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.

Madison, AL
Occupation: Mechanical Design Engineer
Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, University of Washington, Seattle, WA. Have worked at Boeing (Everett and Renton) in mechanical flight controls group. While at Boeing, I participated in an accident investigation and witnessed how many parts (hydraulic actuators for spoilers, elevators, and rudder) were salvageable despite the high-speed impact of that crash (Silk Air 185.) Have also worked at Raytheon Missile Systems (Tucson, AZ) in EKV seeker design group. Have also worked at ITT (Huntsville, AL) on lethality testing (high-speed (~mach 2.5 - 6) impacts to verify lethality of missiles.) Currently work at Integration, Innovation, Inc. a defense contractor working on hypersonic missile design.
I skipped work on 9/11 to watch the whole day's coverage of the various attacks (WTC, Pentagon, Shanksville.) I absolutely remember hearing explosions, hearing people describe explosions, watching WTC 7 go down (I always knew 3 buildings went down that day.)All of the high-speed impact debris that I have examined have left significant portions of the original vehicle clearly identifiable and not entirely vaporized. The Silk Air plane hit the water above mach 1. Other identifiable debris I have handled have been from impacts from mach 2.5 to mach 5.None of the 9/11 events involved such high-speed impacts. Therefore, HUGE amounts of clearly identifiable debris should have been recovered from the World Trade Center, Pennsylvania and the Pentagon. Otherwise, the official story doesn't make sense.

I am a scholar of religion and psychology with a graduate degree from the University of Chicago. BA(honors) in psychology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, after attending Columbia, Dartmouth, Bates, and Boston University. I have a great interest in the social and personality psychology of authoritarianism, and deep love for the ideals of democracy that this country was founded on, and that are now gravely imperiled by the coup d'etat of 9/11. Ever hopeful, I pray for the continued success of the 9/11 Truth Movement, and will do what I can to further it. Let's Save Democracy!
I've been attending to 9/11 very closely ever since my brother in law admitted to me, three days after that tragic day, that he received foreknowledge from boys from the government. He was a manager of a hedge fund for Alliance Capital Management, a firm with close ties to PNAC. Research then revealed Alliance was one of the firms involved in the transactions of airline and other stocks effected by the attacks. I am most interested in what I call the psychology of non-perception. That is, a study of how and why people resist or deny the seeing the obvious, that this was a false flag operation, like so many others, to initiate a war under false pretenses.

Formal training includes statics, dynamics, metallurgy, chemistry. Have worked in manufacturing as an engineer and owned/operated a communications company dealing with fiber optics installation, testing, and termination. Currently working on three patents.
I do not believe that the towers and WTC 7 could have collapsed in such a uniform manner, given the temperatures at which the jet fuel burned and the duration of time that had elapsed before they collapsed. Also, the presence of thermite in samples of building materials has not been fully investigated and resolved.

I am a mechanical engineer by education, but practiced mostly in Project Management in the polymer, non-wovens, petrochemical, and refining industries.
Not only are the twin tower collapses in question, but the plane crash into the Pentagon needs further review. It seems unrealistic that more debris was not found on the site. Same goes for the PA plane crash in the middle of a field. Further investigation is needed in all 4 plane crashes. It smells like a cover up.

The near perfect free fall seen in all of the public videos and live TV coverage I've watched since the event occurred, can be fully explained only by analysis of a controlled demolition using thermite. The cover-up by the US government seriously damaged the trust of American citizens but also is a security risk to us as now other countries realize the US does NOT stand up for truth and justice. The WORLD deserves the TRUTH....NOW!

I also see many indications that the two towers were also set with charges and there were many explosions on lower floors. Recently more info is coming out about what struck the Pentagon, not an airliner and it was aimed directly at an office with the intent of destroying evidence on an investigation underway by patriots.

There is more than enough evidence to conclude the buildings that collapsed on September 11 were deliberately destroyed. Building Seven is the initial smoking gun in this investigation but, the evidence continues to mound more and more as it gets revealed.

I am a regular person who has looked at the available evidence put forth suggesting a new, independent, investigation into the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. I feel that the accepted story of Buildings 1 and 2 collapsing, and especially Building 7, due to fire is contrary to the expected behavior of those buildings. The evidence of explosives is overwhelming, and I believe there are major inconsistencies with the site at the pentagon and in Pennsylvania which require informed citizenry to demand a new investigation.

There is way too much evidence that these buildings collapsed with strategically placed explosives...not only did surrounding buildings go down, but no known accident similar to the 9/11 tragedy EVER ended with complete collapse... The film 'Loose Change' is very convincing...

Obviously controlled demolitions and military operations. Shut off your mega-media controlled media and think. It quickly becomes clear when you do the research.

In my opinion, even only some video sequences of the collapses of the twin towers prove that explosives were involved and caused the collapses, as you can see dust hurling vertically out of the towers below the actual collapses (as you can also see it when buildings get blown up).

I only have a G.e.d, so not a lot to say on that. But I have always been into research, and I do a lot of it and on many subjects.
The proof say's it all, anybody with half a brain can see that it was a demo. Granted they put forth time to investigate the facts. The terrorists whom had dealings with the 9/11 collapses live right here in America. They swear to uphold the constitution and to protect it from foreign and domestic threats right in front of the American people live on t.v. Via the news. I refuse to believe that the united states of America and NORAD could do nothing to prevent this. The united states of America is a superpower so to say, so why and how did four planes do this without them being able to stop it? It's so simple to figure out that children as young as 12yrs. Old can see what the truth really is.. They needed 9/11 to happen so they could set the stage and kick their plan into action, starting with taking our rights away one by one until they have shredded the constitution. We the people are a threat to the real terrorists, and they want us disarmed.

My educational background is in psychology. I am currently studying philosophy and am and will always be a student of human nature.
Even a layman can see that the buildings had to have had explosions on the lower levels. Also, the temperatures were not hot enough to melt the beams. Then you also have the eyewitness accounts of the sounds of explosions prior to the planes hitting the towers. I think I know what to believe and what is just BS.

I didn't see the second Tower fall, live on TV as many did. I was late to the tragic events of the day. But by noon, I was riveted to the TV. Some of the comments I heard by people like Dan Rather was that the fall of the Towers was like a controlled demolition. Then, incredibly, I saw Building 7 fall, live. Uh oh, I thought, THAT didn't look right. So, I anticipated much discussion in the media about 7s impossible collapse,,, as in there definitely were demolition devices used. But the next day and ever since, the mainstream media has said not one word about building 7. Ever since then, I've been very receptive to the fact that someone other than the 19 named individuals did the deed.

I have a partial education in landscape architecture. I have seven years of experience as a designer, draftsman and technical illustrator for Fortune 500 manufacturing companies, engineering consulting firms and a world-renowned architectural practice.
In reading news accounts and articles on the Internet and in viewing videos of the the events of 9/11/01, I have found more than enough evidence to justify a thorough examination of all circumstances and events of that day. Molten metal, thermite traces and residue, multiple reports of explosions and injuries from them, puffs of smoke, unaccountable activities and noises throughout the buildings before the 9/11 incident, the pulling of building seven with no attempt to extinguish fires--none of these things make sense.

I have not been confident in accepting the official 9/11 reports given by the commercial media. This has prompted me to do my own independent research and the 9/11: BLUEPRINT FOR TRUTH the architecture of destruction documentary (2008 research edition) has confirmed my doubt in the official reports after viewing it. I believe the evidence presented in this documentary and the Architects & Engineers for 9/11 truth website is true and correct that all three World Trade Center buildings were destroyed by controlled demolition.
