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.

The collapse of Building 1,2 &7 are so similar to controlled demolition of other buildings...that it isn't even funny. Fire does not cause buildings to collapse at near free fall speed! Why does the government want to suppress a new independent investigation? We as the American people, not just professionals need to demand a new truly independent investigation!

From my experience with aluminum and bronze alloys in the casting industry, I am aware of the difference between the melting temperatures of certain alloys such as aluminum and steel. At the same time, my experience with mechanical and physical testing of materials makes it difficult to believe the NIST conclusion that the collapse of WTC building 7 was attributed to the fire in that building alone. The basic fundementals of mechanics of materials and structural analysis of the steel columns makes the NIST conclusion difficult to accept based on scientific and engineering principals. A futher investigation using a scientific approach applied to the steel columns of this building was required in order to determine the actual contributing and root cause of the building collapse including the distorted condition of the salvaged steel from 09/11/2001.

2 aircraft hit 2 buildings and 3 buildings collapse. WOW! 3 buildings collapse at free fall speed, but there were only 2 aircraft. WOW! Pancaking would take much longer to collapse WTC1&2 and the rubble pile would be much higher. The basements had to be cleared in order to take the volume of the material. WTC7 did not pancake, as seen from the footage this was controlled demolition as confirmed by the landlord.

Graduated from Berkeley in 1962 - the beginning of the radical years. HUAC hearings in San Francisco, blatant government lies about Vietnam, CIA involvement in Central and South America, all these things make me very suspicious. The truth needs to be exposed. I'm perfectly happy to accept that no conspiracy happened on 9/11 if it can be demonstrated, but we must know the facts.
This has always seemed strange to me, along with the Pentagon attack where no photographs actually show penetration by an airplane. Whether there was a conspiracy or not, when the government hides facts and information there must be more investigation.

Honegger was the first 9/11 researcher to note the interlocked 9/11 wargames and anti-terrorism hijack-scenario exercises as the central organizing principle of the planning, execution and cover up of the Sept. 11 attacks, called the 'Holy Grail' of 9/11 research by Michael Ruppert in his early 9/11 expose book Crossing the Rubicon. Honegger's Scarlet A: The Anthrax Links to 9/11 was featured and is archived at www.OpEdNews.com and in the Oct. 2008 edition of the independent Washington, D.C. paper The Rock Creek Free Press.
The real story of 9/11 at both the WTC (1,2 and 7, the latter not hit by any plane) and the Pentagon is inside-the-bldg. explosives with planes as the PsyOps cover story. See my findings re the latter featured in David Ray Griffin's latest 9/11 expose book The New Pearl Harbor Revisited, Chapter 2, 'Reports of Bombs' (at the Pentagon).

Clear evidence of demolition (molten steel over 2800F when hydrocarbon fires burn 1800F or lower), building 7 clearly demolished - collapsing without major fire, a definite new Pearl Harbor which has now freed us of much Liberty (USA PATRIOT Act, Military Commissions Act, removal of Posse Comitatus, emergency executive orders, illegally spying and an unchecked intrusion against our liberties across the board). And now we've sent our troops around the world attacking other nations with now unproven cause, and with no end in sight even under our new president-elect. It has to stop. The truth must be told, and those willing to do so must stand absolutely firm and resolute in their determination. Are there any such men out there?

I have taken enough physics in high school and college to very basically understand the laws of thermodynamics. It didn't take long after 9/11 for myself and many alike to realize that the official story of pancaking along with near freefall speeds clearly violated the conservation of energy in a system. There had to be another explanation and AE911Truth has provided the most visually compelling presentation of evidence thus far.
I saw it happen on TV along with the rest of the world. I knew right away that something was not right. Over the years, I have followed practically every tidbit of information regarding what I believe is the most amazing thing I have ever witnessed. AE911Truth has wonderfully encapsulated just enough of that day and revealed so much detail from a relatively short span of recorded time as to cast a shadow of doubt 115 stories high. They have conclusively proven what I thought all along: buildings don't 'accidentally' fall into their own footprints, and definitely not three in the same day within a few blocks of each other.

After viewing the work of Barry Zwicker and Steven Jones, (among others) I no longer feel that the explanation given to the world by the 9/11 Commission of how the Twin Towers and Building 7 collapsed is legitimate. It is clear to me that the impact of an airliner and the fire caused by it could not have caused either of those buildings to completely disintegrate. The many witness testimonials that I have seen have also shown that there was molten steel at the base of towers 1 and 2 that can only be accounted for by explosives. It is also clear to see on the video footage that many explosives were detonated throughout all three of these buildings. The world deserves an explanation and a true investigation on how and why these buildings were destroyed.

For many years I lead the 9 / 11 and try to examine every detail of it. I know that this is not only easy but together we can learn the truth! Here in Poland there is a group of people who do everything right to come to light. It's not only the Americans, the obligation of all people who are not indifferent to the world in which they live! I post videos related to 9/11 on http://www.youtube.com/user/911PL.
I think that collapsing of individual buildings of WTC complex it is at least alarming. We have the plenty of signals and evidence for it that twin the WTC towers and WTC 7 could be pulled to collapse by CD. It is necessary to examine all evidence in order to find the truth!

I was shocked to see that there was no pancaking effect at the bottom of the wtc. after looking into the fema report i don't feel they have given an accurate explanation to the collapse of the towers. why are there puffs of smoke coming out of windows 20 floors from where the building is collapsing and also why is it that the spike in the wtc falls internally before the outside of the building started to collapse as this is where the core structure is and the most strength should be. How did pieces of steel end up in Deutche Bank and bone fragments?

I graduated from a Connecticut Boarding school, Canterbury, and earned my college degree in the sciences. It is my career and my specialty to scrutinize details in images, the subtexts in messages, and to deduce meaning from frozen fragments of time. It is clear to me by the evidence in the visual archives of the day that the truth about what happened to those buildings is not yet public knowledge. I am convinced that this is a strictly legal matter. Force independence, neutrality, and the scientific method down the throats of all who would deny it.
The events of September eleventh, 2001 are so vastly complex and multi-faceted it is easy for me to see how fatigue may develop in the course of one's trying to understand the official story. The 911 Commission Report is as wish-washy and wrought with contradictions as much of the holy bible. TELL US ABOUT BUILDING 7!!! What is going to happen to the investigations of big crime like the Enron California energy swindle, and on and on...

I am currently a journalism student at a community college. I write for the school newspaper, participate in a bit of photo-journalism. I do not have extensive experience in journalism, but I'm getting my start somewhere. Topics such as 911 pique my interest and I would love to write well-researched and informative articles about these topics.
I was 16 when the towers collapsed. I remember it was just before I was about to go to school (I live on the West Coast) when my mother came in and informed me of an attack on the United States. When I saw the first tower fall, I cried; when I saw the second fall, I cried even harder and -at the same time- tried to figure out how two buildings fall at seemingly the same speed. Since then, I have been in the minority group known as the Truth for 911 movement. I am not technically sound, or even scientifically/mathematically gifted, but I do know that how the buildings fell do not make sense to me. The more I researched the subject, the more I found that the official reports did not add up. Since then, I have given speeches that discredit the 911 commission report; I have taken a lot of flak from doing so, yet I have made many others aware that it all doesn't add up. I just want to do my part; I'm here to help any way I can.

Besides being a professional photographer for 17 years, including architectural photography, I have a great interest in architecture and designing. I redesigned and rebuilt the structure and interior of half of my house (foundations, brick work, steel support beams, plumbing, electricity, carpentry, etc). As a photographer, I am an excellent observer and also have a natural feel for physics and construction. Psychology and sociology are also great interests of mine.
When I saw the WTC collapses live on TV, I felt intuitively that something was not right about how symmetrical and fast they were, especially when the 2nd tower fell in exactly the same manner. Also, the enormous dust clouds seemed inexplicable just from collapse. Something else that seemed suspicious to me in the years following is that there were no more attacks, not even small ones in subways which are peanuts to the 911 attacks. In 2004, I finally had a closer look at some of the videos of the event. For me, the most obvious incongruity with the official story was that huge steel beams were being ejected not only horizontally, but even at a slight upward angle. You can literally see the tops of the buildings explode. I spent several weeks researching more video material, including many eyewitness testimonies, but it wasn't until watching a talk by David Ray Griffin that I was able to fully accept the truth about 911. Then I started focusing on the main stream media's treatment of people questioning the official story, and that hit me even harder than the actual crime itself. This was above all a psychological operation, and judging by how hard it is for most people to accept the reality of what happened, a very successful one. Whoever planned it knew that people are generally good-hearted and just cannot believe that there could be such evil in their own government. The fact that they did it in broad daylight attests to this. One of my toughest questions was: Weren't they worried about all the video evidence and witness testimony that would undoubtedly surface? NO, they were not, in my opinion! They knew exactly what they were doing, and had the power to carry it out, including the cover-up and propaganda. And to be blunt, they succeeded and got off scot free, so far... But the truth always comes out in the end. The only question is when and will it be on time? (see the JFK assassination). One thing they may have underestimated is the power of the internet and thus the mass spreading of information and proof. But in my opinion, it won't be the scientific proof that wakes the people up. For that they would have to want to be awakened, and in my experience most don't. This is about a huge paradigm shift. Sadly, the only thing that is going to make that possible is more suffering. Maybe the collapse of the economy will get enough people thinking and on their feet. Sometimes we have to take one step back to be able to move forward. I remember thinking during the Bush years that in some twisted way, we should be thankful for a sad excuse for a president like that because he has everything in him to make people realize that it IS important to be involved in (or at the least be well-informed about) politics, and to learn from history. It is the responsibility of every freedom loving citizen to question their leaders and demand accountability. I keep my eyes on the horizon, and just as 911 had the power to change the world for the bad, the grand awakening will have the power to truly change the world for the good. All illusions will be blown out of the water and people will once again start to think for themselves. I applaud and thank Richard Gage, whom I saw speaking in Belgium in november 2008, for everything he is doing.

I just watched all video evidence since 911, and kept getting informed about that sad event. I work as web designer and video analyst for Mediagrif and other small Co.
I looked about every video possible on Internet, reed about the subject more then any normal person would be interested. And my theory is, that it is planned to happen, either US government have let it happened, or they did it themselves. No buildings have ever failed in those way, its clear that a simultaneous implosion occurred, the roof line of the WT7 says it all, it stays as a straight line all the way down. That's impossible unless it is planned to be. And if you consider that, that building is made to withstand about any damages...I just don't believe it..

Where is the Mushroom Cloud effect on the Building 7 collapse? If all three buildings were taken down by internal fires, why is the collapse so dramatically different between the first two and the last? The collapse of Building 7 looks like a perfect, professional demolition to anyone with common sense.

The most simple litmus test to view any of the events of September 11, 2001 is to apply scientific method to any of the events, take your pick, which occurred on that day. Given a circumspect, non subjective posture (all emotion removed) it becomes quite clear very quickly that there is too much conjecture being applied to any of the five major events, WTC1, WTC2, WTC7, The Pentagon Crash and the Shanksville Crash that does not support the evidence at hand. In the end the stumbling block, hurdle if you will, becomes one of crossing the line of belief that is simply impossible that any individual, government or cooperative group could venture to be so nefarious to pull off a precision military style strike against innocent civilians. Yet this conclusion must be dealt with in the end, given all the impossibilities happening on a single day in history, Glenn Oliveira

I just someone who's taken the time to look at all sides of the argument, and I have come out strongly on the side of the 9/11 Truth Movment. More needs to be done, and if this petition helps in that direction, then I am doing the right thing.

A building suffering a lateral strike would lead to a structural inequality amongst the support columns causing a toppling effect, amplified by the height of the collapsing top section-FACT!! This together with thermate residue, molten metal, speed of collapse, explosive spread of debris, squibs and the top section vaporizing thus nullifying any toppling fulcrum and mass induced momentum is physically impossible without demolition. All the physical evidence is actually IRREFUTABLE, IMPOSSIBLE without controlled demolition, combine it with all the circumstantial evidence and there is no doubt! 911 is the 'Rosetta stone' for decoding the broader master plan of the instigators.

Worked as a quality assurance representative for an aerospace firm. Included stress testing of metal components.
The contradiction between NIST's belated acknowledgment of the free fall of WTC Building 7 and its scientific explanation of the impossibility of the phenomenon in connection with the official theory should be sufficient to initiate a subsequent investigation into what really happened.

Currently most people I know would rather tune out or ignore this information because what it means is almost unbearably sinister, but ignoring it is going to come at a higher price than 9/11 itself.

Worked as architectural intern at Ellerbe Becket in MN from 1994 to 1998. Various architectural offices in south Louisiana. Heavy on the artistic end. Went into photojournalism, which is a better fit. Worked briefly in Englewood, NJ as an unlicensed architect. Now editor, writer and photographer for weekly newspaper in Northern New Jersey. Can see Manhattan from many a corner in Kearny where I live.
Having a working knowledge of strength of materials, construction of buildings and statics as part of my education, I feel these findings have much merit. While I am not an expert on steel structure a basic knowledge of the material make these assertions plausible enough to warrant an appropriate investigation by those who do have this knowledge and the security questions they are posing.
