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 am a US Army veteran, FAA licensed airframe and power plant mechanic, and a licensed Texas professional engineer. I graduated Dartmouth College and Thayer School of Engineering. I left at the later stages of a masters of aeronautical and astronautical engineering degree from the University of Washington to start my career in the oil patch. I have working in the oil industry for 21 years. I am currently employed with Noble Drilling Services, a major offshore drilling contractor, as director of engineering for research and development.
I was shocked by 9/11. As an optimist I gave the official story the benefit of the doubt. I am not a believer in conspiracies but your documentary gave me pause. If there is a hint of impropriety in the official story, then it is likely to only be the tip of the iceberg. I hope to god it is wrong, but in my profession, hope doesn't cut it. I need to see evidence that makes sense. The NIST backtracking and weak arguments don't reassure me; as an engineer, I understand the issues raised. Also, in my industry, an objective third party review is always used. I would expect the same from our government.

I hold Bachelors degrees in Math and Physics, and the first degree ever awarded in Nanotechnology. I worked in software design and development, beginning at Texas Instruments and ending with several years of independent consulting. I now teach Math at Navarro College.
In a way, I do not see the need for another government-funded investigation. The independently conducted research has more than adequately demonstrated that the WTC was brought down by controlled demolition. However, a formal, government recognized, investigation will add weight to the conclusions, and can begin the process of demanding accountability.

There are too many unanswered questions about 9/11 in order to believe the official version of events. A more thorough investigation is needed to arrive at a more accurate assessment. There is not enough energy contained in jet fuel to explain the total collapse and destruction of the central core. The molten steel found in the basements of the towers needs to be explained scientifically. The collapse of WTC 7 is also very suspicious.

Since small I have been witness to a sizeable amount of high rise building demolitions and how other buildings succumb to natural disasters that have caused them to topple over. It was weird for me to make sense of the way all three buildings fell in contrast to what had just happened. When I did a logical analysis of the different points of view and data that all sources have cited and used in their defense,the most logical and rational conclusion is the one given by the experts.

I am a relatively affluent young adult raised in California, and am well educated in the sciences, particularly physics, which I took an interest in throughout my high school and college education.
Free fall speeds of collapse are the most glaring inconsistency between understood and accepted scientific theory and the official explanation put forth by government agencies. Evidence of explosive compounds and molten steel (both before the collapse in the debris) are pieces of evidence in direct conflict with official government statements, and demand for a new investigation to be opened. Other notable pieces of evidence for me include: explosive forces necessary for the recorded horizontal ejections of multi-ton structures, pyroclastic flows that melted paint on cars near ground zero which look unlike concrete dust from any other high-rise destruction, eyewitness testimonies that describe explosions immediately before and during the collapses, appearance of core column failure preceding rapid onset collapse, and extreme denial of basic utilization of the scientific method in the official government investigations.

I don't believe in the official statement of what happened and I am suspicious of the US-American government, which also frightens me as it is hard to believe so many people would be killed for the gain in political/economical profit. The Swiss historian Daniele Ganser gives a very interesting theory of today's world's system, which made me more critical towards the USA especially big political associations.

I am a former secondary school teacher of English, History and English language and am currently working as a law clerk while studying law at the University of Technology Sydney. I have a passion for social justice, truth and the welfare of the environment.
I have decided to sign this petition because I believe passionately in truth and procedural fairness. Without truth, a nation's people cannot meaningfully place their trust in their government and in the legal system and this lack of trust ultimately contributes to the deterioration of civil participation in citizenship and even of respect for human rights. It is critical for historical and social justice that the truth of what happened at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 be rigorously examined and, if other than what has previously been purported, exposed for what it really was. The science of this event is strongly against the conventional 9/11 account of events purported by the mainstream media, and with repeated demonstration of otherwise by engineers, the public deserves to know that truth even if it is a heinous one.

Just an average citizen who continually sees more and more evidence that our government is doing its best to keep the wool pulled over the eyes of Americans, and abuses governmental power to further and enrich themselves, at the cost of the American people.
There is too much evidence against the official report regarding 9/11. The official story published by our government is not the truth (based upon so much contradicting evidence), and the fact that our government has tried so hard to prevent new investigations further shows that they know their story is not the truth.

The symmetrical collapse of all three towers, the free fall rate of speed for building 7, the nanothermite composites and iron microspheres found in the dust samples, the claim of one failed column causing building 7 to collapse, and the recycling of building 7 in China, are just a few examples of why there are gaping holes and unanswered questions regarding the events surrounding 9/11. These are valid questions, and a new investigation is strongly encouraged. As I type this, additional Engineers and Designers at my firm are watching this documentary, and the demand for a new investigation will soon be too strong to ignore.

I am interested in the profession to be an architect. I learned some basic knowledge about chemistry, physics and history which all helped me to build up a critical consideration about the news. When I first learned about some deeper facts and started to research I just couldn't imagine how the majority of all people all over the world just believe the official story. Even if some theories are wrong the official story can't be right.

Everything about the destruction is completely bogus. The buildings were designed withstand a crash from an airplane, so how did it happen that both failed, and collapse? Also, many steel structures have burned for much longer time periods, and never collapsed. The building could also never fall perfectly straight down from a side impact. Its simple physics, and I just want to get the right information to the general public. Our own government organized 9/11 for war profiteering, and the truth needs to come out.

The key evidence provided by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth alone proves that the given story about 9/11 is false, and the very fact that key evidence (testimonies of molten metal) were ignored point out that the investigation is severely flawed.

Currently finishing up my junior year of college. Studying Mechanical Engineering. Interests include automotive, materials science and control systems.
I am very skeptical that a tower would collapse like that from burning jet fuel alone. The world trade center was a very structurally sound design. I would like to see (or even perform myself) a macro scale structural finite element analysis, with the entire potential energy of the aircraft applied in the most destructive way possible. I seriously doubt it would fail the way we all saw on 9/11. Also, thermal modelling could explain the molten steel witnessed at ground zero.

It has to be a controlled explosion/demolition, because there is no possible way that the Towers would have come down by themselves. Also how did media outlets know that WTC Tower 7 was destroyed when it was still standing?

I have spent an extensive amount of time investigating the events of 9-11. After educating myself about what actually happened and realizing the fraud that was being perpetrated I began reaching out to others about what I had learned. Many people are not open to considering the conspiracy but there have been several whose eyes have been opened to it.
I am certain there was foul play and the whole story is not being told. This appears to be a large conspiracy that deserves further investigation. The families of the victims deserve to know the truth and justice should be served.
