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 could never see how any high-rise structure, especially the WTC, could fall apart and downward so symmetrically without its structural connecting points having been strategically blown out at timed intervals. I was initially stunned and just dumbfounded after seeing them come down in 2001 but had an uneasy feeling about the explanations given for this terrible event. I am glad to see architects and engineers coming together to lend their expertise towards finding a more rational explanation than what was provided.

I have a Master's degree (German 'Diplom') in Materials Science and Technology and can therefore relate very well to the vindicated doubts many people have about the official 9/11 story.
I studied and learned lots about materials' properties, how they behave, what stresses and temperatures they can resist, etc. I also know about the laws of physics, as well as the mechanics of materials and structures. No building can just fall to the ground at the speed of fall, nor can megatons of steel and concrete just be turned into dust WITHOUT the help of explosives!

You can either believe the official government conspiracy theory (which most people do since that is what the media tells them) or you can believe the scientific explanation of why the 3 buildings collapsed. The collapse of Building 7 in 6 seconds (not hit by an airplane) means the building had to be brought down by controlled demolition. This is thoroughly corroborated by eyewitness reports from reporters, firefighters, police officers, etc. that frequent bomb explosions were heard by those in or near the buildings.

We deserve the truth about what happened on 9/11. It shocked and shaped every single one of us that witnessed the wanton destruction.There has always been a serious doubt in my mind about the veracity of the claims that this was caused by unskilled pilots. Once I saw the evidence of the destruction of the buildings (and particularly WTC 7) I became convinced that we were not being told the truth.

BSCE, while I don't work in Structures I've had enough physics, mechanics, thermo and design classes to know when the explanation does not match the facts.
The published official explanation does not match the facts. I do not know what happened on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, but I know what didn't happen. Two planes cannot bring down two buildings, much less three.

Have accumulated 30 years of experience as a business systems analysis professional and developer for a range of companies in the Oil & Gas sectors, Environmental & Retail.
I'm grateful to AE911 truth for upholding the principles of evidence based science that are consistent with those I encountered during my early undergraduate studies and training. Their questions are my questions and I believe that the institutional ethic is undermined by its implicit endorsement of the destruction of valuable data sets, its dismissal of independent inquiry and its bad faith deployment of institutionalised science to subvert the scientific method. The negligence of a single professional, be they medical, scientific or otherwise can result in a custodial sentence. The negligence of a generation of professionals may result in the loss of faith in evidence-based engineering as a tool for good. As such I feel that AE911Truth better represent me in what I was trained to be 'science' than the institutions do at present. I trust this situation will resolve itself eventually to the benefit of all as it always does, hence my membership.

this requirement for a bio is confusing to me as I am not a professional by any stretch of the imagination, so possibly I have checked some box in error I am attempting to fill this so that my petition goes through. for those of you who have to fact check/correct these things my apologies. I am a 39 year old American Female who has no criminal record to speak of and who has always been drug and alcohol free. I do not subscribe to a religion but I am actively concerned with the evolution of the human race on a spiritual / consciousness beat. I work in retail and try to participate in community projects as often as possible to do my part in making my town (and consequently the world) a better place.
I am an American who feels that the due diligence that this event required was not honored. I do not pretend to be an expert on anything, but my knowledge of politics and bureaucracy tells me that a tendency to gloss over difficult things for the benefit of unifying public opinion is par for the course and I did not witness much if any hesitation on the part of the government (or media for that matter) to address things simplistically, instead of in a non emotional non reactionary way, as is their duty. History shows that governments who give quick swift answers to difficult and messy situations = inaccuracy/incompetency and possibly worse.

I work in inspecting the erection of equipment used in the water treatment field.
It is obvious that the buildings didn't collapse from structural damaged due to the airplane impacts and fire. The fire from the fuel was quickly burned up and the heat from the fire would not be sufficient to melt steel. The pulverized cement, termite evidence, molten steel, and eyewitness testimony of explosions is proof of controlled demolition.

I want to know the truth! My Father was very devastated by the collapses and I would like to know what really happened. I have researched some of the theories on what happened and I think we need to have the truth. I am tired of cover ups in this case. There HAS to be more to the story.

I did engineering and physics at school - i did a project on september 11 in 2006 and it didn't make sense - how the buildings could fall - without some sort of explosives.
I think there needs to be thorough unbiased investigation - no money - just truth.

As I watched the twin towers collapse -- there was no question in my mind -- that I was witnessing a controlled demolition. I have been around buildings long enough to recognize that physics is constant and that only professionally placed explosives could have brought down these buildings in such a 'organized' manner.

I do not have any training in or knowledge of architecture or engineering. I am not affiliated with any organizations.
I know that what happened in New York on September 11th, 2001 was a carefully orchestrated conspiracy. I know most of the so-called proof is just blown out of proportion, but the kind of evidence advocated by this website is real. The degree of destruction that the Twin Towers suffered can not be explained by anything but the use of explosives. If our government denies the truth that they surely must see, then let that be the only proof that you need to understand. The USG will not stop using any and all means to hide truth and perpetuate lies, as the preservation of American beliefs has been lost already. I'm not saying politicians placed explosives themselves, but I will say anybody who helps those responsible avoid their justice is clearly an accomplice at best. However, the many conversations in which our politicians refuse to speak when confronted by the truth greatly deters the use of evidence and truth. These efforts clearly imply some kind of personal involvement.

It is impossible that all three buildings fell in the manner in which they did based on the reasons stated in the 911 Commission's Report. There is also new evidence of thermite found in the WTC dust. Anyone with even the most average of intelligence knows that there is something very wrong with the official 911 Commission's Report. There needs to be an independent investigation ASAP.

Member of We Are Change Chicago. I have read every thing I can find regarding the official story and the finding of independent groups like 911 truth, A&E for 911 truth etc... I feel a new investigation is needed.
it is plain to even the most uninformed that a new investigation is needed to get to the bottom of the concerns about the 911 horror. Please we the people ask you in Congress, open a new and independent investigation and shine the truth on this horrible day in our history. We need the truth from Washington just once.

After studying, admittedly outside my field, evidence of the fall of the towers. It has become more than obvious that it was because of charges placed inside the building.

I work as a tradesman,i have no building degrees but I have eyes to see and ears to hear, and 911 was a staged act of terror.
I have been researching 911 since I heard that it was staged. I'm just a tradesman but you would have to be blind not to be convinced it was an inside job after seeing Building #7 of the WTC come down in its own footprint. For what my word is worth, I stand for truth and with patriots around the world for another investigation into the 911 WTC incident.
