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.

Graduated from the University of Waterloo, Ontario in 1994. Worked from 1994 - 2002 as an electronic design engineer and project manager at several major Canadian high-technology companies. Joined Deloitte in 2003 as a consulting engineer and senior manager. Licensed as a professional engineer in the province of Ontario. Now continue to work as an engineering business consultant and director for a leading Ontario firm.
The physical evidence pointing to a controlled demolition of the WTC towers and WTC building 7 are undeniable. An independent investigation of the evidence is needed to answer the many outstanding questions that have never been addressed. The official explanation of the events of 9/11 are clearly false, and must be independently investigated so that the truth of the physical evidence can be brought to light.

Even before I saw the AE911Truth videos, I believed that WTC 1, 2, and 7 did not collapse as a result of fire, or being struck by airliners. I agreed with Dan Rather, when he said that it looked like a controlled demolition, since I'd seen videos of buildings that were brought down with that method. AE911Truth has convinced me this is the case. We need a timely investigation because there are still many individuals who know exactly what happened and how. We need to question them under oath as soon as possible, or we will lose the opportunity.

Davis, 1968; solar and HVAC system design & analysis of residential and commercial buildings; alternative energy resource analysis (wind, hydro, photovoltaics) 1976-1985; Professional Engineering registration in 1981 (Mechanical); Mechanical Engineer, California Energy Commission (health and safety analysis of proposed power plant projects; energy research grant program technical oversight (1986-1993); graduate study in Civil Engineering, U.C. Davis (1990-1993); P.E. review course in seismic building design; currently Hazardous Substances Engineer, California Department of Toxic Substances Control (oversight of seismic hazard study of industrial waste water treatment plant; design of piping system; construction oversight, database development)
The nearly free-fall velocity and the symmetrical path of collapse of Building 7, the confined footprint of the building's debris, the lack of any external force applied to the building's exterior are suspicious. Coupled with these factors, a visual comparison of the collapse with that of buildings being leveled by professional, controlled demolition suggests that the cause officially attributed to the failure (weakening of the structural members due to fire) is exceedingly unlikely. The true cause was likely an intentional, controlled demolition using explosive thermal charges typically employed for such purposes. The failures of WTC Buildings 1 and 2, likewise, are suspicious due to the inherent design strength of the buildings' cores to withstand aircraft impact; the relatively low temperature of a kerosene fire v. the temperature required for structural steel failure; the presence of subterranean molten steel, suggesting that a high-temperature cutting material was employed (thermate or a derivative); the debris cloud, which resembled that from an explosion; and like Building 7, the near free-fall velocity of collapse. Together these factors suggest that the cause of collapse was an intentional deployment of a professionally designed and executed demolition process utilizing systematically and remotely detonated, thermal cutting charges strategically situated throughout the buildings on key structural support members and their joints.

Occupation: Inventor/Business Owner
PhD Engineering, University of Pennsylvania, 1988. I worked in the defense industry from 1985 to 2001, and in consumer electronics from 1998 to the present. I'm a retired inventor and large business owner. I have extensive scientific and engineering background and experience, particularly in military intelligence.
From the simplest piece of information alone, free fall speed of collapse, it is not even remotely possible to suggest any hypothesis other than controlled demolition. In other words, it is already physically impossible for anything other than controlled demolition to have caused a free fall speed of collapse. The huge mountain of other evidence collected corroborates completely and further proves controlled demolition, although it should be the obvious cause. It was spouted all over the media for one day (9/11/2001) then forbidden and officially called a crazy theory put forth by aluminum foil-hatted conspiracy nuts. The official story claims a conspiracy, where the people involved could not have possibly committed such an intricately planned and difficult demolition. High level people in the military were needed. So the truth of controlled demolition was replaced by an impossible lie about airplanes and their resultant pockets of fire. In addition to being trained to be skeptical, I am so by nature. It was with this approach that I started to study the evidence of 9/11, one thinking this evidence is flawed. It did not take long to be convinced beyond any shadow of doubt that the official story of 9/11 is a planted lie, that three World Trade Center buildings were demolished on purpose, that the Pentagon was hit by a missile, that the Pennsylvania crash did not occur at all, and that the force behind all this horror is a small rogue but extremely powerful group within our own government: the Neocons to be precise.

Please Wake Up my fellow Americans. Building 7 seems to clearly be a classic demolition. And the near identical, symmetrical collapsing (building 7 seemed to collapse) while the twin towers appeared to symmetrically explode into their footprints has me question the ability of a fire to manifest these near identically destroyed buildings.

I'm an average American with a lot of unanswered questions about the events surrounding the explosions of the three WTC buildings on 9/11/01.
I have never believed the public media stories that were created around the implosions of the WTC Twin Towers. From the first moments of coverage, the stories and the live videos did not match up. It was extremely obvious that the buildings had been deliberately imploded. And why was the media not allowed to cover the demolition footage of Building 7 when it was destroyed? Why did this building not even make it into the news? We, the American people, are tired of being lied to. We are not idiots and we do not appreciate being treated as such. We want to know the truth: WHOM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MASSACRE OF INNOCENT PEOPLE? We want their names and their roles in the development and execution of this crime against humanity. We are requesting a thorough investigation into these matters. Thank you for responding to our requests for more information.

It looks, on the evidence so far presented, to be a controlled demolition. The owner of Building 7 has said to camera that he authorised a 'pull' = controlled demolition. Need a real investigation, before another false flag attack.

I am a 27 year old musician, striving to make a name for myself and my band. Not much about me can contribute to the structural integrity of buildings, but I do believe that there's no way those planes could have brought the towers down by themselves. There's just too much evidence.

Just someone who cares about truth. It's so obvious that the world has been duped for a long time by a very small group of inadequate dominate men. It's been going on for millions of years it would seem now.
So obvious that planes didn't bring them down. And where's the plane or cruise missile that hit the pentagon? I want to know what happened to the people that got on those planes. Their families should know the truth.

I am not an engineering professional. I taught Kindergarten & then 1st grade for 4 years, have had many professions, worked for Kaiser Permanente and most recently have been a licensed Realtor for 4 years.
A year or so after 9/11 a co-worker emailed me a link to a video showing some sort of missile or small plane hitting the pentagon, then I began looking into all of this. Many of the sites I viewed seemed to go away after a short period of time and I was never able to see the same video again. It was similar to the one released, but had more frames in it clearly showing some sort of smaller projectile and NOT a large plane. I felt sick, and my family even considered leaving the country. This prompted me to look at the collapses more skeptically and I found some of the info you have detailed. Recently I started looking for info to discredit the truth movements statements, but found all of the debunking sites to be seriously flawed.

I am an artist and Home Energy Analyst living an hour north of New York City. I have friends who live in the city and who were there when 9/11 happened. Based on what they told me they saw, I decided to do some investigation about what looked to me on 9/11/2001 on live TV to be a controlled demolition. In downloading numerous images and viewing hours of video, I was still left feeling that there was something that just was not right about the official explanation. I found the video of AE911truth to be the best scientific analysis to date of this event and have encouraged many others to purchase and view it and then pass their copy on to a friend or relative.
Let's do some real science and determine the actual causes for the collapse of WT 1, 2, & 7. The official explanation has too many unanswered questions and there is no information or explanation for nanothermite being present in the buildings or the debris. The American public deserves to know the truth and that can only be obtained by a thorough re-investigation by an independent source with no connection to any party with financial or political interests.

Within the discipline of sculpture I have been trained and am skilled in and have working knowledge of many media, including metal, glass, ceramics, wood and concrete. This knowledge is within the limitations of sculpting.
I believe that enough (circumstantial) evidence has been made available that should validate the further investigation into the tower collapses.
