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.

The Perfect vertical symmetry (No toppling) of the collapse seems to be highly improbable, as well as the thoroughness of destruction of the major elements of the bearing wall outer steel structure. It all seems to indicate a possible Engineered Demolition.

No steel framed high-rise had ever collapsed due to fire before 9-11-01, none since. Yet we are asked to believe that THREE buildings collapsed due to fire on 9-11-01. Many buildings both before and after 9-11 have fallen due to planned explosive demolition. The official pancake theory of WTC1 and WTC2 doesn't hold up. All you have to do is watch a video. The pancake theory posits that the floors collapse one on top of the next. That's not what you see. To say that the three buildings collapsed is not really accurate, the buildings disintegrated. Large amounts of material were ejected laterally from WTC1 and WTC2. Reinforced concrete turned to dust in midair, and the buildings fell so fast that it's clear that the building structure presented no resistance at all. In the words of Dan Rather: Amazing, incredible, pick your word. For the third time today, it's reminiscent of those pictures we've all seen too much on television before when a building was destroyed by well-placed dynamite to knock it down. Where came the energy to slice steel girders and pulverize concrete? Not from a kerosene fire, that's for sure, yet that's what we're asked, no told, to believe. We need to reopen this investigation.

I worked on the Standard Oil Building design team at Perkins and Will Partnership (1972-74), when it topped out as the tallest building in the world. That was just weeks before Yamaski's Detroit design team's 1st World Trade Center tower topped out and beat us for that record. Our Chicago team was joint ventured with the NYC-based building design firm Edward Durrell Stone. Each tower design team had been following the work of the other for several years. Many of us became friends and associates. I reviewed and studied the 911 FEMA structural analysis report of the New York City and Pentagon incidents when it was published and noted hundreds of discrepancies and apparently deliberate omissions. I worked on several major project designs for over a decade with the Seattle-based structural design firm that designed the World Trade Center towers. I was intimately familiar with the structural characteristics of the WTC towers. They were quite obviously deliberately demolished internally by high-temperature explosives placed by professional demolition experts at hundreds of key structural joints. There is no other way those buildings could collapse within their own footprints as they did.
This was a deliberate act on the part of those who already had all the access to the WTC site that they required; they used the airliner attacks as a diversion. Apparently they were aware of the planned air attacks and used that knowledge to their internal American political strategic advantage. The Neocons?

i first became aware of Steven Jones work on nano thermite in a pdf file i came across i started to read it but it went over my head but then i saw a you tube clip that explained it i then read the pdf file ,it's like a jigsaw puzzle the more bits of information you get the clearer the picture becomes until the point where you are left with absolutely no doubt whatsoever that explosives brought the three towers down.

Besides the obvious intentional, prepared demolitions, there are still film images of the second plane hitting the tower. These images show an equipment bulge which is not present on a 767, but rather defines the discontinued 767 based E-10 MC2A military jet.

Modern skyscrapers do not collapse into their own footprints at nearly free-fall speed from any natural cause; and neither jet fuel nor molten structural metal should have smoldered for more than three months.

Since 9/11 I have seen many other buildings burn and much more severely than WTC 7, but none of them fell with the classic V shape that is the hallmark of a controlled demolition - in fact, none of them fell at all.

I am neither an architect nor an engineer, but have been exposed to compelling information about the events of Sept 11 2001 that lead me to believe that our government is culpable.
Nothing hit building 7 and yet it fell as if being demolished. This alone should warrant further investigation.

My name is J.J. Bondurant. I am a Spanish major at the University of Oregon, and I have a working knowledge of physics after taking some college level physics courses. I also read a lot in my spare time, and I am generally a pretty knowledgeable person.
I have a vested interest in physics and I have come to understand that the 9/11 attacks as reported could not have been responsible for the implosions of the World Trade Towers. I also have an even greater interest in the continuity of our democracy, and considering how our country has changed as a result of the 9/11 attacks, I believe that they should be more thoroughly investigated (and by a third party, specifically).

I have seen, read, and listened to far too many testimonies, exposing giant loopholes in the official story of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, to simply stand by and act as if nothing can be done to change the status quo. I have always been confused about how two of the world's largest steel structures, when hit towards the top levels, collapsed from the bottom up. I am no expert in engineering or architecture, but this website provides well-researched information on alternative theories to the official stories of the buildings' collapse.

This is marked required, but I do not understand why, as I have NO background in architecture nor engineering. I am a simple 63 year old woman with a BS in Educ 1965 (Major in English). I continually search for truth because that is the only way to obtain peace.
After reading Dr. Griffin's book on WTC 7 and reading several of his articles plus articles by experts (architects, engineers, physicists) and watching four different videos related to 9-11, there is no doubt in my mind that the buildings collapsed as the result of controlled demolitions. Only high power sophisticated explosive techniques could cause heavy metals to fly through the air and land with force on other buildings. Only by the use of thermate and/or superthermite (nanothermite) could the massive steel columns be melted and create a flow of molten steel. Also, the FACT that fire alone has NEVER caused any other building to fall at free-fall speed and turn into a tidy pile of debris must be considered if validity is to be a factor in the evaluation.
