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.

Occupation: Land Surveyor-Idaho
I am a registered Prof. Civil Engineer in Utah (since 1967), Wyoming and Idaho (qualified short time later). Am a Prof. Land Surveyor in Idaho. - - Received my BSCE from Utah State University Logan, Utah in 1954. Was with U.S. Bur. of Public Roads for 3 years located in Oreg., Wash,. Alaska, and Wyo. Interstate Hwy Design engineer on I-15 from Lehi to Provo, Utah. After that, I was appointed Utah DOT's Standards Engineer (I started with zero standards.) Some BPR Standards were adopted, Developed new format, construction details and all new standards for all types of state roads and highway construction, plus traffic control design, signage and standards. Revised the Utah Road Commission payment handbook, which determined the methods for calculating the contactor's payment. - - As a Facilities Engr, for Hercules, I was placed in charge of all roads, buildings, roofs, barricades, parking & utilities lines, including: acid, steam, air, water, sewer and N. gas, plus projects: using, air, hydraulic, explosion-proof equipment & handling equipment. - - Mapped 6 underground coal mines in Utah, They used Explosives. - - I had an day to day association with an Explosives Expert & Chemist for several years. - - In 1949 (USAF) I flew over many bombed German cities and witnessed the damage done by bombs in WWII. The corners of the bombed-out buildings stood up 10 to 30 feet higher than the middle portion of the straight perimeter walls of the damaged structures. (Not true for 911 Bldg. #7. I see that example as more proof that all 3 WTC buildings were Imploded. The corners failed due to the extra explosives. - - - - Lester D. Baker, P.E. - - Ogden, Utah
When a bldg drops/falls at free fall speed, it means to me that the floor above did not help, or cause the collapse of the next floor below (that would have caused a short delay). It means to me that there was no resistance, or delay by the floor below and therefore that floors below had already failed completely before the upper floor could get there. Each and every floor failed TIMELY. Only a well-controlled Implosion could do this 110 times in a row. And it was repeated for 2 more buildings (another 110 stories and then on another 47 story building.) - - I suspect that if any of the floors had failed untimely (too soon or too late), it would have caused a totally different failure scenario. Both would likely have missed the footprint below. The lower floors failed exactly as planned (which was about one-tenth of one second apart). Three huge buildings went down without a hitch. It could not have been better, if it were planned. And yet they say that it was NOT planned. If that is true, The only tougher job I can think of - is for someone to build one of those buildings - WITHOUT A PLAN - Timing may not be so critical. - - - - - - Seperate Comment: - - Why can't we find these EXPERTS, and these were EXPERTS that did this job? I suspect that there are only 5 or 10 people in the world, at most, who know how to even supervise this kind of job, and they all know each other, also, they would have access to the sources (find them too) of the explosives, Thermite, and other Specialties used on this project, etc. (That was a BIG, COMPLEX job.) So, many people in the business would know about it. This INFO should be easy to find (I bet they even advertise). With just a little waterboarding (JUST KIDDING), we would have our answers. Can you imagine that the U.S. Government is still continuing those trials and torturing those poor Arabs. In any of the videos, I never even saw one Arab, let alone any Arab giving orders to PULL IT. The owner had a big payday, that day, He had owned it only a few months. - - - - I have been very impressed with Mr. Richard Gage, Too bad, but the Constitution is either dead or fast asleep. Otherwise, why would they (your officials) have the nerve to prepare and obtain agreements with Canada and Mexico without protecting their butts. There are no borders, so there is no country, or Nation. Nations require borders, or they are nothing, except renegades. Do your police abide by the Constitutional principles and why not? For any Officer to serve a citation of any kind; there has to have been an INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR A CRIME COMMITTED. All other citations are issued under the de facto Officer doctrine under color of Law. (Ryder v. U.S. 515 U.S. 177). Very interesting. - - - - Another Subject: The Supreme Court and Courts of Appeal have ruled many times in the last 100 years that there is no contract between the Government officials/Police and the Citizens (in name only). If Mr. Gage ever talks to me, I will be happy to explain it to him. Sorry, but it is true.

One of the many things that puts the official story in question for me is the matter of foreknowledge. How could so many people know that WTC buildings 1, 2, and 7 were going to come down when a fire has never caused a complete collapse of a building before. Also, it was well documented that the Twin Towers were designed to withstand a crash of a large passenger airplane.

I completed my mechanical engineering degree in summer of 09. I am currently job searching. I have little engineering experience outside of school and I am excited to start building energy and transportation systems, inexpensive and efficient housing, and agricultural machines. I have a minor in physics and I had excellent professors in statics, mechanics of materials, and material science.
Where do you start? If a plane hit the pentagon, why wont they release a video which shows this. There certainly should have been more plane parts in shanksville and the pentagon. Even if the fire was hot enough to melt the metal of the plane, where are the tons of molten metal? Building 7 is obvious demolition. The biggest inconsistency with building 7 and the towers is that stress would have been concentrated where the planes hit or where the fires were buring, however fracture does not occur at this stress concentration but rather at the base of the structures.

Worked 2 years at DoD (Offutt AFB) doing architectural assessments, as an apprentice architect. Started with the National Park Service in 1984 as a Historical Architect (preservation). Still with the NPS.
The evidence produced as the official story related to the supposed collapse of three buildings at ground zero in New York City simply cannot be true. Much more comprehensive, scienfitic evidence has been independently produced. Mounds of evidence were rapidly removed from the site, and the presence of molten metals and dust particles containing evidence of thermate are too compelling to ignore. The official story, however, does just that. It is an insult to our professional intelligence to take the official story at face value. Too many questions remain as to exactly what happened on 9/11/01.

There is undeniable evidence that WTC buildings 1, 2, and 7, falling in a very synchronous and even manner, were man-induced demolitions. The government has never presented anything concrete that proves otherwise. NIST's presented data is so inconclusive it is simply hilarious. Wake up people, and force the government to expose the truth. There are people in government who must fall for this, including a couple of presidents.

I have two years' experience with utility hardware marketing and technical support, and three years' experience with electrical design layout and specification.
The freefall acceleration of Building 7, which NIST admits to, is not explained credibly by their computer model. The twin towers should not have fallen at all, since they were in static equilibrium, then suddenly explosively collapsed through the path of most resistance.

I'm just a regular person that thinks that the 9/11 event was planned and executed by the government.
The fact that they even fell is to me proof that it was not a regular crash, because there were bombs at the Oklahoma building bombing and it still stayed up.

There is no plausible explanation for the destruction of Building #7 of the World Trade Towers other than that it was imploded by a professional demolitions company. It is implausible to believe that this was the result of any fatal flaw being identified on September 11, 2001 and that a demolition crew was brought in to plant explosives on that day after the planes had struck the two main towers of that complex, nor has any such explanation even been advanced by any authority. Given that such explosives had clearly been placed in this building prior to the other events of September 11, 2001 it is clear that such explosives might also have been placed in the other towers. This would also explain the reason that the two main towers collapsed so well into their own footprints. The American People deserve to know the truth of what happened on September 11, 2001 and I, as one such citizen, demand to have a more consistent explanation than any which has been offered so far.

I worked in downtown NYC and had an business appointment in Tower 2 on the 87th floor on Sept 11 at 2pm. I witnessed that morning the most unexpected cancellation and horrific destruction of life and property in my entire life. I worked at 45 Broadway on the 9th floor and went to work after seeing both towers hit by planes and burning rampantly. I didn't fear any collapse and with all the media coverage accepted the stories of the fire causing the collapses. But I had a colleague who was behind the Deutsche Bank building and heard the explosive charges going off, which caused him to run for his life. Having lived in France the past 3 years, I clearly see beyond the American medias control of information and that this monstrous cover-up must be revealed with the truth.

I agree with you that there needs to be an independent investigation. I too find it odd that they fell in a way that building fall when professionally demolished, which for something as enormously high as the Twin Towers, would be a incredible feat as well as 'record breaking' in he history of demolition. At first I thought the explosion might have been explained by the fact that both planes had nearly full fuel tanks, which of course would have highly explosive capacities. However, this fuel tank explosion would have most definitely been ignited upon impact and NOT anytime thereafter. Photo/film evidence shows that before the towers fell, there was a separate explosion that can clearly be seen. This evidence alone was compelling enough for me before even reading the list of all other supporting theory factors.

I am a journalist by trade and have interviewed witnesses of many unusual events and in all cases there was a logical explanation. The official story of the WTC towers makes no logical sense. One cannot deduce from the evidence that destruction of metal and concrete can occur by fire. It is clear from the video evidence that the three world trade center buildings were destroyed from the inside using classic demolition techniques. One does not need to be an architect or engineer to understand this fact.

It is without a doubt that the collapsing of three World Trade Center buildings in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001 were premeditated in nature, and executed in clearly a controlled demolition format. The evidence provided by AE911Truth is unlike anything of its kind, and definitively proves, in my opinion, that the U.S. Government issued logic behind the events of that day, is in fact just the opposite of that.

I am quite skeptical regarding the implosion style manner in which the Buildings fell, which has never happened in the past when a building has been hit by a plane. I have read numerous books on the subject of 9/11, including those by David Ray Griffin, and feel that there are too many unanswered questions to support the official mainstream explanation.

For the first few years after the 9/11 attacks I accepted the official story on why the WTC towers collapsed. It was only after reading Steven Jones paper Why Indeed Did the World Trade Center Buildings Completely Collapse? in 2006 that I seriously considered the case for controlled demolition of the buildings. It was the weight of the forensic evidence uncovered by Jones and others that convinced me that the official account cannot be correct.

Even the info released within days of collapsed buildings shows that planes DID NOT bring the buildings down.

I first became aware that the government was up to something when I heard repeated NSA press releases, beginning in the Spring of 2001 stating that this top secret gov't agency could not keep up with global information traffic. As a student of American History I instantly identified this as a high profile plausible deniability campaign and I was convinced that there would be a black flag terrorist attack designed in part to rally the nation around the unpopular Bush regime. Shortly before the attacks, the NSA brought the broadcast media into its secret sanctum for the first time in history, where this statement was repeated. I watched intently as the buildings collapsed. There was never a doubt in my mind from the very outset of 9/11 that this was an inside job.

I was in Paris at the time 9/11 occurred. Watching the buildings come crashing down on TV, even then it looked far too suspicious. All the data I've looked at since then has only solidified by belief that those buildings could not have come down the way they did without careful planning and preparation far in advance. That was in every way a planned demolition. Most especially, Bldg. 7 is the smoking gun - nothing hit that building except some falling debris, which hit the many other buildings around as well without doing more than break windows. We need a real investigation, not a white-wash.

Looking at Niels Harrit's scientific article about the found of nano-thermite there's now even physical prof that explosives where used to take down the buildings. Besides that it is also evident by just watching the videos with news clips available from the day of 9/11, that there are thousands of details that where not taken into consideration when creating the official story.

After spending 20 years or so in commercial broadcasting in Western Canada and another twenty years as a janitor I find early retirement is the next phase of my life;injuries incurred as the result of job-downsizing have left my smashed knee in need of a complete knee replacement.I still consider myself fortunate when I consider the poor souls who never got the chance to live out their natural lives due the Trade Towers take-down.Their survivors at least deserve the truth.
Like the man said9/11 was an inside job.The recent evidence of nano-thermite and thermite residue found at the 9/11 towers site strongly suggests ,if not proves outright that the heinous crime of planes being flown deliberately into the towers was augmented terribly by the planting of thermte incendiary devices in the building as Mr Gage and his fellow architects and scientists have demonstrated. The building security folks at the time should be subpoenaed and hauled up in front of a grand jury to give their explanations of the events leading up to the buildings' take-down.

I will do all I can to immediately convene an independent, scientific re-evaluation of the reasons the Towers collapsed as well as investigate who, precisely, was most likely responsible for 9/11 and the events that followed in its wake (e.g., The Patriot Act, The Anthrax scare, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, how Israel benefited from 9/11...and so on). Hopefully this all can be done ASAP. Keep fighting the good fight! Vaughn

I'm a concerned and aware citizen. I've not been impressed by what the US government has presented as evidence. To the contrary, the government's case for the 'official story' is very thin, lacking scientific and factual basis.Just one tiny example: cell phones still do not function from airplanes at cruising altitude, thus undermining a key aspect of the official account. There is NO WAY that such calls could have connected to relay info about hijackers and box cutters. No way at all.Norman Minetta's crucial testimony was also omitted from the 9/11 Report. I'm also concerned that 70% of the 9/11 family member's questions remain unanswered.
The media, Popular Mechanics and politicians continually claim that the skyscrapers 'collapsed', when it is obvious to anyone with their eyes open that the twin towers exploded, while Building 7 imploded. Mid-air pulverization, pyroclastic clouds of dust, high-velocity ejections, rapid, uniform descent and the total absence of office equipment, furniture or bodies all point to one thing: explosives.

I am a 3D Designer who is a dedicated, hard-working and understands the priority of a Deadline. I am always looking for the next challenge, while finding more efficient ways to better my work and myself. My work is reflected through the use of, Autodesk 3DS Max/Maya and the Adobe Image & Video Suite.
* The fires in WTC 7 were not evenly distributed, so a perfect collapse was impossible. * Explosions occurred in WTC 7 before it sustained any damage from the twin towers' collapses. * Silverstein said to the fire department commander the smartest thing to do is pull it. * Firefighters withdrawing from the area stated the building was going to blow up. * The building subsequently collapsed perfectly into its footprint. * Molten steel and partially evaporated steel members were found in the debris.

Zeitgeist is a German language expression literally translated: Zeit, time; Geist, spirit, meaning the spirit of the age and its society. The word zeitgeist describes the intellectual, cultural, ethical, and political climate, ambiance, and morals of an era or also a trend. In German, the word has more layers of meaning than the English translation, including the fact that Zeitgeist can only be observed for past events.
We deserve the truth. The manipulation of the masses must be stopped at all costs.

Most young people I talk to know what happened, so I'm very excited about potential for a new investigation. Thank you AE911Truth!

Traveled the 3D and 4D worlds and understand the law of physics - these buildings came down in free fall speed, therefore, there was no resistance, therefore the buildings were not pancaking.
It is scientifically impossible for buildings to come down in free-fall speed (which it did, the video footage proves this) without the 'aid' of some kind of explosive within the buildings that removed any obstacles/debris that would prevented this (the collapse in free-fall speed).

I have been a student of architecture and structural mechanics for nearly 25 years. I was born in 1958 and have been an artist, musician, acoustician, and pianofortologist for 30 years. In my work as a mechanical artist, I study the superstructure of items very carefully. In 1984, I was permanently disabled with a back injury which has left me crippled.
As a student of architecture and studying the construction of the WTC towers, I believe that the probabilities of these buildings collapsing into their foundations is so astronomical that it falls well into the realm of the impossible.
