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.

So many things I have heard and seen about the destruction of the twin tower buildings, I did not understand. I thought my material science and building construction lectures set me up pretty well with all the principals if not all the mathematics. So how come the buildings just dropped like a stone? Why didn't they fall sideways? The planes did not hit dead centre! and they hit more columns on one side! Why does the mast on top of the building start collapsing before the top deck? Why does the top of the building just start breaking up straight away? Why does it not move as one piece above where the planes hit? Why was there so much dust, billowing clouds,surely not including asbestos? Then they fall down in less than 3 hours? (approx 80minutes and 120minutes) Whats wrong with the Fireproofing? What sort of fuel burns hotter than diesel or petrol also stored in these buildings? What destroys the fireproofing and melts steel, not just makes it sag. Why Molten Metal in the basements weeks after the collapse? Whelen the Wrecker men with boots too hot to wear? Despite continually flooding the basement the fires continue to burn without oxygen. Then a third 47 Storey WTC building fell, again dropping like a stone, despite only being hit by the main tower only on one side. In the Towering Inferno movie the building stays up, time for people to get out despite chaos. We as architects and engineers need to know how to stop the next terrorist plane knocking down one of our buildings.

In January 2004 I stumbled on a web site that showed evidence that the WTC buildings were brought down by controlled demolition on 9/11. It is clear that the buildings had help to bring them down. The collapses of WTC towers 1 and 2 were obviously far more energetic events than can be explained by some sort of progressive gravitational collapse initiated by a simple weakening of the structure by hydrocarbon fire. Here I am thinking of the tremendous dust clouds (pyroclastic flows) and the nearly free fall speed. Building 7, not hit by a plane, appears to have been a classic controlled demolition, and perfectly symmetrically executed.

I was born in Culver City California, in 1954. I earned a B.A. in English Literature from Loyola Marymount University, in 1976. Since that time I have worked in various capacities, mostly in the arts. For the past 2 years I have worked with Dr. David Ray Griffin and other committed 9/11 truth activists to create the organization: Actors & Artists for 9/11 Truth. (AA911).
On the morning of September 11, 2001, I was stunned. Like millions of concerned world citizens, I stared in horror as the shocking devastation of the tragic events unfolded on television. Still, a few disturbing questions almost immediately haunted me. 1. I could not understand how a handful of terrorists armed with crude hand tools could possibly outwit the most elaborate defense apparatus in world history. 2. Recalling the immediate response, when professional golfer Payne Stewart's small private jet veered off course years ago, it seemed highly implausible that four hijacked commercial jetliners would fly unhindered through U.S airspace for a considerable time period without one of them being intercepted. 3. The strangely symmetrical and uniform collapse of the two twin towers did not correspond with ANYTHING in my experience. The only comparison I could draw was to special effects in Hollywood action films. For a few weeks, I mourned and closely followed accounts of the events, as explained by pundits on mainstream media. All the while, I resisted the darkly unthinkable conspiratorial scenarios taking vague shape in my mind. One day, I finally googled up 9/11 to explore the alternative views. My skin crawled at the volume of information which confirmed my darkest suspicions. Thus began my decade long odyssey as a 9/11 truth activist.

I can testify that the destruction of the World Trade Center was a crime scene. The greatest crime against the mainland of the United States was perpetrated and as such it deserves the greatest scrutiny to bring those responsible for this crime to justice. We the American people have the right to a through investigation. The murder of over 1,700 people is no trivial matter. It demands justice and we as a people deserve TRUTH! The previous investigation was underfunded and not done thoroughly. The second greatest crime against this country other than Pearl Harbor demands a complete investigation.

Bachelor's degree as occupation stated. I ended up at Anheuser Busch Marketing department where my coworker's dad was head maintenance guy for both of the Twin Towers since the prior bombing in 1995(?). He was in the basement when the explosions went off and knew it was exactly as the 1995 explosions, so he yelled at his crew to get out as soon as possible. They escaped as the building was falling and ran out into the street and jumped into Hudson River. Then picked up by a boat, but had a mild heart attack from this. He said bombs exploding and had no clue of planes so called hitting it? Retired now because of health and the employer is gone. Only so called 2 buildings hit, never Building #7, so that proves it was rigged with explosives. Also learned #7 was full of gold that was stolen? Also, Building's owner had double insured the building to maximize the few months prior, and even emptied out the building weeks/months prior...Coincidence? Meanwhile, other coworker's husband was at the Pentagon that day in a different corner than where it was hit and after the explosion from a bomb, called his wife to let her know he was ok in case she heard on the news about it. He never mentions a plane hit it. Next day we asked her what hubby said and she said she was not allowed to talk about it because he worked for the government. How suspicious is that and that no camera caught it? Coverup. So, yes, it's all a big sham that Bush was behind. Those involved need to be arrested and executed for crimes against humanity as Trumps Executive Order states!

I was working in Tower 1 in 1993 and pregnant with my youngest son when the parking garage was bombed. When I watched the towers fall in 2001, I felt like I was losing my best friend. I don't know why - it was just like watching someone die.
The first time I realized that there might be more to the destruction of the Twin Towers than airliners purposely flown into them was after viewing Zeitgeist. If our government can be behind the spread of so much disinformation, and secretly mastermind the manipulation of global currency, military coups, assassinations, and the destruction of our own freedoms here in the US, why not bring down the largest buildings in the world, blame it on someone else, to involve us in yet another war we were never meant to win, and all for the perpetuation and feeding of the Military Industrial Complex.

My class drew paintings of 9/11 and collages, which were featured in the MoMA in NYC. We were students who had been in the midst of the tragedy. I was mentally affected by the 9/11 demolition, also physically. It was not a terrorist attack. I was there that day, outside looking at the towers, and the smoke was white and the fires were minimal. There's no way that the fires brought it down.
I was standing in front of my College located on Chambers Street Manhattan. I looked up and the first building was lightly on fire, not heavily on fire. I was a student at the time, and they told us to go outside and go home. Suddenly and strangely the trains were no longer allowed. So I had to walk from Manhattan into Brooklyn passed Canal street, passed the Williamsburg Bridge by foot just to get home that morning. I was just a teenager then. I was afraid that the terrorists would blow up the bridges or something next, but oddly it was just the three towers, nothing else in New York. As I was looking at the towers, in my head I thought, hey I have to get home because these buildings might fall on me or something. But oddly the towers didn't fall sideways, they fell straight down. Things just don't add up. Why was all transportation stoped if they heard terrorism was to blame? Why did they clean up all the evidence so fast? The air quality was really bad, yet they wanted us back to school right away. Chambers street isn't so far away from the towers. My college was nearby the site, yet they were quick about getting things up and running as soon as possible. My friend and I both are suffering from health issues, which leads me to believe that the air quality did damage to people in New York. I feel like 9/11 was indeed a controlled demolition. The truth has not been told to us.

From what I've learned over the years, in my experience working with architects and engineers in the area of building demolition, the official explanation of how the 9/11 structures collapsed simply does not make sense. I've lived in cities where controlled demolition of large buildings took place to prepare sites for new construction projects and personally witnessed the demolition of the former Atlanta Stadium in preparation for the new Olympic Stadium complex. The manner in which those structures came down are too similar to the manner in which the 9/11 buildings collapsed - very controlled with little spillover, so to speak.

What I saw from Hoboken that morning, was a large contract for a few companies to Repair those Holes and infrastructure....... that construction would probably last a few years. And that was all that should have happened. In no way, shape or form, did I believe that those buildings would just come down like that...that is beyond my wildest imagination of engineering and how it works. Especially another building would still collapse at evening in the exact form... was just the last straw, for me. I had more questions than answers. Yet now I feel that I was not taught the science of Engineering based on false theories and principles of science., but that in fact , there is more of a problem with the explanations that the news was promoting. These explanation can take 200 years , to analyze but in the end the Truth is The Truth.... Just as Galileo found out for sure concerning the Earth.

I fully believe that 9/11 was perpetrated by the government. The mainstream media is preventing the public from releasing any information to the masses and that the official story is BULLSHIT! The buildings came down in a controlled demolition. The explosions 50 stories below the actual collapsing sections PROVE IT! And what about building 7? I know that building 7 was a controlled demolition because 1.) that little fire cannot possibly cause the building to fail 2.) i saw a demolition that looked EXACTLY LIKE THIS first hand! I want answers now for the future of my generation and my children. This country used to be a free country and now I am doubting the future of the USA.

As a result, I am very detail oriented when viewing and remembering how things happen.
I witnessed the collapse of bldgs 1 &2 from the roof of a 14 story building on 25th St and 6th Ave. I realized that the collapse definitely was not from the planes because the buildings did not bend toward the plane entry but the tops of each building seemed to disappear as if there was no structure to support them. The explosions that resulted from the collapse also appeared to be symmetrical and simultaneous around the whole structure of each building and not from the site of impact.

I was witnessing everything across the Hudson river in jersey city. the way the buildings collapsed, didn't make any sense. I was thinking it would of burned itself out. From where i was, it looked like the smoke was dying down. Then out of nowhere, the south tower collapsed. By now the fire in the north tower looked like it was also dying out. I thought that the north tower would hold, since the damage was limited to the upper floors. Then the north tower collapses. It didn't make sense that that a couple floors of building caused so much damage attributed to gravity. I want to know why, and how that happened. Why wasn't there any resistance?

don't believe official account. How could those towers fall so perfectly down? Why was the steel not tested? Why is building 7 not even mentioned? Where is the video of a plane hitting the pentagon? Where are the bodies in PA? How could a new pearl harbor have been scripted by Neocons 4 years earlier and just happen to come true? How did Atta's passport survive but no black boxes?
Why were first hand witnesses ignored? How did the insurance gt doubled on those buildings so soon before the attack? How did explosions happen in basement seconds before impact? How did the concrete get turned to dust?

After watching many hours of online information and reading a few books on the subject, I doubt almost all of the US Government's official explanation of the cause of the destruction of the three World Trade Center buildings that occurred on 9/11/2001. I consider the use of explosives as a possible cause for the collapses as valid and worthy of further investigation.
