoma bombing I lost faith in getting the truth from nat'l. media and our gov. I felt strongly when the WTC fell that it was impossible (and argued with colleagues for years), with my knowledge/ understanding of alloy and structural steels. Then heard later another building fell but no one talked about it... Why? Then the Pentagon and PA... TV reports explained the alloy steel and titanium in landing gear and jet engines vaporized because they hit so hard... Bull, these metals do not vaporize no matter they were traveling at 500mph or 1000mph... So, where are they? No one answers... Letters to congressman and the local TV investigators gets you no response or something unrelated..... why? I'm glad someone has put this site together, finally, people who see the same things I've seen and been scorned for all these years.

It is really Doesn't make any sense for me as a structural engineer working in the field of progressive collapse and blast analysis that the towers specially WTC 7 collapse in that way. I've been working in demolition industry for years now and i can see that this is a controlled demolition case.

I'm a truth seeking American citizen who is always asking questions, and I believe the people of this country deserve to know the truth about what really happened on 9/11/01.
Jet fuel cannot melt steel beams! It is impossible. Also, WTC 7 didn't just collapse on its own, it was obviously a controlled demolition and in my opinion, that provides enough reasoning to launch an alternative investigation to uncover what really happened on 9/11/01.

I know that our govt was responsible for 9/11. I knew it then and I know it now. The companies that stood to benefit from this event are mostly owned by past members of the us government and also the patriot act emerged afterwards. Our government has been corrupt for so long that nothing surprises me anymore. My gut says Bush family ties, dick Cheney associations with Halliburton and patriot act spoils equals guilty

I have learned from this organization since its inception because after watching the buildings collapse like they did, I could tell it was a controlled demolition and there have been many in Vegas where I have lived for decades. I also listened to the first-hand witnesses who were actually present and believed what they were saying about the EXPLOSIONS they HEARD and the aftermath of them they WITNESSED FIRST-HAND. I NEVER believed what the "official" narrative said. I have followed the investigative journalists, this organization, researchers into government destruction and corruption for DECADES and want justice for all those MILLIONS of INNOCENT LIVES DESTROYED BY THIS NATION FROM THE THOUSANDS MURDERED ON 9/11 TO THE MILLIONS DESTROYED BY ENDLESS WARS BECAUSE OF THE LIES OF 9/11. THIS NATION HAS NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF. IT'S LONG OVERDUE TO STOP THE EVIL. LONG OVERDUE. There is ENOUGH PROOF this was a STAGED FALSE FLAG EVENT SO A FEW CERTAIN PEOPLE COULD BECOME MUCH WEALTHIER BY MURDERING MILLIONS OF OTHER PEOPLE AND DESTROYING LIVES. AND THAT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE! I am also Lebanese. My mother is from Lebanon and I know about the seven countries the USA wanted to take out. Lebanon was one of them. I want an investigation NOT conducted by our government nor anyone tied to our government because the public DEMANDS it for justice to the millions of lives destroyed from the aftermath of 9/11.

Many Americans would be shocked if they knew the actual history of our country and what's really happening now, and hopefully take urgent action. Their conception is a myth. The 9/11 attacks were the planned excuse for our war in Iraq followed by our constant wars for 19 years. This was a foundation for our current militaristic state. If the real history of 9/11 were to come out, urgent actions might be inspired to save our constitutional democracy.

The official explanation does not agree with evidence gathered and presented by ae911.org. The 9/11 commission had their hands tied in many ways. More scientific evidence has been analyzed by many more experts with the benefit of time and hindsight. There needs to be a new commission set up to add the credible scientific information to amend the previous 9/11 commission report. Out of respect for so many that died, the credible analysis of the evidence presented by so many in the group 'architects and engineers for 9-11 truth' should be taken seriously.

I have a BA with 12 credit hours (4 semesters) in logic and critical thinking. I have also completed 9 credit hours (3 semesters) in the philosophy of science.
While I am not an engineer, it seems clear that the official NIST accounts of the WTC collapses are in violation of very fundamental principles of scientific methodology. They have excluded pertinent evidence that is incongruent with their hypotheses, and pursued a conclusion without properly comparing the merits with alternative hypotheses that better account for the evidence.

After watching WTC 7 collapse I knew that foul play was involved. I then reviewed the evidence for the destruction of all towers (WTC 1, 2, 7) with explosives and found it to be irrefutable. This fact implicates the U.S. government in the attacks. Justice needs to be served for the murders that were committed on September 11th and in the resulting wars that followed.

As a Direct Care Professional, I see to it that the individuals under my charge receive the best possible care, are treated with all due respect and honor any possible requests, hopes, and dreams. Prior to my becoming a CDCP, I spent thirty plus years in the food service business. As noted above, I earned an Associate in Applied Science in Restaurant Management.
As an armchair expert on explosives, I witnessed in horror the obvious controlled demolition of the three buildings at the World Trade Center Complex. When I first became aware of the AE911Truth creation, I knew I must donate and spread the truth. Much more recently, I began reading 'Death of a Nation: 9/11 and the Rise of Fascism in America' by George W. Grundy. I am only one third through this blockbuster. I cannot put it down, nor keep quiet. The rise of the Neoconservatives during the George W. Bush Administration is detailed very well and provides a road-map of the true events of Tuesday September 11, 2001.

I worked in several industries including software development, US Army (public relations) and construction. I earned my bachelor degree from Sonoma State University as a working adult.
Although I didn't have a background in the sciences, I was puzzled as I watched each tower collapse; I'd never seen grey ash and debris from a fire that moments earlier was emitting black smoke. I couldn't understand how everything turned to dust, ostensibly from a fire. I now know that I was watching a pyroclastic explosion of ash and material, which was previously only seen as a result of volcanic activity.

I understand what happened and who was involved. I spent 20 years in the trades and it has hardly no relevance upon what I know about the events. Your videos helped to piece this unexplained act of cowardice terrorism together and I am hoping to shed some light upon the situation as i fear GOD and GOD alone now. My heart aches for those families and all the American people who are desperate for truth related to the matter. This is very serious to me as it is who we are as Americans to seek out justice for all those involved, which indirectly we all are as this event shaped our entire world as to how we would live within it since 9/11.
The American people, especially those who were directly and immediately affected deserve justice for those who lost their lives and have had none given. Looking through a unique perspective of beneficiaries as a direct result of the mayhem, you can tell who was involved collaboratively and why the event and its concealment occurred. I hope to explain this as it is directly related to some of the undefined chaos being exhibited in our world to this day and helps to explain why these events are transpiring as well. This puzzle has been solved already, its just a matter of exposing them now for their murderous, tyrant and cowardice ways.

Journeyman Ironworker Local 416 Los Angeles California, Bakersfield College Architecture, Supervising Building Inspector County of Kern 23 years.
My experience as an Ironworker and Supervising Building Inspector lead me to believe that the structures at Buildings(s) 1 & 2 failure was caused by deliberate structure failure and not by ignition caused by jet fuel (kerosene), immediately after seeing the films of the structural collapse. Building #7 was clearly a product of demolition and not by low temperature fires as indicated by the government report. Those of us who have experience in erection of structural steel structures as well as extensive inspection experience of these types of structures are well aware that the structures that failed could not have been caused as portrayed in the governmental report.
