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.

I doubt the truth of the official story, and want the entire story of 9/11 to be disclosed.

Jo Anne A. Bonjukian
Port Orchard, WA
Occupation: A/C Accident Investigation
Former occupation was in aircraft accident investigation at a major airline located in the Pacific Northwest. Interviewed crew members, specifically pilots, involved in such incidences along with obtaining NTSB reports. Reported to MD-80, 727, and 737 flight instructors along with chief pilot. One son is preparing to become an architect at a state university starting the Fall of 2009.
My first notice of an anomaly in the official 9/11 story began when I drove past the Pentagon approximately one month after the alleged 'attack'. What I saw perplexed me as from my background, I determined that a 757 could not have possibly fit into a 16-foot hole and leave little to no debris field at that. Afterwards, I contacted a friend who works for a governmental agency (commercial building engineer) and asked him how it is possible that aviation fuel could burn hot enough to 'melt' the steel trusses and supposedly causing a 'pancake' collapse. Then I asked him how WTC 7 fell. He only answered that fires were hot enough in WTC 7 to cause its collapse. The last time I spoke to him was in 2001 and he will not return my phone calls. He defended the WTC 1 & 2 official 'pancake' explanation. I've since listened and printed out many theories as to why these buildings fell. Steven Jones suggestion about thermite or thermate is intriguing. Others have suggested a mini-nuke device was implanted at the base of the buildings. It is obvious WTC 7 was a controlled demolition. But I wanted to hear from the experts, such as those on this site. My biggest objective now is to find out why the evidence was removed before experts could examine it - especially the steel. Why did fires keep burning under the rubble for over a month? But most important is why the investigations are being obviously covered-up. This is why I appreciate your site and will gladly sign the petition.

I've always thought that the way the buildings fell so fast and almost straight down despite asymmetric damage to each tower was a little strange. I can't fathom a reason that WTC7 fell at all. I don't believe what our government tells us and since Dick Cheney was involved, I absolutely don't believe the official story.

I have been a pastor for more than 50 years having started as a teenager in rural churches. I went to school to CST and was two years behind David Ray Griffin, I know both his intellectual greatness and his commitment to truth and honesty as well as his genuine patriotism. I have served churches in Hawaii and California and worked at UCLA in the Counseling Center. I was a District Superintendent in the United Methodist Church and currently I am serving both a church and as National Chaplain for PPFA.
I am one of the earlier Truthers having read D. R. Griffin's The New Pearl Harbor and being convinced by his disturbing questions to ask for a thorough investigation. Through a friend of Lee Hamilton (Sister Pat Kromer) I connected with him and took 6 copies of TNPH to him at the Reagan Building in DC as the 9/11 Commission was getting started. Hamilton denied knowing anything about Griffin's work during a TV interview and that was the most convincing reason for me to suspect a coverup.

As stated so well in a Europhysics journal, the evidence points overwhelmingly to the conclusion that all three buildings were destroyed by controlled demolition.

Most of my professional work has been in commercial and residential renovation. I am also licensed as a general contractor and not only design, but also build.
All three buildings collapsed in their own footprints, which is a highly unlikely event unless as a result of controlled demolition. The building's architect has stated that the structures were designed for airplane strikes. If one were to believe that the weight of the airplanes were responsible for the collapse, then they should come up with a scenario why the third, 42 story building also collapsed in it's own footprint without being struck by an airplane...and also why the old post office building across the street did not fall from the supposed ground shaking. Also, if one supposes the collapse was due to the airplane weight and complicity of the fire created by airplane fuel burning...do they really think it's possible to melt steel instantaneously at gravitational freefall rate? (Even if airplane fuel could burn hot enough to melt steel in the first place).

A week after 9/11 I joined the US Navy and served for 2 years. In the 2008 election, I was a Regional Field Director for Obama, responsible for running campaign offices in a 4 county region of South Carolina.
The more I try to find about 9/11 the more I see the government's official theory does not explain what happened. The explanation of the World Trade Center towers collapsing does not stand up to the scientific method of reasoning and investigating. Further investigation needs to be done, so we can understand what happened and we can protect ourselves from something like this in the future.

Sadly, it's not a matter of showing the open mind the contradictions of the official story but rather opening closed minds to the truth. Just as you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, neither can you force someone to see the obvious. My personal experience is that most Americans simply don't want to know and will go to great lengths to hide their eyes and cover their ears. It's going to take a great deal of (self inflicted) pain before the eyes begin to open and the mind desires to acknowledge what they already know. Our government lies to us. It's that simple. As long as we insist on Daddy telling us that everything will be OK, nothing will change. The key is to be there, ready to help, when the eyes finally open.

My intuition on that horrendous day, told me something was so strange, in the way those buildings fell so quickly. I had no idea that fire could make a building fall like that in less than 10 seconds! I had immediate doubts about what the media was telling us.

I am retired from Fresno County Government. I have a couple of blogs dealing with the issues of 9/11 and the Iraq War, at http://bgamall.stumbleupon.com and a new one with some great links on these subjects at http://bgamall.bravejournal.com/
I have had people tell me that fires caused building 7 to pancake. But one can clearly see from the video that building 7 was in free fall. This coupled with George Bush's strange behavior on 9/11, behavior that shows he saw himself as not being a target, and you have reason to believe that 9/11 was a false flag operation. Bush may try to use the alibi that this was a sting operation, that many knew about the planes being hijacked but that no one knew that they would hit the WTC. That would be a very sinister lie, and would be his way out if there ever were an investigation. Congress must be aware of that false alibi if they ever reopen the investigation.
