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.

One, just one angle-cut column with the slag on the (wrong), outside (which indicates it was cut from within!?) as found on many pictures, is sufficient proof of prepared demolition. During clean-up, I understand, Thermate or Thermite wasn't used. I know a good and proper heavy steel-cut done by blow torch when I see one, many years regular on the job. The very irregular ragged, deep cratered cuts I see on pictures of the various column parts aren't done by blow torch. Long before 9/11 the USA government knew what was coming, warned many times by various services inland and foreign. Instead of dealing with these threats properly, rogue forces, NWO of government anticipated these events by preparing the WTC buildings with explosives and also planning large scale black ops involving air traffic control. When the fatal day came, they were prepared.

I am a master jeweler by trade, and own a jewelry store. I was the first hippie in my high school in Farmington, Michigan, and started the Jesus movement (they labeled me a Jesus freak). In 1970 I traveled across country preaching the LOVE OF GOD to the hippies in every city I traveled through. For the most part they received Jesus openly and eagerly. I landed in southern California, and helped start the Calvalry Chapel and Vineyard outreaches with Lonnie Frisbe (google - hippie preacher- for that story)...(over 1,000 churches now) I don't know what really happened on 9-11 but something stinks....I would like to know the whole truth...I doubt that we ever will....GOD IS LOVE,....AND THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE
Not sure what really happened, but some things just don't add up.... I want to know the truth!!!

I has been perfectly clear to me since shortly after 9/11/2001 that the official story was incorrect. The pancake theory of the building collapses never made any sense to me. Having been aware that one of the defining characteristics of steel is cold, I could not have believed fire melted or weakened the steel in those buildings. Beside that, building 7 clearly appears to be controlled demolition. Any lay observer can see that.

I have never believed that a fire could have caused this damage, not fire alone anyway. As I watched the buildings fall that day, I knew that the fire must have found a source to cause an explosion like that. It seem all too simple to me, get a firecracker, light it, and watch the explosion. Did this happen to building 7, no. How can no one care? If this government had anything to do with this, my family which have almost across the board served the public as teachers, preachers, military, nurses, etc. need to know who is the enemy.

I'm 23, a student at NKU studying for a B.S in political science, and a mother of two beautiful girls. I was fortunate enough to be awakened about the possible truths of 9/11 recently and extremely ready to do my part to see that OUR government does it's part in seeking justice for the true perpitraitors of the 9/11 tradgedy. I have confidence in our constitution as I am very familiar with it and its implications and hope to see liberty prevail for the many precious lives lost and the ones survived by them.
I would believe an architect over a politician any day as they study these sorts of things and politicians study politics (if we're lucky) too many architects have testified that it seems as if it was a controlled demolition that brought the buildings down. I have watched videoes of all three buildings and would also assert a not-so-educated guess that they are probably right.

Too coincidental for so many variables for them to collapse like a controlled demolition. And it is obvious they collapsed just like a controlled demolition.

Most of my technical information is from a Scientific curiosity about everything. My formal education stopped after High School but I have increased my wealth of knowledge through reading and research about the World around me...which I find fascinating Still! I have learned most on my own, not schooling.
My first thought on watching the buildings collapse, was one of wonder! How could they come down just like programmed demolitions which we have seen many many times on TV' They take hours and hours of preparation to achieve that effect, and yet 3 buildings came down in the exact same fashion...just by coincidence? Especially since each building had a different set of circumstances..which should preclude them from reacting the same way.

In past have worked on non-contact (i.e. Infrared et al) means of temperature measurement both in a repair and engineering capacity. Also did calibration on various IR Bands including 'L-Band' which measures flame temperature (many fire departments have devices which use this technology).
I would like to know the NYFD's measurements of flame temperature, whether it was above or below the melting point for steel. Additionally, I would like to add that even if the temperature of the so-called fire was above that, that regardless that much steel would have acted as heat-sink & why doesn't steel melt in all jets?. I suspect thermite, why else would the fire burn for 3 months!

There is no way building 7 went down as a result of the airplanes. There is no way the buildings could free-fall into their own footprint like that unless it was controlled demolition.

I have been studying the reports that have come out ever since 9/11, and they don't match up to the official 9/11 Commission findings. The Thermite is a smoking gun in all this. Please allow an independent investigation to allow the victims' families integrity in the truth
The official story doesn't match. There are too many inconsistencies in the official story. And what about Building 7? Why was it taken down? The people know there was more to this than meets the eye. And the many people told not to fly that day? And the fact that there has never been a single building that collapsed under that type of fire until then. Wake up and smell the coffee!! We the people are not stupid!

Although currently working in the medical field, I did study engineering at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington. I have knowledge of thermodynamics and architectural design. I have questions about the facts of how the buildings were brought down at the World Trade Center in New York City. I support an independent investigation into the details of the collapse of the 3 buildings on Sept. 11, 2001.
The uniform collapse of the 2 World Trade Centers looked staged from the very beginning. My first thought was the buildings must have been engineered to collapse that way to minimize damage to surrounding buildings. When I found that was not the case it caused grave concerns that we are not being told the truth by the government. When I heard about the collapse of building 7 which was not even hit by an airplane it was apparent something is seriously wrong with the mainstream account of the events of what has commonly been called 9/11.
