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'm an aerospace engineer. This isn't just a conspiracy theory. The engineering of how WTC 7 fell is absolutely impossible. When I say absolutely I mean the numbers are 1 in a trillion likely. This is the only steel building to ever fall from fire alone in the history of humanity and that's because it wasn't really only fire. It had 26 columns. The fire would have had to melt all 26 columns within a second of each other in order to create the engineering situation that takes the building to the ground at the speed of freefall gravity meaning no resistance from the support beams while falling. This is not a conspiracy theory.....it is scientific fact. Who did it and why we may never know.... it was absolutely without a doubt brought down by demolition at 5 o'clock pm on 9/11.

The existing quantifiable evidence and obvious betrayal of high-school level physics notwithstanding; the mere fact that so many professionals in their respective fields are of the opinion that the three WTC towers could not possibly have collapsed in the fashion portrayed by NIST, should easily be motivation enough to prompt any government to demand a more thorough and satisfactory investigation from its own, trusted professionals. To think that the public at large and elected government can ignore the very people they trust with the construction of their homes, supermarkets, offices, schools, hospitals, bars, gymnasiums etc, and label them conspiracy theorist is nothing short of baffling and deeply disturbing.

My education includes a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Colorado (1953), M.S. in Irrigation Engineering from Colorado State University (1955), and Ph.D. in Agricultural and Irrigation Engineering from Utah State University (1967). I am still professionally active and my career has been split between academia (teaching, research, and extension) and private consulting and focused on irrigation engineering activities related to water resource development and management.
Without any serious study I had simply accepted that the events of 9/11 were as commonly perceived, although I was not happy with the way the disaster was being used to promote what I felt were illegal and self defeating imperialistic policies in the guise of the War on Terrorism. It was not until early 2006 that I stumbled upon sufficient information to become suspicious of the official and generally accepted 9/11 storyline. This led me to do my own investigation during which I discovered the demise of WTC 7, which I was heretofore unaware of. Obviously it was the result of controlled demolition and scheduled to take place during the confusion surrounding the day's events. I now feel morally obligated to deal with and expose the politically unthinkable issues surrounding the 9/11 phenomena by participating in such undertakings as signing this petition.

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.

None of the events on 9/11 could have happened the way we were told they did. In the 40s a b-25 bomber crashed into the empire state building and did only local damage. The debris from the Twin Towers was rushed off and guarded.

First investigation did not answer questions sufficiently. There are too many questions that remain unanswered to this day, ie. Why did the BBC announce that WTC 7 was falling 20 minutes before it fell? This had NOTHING to do with time difference between the two countries. Why was NORAD told to stand down? Why were certain people told not to fly that day?

I'm an Educated person with a sound mind that can understand the facts about 9/11. I feel with all my heart and soul looking at the evidence, that the official story has a lot of contradictions! It's either one way or the other.....we can't have It both ways!
Building 7 I think the smoking gun for conspiracy the way It came down! All the witness testimony's around the building's heard and gave statement that they heard loud explosion's that they believe were bombs located in the buildings. Rodriquez gave testimony that he heard a loud explosion in the basement seconds before the plane hit on the top!

anyone that looks at the collapse of these buildings with an open mind can come to no other conclusion except that these buildings were brought down using controlled explosives. When building 7 fell, it was the 3rd steel framed building ever to collapse due to fire, the other two, were WTC 1 and WTC 2. We need an independent investigation, WITH SUBPOENA POWERS, and we need it now.

I am an industrial Designer and have spent the last 10 years working with various building materials and construction methods. building various models and prototypes.
I have reviewed every shred of evidence I can find for both theories. I can promise you that if we could build one of the twin towers and crash a plane into there is no way there it would have total collapse in the fashion that the twin towers did even if we could it wouldn't have recreated the total collapse with a 1,000,000 attempts. I still don't think anyone has been given a valid reason for the violent and complete and total structural collapse.

A concerned citizen who believes that 9/11 was a setup to create the Department of Homeland Security which watches over Americans and tries to limit their civil liberties. It also helped advance the military-industrial complex while allowing the government to take control of Middle Eastern oil.I believe the collapses were designed to fall based on demolition. The towers were made to withstand airplane hits due to their height. Also WTC Building 7 looks like it was definitely destroyed by demolition. There is a report where it's mentioned to fall but it's still standing.

I am a 1980 graduate of Auburn University school of Veterinary Medicine. I was graduated with high honors and have owned my own practice since 1984.
Even as one not trained in architecture or engineering, it is fairly self evident that a building that collapsed due to being struck by a large object ( airplane ) then subsequently collapsing in such a perfect fashion would be a near impossibility . In addition, it is my understanding that the building supervisor had stated that these buildings were slated for demolition and that this statement has never been recanted.

I have been in the construction industry as an electrician for 14 years. After watching 'Blueprint for Truth' on YouTube and my own experience, I KNOW there is something being hidden by our 'government'.
Jet fuel would never burn hot enough to create the molten metal shown on several videos. Any building that falls at free fall speed, with evidence of concrete vaporization, and no pancaking of floors was obviously demolished. The everyday 'Joe Q. Public' lacks basic problem solving skills and common sense to see the obvious. They are very happy to watch TV news and eat up every word...

i am a former teacher and retired legal secretary. I do not for one moment believe the official story of what happened on 9-11 and want America to become the democracy it was supposed to be.
It is OBVIOUS that the collapse was achieved by a series of detonations, and did NOT result from the buildings being hit by a plane, with the exception of the Pentagon which was clearly hit by a missile--not a plane. I want to know who ordered this and who carried it out, for what reason, as well as the reason the American people were deliberately deceived about it and have even now been denied a legitimate investigation of what happened, who was involved, and what their motives were for murdering all of these people and blaming their deaths on others...

No engineering or architectural background, just a well-informed and concerned citizen.
There is far too much information available that raises many grave questions about the truth of what transpired on 9/11/01 in New York City. That most of that vital information should be ignored by the 911 Commission should alert one to the veils of deception which surround these events and the overwhelming stench of cover-up. The data that has been released by Dr. Steven Jones and others by means of scientifically sound research deserves to be considered by a body of individuals who hold the power of prosecution. Also, the education of the American people as to these scientific findings is crucial to the survival of any semblance of a government of the People, by the People, and for the People.
