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.

Had some doubts about the twin towers collapse soon(several months)after 911 but did not pursue the matter. Heard from others stories of 'conspiracy' but got the feeling from relatives who lost loved ones that day that any discussion of an 'inside job' was hurtful for them. In total I 'went along' with official story - but always felt that it was strange that the 'top floors' plunged straight down so smoothly and didn't tumble off to side. The Truth in Focus conference was a welcome relief for me. To hear the analyses from others who know that physics does not take a 'day off'.

I am NCARB registered and a member of AIA (#39196676). I also will be renewing my membership with the ICC.
I believe the people have the right to know the truth. As a building designer, I want to know for certain that that building will not fail and cost people their lives. Being lied to about how buildings fail causes all kinds of problems. We want the truth. The architect who designed the WTC deserves to be justified by assuring us that the WTC was a sound and safe building. The only thing that could destroy that building would have been bombs, because they destroy everything, don't they? We should also ask who benefitted from this financially, politically, and the like. We need to prosecute those who are responsible so they don't do this again.

9/11 was an inside job. Building 7 was an obvious controlled demolition. In one of the videos of WTC 2 you can see a thermite charge ignite at the corner of the building. The building breaks and starts to fall from this corner about two minutes after the charge is ignited. .I have developed a Thermitic paint that is readily ignitable and will cut steel.

First of all, I feel a deep sadness for the families and the citizens of the world who lost their siblings, families and friends on 9/11. Regarding the official story, there is a high probability that it is not true. It's more like a well done movie script and scenario created by a politician with a big ego and a total disregard for other people.According to the Japanese architect who designed the twin towers, they were designed to withstand such a crisis or accident. Anyway, we can't understand how and why it happened without a new investigation. The picture will be blurred until that happens.

There is no way that 2 planes led to the collapse of WTC 1, 2 & 7 due to office fires. Jet fuel is mostly made up of kerosene and in maximum temperature reaches about 1800 F. The melting point of typical structural steel is around 2750 F. How does that make any scientific sense? But what could reach those temperatures is Thermite, which has a maximum temperature of no more than 4550 F. There is SO MUCH evidence that I can literally go on for hours. Why the City decided to remove all of the evidence to ship it overseas to China before a real investigation could occur? Why were there dozens, if not hundreds, of eye-witness reports seeing molten steel and yet NONE of those accounts were even mentioned in the 9/11 Commission report, let alone Building 7? Why has NIST refused to look for explosives even though according to the FDNY Code, as of 2001, that if there was steel and concrete melted and molded together, then you should check for explosives?

I was born in the summer of love' I became politically active in '88. I know from personal experience how corrupt the media is, how much it lies to the American people. The handful of people who chair and sit on the board of corporate media in America are guilty of treason and the THREE towers falling at free fall speed now prove it to anyone who understands elementary physics.

Concerned citizen who finds it disturbing that the official US government has not given the resources to provide a full and independent investigation, report and public disclosure of all of the facts. Wondering why it has been more than a decade, where is the start of the independent inquiry?
When examined, the 'official' explanation does not hold up as plausible. There is obviously much more than 'fire' and 'aircraft' that caused these buildings to collapse into their own footprint. It appears to be a skilled demolition. The people whose lives have been impacted, and all of the citizens on the planet deserve a full and comprehensive, unbiased investigation and publicly disclosed account. It is my understanding that the signatories of this petition demand it forthwith.

There is an historical and political motivation as well. It is true that evidence is physical, but it is not difficult to read the minds of the perpetrators. There is a wide variety of political and geopolitical reasons for the false flag. World War Three started on 9/11/01. Barry Jennings witnessed explosions on WTC7 before twin towers fell, this is evidence that WTC7 had explosives in it, waiting to be demolished, but the plane didn't hit the building. WTC7 gives enough evidence of the controlled demolition.

I have extreme doubt about the official version of the collapse of the buildings at ground zero, and also the collision at the pentegon and in PA. The 911 Commission investigation is akin to the Warren Commission and I believe as Americans that we need to uncover the reality behind the 9/11 events and force our government and even perhaps our justice system to do a thorough, scientific and honest evaluation and then hold responsible whomever rises from the murky depths.

I do not have any background in technical education or technical experience. I do however have eyes in my head and reason in my brain. I have looked at countless you tube videos of controlled demolition and have come to the conclusion that what I see in the you tube videos and what I have seen on that horrific day (9/11/2001) looks similar in nature. There are too many experts in the technical field all across the world that are saying the same thing...These buildings were demolished...point blank.
I believe it's best said in the documentary, We are doing a disservice to the victims and their family's if we do not re-open an INDEPENDENT investigation into the collapse of all 3 buildings. They, as well as all Americans, deserve the truth. That's what being American is all about. The pursuit of TRUTH, JUSTICE, & LIBERTY for ALL. Belief systems can be wrong at times. Science is 100% right all the time.

I don't know what happened, but I feel what we've all been told doesn't add up somehow. It amazed me that such huge, solidly constructed buildings fell so quickly. I have researched years ago, and heard that the sounds of bombs, and or firecrackers exploding before the plane hit were heard. It feels fishy to me.

Right after 9/11 there was many months of delay to retaliate against a terrorist attack. Then the shock and awe? Way too long a time period. That was an act of war and should have been treated as such but with time the Middle East had plenty of time to hide whatever (weapons of mass destruction). This was a huge flag for me. Right after Bill Clinton came in is when I started to see things in a new light. I could go on and on but this sheds light on how common people are seeing things.

I have been designing and building homes and other buildings for 30 years. My experience ranges from building timber framed homes and barns to designing manufacturing facilities and high-end resorts. I understand construction techniques, general engineering principles, and the structural/material integrity of buildings. I am not licensed but have worked for several architectural firms and design/builders, and currently work for myself.
Having put many buildings together as well as taken many apart, I never have believed the official explanation for the collapse of the Twin Towers and Building 7. The precedents do not exist which would explain the structural failures of all three buildings. The so-called science of the official story is an insult to my intelligence and extralogical to my experience.

Living on Sussex Street in Jersey City at the time, it felt like a personal attack. The Towers seemed like they were in our backyard. Sussex Street was the triage site for people escaping the mess of lower Manhattan that day. Anyhow, I volunteered at the site as an 'iron worker' on the bucket brigade for a few days. Every so often - maybe once every hour or two - the fire chief would make an announcement that one of the nearby buildings 'might be' or 'is' coming down. Everyone ran off the rubble to relative safety. It was dark, smokey and chaotic. At the time I assumed someone was physically observing the buildings for signs of trouble, but false reports of 'pulling' it better explain it. Someone must be in the know. Maybe one day your organization will have enough members to anti up enough money to bribe someone to produce evidence.

It is painfully obvious when comparing other intentionally demolished buildings to the collapse of Building 7 that there is virtually no difference. It defies the laws of physics for a building to fall through the path of most resistance, which is what Building 7 did (straight down). The only way this could happen if all of the structural supports collapsed at once, only possible if intentional.

Viewing the collapse of the Towers on a small television in a motorhome, I could not believe my eyes that such a thing were possible. As a guest during a visit to NYC in the early 80's, I had dined in the restaurant Windows on the World. I recall being well impressed by the architecture of the Trade Center towers. That they could so completely and uniformly come down after impacts by planes has never seemed right to me. I had not heard of Building 7 until recently. The video documentation of that collapse indicates to me that it was a well-executed controlled demolition. Like most Americans, I was caught in the horror of 9/11/01, and the homogenizing effect it had on the public will. That effect has worn off. Now I want answers.

Sadly we'll probably never know the real truth about this atrocity but we owe it to ourselves, and, more importantly, to those that paid the ultimate price, means that an independent investigation is paramount.
