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.

WTC 7 Building could not have collapsed as a result of internal fire and external debris. NO plane hit this building. This is the only case of a steel frame building collapsing through fire in the world. The fire on this building was small & localized therefore what is the cause?

9/11 is a well managed media event. Its factual reality is contrary to many scientific and engineering principles. The abscence of engineers in the political cadre as opposed to business & legal professionals have allowed this mistaken perception about 9/11 TRUTH to be created and allowed to continue. It has given Washington and its willing allies to give world history a wrong and dangerous turn for the benefit of a few billionaires - possibly oil/airline/construction & Insurance interests! I ran on 9/11 truth as a political plank in one of my political campaigns in the last decade in Canadian Federal Elections.

When I saw this happen in 2001 I was at work. Everybody was watching this horrific at the office. All were shocked as to how the WTC could collapse. It was never plausible to me that the planes did this huge damage, the buildings collapsed too symmetrical and it looked like a casino explosion! Since 11 years I've never believed the official story.

23 year member of the international brotherhood of electrical workers for inside construction. I've been on numerous large scale construction projects, both industrial and large scale commercial. Back in 2006 I had the opportunity to work at a Florida power and light facility in Indian town, fl. What I saw there led to me questioning the official story of 9/11. A bad gas valve at power house blew flames on to a 12 story, bare steel structure for hours. Fire rising over 300 feet in the air. The main column it was hitting barely twisted a little at the top. Granted we had to replace a lot of wiring and smaller braces of the structure, I realized at that time the myth the media had been selling. I started looking into the events of that fateful day and learned building 7 also met it's demise. Years later, I still find sheeple who think only two buildings fell that day. I've had enough. Everyone I know will learn what I have and I'm happy to find a rational place to send them. Thank you, j.a. Maisano
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see the towers didn't collapse. My 11 year old son didn't believe that bunk when he was eight. He loll, frankly, and said adults are stupid.

This was more than meets the press. The impacts do not match the physics of the collapse. It will remain a focal point in many agenda's until the real data is actually presented. It was a dramatic and highly strategic move used as what is obviously a distraction to motivate another action.

I've been in the construction business and assisted in the construction of load bearing frame work. My experience in construction has given me a general idea of building integrity.
I've been in the construction business and assisted in the construction of load bearing frame work so with that said I was initially confounded by building 7's demise. After watching an unbiased diagnoses of the collapse by your site my hunch turned into full blown suspicion. The truth is being hidden from us.

The collapses had to have been planned - there is no way the building could come down at freefall speed like it did unless all resistance was removed. Plus. the steel frame would have remained. They were also not at usual capacity for that early on a weekday

Since hearing Mr. Richard Gage's presentation on public television I am now concerned that all is not know to the American people about the 911 terrorist attack. Apparently, other factors are in play and I want to know all I can about it. I do not have technical background experience on this, but Mr. Gage's comments were thorough and compelling.

35 years experience building commercial and residential structures gives me a familiarity with blueprints and understanding of practical engineering.
Reading the A&E's reasoning and seeing the film footage makes me have a very difficult time believing the official version of events. I have to say watching the buildings collapse live immediately made me pause and say this is not real. The only 3 skyscrapers in the world to ever collapse from fire, I say prove it the proof put forward is totally inadequate.

It was shocking when I heard this conspiracy theory. But the more you think about it the more it makes sense. The U.S. government has the power to get away with anything. The sad thing is they utilize this fact to the fullest.

Ive worked in residential construction for 20yrs. Experienced in foundation to roof.
It simply defies physics that the tops of those buildings took the path of most resistance. The lower floors were designed to support the weight of the upper floors. they had to be blown for that to be compromised. Everyone should sit & stare at wrecking ball demolition. Buildings don't collapse easily.

I have always believed it was an inside job. The facts surrounding the case have been muddled. And I feel that an investigation needs to take place to bring closure for the families left behind as well as those murdered. The cat is out of the bag; it wasn't al qaeda (the little toilet in Arabic) it wasn't Bin Laden. So don't insult our intelligence by this cock and bull story of the planes did it. Or these so called hijackers Have mercy on your own souls if you have one; and come out with the truth or at the very least let it be investigated by an untainted source.

Growing up in the 1950s and 60s, I tended to accept just about everything I was told by my teachers, the government, the TV and movie industry, and society in general without really questioning it. Until my freshman year at high school, that is. It was then that the idea of what if crossed my mind. When I finished my schooling, I decided to travel the world and see with my own eyes whether all I had been taught about the rest of the world was as I had been taught. It wasn't. And that made me start questioning everything else I had been taught. In my early twenties, I began living in Tokyo, Japan, where I stayed for the next 30 years before coming back to the United States. Having lived approximately half and half of my life up to this point in two different countries/cultures, I tended to view things from perspectives that are not shared by many. If anything, I have learned to never accept anything at face value, but always to look behind the curtain.
Having no knowledge of architecture, I can only comment from a novice's viewpoint. Three concrete and steel buildings came down on the same day due to fires even though no concrete and steel building had ever been brought down by fire before in the history of architecture. Two of those buildings had also been struck by extremely large aircraft, also a world's first, but the third building collapse is totally inexplicable. When one considers the scale of the fire in WTC 7, it is unfathomable that it could have fallen into its own footprint (at near free-fall speed no less) because of fire. But whether there were oddities about the collapse of the three towers on that day really has little to do with my strong convictions that there is more to 9/11 than what meets the eye. In fact, the suspicious nature of the fall of the buildings is more like the period at the end of the sentence that has already been spoken.

Die Aufkl'rung l'sst viele Fragen offen, ich habe vorgestern das ERSTEMAL etwas von Geb'ude7 geh'rt! Leider hatte ich nur wenig Videomaterial zum sichten, aber die Tatsache das ein ganzes Hochhaus in Deutschland NICHT von den Medien aufgegriffen wurde macht mich stutzig und l'sst mich doch aufhorchen. The enlightenment can open many questions, The first time I have heard of before yesterday Geb'ude7! Unfortunately, I was making very little footage to sift, but the fact that an entire tower block in Germany was not taken up by the media and makes me suspicious caught my attention yet.

I am appalled that the Federal and local governments are willing to turn a blind eye to the truth and I pray that what is currently happening to our country today, is not some kind of reproof for the crimes committed by our Government on 9/11. Don't get me wrong, the crimes by which I am speaking are the ones of them not implementing a full investigation on the obvious evidence being ignored. SOMEONE MUST BE RESPONSIBLE, WE MUST HOLD THOSE RESPONSIBLE, ACCOUNTABLE!

I feel that there is some very serious discrepancies surrounding 9/11 and all the events that took place. I don't understand the United States Government could have responded in the way that they did. When President Bush was in the classroom and was advised that a 2nd plane had crashed into the 2nd tower and that a 3rd plane was in the air that was possibly hi-jacked how he could have sat there listening to my pet goat.... There are too many issues to list here but I think that the US Government was responsible in some way.

Absolutely not because of fires. suspicious behavior from planted witnesses such as actor wearing Harley shirt, Pentagon studio guest with alleged aircraft part, SUV driver ( see Rick Leaventhal on Fox) etc planted engine parts at WTC Murray and small pieces of alleged wreckage at pentagon Suspicious immediate commentary from the likes of Jerome Hauer on CBS suspicious behaviour from foreign nationals in NY and evidence that firms with contracts to guard US airports and CCTV footage non forthcoming Body of evidence is totally overwhelming and I have reviewed official versions from BBC Nova and National Geographic and found them totally pitiful
