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.

Controlled demolition. My guess is that plan A was to expect twin towers to fall in two pieces or even one piece in order to increase the shock on population, that's the reason why they exploded basement columns before the lateral impact. Plan B was what they did when plan A failed.

I watched the burning of the WTC towers and was confused by what I was seeing in the showers of sparks coming out of the building in various places. Then I was shocked, not only at the collapse of the buildings, but the near perfect collapse and virtual free fall.

I heard about Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth on Coast to Coast Am last night, and they presented the evidence for controlled demolition. I am now aware of it and believe it is the truth; it is obvious that it was controlled demolition. I want to know who was responsible and how they did it.

The advent of 9/11 and the tragedy surrounding the events are the singular greatest lie and fraud ever perpetuated. I recall working as a broker in the WTC in the mid 90's after the '93 bombing. The fact was already established after the bombing investigation that the buildings were originally built and inundated with asbestos protective coating, recognized as dangerous hazardous material even then. All the beam structures were coated in this covering and removal would have taken many years and billions($) in losses due to the closed buildings. The WTC towers and adjoining buildings were essentially condemned for the hazardous asbestos content, now killing the first responders (although squelched by the media). When I watched the buildings fall on 9/11, no mention was made of the dynamic stabilization dampers originally built as an afterthought on the upper levels of the building, consisting of concrete and steel and weighing 400,000lbs each. The force of these huge weights was essential to the planned and carefully controlled 'footprint' demolition. The 9/11 wives were paid for their silence and contractually obligated to never ask questions. Beverly Eckert, leader of the 9/11 wives group, publicly questioned the official report for its lies and inaccuracies, never took the pay-off. Eckert sued the government and consistently lobbied for a legitimate investigative commission. She died suspiciously in a very suspect plane crash, immediately after personally meeting with Obama and cabinet members and disclosing her plans to take her concerns and inside knowledge of the fraud to the public and the media.

Major holes in the official story: - - - - 1) Building collapse geometry and timing (Straight down near free fall speed. - - 2) WTC 7 collapse impossible within any conceivable natural disaster scenario. - - 3) Nano-Thermite - - 4) Imbeciles supposedly have the ability to flawlessly fly jet aircraft directly to their targets. - - - - My opinion is that the 9/11 investigators don't even believe their own report - otherwise why has their been NO call for a revision to the structural building codes? Supposedly there had been a major structural steel frame building collapse at near free fall speed due to very minor structural damage and fire only (WTC 7). If that was actually the case then at the very least the structural building codes should be reviewed and revised as needed. And then with that new code in hand every steel-frame high-rise building in the country should be evaluated with probably most of them requiring retrofitting and redesign. Do you see any of this activity? Wouldn't that be the responsible action to take if WTC 7 and the other buildings had actually failed as the official government story? - - - - The buildings were brought down - that's not a conspiracy theory, that's a fact.

I have 23 years experience as a mechanical engineer. I hold a BS in Civil Engineering and a AAS in HVAC design. I have worked as a consulting engineer, marine engineer, mechanical contractor, waste-water plant operator and building maintenance engineer. My educational background in civil engineering combined with my work experience, mainly in mechanical engineering, has given me a broad background in all aspects of engineering and construction.
I was working for a consulting engineer (Lizardos Engineering, Albertson, NY) at the time of the first bombing of the Towers in 1993. Two of our engineers were in the building at the time of the bombing. They returned to the office unharmed but certainly shaken up and covering in soot. I don't really think anyone needs to be an engineer or physicist to look at the footage and evidence from 9/11 and come up with many questions.The manner in which all three towers fell is not remotely consistent with the official explanation. The official explanation, in fact, is not even remotely consistent with the laws of physics!

It makes no sense that steel structures would collapse symmetrically into their own footprint at free fall speeds due to an airplane hit. In the case of Building 7, there is no apparent cause for collapse. Controlled demolition using thermite appears to be a much more likely explanation for the collapse of the WTC buildings.

Ever since we witnessed this terrible tragedy questions have been asked that, until now, had gone unanswered; questions such as 'how is it possible that a terrorist organization could have carried out such an attack against the most powerful and highly sophisticated country in the world without the help of an equally powerful and sophisticated organization?' and 'how is it possible that the Twin Towers and surrounding buildings collapsed the way they did out of a two plane strike?' Having witness many building collapses due to fire, earthquakes, bombings and controlled demolitions throughout our professional carriers we know these were staged controlled demolitions and now it has been proved. - - We have been slow to react mainly out of shock and disbelieve that we may be the victims of an internal attack from a home grown terrorist organization that believe themselves to the be the owners of the world. This has got to stop! It is up to us to stop it! If it can be done it is through our democratic process. We owe it to the future generations.

If one knows anything about structural engineering and has seen a number of controlled demolition videos, including charge placement, it is just plain obvious that WTC 7 is a controlled demolition. If a small lobby fire can bring down a steel frame structure so easily, no buildings are safe. But history tells us otherwise. That steel frame structured do not collapse because of fire. So the WTC collapses are either 1) controlled demolition or 2) 3 miracles (never to be repeated).

It is inconceivable that the World Trade Center buildings collapsed as they did because of fires as the public has been led to believe. This is not just an opinion, but a very well educated guess. Although I studied electrical engineering, Georgia Tech--as most engineering universities--required that I take courses in physics, statics, dynamics, thermodynamics.

The only steel framed skyscrapers to have ever collapsed as a result of a fire were WTC 1, 2, and 7. These buildings were built to withstand the impact of a fully loaded Boeing 707, an aircraft about the same size and weight as the aircraft that hit them on 9/11. Temperatures produced by the fires simply did not reach those required to have a significant impact on the building's structural integrity. Firemen 2 floors beneath the impact area in one building radioed out that the fire was controllable. Obviously he was not confronting a temperature of 2000 degrees only two stories above him. Pictures showed survivors of the impact standing in the hole made by the aircraft. These people wouldn't have been there under the kind of conditions assumed by the official story. Fireman recalled hearing a series of secondary explosions exactly like those that would have been used to cause a controlled demolition and that the collapses looked exactly like that's what happened. WTC 7 was hit by nothing and yet collapsed in the same way as the towers. Molten metal containing sulfur, indicating thermate, remained underneath all three buildings for weeks after 9/11. The structural steel debris was carted away as soon as possible without inspection. Taking pictures of ground zero or even stopping to look at it was made a criminal offense. The impact of the aircraft and the resulting fires could not possibly have caused the twin towers to collapse and saying that the collapse of WTC 7 was due to the impacts is simply absurd.Another thing we were lied to about was the cell phone calls. Cell phone calls at altitude were physically impossible.

For a while now, I've felt there was much more to the 9/11 story than what we've been told since the event. Watching the evidence from the video confirmed my suspicions. I feel that the folks who've put the video together have done a great job of shining a light of truth on the situation. In my opinion, this will usher in and strengthen the wave of conscious attention necessary to reveal the truth about what happened. I think the truth will hurt, but it will be monumentally important to the evolution of humanity.

On 9/11, I watched the towers collapse along with the rest of the world. At the time I could not believe that they collapsed by the mechanism as explained in the media. I was convinced, albeit without proof, that there had to be additional explosive media present to create such damage. As the proof of a governmental conspiracy has surfaced over the years I have become an advocate for 9/11 truth, speaking to anyone who will listen.

I read the 911 Commission Report to confirm what I had heard: that this report did not even mention the collapse of World Trade Center Tower #7. This is true. To me, this report seems very superficial. I question the official version for the reasons of the collapse of the 3 towers because of their symmetrical collapse from non-symmetrical damage and that tower 7 collapsed at all. Tower 7 was not impacted by a plane, had non-symmetrical fires burning, and collapsed some 7 hours later.

I am outraged that NIST has actively ignored first hand witness testimony verifying the existence of liquid iron at WTC. The NIST numerical model of the WTC7 collapse illustrates that their explanation of the cause of collapse does not match what actually happened. Symmetric vertical acceleration is not possible without uniform and simultaneous severing of all support columns.
