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.

Two planes reduce 267 floors to dust? Two planes three buildings? No sprinkler, standpipe? Try to demolish a single concrete/steel floor, we have, at times an entire floor is jammed up by a single bx cable, 2x4, piece of steel angle iron, so 267 floors fall and not one gets hung up? Not one falls at a 15 degree pitch, not one?

Own and operate small engineering firm specializing in structural engineering for over 12 years. Have a Master of Science degree in Civil Engineering from Washington State University with an emphasis in structures. I have a very good understanding of how buildings are constructed and how they behave under the influence of outside forces. Most buildings are constructed with redundancies so that they don't collapse catastrophically.
It is virtually impossible for WTC building 7 to collapse as it did with the influence of sporadic fires. This collapse HAD to be planned. For the twin towers, it seems odd that both buildings came down the exact same way. Also, someone made a comment the buildings were designed to implode downward. For me more information is needed here because I don't design high rise structures but it would seem odd that engineers would design in a buildings destruction. That's why explosives are used.

The near perfect free fall seen in all of the public videos and live TV coverage I've watched since the event occurred, can be fully explained only by analysis of a controlled demolition using thermite. The cover-up by the US government seriously damaged the trust of American citizens but also is a security risk to us as now other countries realize the US does NOT stand up for truth and justice. The WORLD deserves the TRUTH....NOW!

I watched the video ''AE911 Experts Speak out'' and from the arguments presented I strongly believe the disaster must have been caused by explosives, ''controlled demolition''. At the very least the covering of evidence and most likely erroneous report from NIST, in addition with the controversy in scientific reports between NIST and AE911 experts calls for an immediate proper investigation of the matter for fear it might repeat itself and for justice of the victims and their families.

Ever since I first saw the failure, I felt something was wrong. The pancaking of the slabs as they fell struck me as the kind of failure one might see in a concrete structure building with the columns acting as shear punches at each respective failure. I was amazed when I was informed it was a steel building. Since then, I have learned of the mode of failure of WTC 7 and the temperature of burning jet fuel vs. resistance of steel to such temperatures. Something is just not right.

I am still shocked by the large number of victims from the 9/11 attacks, and I want know the truth. If we can't identify the perpetrators now, justice will eventually find them. In my country in the 1980s, terrorism did much damage; thousands of attacks left 70,000 victims. Part of it was also state-sponsored terrorism.

Could 2 planes cause 3 steel framed skyscrapers to collapse at nearly free fall speed, one of them into its own footprint? I think not.

I am not an architect nor engineer. I have nine years of university and college education in business, computer sciences and social services/health care. I worked for the Airlines for ten years; three years in the Control Center in Atlanta. One of my jobs was to aid the FAA in preparation for possible emergencies from in range calls that might involve jet fuel needing to be contained. We might have dispatched two to three fire trucks and foamed the runway... but I never witnessed even a small aircraft being CONSUMED by its own jet fuel, much less overcome the foam or the emergency vehicles by the jet fuel fire.
On day one, the first comment I made to family was when building number seven came down, looking exactly like a demolition... how did that incredibly powerful jet fuel get into building number seven, making that fire hot enough to create that PERFECT demolition? How does a fire, hot enough to disintegrate planes and turn buildings into molten metal, not burn passports? How does a fire in the upper floors of a building cause explosions in the basement (testimony of fire rescue professionals on tape) and melt the support beams of the lower floors.

I am a concerned citizen, patriot, and American who is outraged by the possession of the American mind perpetuated by the fascist capitalists run-amuck. The human mind demands freedom, instinctively. If it is caged then it is broken.
The only explanation for a free-fall symmetrical collapse in structural architecture is the absence of resistance.

I am a 54 year old female living in Oklahoma. I have researched the events surround 9/11 and am frustrated that there hasn't been a full, independent investigation.
I too have doubts about the official story of the collapse of the buildings. Following the 9/11 Truth organizations has made me move convinced that we need to know the truth about September 11, 2001. There are too many unanswered questions, and too many professional people with excellent credentials that question the ability of the buildings to collapse due to heat from the jet fuel. My, simple, logical mind tells me the buildings were demolished with explosives.

I am 'tude vox Ro, a voice with attitude from Metro Detroit. Rather than recoil in fear and humiliation for lack of paid employment, I use every resource available to find out why and spread the word. I've realized that the fraud of 9/11 is an arrogant display of intentional manipulation of social opinion, allowing for brutal demonstrations of violence and control in a Matrix of deception. Only an awakened, unified mass can reverse the power structure back to the people.
There was domestic involvement in 9/11. I knew this to be true the moment I heard the news.

I am an artist, and understand geometry. I have done some interior design and can see space utilization. I also studied physics and calculus in college and now I am achieving a degree in health care administration. I have enough intelligence and knowledge to question along with these architects and contractors, what really caused the explosion of the World Trade Towers on 9/11.
I question the released facts of the occurrences on 9/11 regarding the falling of the twin towers, based on theories that I have heard from reliable sources and would like to see a panel discussion of mathematical and architectural facts that would debunk these facts therefore exposing other more realistic theories of what really happened to cause these buildings to collapse.

Worked in construction and engineering. Graduated from college in Philosophy. I have watched the collapse many times and can see the obvious. All the other stuff like the building turning to dust as it fell, a phoney engine by the Pentagon, the melting pools of metal months later, the traces of thermite, ad infinitum. It's time, for God-sake, for a new investigation.
Anyone who does not grasp that the free fall into its own footprint was a demolition does not understand basic physics. It was demolished.

Retired citizen sick and tired of seeing the US democracy owned and corrupted by Corporate power and the house and senate members who take cash bribes without due consideration of We The People and the true intent of our Founders in the Declaration of Independence. My advice; check all the voting records and do not vote back these violators under any circumstance.
This was clearly a criminal false flag incident perpetrated by our own corrupt Government. There should be prosecutions and indictments against the whole of the Bush Administration.

I have never let my schooling interfere with my education. ~ Mark Twain Innocent blood was shed on Sept. 11th 2001 and from that day forward I have never believed the official story parroted throughout the media. Their quick demonization of anyone questioning their identical scripted talking points became all the more suspicious to those of us who used discernment instead of emotion sorting out fact from fiction. We still have a mass-murder that has not been solved. There is no statute of limitations on murder. Anything less than a full re-investigation of this case is completely unacceptable to the American people, especially in honor of those victims who have died. Technically, we're all victims... we will continue to be victimized by these ruthless individuals unless justice is carried out and the actual perpetrators are convicted. Courageous men and women from all across this great country of ours need to stand up right now and face the hard evidence that has been laid out before us.

It was readily apparent on the morning of the events they were controlled... how else to keep the debris within the buildings footprints... I now understand dispersing 90,000 tons of concrete as particulate, ( clever )WTC #7 housed NYC's command and control center so it had to go... early on there were a few photos of steel beams that had become molten, jet fuel (?) most likely thermite, reminded me of Dresden... enough said.

I watched the real time news broadcasts on 9/11. At the time , I remember saying to myself, that the towers had been demolished. There is no way , in my mind, that the planes caused that type of destruction. The way the buildings fell is exactly how demolished buildings fall. And why would building #7 fall without being hit by a plane?

The former President, Former V.P., and his cabinet. It doesn't stop there you should also put on that list the Director of CIA, and the FBI for their indisputable foul Intelligence. Because if they were on the Ball 9/11 would've never happened!
The Whole official Story is a Fraud. I would love to know how these buildings really fell on that horrible day. We all Know the buildings had help and the couldn't fall due to fire damage, when no building in history has ever fallen to fire damage. The Way the Buildings fell is Purely Demolition. We've all seen it on the News where they Demolish a Casino in Vegas. I am with you guys all the way to the end. FREEDOM
