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.

I have worked on many high power broadcast antennas and I'm very familiar with the structural aspects of which they are mounted. The company I work for provided an emergency replacement for the CH 11 antenna which went down that was on top of the World Trade Center. Even the way that the antenna fell almost completely vertically, suggests a controlled demolition.
I have been looking into the evidence provided. I truly believe that there is absolutely no way that these buildings could have collapsed the way that they did without controlled demolition. If we can get the American people and the world to realize this, then maybe we can hold those responsible accountable.

I graduated from the United States Military Academy in 2002 with a B.S. in Civil Engineering. I served as an officer for five years of active duty, serving two tours of duty in Iraq as a tank platoon leader and a trainer for the Iraqi Army. I currently build new stores, remodel & expand existing stores, and build fuel facilities for The Kroger Company.
As a civil engineering student at West Point on 9/11 when the World Trade Center buildings collapsed, I marveled at the explanation that jet fuel could melt through structural steel, how the buildings could collapse straight down at near free-fall speeds through the path of greatest resistance, and how many witnesses reported hearing explosions. After further research and hearing the commentary of fellow professionals, I could not concur with the official explanation offered by the government & the 9/11 Commission.

Having watched a number of films on how buildings are brought down on their own footprints as a kid, my immediate reaction to seeing the towers fall was controlled demolition. Another question that came to mind, being a former Navy pilot and knowing SOP (Standard Operating Procedures) for hijacked aircraft, was where were the interceptors? That is a question that has never been adequately explained, to my knowledge.

It has become very obvious over the years that the 3 buildings collapsed in free fall in what can only be a controlled demolition. For a fire to have simultaneously melted all columns causing collapse from one floor and then to another is physically impossible. That the 3 buildings are the only structural steel buildings to have ever collapsed in such a manner in history and all on the same day is reason enough to raise questions about the accuracy of the original investigation. For the sake of the freedom of humanity, questions need to be answered and people must be held accountable to discover the truth of what occurred on 9/11/2001.

I need to understand the truth behind business requirements to be able to deliver solutions that will add value, provide flexibility, and have a significant life-span. I use critical thinking to achieve these results consistently.
Visual examination of the towers collapsing is at odds with a merely gravitational powered causation. The debris expelled from WTC1 & 2, and the symmetrical collapse of WTC7 are not simply due to any weakened structural components. There has also not been a thorough investigation of these events, having instead partial reports that coincidentally just decide to stop examining the evidence, and deliver a non-fact based conclusion. We deserve to know all we can about this tragic day as Americans.

I'm signing this petition because I've devoted a great deal of time watching both raw news clips, amateur video footage, and multiple documentaries surrounding the 9/11 tragedies. I've also tuned in to three separate radio programs which have interviewed engineers. I'm familiar with much of the data behind the conspiracy claims and also the casual and official debunking reports. With all of that in mind, I do believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the buildings did not fall due to the two plane impacts and resulting fires. There had to be thermite or a similar demolition-grade incendiary involved to collapse the three buildings.

I have heard too much from educated people I trust who believe the government's explanation for the WTC's collapse is inadequate. I am not a conspiracy theorist, but we need to get all the information - FACTS - researched and accounted for.

TC Group, is a management consulting and business development concern, Gibran Enterprise is Commercial Real Estate management and investment firm, and Wealth Genesis is Financial Planning and Advisory. I currently reside in Wisconsin.
No amount of ignorant mumbo jumbo spewed by the government or media can dispute the facts in evidence. These three buildings were brought down methodically and on purpose, airplane collision could be the trigger, however, it was not the cause of the collapse.

Thought it was ashamed to see all those people die and no investigation is being made of bin laden is he being blamed and it was as Bush said to the American people that he wants him dead or alive and still he is walking around. You say we have the best military in the world!? It's not me but everyone knows it is a big cover up. Building 7 wasn't hit by anything and it's common sense that if it fell it would go over and hit other buildings not flat like a pancake! The political world needs to get a LIFE.

I am an Irish man living happily in Leeds with my Scottish wife Grace for the past ten years or so. I work in the IT sector, while my wife is in public health administration. We are both actively interested in national and international politics and current events. Other interests include various sports - I was a keen volleyball player for many years, now favour pool and snooker as my body becomes less forgiving of mistreatment - maybe a little tennis too, though again, not so often.
We were on our honeymoon in Crete when the attacks happened - it was mid-day local-time and i was flicking through the TV - it was way too hot to go outside at the time. I came across a channel (some exported SKY NEWS variant) that had Bush making an announcement about something evidently, from the tone and language, awful that had just happened. We saw much coverage from just before the second plane strike, through to aftermath of towers one and two collapse. I couldn't believe it then, and don't believe it now and applaud your efforts to get at the real truth behind this stain on the history of all humanity.

It would seem prudent to conduct an open analysis and investigation to bring closure; also to build a model or simulation would seem helpful, say a 40 story model to scale out in a Nebraska field. Even if it cost half a billion dollars and 2 years to build. This country has tons of old airliners. Have Boeing drone one to scale, fly it into the model tower, and set scientific equipment and video to monitor the results.

I am a musician and IT technician who is the daughter of an electronic engineer. Many a discussion has arisen regarding the events of 9/11. Many an argument has also made itself apparent as well. I wish that more investigation could be put into motion to settle some of these arguments! And to let the American people know what we're dealing with here...
I watched live on TV when the Twin Towers collapsed. I remember saying out loud after the first collapse, It looks like that building was demolished! But I didn't question the truths we were offered. It was such a huge tragedy that it was overwhelming to believe anything but what we were being told. However, over the years, I've done so much research regarding the collapse of the towers - especially Tower 7 - that I have no choice but to hang in limbo awaiting the REAL truth. Tower 7 was apparently pulled, no matter how unsure I am about Towers 1 & 2. Tower 7 was demolished. Plain and simple. Now... I want to know how and why.

Never before or since has this happened. We have no security video of one of the most secure buildings in the world. We saw the controlled collapse of three major buildings in broad daylight and a cover up. The NYPD and FDNY families do not believe it was from the plane crash. I believe the government knew in advance and we are seeing the beginning of a greater plan for the governing of the world.
