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 have a BS degree in aerospace engineering from Boston University, and I hold a PE license in mechanical engineering. For 15 years I worked as a design engineer for a company that manufactures heavy industrial machinery and heat transfer equipment. For 7 years I've worked in project management and structural steel design for a steel fabricator. I'm currently working on obtaining a 2nd PE license in structural engineering.
Any individual with a minimal amount of mechanical and scientific aptitude along with very basic logical reasoning abilities can clearly see that the official 9/11 commission report's explanation for the collapse of building #7 is an outright blatant lie. The 9/11 commission report mentioned that building #7 collapsed due solely to office fires. How does an office fire make the core columns at the building's center disintegrate so that the penthouse on top of the building drops a slight second before the rest of the building, which then goes down at close to free fall speed? How can the combustible materials in an office fire have enough heat to keep tons of steel in it's molten state for many weeks after the building collapses? How did both Jane Stanley from the BBC and Aaron Brown of CNN know that building #7 had collapsed when we can see it standing right behind them as they give their report? 'You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.' - Abraham Lincoln. 'A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.' - Marcus Tullius, Cicero

BS Electrical Engineering
Saint Louis, MO
In December 2005 I received a B.S. Degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Missouri - Columbia. Since then, I have worked in the construction industry designing electrical systems and managing the installation of electrical systems.
The question is all about investigation techniques: Look at the facts of the WTC, specifically Tower 7, collapses: 1) Terrorists used explosives on WTC 1 in 1993. 2) Over 118 first responders reported hearing explosions before all 3 collapses, many said it sounded like the 'bang-bang-bang' you hear during a demolition. 3) We have video, photographic and audio evidence of explosions after the impact and before collapse. 4) Live news was reporting multiple explosions, and the possibility terrorists also planted explosives. 5) Barry Jennings, the Emergency Coordinator for the NY Housing Authority reported explosions in Tower 7. He also reported being knocked down by explosions prior to the collapse of the tower. 6) Molten steel AND concrete were found at Ground Zero 'remember, hydrocarbon fires do not burn hot enough to melt steel or concrete.'N.F.P.A. 921- 19.2.4 Exotic Accelerants states that molten steel and concrete could indicate the use of exotic accelerrants, specifically Thermite. 7) WTC 7 was the first concrete and steel high rise to collapse during a fire that had not been struck by an aircraft. It was determined not to be significantly damaged by the falling debris, and diesel fuel tanks DID NOT contribute significantly to the fire (according to NIST final report 2008). So, with all these indicators, would you test for exotic accelerants/explosive residue/Thermite? How could you confirm or rule out the possibility that terrorists planted explosives in addition to the aircraft hits? Why does N.I.S.T. REFUSE to this day to test for exotic accelerrants in the most heinous crime in U.S. history? With the first high rise building collapses in history, why would N.I.S.T. NOT test for accelerants? Especially, with so many indicators, one in which we have lost so many lives, so many Brothers, so many Freedoms, and our Economy. I have not found a single fire investigator who can give a reason other than they didn't want to find exotic accelerants or they were incompetent! Well, if it was incompetence, we can go back and still test. If you can't answer why, then please take the time to investigate. Browse our website, and please sign the petition. Our communities trust us. If we let them know this is not how professionals investigate, or how we treat our Brothers and Sisters who gave so much, they will listen.

Matt Blake has always felt like he was born with the ability to draw. But he abandoned the BFA pursuits at the University of Missouri-Columbia to get into what he thought would be a more lucrative pursuit of Graphic Design/Art Direction in the Advertising industry. Mr. Blake subscribes to a two-pronged approach to art at this point in time - he works in oils as well as this relatively modern art form, digital collages. This newer technology enables an artist to grab and arrange preconceived forms, ideas and symbols in such a layered fashion that the conveyed ideas can be increasingly complex. All man made things that exist at one point or another were once only ideas inside our human minds... Blake explains. We bring this reality into existence... it is this infinite Thought StructureTM, or Structure of ThoughtTM - a phrase coined by me-that I try to bring into physical being thru this fairly new digital art form. Matt believes humanity can strive to uncover what has always been-a more perfect, more benevolent, accepting, compassionate world-and art can and will show us the way. Matt concludes, It is my hope that my work here on planet earth will help lead that charge. Why not?
Mr. Blake, for the sake of humanity and his own soul, subscribes to standing up to the powers that be because he feels that absolute power corrupts absolutely. 9-11 is case in point - we are deliberately being deceived. He questions all authority in the tradition of Gandhi, JFK, Bill Hicks, George Carlin, MLK among others.

I am going to Knox College this Fall 09 and have been interested and truly saddened about the events and the deceptions engulfing 9/11. I am an adamant history and sociology buff and behind the scenes events I believe deserve an equal amount if not more attention than public history.
The American Reichstag symbolizes the American Century and the American rulers and ruled in a most extraordinarily concise way. 9/11 reflects the psychologically gilded age in which we live. It involves self-destruction for political and economic benefits, deceit through every medium possible at any cost to integrity, and a new age witch hunt equivalent to the red scare for conspiracy nuts who merely thrive passionately for truth and transparency. How sad it is that the term truthers is used in a derogatory manner. Lies to the public and to oneself is what will be most remembered about the modern American public. Tear

Just want the truth. The WTC7 especially. There are several differing theories out there most of which open the doors for the TRUTH which I am sure is not being told right now. The buildings would have held and the ones that we are building in the UK are not dissimilar and would take the impact. I am not here to instigate political change but to find out the truth behind the seemingly controlled way that the 3 buildings came down that sorry day.

I believe that enough questions, based on serious investigation and forensic evidence, have been raised to warrant a serious response from responsible leaders. Even to a lay person, it seems inconceivable that three modern skyscrapers could have collapsed, in the manner in which they did, from airplane strikes and fires alone.

As the towers went down it was obvious to me that they were 'taken down' like a professional demolition. The explosions on the lower floors prior to them collapsing is blatant. The evidence is overwhelming. No black boxes were found, but some paperwork from the plane survived? The nano explosive material, the cut steel beams, the K-9 dogs taken from the building the day before, the eye-witness accounts of explosions before the plane hit, etc... The official story is weak and hasn't responded to many of these issues. A plane hitting the top of a tower like that couldn't bring down the whole building, the way the building was observed to have come down. Shrapnel, or debris, from the WTC towers couldn't have possibly caused Building 7 to come down like it did.

I was pretty young when 9-11 happened. I think it was the day after my 16th or 17th birthday. All I knew then was this is way bigger than what they are telling us. I am eager to hear more.
Something doesn't seem right. How is it possible for the collapse to resemble a planned demolition. Especially when the towers were hit so close to the top. Maybe if they were hit near the base. And I have seen that movie LOOSE CHANGE and it gave me some insite but I know there is so much more to explore.

I have a Regents Diploma and I have been studying the events of 9/11 for over three year's!
My opinion is that the buildings all had explosives planted in them. Mainly because of the fact that they fell at nearly free fall speed. And because no skyscraper has fallen due to a fire anywhere at any time in history. Jet fuel can't melt steel. The government said that the fire caused the steel to weaken not melt, so why weeks after the attack at ground zero steel was still melting cherry red? Steel melts at 2800'F so what could of melted the steel for weeks after 9/11? And why is building seven not in the 9/11 report?

My bio is not important. I am just an advocate for science and applying the scientific method to the 911 investigation.
1. Destruction proceeds through the path of greatest resistance at nearly free-fall acceleration 2. Improbable symmetry of debris distribution 3. Extremely rapid onset of destruction 4. Over 100 first responders reported explosions and flashes 5. Multi-ton steel sections ejected laterally 600 ft at 60 mph 6. Mid-air pulverization of 90,000 tons of concrete & metal decking 7. Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds 8. 1200-foot-dia. debris field: no pancaked floors found 9. Isolated explosive ejections 20 ' 40 stories below demolition front 10. Total building destruction: dismemberment of steel frame 11. Several tons of molten metal found under all 3 high-rises 12. Evidence of thermite incendiaries found by FEMA in steel samples 13. Evidence of explosives found in dust samples 14. No precedent for steel-framed high-rise collapse due to fire

There is no way the World Trade Center Buildings were taken down by two airplanes and the insuring fires. Only if you are willing to check your brain at the door of the phony government investigation, and ignore all the facts and evidence, could you come to such fatally flawed conclusions. Sadly, as usual, our own government officials are in a state of denial. This is true, at even the local levels of government. Sadder still is that the American people are willing to tolerate such nonsense from their elected representatives. So Republican or Democrat, it is business as usual from Washington to our local government. There is no accountability because we the people are too self-absorbed to demand it.
