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.

My initial reaction to the 9/11 'attacks' was in line with what the mass media fed us and the official reports that finally emerged about the cause of the collapse of the twin towers.Years later upon viewing a AE911truth video about the unusual collapse of WTC 7 my curiosity and suspicions were whetted and I sought more information. Since that date to this, the evidence out there of controlled demolition of the towers is so glaringly obvious that it begs disbelief that the 9/11 Commission Report still stands as the official account and there still lacks the political will to conduct a proper scientific and forensic investigation.

NIST has admitted that WTC7 fell at free fall acceleration for 2,25 seconds. That means that about 8 floors of metal and concrete were removed instantaneously and symmetrically. Only explosive demolition could have brought about such a collapse. FEMA and NIST have been unable to explain the mechanism by which WTC1 and WTC2 have collapsed (the 'pancake theory' set forth by FEMA has been denied by NIST). Again, the only possible explanation for the collapse of these two buildings is by explosive demolition.

I am a general studies graduate from Indiana University. I am a caregiver for the elderly and a business owner. I have helped to build many structures and understand what it takes to have a solid foundation for such a large building.
I feel that the explosions in Building 1 and 2 are compelling enough to warrant further investigation. Building 7 appears to be that of controlled demolition. The explosions and probable controlled demolition of building seven are enough to warrant further investigation so as to provide America's citizens with much needed answers.

I saw what appeared to be calculated explosions occur several floors below the collapsing sections of the towers. There are not any visible concrete chunks of any size seen around ground zero. And there are pieces of steel beams lodged in buildings over 600 feet away! WTF!!!

Thank you for bringing this to the public's attention. I am shocked, but the truth about the explosions in the World Trade Center buildings is now clear. I agree that it is important that an in-depth investigation be done and I can't understand why our government would want anything less than a full investigation to learn the truth and to change security and safety practices in our American buildings.

After visiting a friend near Nyack, I was on a bus heading into NYC on 9/11 when commuters began receiving phone calls about a terrorist attack; our bus turned around at the last opportunity before the Lincoln Tunnel. The rush to justify an unnecessary war made the official 9/11 story suspect. Everything presented by AE911Truth makes sense and a competent investigation should definitely be done.

I am convinved that 911 is an inside job!! I am going to be a part of the team that PROVES IT!! That is why I just joined this site, because THIS IS the team who WILL PROVE IT!!! I will help this team with whatever I can, whenever I can!!
There is absolutely NO WAY that WT1, WT2 & WT7 collapsed solely due to the combined plane strikes & the fires caused by the aviation fuel! Those towers WT1 & WT2 were exceptionally strong! Leslie Robertson & his team made sure of that! There is no such thing as a coincidence! Too many things had to happen in an organised sequence, for these towers to collapse, it is impossible that thry all came together at that time & in the manner that transpired. The 911 Comission Report Confirmed that FACT!

On Sept 11, 2001 as I watched the first tower fall live on TV, my first thought was that looks like a demolition. I do not know why that was my first thought as I do not have any experience or knowledge of engineering or demolitions. I have done a lot of research on 9/11 and have come to believe that the official version of the happenings associated with 9/11 is not the truth. I want our elected officials now in office to have a new and independent investigation of 9/11 so that the citizens of the US can finally learn the truth. The families of the victims and all American citizens deserve to know the truth.

I'm deeply disturbed by the self confessed inadequacies of the 9/11 Commission (Thomas Keene and Lee Hamilton), and the complete lack of respect that has been displayed towards peer reviewed science (Dr. Niels Harrit and Dr. Steven E. Jones). Nothing short of an independent, comprehensive, and transparent investigation, with the power to subpoena will be credible, and will honor the memory's of the victims.

There are too many unanswered questions and now some incontrovertible evidence which directly contradict the NIST official report. A full-scale independent investigation is not only warranted, but public officials have a moral obligation and a duty to the American public of telling the truth, whatever those truths might be.

The obfuscation and obvious suppression of scientific data surrounding the event of 9/11 fuel my activism.

It has nothing to do with 'respecting' the victims - we are ALL victims in this and I am glad SOMEONE is digging for the truth.

I find it impossible to believe that these three buildings all came down according to the Official Story. I have done some design work, and I know for a fact that there are huge increases made to strengthen steel structures above and beyond what is needed. Then there is the pancake theory of the way in which the floors collapsed at free fall speeds. Incompetent and impossible. This does not even begin to address Building 7. All things considered, the entire group of events leading up to, including, and after the impact of the two airplanes on the World Trade Center needs to be completely re-evaluated.

I was in the British army when 9/11 happened on a training exercise in Canada .
I have been watching all of the evidence that has been building up online and can see that the three buildings should not have fell the way in which they did especially in such a short amount of time. From what I have seen it also looks like explosives were used.
