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 had 2 years of college level physics while studying to work in the printing and publishing industry, which I had worked in for 20 years. Although that's not a lot, it has provided me with enough knowledge of physics to follow and understand your presentations. I am currently self-employed as a music/graphics teacher in NYC.
I, like many others, didn't really concern myself too much with 9/11 until I discovered the truth about a year ago. I stumbled upon an A&E 9/11 Truth video about thermite that changed my world. After jumping into the research ocean with both feet, I firmly believe that the official explanation of what happened on 9/11 could not possibly be accurate. I believe, from looking at a lot of evidence (special thanks to your website), that all 3 WTC collapses were caused by controlled demolition. I believe the airplanes flown into WTC 1 & 2 were meant to be seen as a powerful enough catalyst to bring on the total collapse of the towers. Although flying an airplane into the side of a building can do some harm, I don't feel the heat or damage would be enough to bring the towers down the way they fell. As far as Building 7 goes, a straight-down, symmetrical collapse at free-fall speed into it's own footprint for no real apparent reason can, in my opinion, only mean one thing; they had the cream-of-the-crop demolition experts at their disposal.

graduated in Civil Engineering from the University of British Columbia in 1971. graduated with a masters degree in Environmental Design from the University of Calgary in 1981. worked since 1978 variously as a park planner, environmental planner, ski area planner, and community planner. also taught 'environmental sustainability' at a local college and building technology at BCIT, both in the Vancouver area.
First, verify the facts. Leave the speculation to later. Based on the photographic evidence of the collapses alone, there are a host of issues that cry out to be openly debated until there is a complete and consistent explanation of events. Without a truly independent commission, speculation will remain rampant and conspiracy theory(ies) flourish. It would be even less likely that those responsible will be brought to justice if we can't agree on what brought the buildings down.

WTC building 7 is what alerted me that 9/11 might be an inside job. It is virtually impossible for a building to collapse in that manner with nothing but a common fire over a few floors. Additionally, the fire purportedly came from the twin towers but the surrounding buildings met with no such improbable ignition. What cinched it for me was the smoldering molten metal that lasted for weeks after the attack, pointing at the probable use of thermate.

I received a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Iowa in 1996, then a M.S.E., also in Mechanical Engineering from the same university in 1998. After that I immediately began working for IBM as a development engineer in the Printing Systems Division. After 6 years at IBM, I left and starting working at Lexmark as a test engineer, where I still currently work.
For a while now, I've felt there was much more to the 9/11 story than what we've been told since the event. Watching the evidence from the video confirmed my suspicions. I feel that the folks who've put the video together have done a great job of shining a light of truth on the situation. In my opinion, this will usher in and strengthen the wave of conscious attention necessary to reveal the truth about what happened. I think the truth will hurt, but it will be monumentally important to the evolution of humanity.

My instant reaction, on seeing the Twin Towers destruction was: 'My God!! It is definitely a controlled demolition'. Only a few months ago, I had seen with my own eyes the controlled demolition of a multi-storied Fulton Skyscraper, at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.' I am now convinced that 9/11 was an insiders job and fear that one of its' consequences is to put the world's 1.25 billion Muslims on a collision course with the Western world.

From my experience, I am absolutely certain the WT7 could not have collapsed as it did without some form of explosive. With this in mind, the whole incident had to be staged. For this reason an independent investigation should be made. It could expose a significant amount of corruption we have in the world, which is leading to the demise of the world as we know it. The truth should be exposed and those who have done criminal acts should be brought to justice.

I specialize in modeling systems for the purpose of electronic control. I have a thorough enough understanding of physics to know that these buildings did not fall according to the official narrative.
Obviously demolitions. In the case of the twin towers I think there is the possibility of an incendiary, even beyond the military grade thermite, that has not yet been fully understood due to the enormous amounts of energy required to hurl iron girders at speed and pulverize materials.

Isaac Newton has made the only statement that should be needed to justify an independent investigation into 9/11. Ironically, this same statement made by Newton, which would later become Three Laws, guided civilization without fault for over 300 years until 9/11. These Laws faulted on that day not because of an error in Newton's calculations, but because civilization chose to ignore them. I cannot, however, as to do so would be to brazenly disregard the physics on which our society is built. The government's explanation and public's currently held view regarding the collapse of WTC 1, 2, and 7 does not fully take into account Newton's Three Laws of Motion. In every other aspect of our profession, Architects and Engineers have a civic duty to use these Laws to keep the public safe. 9/11 should be no exception.

WTC Building 7 is the only structure that is even relevant, considering it was hit by absolutely nothing on 9/11/2001. There was no airplane, drone strike, conventional missile from the Air Force or the Navy, massive debris from the collapsing Twin Towers, or any natural phenomena such as an earthquake, tornado, tidal wave, that came into contact with WTC 7. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the building was conveniently demolished by means of controlled demolition, as is clearly shown in any video clip recorded by non-governmental agencies. Not for a second will I accept that office fires brought down a 50-story, high-rise building in lower Manhattan, built of high-strength structural steel and reinforced concrete in a highly developed, Western nation that has some of the strictest building codes and demanding licensing processes for engineers and architects! So if one building exhibited such a collapse mechanism, how about the Twin Towers themselves? What about the Pentagon? The 9/11 Commission Report is filled with gaping holes and flaws and is blatantly biased, basically the equivalent of Fox News! It should not take this many architects and engineers, among other professionals, to realize that something was deliberately done on that world-changing day. If the scientific reasoning and engineering principals that we are made to believe in this report contributed to the collapse of the three structures in NYC, then I have no hope left for America, because apparently, critical thinking and asking questions and challenging authority are quickly becoming undemocratic and treasonous! 9/11 was an inside job and I demand an independent investigation by professionals, not war mongers and profiteers!

The sound & acoustical phenomenon that occurred prior to and during the destruction of all three buildings is in direct contradiction with any reports/explanations offered by NIST, the 9/11 Commission or our Government. It does however offer irrefutable proof founded in the most basic principals of physics that these were controlled demolitions. There is a complete lack of evidence to prove otherwise. Had these building been a part of any other occurrence outside of 9/11 no one would even consider another possible explanation other than controlled demolition. You couldn't ask for a stronger, more comprehensive and air tight case.

It is obvious that these buildings failed due to a controlled demolition. Even if steel could weaken from a jet fuel fire, it would not fail in that manner. WTC Building 7 would have not failed from a simple fire of office furniture. And if it did fail, it would not have a free fall collapse. A free fall collapse can only happen if the structural steel columns are compromised evenly and simultaneously.

Watching the taped strike of the 1st aircraft and the live coverage of the 2nd strike and the building collapses a short time later, it was obvious that there was something wrong with the falling of the buildings and the government reactions as reported. Then the fires in WTC 7 and it's collapse later in the day -- made no sense whatsoever.The facts of what I watched compared to what I knew scientifically and practically did not match. I felt it obvious from the first that it was just wrong.

I remember September 11, 2001 and being confused about why building 7 collapsed from a mere office fire. I had seen fire damage on a steel frame building before, but never a complete uniform collapse from an office fire. It seemed odd to me at the time, but the shock of the event distracted me from thinking about it further at the time.

The buildings dropped at free fall velocity. That is physically impossible unless the lower floors are knocked out before the upper floors of the dropping structure encounter them. The burning fuel could weaken the lower floors, but not cause their resistance to the falling structure to drop to zero. In the case of Building 7 there was no fuel to burn and fires in that building could not have burned in a pattern symetrical enough to allow the building drop in its own footprint, aside from the fact that the fires could not have been hot enough to bring the steel structure down.

I'm very interested to see a 3rd party report to investigate the scientific reason behind the collapse of these buildings.

I would like a thorough investigation in to the events that occurred on 9/11. There is not enough irrefutable evidence to suggest that the towers collapsed the way they did because of the events that are explained in the official reports that are available. The fact that multiple university studies and reports have differing theories and conclusions means we do not have enough concrete evidence to draw such conclusions.

The way the 2 buildings fell so orderly has disturbed me and caused me to think the performance may in actuality be more complex. I did not believe that the airplanes contained enough jet fuel to explode the way they did and then the remaining fuel could cause the collapse the way it did. The existence of the World Trade Tower 7 was news to me and I considered myself fairly well read and this was a surprise.

I am 100% convinced by the evidence that the towers were brought down by demolition only.

There is no way that jet fuel, burning in open air, melted steel beams and brought those buildings down.
