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.

With a scientific background and a remarkable curious nature, with extensive research and as a writer now, the news events of the WTC destruction make zero sense. This is only one of many areas in my research. To be frank, the amount of data load of nonsense out there (most probably deliberate), makes it more difficult for the general public to find the facts from legitimate experts when there is an overload of videos from 'what I call - famesters - clowns or eejets'. I am interested in facts and currently considering how to present many legitimate ideas to the Irish general public (opposed to mainstream TV which consistently bombards the Irish people with the press releases) - it's hugely distressing and extremely sad.

Watching TV on 9/11 I was wondering why the buildings didn't collapse right after the impact. At that time I was not an architect or nor did I have any idea of the strucural design of the buildings. And I didn't remember anything about a building 7. Just recently (summer of 2011) I accidentally heared something about chemicals found in the buildings debris, which were'nt supposed to be there. I started watching one documentary after another, didn't sleep much for days and learned that almost everything spread by the official media is just rubbish. I felt I had to participate in helping to reveal the truth in a sober and fact-based way. It was engineers like myself, who are used to working with facts rather then assumtions etc. , that helped me join AE911Truth.

I received my BSME from Portland State University in June 2014. I've only recently begun my professional engineering career.
I've long been concerned by the speed and thoroughness of the collapse of the three WTC towers. If high-rise steel structures could collapse from fire alone, I can't imagine that most people would feel comfortable stepping foot in one. I appreciate what AE911Truth is doing to raise awareness about building 7 because it is the key.

I have worked as an applications engineer for a semiconductor company in the Portland area for the last 20 years.
I doubt very much the story that is given, about the buildings collapsing upon themselves due to the fire as a result of the planes hitting the building. For two buildings to collapse upon their own footprint in exactly the same way defies probability. Building 7 of the World Trade Center, a steel reinforced building that only had a few office fires, just confirms that this was an inside job.

No building, nor any other structure, would fall symmetrically when hit from one direction. It would tip over because of gravity. When we watched the collapse of the two towers I did not think so much about it. But when building 7 collapsed the way it did I got vey suspicious. Good to see that some colleagues have discovered the conspiracy.

Recently 911 truth finding has caught my attention. WIll become active in spreading the word in China and in my home country New Zealand. I am teaching here in Beijing students who will go to Western countries so I will make sure that I spread the word to them and all my friends and family about this issue.
Absolutely no doubt about the conclusive scientific evidence and cover up. Until an independent inquiry is undertaken this issue will never go away. I hope this will come sooner rather than later so we can prevent any further repercussions of blaming innocents who had nothing to do with the attacks.

My education is in Business and I have an Master in Business Administration and a Bachelor in Supply Chain Management.
I have doubts over the official story. Too many questions have been raised and not sufficiently and honestly answered.

I am not an engineer or architect. I'm just an average Joe. I work in retail and live a normal life (whatever that means). I never graduated from high school nor went to college. I worked at an occult shop for a year and I met some interesting people that were affiliated with certain occult groups in high places. I am not happy with their intentions. I am a loving conscious being that loves humanity and I want to do everything in my power help these poor people find some light in their hearts.
I remember in April of 2001 I was watching a series on the Discovery channel about controlled demolition and the science behind it. As you can expect once I saw the Towers come down something inside me did not feel right. Because of what I learned on the Discovery channel, and before the official story was hammered into our psychology, I immediately new the planes and the fires that resulted from them were not the reason the Towers came down.

I recall reading, prior to 9/11, that the WTC was of inefficient design for modern offices and full of asbestos. The collapse seemed strange at the time but when the EPA claimed that the air was safe, I thought something is very wrong here. After absorbing much information, there appears to be compelling evidence to suggest that everything is not as it seems.

I had a 2 yr course in welding in a vocational welding class in high school. Years later I put it to use when I went to work for Thrall rail car and then Morton metal craft, a total of 13 yrs. I did a lot of cutting through those years involving different processes and gases.
I have watched a lot of interviews and videos and the official report just does not add up. I can clearly see the explosions going off as the towers collapse. Working with red hot metal a lot I have a good idea of its characteristics. There is no way a pile driver effect could cause such a collapse. Heat transfer would have had to be enormous to weaken the structure all the way down and there is nothing to support that that kind of extreme heat existed. Then you have building 7 falling straight down with no resistance.

No bio just a concerned observer ......... Very much an issue / event I have followed since inception among my many concerns is the way websites disappear. There have been many over the years that I have book marked and then come back to some time later to find they have vanished! Really hoping that that is not going to be the case here!!
it is a physical impossibility for three buildings to collapse to the ground completely destroyed due to weakening of the structures by fire alone

No technical architectural or engineering experience, but have researched the events of 9/11 extensively and am convinced by fact, logic and common sense that events didn't completely follow the official line and that this should be re-assessed.
I lived in the United States for 3 years and watched with extreme sympathy the History Channel version of the collapse of the WTC towers. I was shocked, therefore when following the story of Colleen Rowley, that I came across stories that varied from the official Bush Administration's story. Further investigation drew me to A&E for 9/11 Truth and it was the technical and scientific data with regard to the collapses (which had looked suspicious on the day, but was eclipsed by one's shock and horror at the situation), that persuaded me that it is entirely necessary that a new investigation be undertaken.

B.S degree, study on my own issues such as 9/11 and others as I will never as a citizen take their word for truth and always question truth to power and 911 is not the only serious issue!
It was irrefutable to watch the towers come down at the speed of gravity in dust, not by 2 planes full of gasoline but controlled demolition which I have seen in the past to bring down high rises in their own footprint.

I have been active in political issues for two decades.
I attended Cal Poly and heard a speech on this issue as well as read articles on the issue of implosion of the twin towers. As an interested person on the subject, I believe the twin towers were not 'downed' by airplanes, but rather by implosion. I heard the talk by the University of Utah Physics professor on the subject of building implosions and how one MUST conclude that the buildings did implode.

23+years in the HVAC/R, married, father of 3. I am one to search for answers, deduce what I have found, make an educated decision and stand up for what is right and have no problem making my opinion known to authority figures.
Well a friend of mine told me about Loose Change video a few years back. I watched it then blew it off saying conspiracies are for nut jobs. Well, while I was doing some soul searching for answers to many issues dealing with religion and what we were taught growing up through schools, I was taken back about how humanity has been duped for many years in a number of areas. I grew up in Philly, PA and saw quite a few controlled demos including The Veterans Stadium and a high-rise apartment complex come down. After seeing the cut marks on one standing center beam, melted, and on a precise angle, I started to get concerned, and looked for more evidence. The few videos I have seen on this topic, and similar ones that lead to the Federal Reserve Act being passed, then our push into WW1 and WW2, I am convinced we need some sort of new leadership. These politicians we have been allowing to control our thinking and the way we live are just lining their pockets with money and enslaving us via DEBT. I am now under the understanding that the extremist Muslims most likely had no involvement in this act as it was too precise and needed special clearance that would have taken weeks to set up the charges in the towers.

The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been very profitable for a few companies. Government and corporate relationships have become inappropriate and there has been war profiteering on both sides. We need to abolish the Federal Reserve, and keep America sovereign. the government must be representative of the citizens and not the powerful corporations who now hold their allegiance.
I believe that this event was planned in advance with the for knowledge of the government of the united states and that there is evidence to support this. An investigation needs to take place to determine the level of involvement that the US government played in the 911 attack, and determine those involved.
