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.

To me it has been obvious that controlled demolition and not plane crashes & fire were the causes of the WTC collapses since I saw the first TV reports on 9/11, 2001. The blatantly dishonest official story, the cover up and media efforts to hide the obvious are frankly very scary to me. A new and thorough investigation is absolutely needed, but it must be conducted by those outside the influence of the perpetrators. Perhaps this new investigation is a task for a foreign government, possibly Canada, or the UN.

It's not a question about truth because it is so obvious for anybody making use of his brain - it's a question of how to gain a victory over ignorance and mainstream manipulation. But history is proofing: time is always supporting truth. And since introduction of the internet there is no excuse anymore for any sheep. The official building collapse myth can already be debunked using school knowledge about physics: The sum of energy in a system always stays constant as well as the product of mass and speed of 2 colliding units.

Given an even basic understanding of high school physics, it's painfully obvious that high rises do not suddenly pulverise mid-air; fire-protected structural steel will not melt when exposed briefly to a pool of burning jet fuel; and virtually undamaged office buildings built to code simply cannot collapse symmetrically at near-free fall speed due to a few limited fires. Clearly, the 9/11 tragedy was not a physics-defying Hollywood blockbuster, despite what the official narrative desperately would like us to believe. It was a real-world event, with real people perishing, and with untold suffering and damage as a direct consequence. We owe it to the victims of that fateful day to expose the nonsensical reasoning (or lack of reasoning) that makes up the bulk of the NIST 'investigation' -- we would merely have to let the evidence and the laws of nature speak for themselves, that's all.

I was RME for the hazardous waste contractor's license 1991 and we supervised HazMat operations on controlled demolition of seven grain silos on banks of Mississippi river to keep asbestos out of the river.
I have viewed every video, photograph etc I could access; many of them several times. I cannot believe that airplane crashes and open fires resulted in the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7. My reasoning is based on the undeniable appearance of any number of squibs, the vertical collapses, the pulverization of structure and building contents, impossible to achieve via structural failure, the speed of the collapse, the production of and weeks-long persistence of molten steel impossible to produce in an open burn, the inexplicable failure of the core columns and of the welded and bolted two way floor trusses,The failure of the steel frame core trusses. the total failure of fire protection (My partner in MMG was Ret. Navy Commander William Scott, PE, former president of national Asbestos Association, I believe until 1989 or 90) the pyroclastic discharge, the photos of heat-cut stubs of massive columns with molten metal running down them, some steel members perfectly distorted into semi-circles, the multi ton steel beams and column pieces stuck into nearby buildings, performance of the tower in the 1975 fire, the statements of any number of highly credible engineers and physicists, the statements of credible eye witnesses including many public safety personnel, the rush to remove evidence, the lack of any real investigation, the 911 commission report... i believe that any one of these things would indicate a need for unbiased investigation to ascertain the truth of the matter. I don't know the truth of the matter, but I strongly support an in depth investigation. Thank you.

I believe the government was alerted of the plan to attack the towers and did everything they could to ensure it would succeed far beyond the hopes of Bin Laden. I remember seeing an interview with Bin Laden, may have been BBC, where one of the party was asked, upon exiting the cave, Are you concerned about how the Americans are going to react? His reply was, T he Americans are easy, kill a few of them and they want to go home. We could fly large aircraft into their tall buildings. That interview took place some months before 9/11. Every war has been a setup.

I am virtually self taught as my education was interrupted by events after WW2. Books I had completed when I was 8 years old in India were dished up to me in Australia when I was 12 even though I was the youngest in class. I left at 14 and studied Ballet full time for a year before leaving for England. At 15 I was accepted into RADA [Royal Academy of Dramatic Art] London. Having finished the 2 year course, as it was then I was disillusioned with the theatre as I preferred the classics to kitchen sink dramas. As History was one of my best subjects and I was finding far too many flaws and lies I studied on my own in the reading room of the British Museum London. Here I could read Newton's works, Josephus and other great writers and come to my own conclusions which were opposite to what I had been taught. Although I would have liked to become an archaeologist I did not have the means. It was during this time I met my first husband and for far too many years had to devote myself to bringing up children. I 'woke' up again when I heard William Blum being interviewed on the ABC radio. I wrote down his name and finally bought my first book on the internet. He re-opened my eyes and I was horrified to know what had been going on for so many, many years. I subsequently read Edward Galiano's 'Open Veins of Latin America', and boy did I become enlightened then and no longer believed what I was being told. Although both these books have influenced me greatly I have read and seen so many truthful documentaries, many by John Pilger that made me what I am today. I am presently researching the Unsung Women Of History for U3A where I give courses on women who have virtually been either written out of history or simply overlooked. I am 76 years old and still learning.
It was the Frenchman who produced a documentary about the small penetration by the 'plane' 'which supposedly attacked the Pentagon that made me suspicious. Then my daughter's friend, who was in the SAS [Special Air Services] said he saw the second plane hit the second tower and it had no windows, so he knew it was a military plane. Then in 2008 I saw a documentary in Chile that told it as it was. The collapses and the squibs coming out. The 'hole' in Shanksville with witnesses saying there were no bodies and the only plane flew over and threw some heavy equipment out of the hold. However the FBI were already there walking around as if they were expecting it. When I returned to Australia I went onto the internet and among my discoveries was the impending visit of Richard Gage to Brisbane. I attended the meeting and was 100% convinced 911 was an inside job. Building 7 is the 'Smoking Gun'. Now like Pilger I believe nothing I am told! I do my own research.

I really do believe that getting your organization's explanation of the buildings' engineering facts, which provide the most excellent explanation that I am aware of of the un-likelihood that the collapse of the buildings could have been caused by fire as stated in the official report --- getting this info out far & wide is important, because it is among the most compelling reasoning's available today on the need to conduct a new, independent and credible investigation.

It is too hard for me to believe that three buildings fell straight down in New York City; Building number 7 was not even hit. We should have civilian's as part of the investigative panel. What country did we turn into that we can't investigate the murder of 3000 of our fellow Americans?

I am a recently retired San Francisco City clerical worker with only three years of formal college education, but consider myself self-educated and a good critical thinker with basic common sense.
After seeing the lecture and video by Richard Gage on the ae911Truth.org website , I don't think any reasonable, rational person could come away without the conviction that all three World Trade Center buildings were brought down by controlled demolition on September 11, 2001, and that it had to be an inside job. For me, the most important thing is for these facts to be broadly exposed so that the American people and the people of the world will force an end to the never-ending war on terrorism. Thank you for your good work, Richard Gage!

there is now way in the world that these three buildings could fall at almost free fall speed without and type of demolition assistance. lets be reasonable the path of most resistance is straight down! and how is there parts of the building shoot out laterally int other buildings and stuck in the face of those other buildings without demolition style assistance. get it together people....9-11 truth NOW!!!

I'm an American with no criminal record like most Americans. A skyscraper collapsing not once but twice in an identical manner is a controlled demolition.
Alistair Cook called the commercial airliners slamming into the World Trade Center buildings a declaration of war. The total collapse of the US security services on that day along with the buildings collapsing so perfectly into their own footprint speaks of a controlled demolition. It makes no proper sense. Something like that can only be subversive. Unless there is an explanation to prove otherwise. Also, what American will deny a gut reaction to witnessing that stunt being broadcast in real time?
