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.

Experienced in almost every type of welding, 35 yrs in business.

When I watched the news and watched the buildings fall, I turned to my wife and said "that was an implosion." We do work on high rises and are very aware of how well those beams are protected. Also, there is not enough heat produced by burning jet fuel to cause any kind of steel failure. Some sag maybe but that would be the extent of it. No building collapses into it's own footprint without demolition.

Since graduating college in 1982, I have worked in the structural engineering field. In 2000, I started my own consulting business as a structural engineer. I have experience with wood, concrete, and steel design as well as some forensic experience investigating collapses of structures. I also have experience as a paid on call fire/rescue worker.
I've done extensive research online, and of videos, and have concluded that at the very least, building #7 was 100% a controlled demolition. Although there are literally hundreds of discrepancies, and unexplained things surrounding 9/11, I consider the collapse of building #7, and the fact that Controlled Demolition (the Company) was hired for site clean-up to be an unexplainable coincidence. The fact that we spent much less than the investigation of Flight 800 is also questionable. The destruction of the crime scene evidence is inexcusable. I did not witness any raging infernos that the media claims existed on 9/11.

I have a Bachelors of Applied Science in civil engineering. I am an intelligent person with a solid educational foundation in the physical sciences.
The nature of the buildings' collapses alone raises so many questions from the perspective of scientific plausibility that I believe it justifies another better, sensible and comprehensive examination of how precisely the towers collapsed. Add to that additional doubts about so many other aspects of the 9/11 official narrative (from whether the President saw the first tower hit on TV to how terrorists could take such advantage of the surfeit of war games on that day), and I think there's no doubt we're in need of serious inquiry.

"Building 2, the second building hit and the first to ""collapse"" was hit two thirds of the way up. It breaks off at the impact point and a photo shows it leaning over at 20 degrees. The pile driver effect is gone at that point. The top third of the building is no longer pressing down on the bottom two thirds. No load = no buckling. Imagine a tree in the woods being struck by lightning two thirds of the way up. The top third breaks off and falls over. Then, starting at the top of the remaining ""stump"" which is two thirds the height of the original tree, a wave of destruction starts and goes down at near freefall, spewing out wood chips and sawdust. Where did all this this energy come from?"

I don't believe that the three buildings came down as a result of fires. They were steel buildings, and, from what I have read, jet fuel does not burn hot enough to burn steel. Also, the free-fall of the buildings appear to be that of a controlled demolition, not due to fires. The buildings came down so fast, and without stopping at each floor level, which doesn't seem possible, unless the columns were pulled out, as would have been done to start a controlled demolition.

The SUM of evidence concerning ALL events taking place on 9/11 is overwhelming in itself. When you add the different incidents leading up to the attacks, and of course the clear political/economic agenda following the attacks, the picture becomes almost frustrating clear. Following the money-trace to see who profits on this, just makes you wanna cry. You don`t need to be an architect or engineer to see that something is not right about how the towers came down: The speed of the collapse, the lack of resistance in the rest of the structure, the identical collapse of the towers, the symmetry and the dust. All these things for me suggests explosives. WTC7 is just an obvious demolition, as clear as it gets... A new independent investigation is an extremely modest demand.

Also the duty which comes with being an American citizen to diligently safeguard the ideals of the constitution of the united states and the bill of rights.
On that fateful day as I watched the live coverage and witnessed the collapse of the buildings I knew in my gut that something was wrong. What I was seeing did not appear to be the result of aircraft impacting with the towers and the resultant fires. Over the years previous I had seen dozens of building demolitions televised, mostly as news items and the pattern of destruction is always the same. Such were the collapses of the towers, carbon copy engineered implosion demolitions. I believe the buildings were precharged with demolition explosives and professionally and deliberately brought down on cue. I knew immediately as I watched this live that I was witnessing implosion demolitions and have never held any other possibility as plausible.

From the very start, 9-11-2001, there were strange things that I saw on the Internet, mostly the eye-witness testimony of people at the scene. Fortunately, there have been courageous people who have not rested from the task of compiling video and recordings of the events and the personal testimony, as well as collecting physical samples of the debris. There have been professionals who have refrained from speaking out because that would put their careers at risk. Fortunately, some have the fortitude to speak out anyway. The truth should not be a deterrent in a free country!!!!!

I was in Mexico when I saw the towers collapsing and I think that the airplane crash did not make them collapse. It always seems to me that it was like a demolition. May the truth be exposed.

I was a blue collar worker that went to college for the first time in 1991...and finished 5 years of intense science , medicine and many other classes that caused me to understand there was a bigger picture to our country that I hadn't understood before. I lost my son do to an IED in Afghanistan Feb 20, 2009. His name was SSgt Timothy P. Davis USAF CCT. I question why we were there and why his wife is now a widow and his 19th month son will never know him.
There seems to be something wrong here and it won't take very long for patriots of our country and savey individuals to figure out the truth. The internet and science will figure it out and broadcast it soon. Those that are responsible will be tracked down and held accountable to the laws of our country...Confidence is the feeling you have JUST before you know better. If those who pretend to have confidence that were apart of this are out there, know this ...your time is short. I don't have confidence ..I know!!!

It's Tower 7 for me that really takes the biscuit. Affirming what we already see in Towers 1 and 2 but this time a good distance away from the main impact zone high-lighting clearly, to me at least, the use of controlled demolition. I can't see how it would have been possible for the debris to start fires so intense they would cause a building not even immediately next door to crumble into itself the way we have seen.

The way the buildings collapsed is in my opionion just not possible - from a physical point of view - if not explosives were be used to destroy the construction before. The resistance of the not damaged parts of the buildings, e.g. of the whole building WTC 7, would not have led to an almost free-fall-speed collapse. There is a lot of evidence out there and it`s a shame that no one asks for answers! Especially why the melten steel that is reported by so many and can be seen at so many places isn`t even mentioned in the offical story !

I've seen too many controlled Demolitions to believe that the destruction of the buildings was caused by any fire on the upper floors. Also the many reports of explosions on the ground and lower levels of the buildings by other workers. The theory put out by the Gov. is full of holes. How dumb do they think we the people are??

There's nothing I can say that hasn't already been said, but anyone with half a brain can recognize that two massive buildings can't collapse in less than 10 seconds due to overheated steel. It's impossible for them to be completely demolished without falling outward instead of straight down.

Been researching 9/11 for several years now. Mr. Gage presents the most credible scientific analysis of the three collapses that day and I support the work he is doing 110%. One day I believe Mr. Gage will be regarded as an American hero, a true patriot, the true embodiment of what America stands for. Reason above myth. Proof above hearsay. The reason the first amendment was created was for people like Richard Gage. I was proud to have helped bring him to Montreal to give a lecture and we would have him back at the first opportunity. My mother was only convinced of the validity of 9/11 truth after seeing Richard Gage speak.
100 ton beams were ejected laterally 500 feet. How? What force acted upon those 100 ton beams to hurl them 500 feet? Gravity? The top section falling? Impossible. And this is just one of dozens of questions regarding the collapses of the buildings. Jane Stanley? Elevator upgrade? Human bodies turned into 200 pieces? Longest commercial fire in history (99 days.) 444 days to open an investigation (longest ever.) The list could go on for hours.

It is obvious that building 7 collapsed by forces other than the World Trade Towers collapse. This makes the WTC controlled collapse even more suspicious.

As a NON-expert in the field of Physics, Architecture OR demolition, I found it VERY odd that the buildings came down in the 'clean' manner that they did that day. I had no idea until recently there was SO much support *against* the commission - good to see. Furthermore, my own personal investigation, has led me to delve even deeper into the reasons WHY this happened, not just How/THAT it happened.
