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.

Society needs to know if large fires alone could have been enough to bring down the WTC buildings. Was impact damage a necessary factor? Further research into the cause of the 9/11 collapses can be applied to improve the structural safety of existing or future skyscrapers.

WTC tower 1, 2 and 7 could not have collapsed by fires the way we saw without extra auxiliaries as ieg. explosives. NIST could not have explained the collapses at all and it has left the official explanations to private persons who have failed too. The last attempt was done by Dr. Seffen from Cambridge University (UK) (http://www.exodus2006.com/911seffen.htm), but his paper can be debunked to be false.

It is inconceivable that the World Trade Center buildings collapsed as they did because of fires as the public has been led to believe. This is not just an opinion, but a very well educated guess. Although I studied electrical engineering, Georgia Tech--as most engineering universities--required that I take courses in physics, statics, dynamics, thermodynamics.

This situation is very similar to the events that occur with Dr. Bennet Omalu and his discovery of CTE, a progressive degenerative disease of the brain found in athletes (and others) with a history of repetitive brain trauma. The NFL deny his scientific evidence and called him un-American. Read his story, watch the movie 'Concussion' and you will see the depth organisations will go to cover the truth. If this can happen with football, why can it not happen with 9/11?

I was scheduled on a flight to Chicago for a meeting with other Network Associates engineers when my wife was watching the collapse of building 2 on September 11, 2001. I was stunned and felt that there was something wrong with the picture. A few years later I saw a video of the collapse of building 7 and recognized immediately that it was a planned demolition. At that time, I became truly outraged at the lies that were being told. As I watched the video, I realized that 9/11 was probably a 'false flag' attack. All my friends thought and still think I am crazy. Signing this petition is important to me in my role as a teacher of Buddhist Meditation in the tradition of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. We must have the truth be told so that our confidence in the government can be restored.

It was a controlled demolition. Building 7 wasn't even badly on fire before collapsing and BBC reported that it had collapsed 20 minutes before it actually happened. The official version just doesn't add up.

The evidence is too clear that the buildings had to fall by a controlled demolition. There are too many inconsistencies in the official explanation and the video footage. Building 7 is the absolute clincher. The molten metal defies any other explanation.

I am a structural engineer who as a young engineer working for McLaren Engineering Group out of West Nyack, NY, visited and helped with the demolition at the World Trade Center site. I later went on to earn my PE and continued to work on building design and other smaller structural engineering jobs including structures in the entertainment industry and marine engineering. My license is temporarily inactive for last few years, as I am staying home with 3 small children.
If evidence is surfacing that raises new questions about the events of 9/11, I support uncovering the true motives of the attack and any related responsible parties that had a part in planning the destruction of the World Trade Center. There are too many unanswered questions that are outstanding and are contrary to what has been presented to the public as factual.

I could not believe that planes hitting the twin towers would cause their total collapse. Even more astounding was how several small fires caused the collapse of the heavy steel frame of WTC 7. No one has ever given me a clear explanation of why a CNN reporter stated that Building 7 had collapsed, when one could see it still standing in the background, only to see it collapse 1 hour later. I saw everything that day, 9-11-01, on live TV.

Recognizing that the twin towers and WTC7 were instances of controlled demolition is not the hard part. The hard part is overcoming the emotional hurdle that our government betrayed us. I went into shock and had to grieve when I accepted this. As a country we need to face this anger and grief if we are to come to terms with ourselves and leave a legacy we can reconcile with.

I saw it on TV - the second tower hit live. I immediately commented to other science professionals in the room the planes must have carried bombs that generated super intense heat - it was no 'gravity fall' or airplane fuel fire that punched the towers straight down like they were built with 0 eccentricity!!! But today, 9/9/16 I received my first AE for Truth flyer. I had no idea other professionals had so gathered to document what the trained eye knew to be true. Your flyer gave me the link I knew had to exist but had no evidence of - thermite!!!!

It's taken a long time for me to come to terms with the real possibility that the true causes of the WTC collapses on 9/11 were obscured from the general public and perhaps much worse. I've read the summary arguments based on the physics of the collapses and found them potentially valid. I would like to read the actual studies. It will take a while to understand the modelling enough to critique it, but if people like myself don't take it upon themselves, who will? We must know the truth, because what's left of our democracy depends on it.

The case of 9/11/2001 is far too significant let go with so many, and a growing number of, unanswered questions. It is unfathomable that further investigations are not considered by congress; especially in view of the short duration, time boxed 9/11 commission investigation. Is this event not important enough for a deeper look? I think a permanent investigation is even merited.

Though I've initially learned about the inexplicable circumstances from documentary videos like 'Loose Change', AE911Truth.org (its reports and documentaries) has shown the irrefutable evidence that the WTC towers have been brought down by controled demolition.This conclusion implies a premeditated covert operation, which should therefore be thoroughly investigated, and any and all involved should be brought to justice. This is essential and of the highest urgency, because the 9/11 attrocities have been the pretext to start the perpetual wars the USA continues to wage in order to, according to my opinion, establish a global empire. Bringing to justice the perpetrators of these crimes is essential to reestablish the democratic republic the USA used to be.

I am a retired Major General, Army National Guard, and I have 38 years of work as a mechanical engineer with the department of Navy in the design of weapons, components, and transportation means. Lifting and handling was the basis for my experience in strength of materials and the analysis of failure therein. I'm degreed as a mechanical engineer, Louisiana Tech, 1962.
I have read numerous reports containing both calculations and science as well as opinions, watched numerous videos of interviews with experts, watched the collapse of all buildings more times than I can accurately state and there are many factors which simply do not fit the scenario. What I have read of the residual chemical evidence pointing to materials for which there is no logical explanation, other than that an explosives expert with unique access to materials was involved. Most importantly, perhaps, is the indisputable fact that all three buildings fell as in a controlled demolitions scenario. The fuel from the planes did not have enough energy to transfer to the massive central support beams and cause structural failure. Therefore, something else had to be in play to cause what we saw. Then in Building 7, it had no damage from a plane strike. What would have caused it to fall shortly after the owner's decision to 'pull it'? My view is that this is a false flag operation and the USA is up to it's eyeballs in it. I have not continuously followed this crime because it was clear from the beginning that it was being swept under the rug, but there were some very resourceful engineers who studied the rate of acceleration of the fall of the two towers and determined that there was insignificant deviation from free fall. Meaning that the towers did not take a detour and crash their way down one floor at a time, overcoming the strength of each floor, which equates to time, thus loosing that straight-line acceleration we would expect unless a number of floors were assisted by controlled demolition. And what about all that molten steel that was running like a small stream in the basement with traces of thermite in it?

As a Engineer I know that the right amount of energy would have been needed to cause the towers to fall at the speed and symmetry in which they fell on 9/11/01. As I learned in school and in the industry about Material Science that for the towers to fall, the steel in the towers needed to reach their yielding load before reaching their tensile capacity and then they could finally fail..I hope that a new investigation addresses these basic concepts!

I have for many years not been convinced that the cause of collapse of all three trade centers in New York, nor the wreckage sites at the Pentagon & Pennsylvania, are the result of impact by commercial aircraft. I fully believe the overwhelming evidence contradicts the official narrative offered in the 9/11 official report, and I wish to show my support in demanding a non-biased, independent investigation as to the probable causes of destruction, as the people of the USA, and the world, deserve to know.

WTC7 could not come down due to small fires and collateral damage as implied by the official report. This collapse was due to controlled demolition. This is the only way to weaken the support columns throughout the building to bring it to the ground the way it did.

As documented by this group, never in the history of steel framed skyscrapers since 1908 has a single one of them failed from fire damage, other than the supposed fire imposed collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7. A number of researchers have well documented horrific fires in steel buildings, none of which failed and all were reconditioned and still in use. It was patently obvious as I watched the original footage from Vienna, Austria that these were commercial implosions. Building Seven housed CIA and other federal agencies, all of which would have had to have known and approved of plans and capability to implode the buildings months in advance. The America public deserves to know the truth.

Obvious controlled demolition. You don't see it or allow the possibility because you can't simply believe that your government could be complicit in killing your own people for political and war purpose. Even though killing millions of lives around the world, as well as our own service people since WWII has been no problem. Many wars started with false flags and coordinated lies from the power structure.

This chapter also founded the AABE Energy Challenge which was a campus wide initiative open to all the students. As president, he collaborated with the NYU Suitability Department to fund the challenge and secured $36,000 in cash prizes. Previously, Ramon worked as an Engineering Aide at Consolidated Edison's Brooklyn office in conjunction with being a full time student.
This situation is very similar to the events that occur with Dr. Bennet Omalu and his discovery of CTE, a progressive degenerative disease of the brain found in athletes (and others) with a history of repetitive brain trauma. The NFL deny his scientific evidence and called him un-American. Read his story, watch the movie 'Concussion' and you will see the depth organisations will go to cover the truth. If this can happen with football, why can it not happen with 9/11?

I have researched this from many angles, listening to people on the ground, emergency staff (Police, Firemen, etc.), looking at suspicious things from the whole day 9/11/2001! NORAD was never sent out, the black boxes were never found from any airplanes, the close to free fall implosion, etc.. Even my young son when seeing the buildings implode or in demolition said 'Dad the cement+buildings turned to powder!!

B-1B Bomber flight test engineer from 1976 to 1980.
No commercial airplane (or military) could possible bring down one of the twin towers. Any such aircraft would be shredded by the collision, not poke its nose out the other side. Further, there would be aircraft parts everywhere if it had been aircraft that impacted the towers. The impacting vehicle had to have been something more along the lines of a bunker buster cruise missile, which would also not bring down the building. Also, even the best pilots in the B-1 test program would have a tough time hitting the towers at that speed. Again, the precision needed could be realized using a cruise missile.
