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.

There is no way a plane or fire would cause the building to collapse, it must have been detonated. Steel melts at an extremely high temperature, and so the fire could not have cause the steel infrastructure of the building to collapse. The only way to is explode a bomb.

I worked for 20 years as a Private Investigator in London, England and I know what I see when I see it. Skyscrapers do not self-destruct in a cloud of pulverized concrete dust. EXPLOSIVES are needed.
Steel girders do not fall down and disappear by themselves. Especially at free-fall speed. They might fall down and disappear if someone who had the keys to the building allowed a demolition team access during the night so they could plant Thermite that would melt them at the same time as explosive charges were ignited.

Sooke, BC, Canada
Occupation: Naval Architect
I served as a junior student apprenticeship with HW Belfast (where the Titanic was built!) At lunch time I sometimes climbed up the old rusting gantries to get a good view of Belfast harbor and to take photographs of the CANBERRA at its fitting-out location. I studied Naval Architecture at the Belfast Technical college and at Poplar Technical College London, England. I worked for one year as a petrochemical piping draughtsman for Procon Great Britain Ltd, an American Company. I joined a small shipyard, on the river Thames, as Assistant to the Yard Manage for W.R. Cunis Limited, producing design drawings and inspection of subbed out work, welding inspection, tolerance inspection, vessel damage inspection, cost estimating, rudder calculations etc. I emigrated to Canada via the EMPRESS OF CANADA JULY 1967 to commence work in BC with Robert Allen LTD. Naval Architect. I worked for the Federal Government for approximately thirteen (13) years as a Marine inspector (TI7) for Transport Canada I have witnessed several vessel fires. One of the fires was on a steel hulled old - retiring- BC Ferry, which, in association with a Lloyds' Surveyor, we verified it safe to travel to Mexico from Vancouver BC. I inspected the damage for Transport Canada. The fire commenced from a welders spark. The spark ignited a large pile of donated clothing that was situated under a hydraulic hose line from a header tank. The header-tank then dumped the oil on the burning clothing. The paint was burned off the bulkhead and part of the deck buckled some-what. Outboard of the damaged area the deck was undamaged and restricted the expansion of the steel. The heated steel had no choice but to buckle, as it was being held captive by the intact cold steel. The fire did not burn holes in the deck or bulkhead!
I live in Canada and feel that if the local Loggers were asked to climb up all trees and cut off each tree at 10 feet intervals commencing at the top, to satisfy a request for 10 ft length of logs, that they would tell the supervisor to go and take a hike! Similarly no TERRORIST would waste, (1.) Time. (2.) Waste Cutting Charges; to bring a tower such as WTC towers #1, #2, #3 vertically down, almost, into its own foot print. To cause maximum damage a terrorist would copy the usual method of logging, i.e. take out the equivalent to a wedge shape out of the bottom of the towers, core steel members, causing them to fall almost intact sideways in the direction that would cause them to strike other buildings and block roads. The presence of Thermite and Nano-thermite has been found in the WTC (World Trade Center) dust. Therefore, explosive and thermal cutting charges were used to bring down the WTC. From high school physics, one may remember the simple demonstration of a transparent glass tube, about six (6) feet long, sealed at each end by a small circular piece of glass. The tube, being about two and a half inches in diameter, and containing three objects, a small coin, a feather, and a small lead ball. The question put to the students being, If I hold this tube vertically so that the feather, lead ball and coin are resting on the bottom and suddenly invert the tube by rotating the tube in such a manner that the three objects remain at the end, by centrifugal force, and stop with the objects in the tube in a vertical upright position, which object will fall and hit the bottom first? Most students will say that the lead ball would hit the bottom first (reason lead is heavy, very dense, has a lot of mass for its size). What actually takes place is that all three objects, feather, coin, and lead ball, strike the bottom end of the tube at the same time. The students are amazed! The teacher then explains that he had omitted to tell them that the air had been removed from the tube Because of lack of air inside the tube (a vacuum having been applied to the inside of the tube) all objects fall at the same speed due to Earths gravity. The demonstration would usually be followed by a story of Sir Isaac Newton and the apple plus more details on gravity. From the available videos of all three WTC towers they fell at near free fall speed i.e. To explain free fall, if you jumped off say tower #7, without a parachute, at the same time as the cutting charges were set off, you would hit the ground at the same time as the top of the tower! 6.5 seconds being the approximate near free fall time. In Dr. Steven Jones paper, there is a photograph of the top of, from memory, WTC tower #2, rotating sideways. Have you ever seen a tree being cut down, falling with rotation sideways? Does the tree suddenly break up into say two foot sections as it rotates? Why then would the top of WCT tower#2 not continue to rotate in one piece until clear of the lower section? You may look at the videos on the internet or youtube and see what took place. Note: ''With the top section of the building removed, loosely hinged, a partial downward force would be applied to one edge of the lower portion of WTC #2. The only fire in the building was caused by an aircraft and by this time all of the fuel had burned up. There was no fire in the lower portion of the building so, with the top of the building removed, the core steel structure would have experienced a reduced load and would not have collapsed without the use of demolition cutting charges. I have attempted to keep my analysis super simple so that your young children can understand what has been written.

I received my B Arch degree from the Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture (IVSAA) in Karachi, Pakistan in 2001. I worked for about a year at a reputable firm before establishing my own practice by the name of 'Apostrophe' in Karachi. I am a consulting editor for Pakistan's pioneer architectural journal, Architimes, and magazine, A+I and have been writing architectural reviews for several years. This year, I have been invited as a member of the Jury at the World Architecture Festival (WAF) in Barcelona, Spain. I recently did my Masters in Construction and Real Estate Management (ConREM) from HTW, Berlin, Germany (enrollment number s0523652).
I have watched the videos of the collapse of the WTC towers several times and they were quite obviously controlled demolitions. Even if some argument (such as jet fuel) is offered for the collapse of the twin towers, no such argument can be entertained for Building 7, which was never hit.

On 9/11 I took a short cut to where I would have been doing the make up for a Fashion Week show. When I got off the subway, the North Tower had been hit. All those around me kept saying it was an accident & a small plane that had hit. A few minutes later, I heard a thunderous noise coming from the NW. I looked to the Hudson & saw the second aircraft. I was standing on the North side of the South Tower. The aircraft hit high above my head. I didn't run but attempted to dodge all that was raining down. During this time, all I remember was jumping out of my skin numerous times from massive explosions which went off in both the North & South Towers causing even more debris. It wasn't until I began researching what happened that day, as the media never talked about anything I saw, including what I heard & smelled, that I finally found out the truth. The actions of not only our government but those around the world is chiefly due to the official 9/11 tale that continues to haunt me and will until the truth is revealed to all.
I was at the North side of the South Tower when I watched the second aircraft fly down the Hudson and crash into the South Tower directly above my head. Unlike most, I didn't run, I had gone into shock & did my best to dodge all that was raining down upon me. What I saw, heard, smelled, was never talked about within our media. There were many very loud explosions which made me jump out of my skin & after each, more debris, body parts, etc. came raining down upon me. I have no recollection of how long I was there, nor how I got to the ferry to New Jersey. But right as I was getting on the ferry, the South Tower collapsed. I surely would have been dead. After moving back to California in 10 days, I received EMDR treatments for my PTSD, I began researching the truth of all I experienced that day because all the media accounts contradicted everything I know I saw, heard, smelled, etc. This opened a Pandora's box so massive & unending that I continue to research to this day. The health problems I have continued to have since then are many. The CDC tested me & said I was fine. I went to be tested independently with the results showing positive for 5 very toxic substances that are found in bombs, not buildings. Those who heard, saw & experienced the bombs going off please come forward so we can join together as a force to bring about justice & the truth of what honestly happened that day.

Portland State College (Univ.) out of High School in 1964, Pre Architecture Program. Continued at University of Oregon 1966-68, with time spent in the U.S. Army in Vietnam 68-69, then back to U of O in 70-72 obtaining a Bachelor of Architecture. Three year apprenticeship working mostly on school buildings and branch banks. Became licensed in Oregon 1976. After experiencing a couple Architectural offices, I formed a partnership with an individual I served my apprenticeship under and the office survived for 28 years. The last 26 years we worked for mainly for only two clients. We did pubs and breweries, hotels, golf ranges, and then more pubs, hotels and golf resort related facilities. A note here: All these hotels and pubs are unique and very special here in the PNW.
I watched the 911 event on television. Although I didn't see the first airplane strike the first tower, I did watch the second plane strike the second tower and then all the other events at the Pentagon. I wasn't aware of Bldg. 7 until later. At the time, I couldn't believe what I saw, and knowing what I know about steel building structures and airplane airframes and skins, I knew that the building shredded the plane like French fries and as to the weight of the plane, I knew that that would not be a problem. So when the building came down I was speechless. I think I said, 'No, that can't happen', but it did. When I became aware of Building 7, I joined this group of A & E''s. Building 7 came down in a controlled demolishing fashion, it was so obvious. I have been watching Richard Gage's efforts and research ever since. Most of my piers don't want to get involved and I don't understand that, other than it is high stress and they already exist in a high stress industry. High stress such as this event s not healthy, most just want to move on. I understand that but continue to send letters to my Senators to review information on 911 Truth's web page. Did it last week stressing the research and data collected on Building 7 in an effort to get NIST to do the right thing.

It is impossible for the highly asymmetric damage caused by the second plane hitting WTC 2 to result in the completely symmetrical collapse of that building. The incredibly symmetrical implosion of WTC 7 into its own footprint confirms that controlled demolition was involved. This could only be done well in advance of 9/11/2001, and only with the full knowledge of the security firms in control of the WTC site. It could not have been perpetrated by a ragtag group of desert desperadoes.

As a former firefighter, in my research there has never been a reinforced steel building that has collapsed due to fire. The collapse of WTC Buildings with a free fall speed of gravity defies the physics of building collapse due to weakening of structural elements. WTC 7 collapse cannot be related to WTC 1 and 2 collapses... there is absolutely no way any physics can support that. WTC 7 followed the book on structural demolition.

I believe there are many more like me. People who vividly recall watching those beautiful buildings fall on live television. When it happened, an eerie sense of disbelief entered our experience. Yes, it was shocking, but something deeper was occurring. I believe it has to do with the disparity between what we were watching and some basic laws of kinematics that have been drilled into our minds from rigorous study combined with everyday experience. Those buildings fell like soda cans being crushed under a heel - except there was no giant above bearing down upon them. The only other possibility was a global, complete, symmetric and near instantaneous degradation of the structural integrity of each of the three buildings. The 911 commission report written by NIST is pure folly - not in what reports, but it what it DOESN'T report. I urge everyone to examine the official explanation with the same scrutiny that you use to examine all other theories.

Just because an individual is informed, doesn't make them a wacko. As a reasonable and prudent man/woman, begin with WTC #7 and examine the evidence. Use your due diligence. Just start and seek the truth. But start, for as a professional engineer, I hold paramount the welfare and safety of the general public. Their welfare and safety begins with the truth.

All aspects of the collapse of the skyscrapers on 9/11 fit perfectly with controlled demolition. The official report statement, that the skyscrapers collapsed due to the impact of the planes or falling debris, does not make sense from a technical point of view. It does not line up with the character of the collapse, the reports of people being able to descend past the impacted floors during the fires, and multiple corresponding witness reports of molten steel and secondary explosions, including the explosion on the ground floor before the first plane hit the first tower. Given the enormous undesired consequences of the skyscraper destruction and of 9/11 in general, it is crucial that the case of 9/11 is reopened in an impartial and independent investigation.

On 9/11 I was only 12. Some years later I started to get interested about what happened in that day and I was really stricken about the amount of things, of coincidence that didn't match; in particular WTC7, a high rise building that no one told us it collapsed that day. Then I graduated; I started to see all this weird things with a scientific point of view and now I'm sure beyond resonable doubt that WTC7 did not collapse because of fire, it's been torn down with explosives. Alternately, we should forget everything we study in the University and re-write the Physics, the Building Science, the Mechanics and so on!!!

Later got a BS in Mech E from Seattle University, then spent 4 years with Boeing as a Liaison engineer in the Wing Responsibility Center. Finally worked 16 years with US Navy as a Nuclear/Radiological engineer.
The NIST scenarios are not believable. The WTC 1 collapse is equivalent to crushing two US Nimitz class nuclear carriers in 10 seconds, given that they have about the same amount of structural steel. It's simply not possible. The NIST explanation for the WTC7 collapse is even more ludicrous. Their model shows massive failure at the back of the building, but somehow that doesn't distort the glass windows on the front of the building. I used Working Model 2D to model the effects of the conservation of momentum on WTC1. It showed that the upper stories would be significantly slowed by impact with the lower stories, adding several seconds to a free fall collapse, which takes it outside of the actual collapse time. Ergo, the lower floors were already falling when they were hit by the upper floors. Frankly, I'm extremely disappointed by the almost total lack of curiosity displayed by most of my working colleagues over the years. Lots of really smart guys who lacked the courage to ask a few rather obvious questions.

As an engineering student I took civil and electrical engineering classes and polymers and material where we learned about material strength. I have to question how building 7 (and even tower 1 and 2) fell without any resistance. Building 7 was not hit at all. I question too the fact that there was not a residue of the airplanes. It is impossible; something has to be found. I feel Americans need a complete investigation of what really happened. I cried for days during 9/11. I held my children so tight and was afraid to let them go.I was in NYC during 9/11 and I smelled the dead bodies; it was a smell that I still smell when I think about that day.

Then in 2003, he joined Democracywatch, a National NGO working to strengthen the Democratic institutes and values in Bangladesh. Ever since, he has been looking after the IT infrastructure and became an integral part of its management. During Jan 2012 to August 2016 he was the Director-Program of Democracywatch. He has more than sixteen years experience of managing youth related projects with various International and National Organizations. He designed and facilitated ICT related sessions for Post Graduate Diploma in Journalism (PGDJ) course students of Press Institute of Bangladesh (PIB), Dhaka since 2009. He also facilitated and anchored 10 live sessions on 'Computer Fundamentals and IT Literacy' on DeshTV ('Durpath' a distance learning program) in 2010. He is a member of Rotary Club of Ramna (RI District 3281, Bangladesh), Lifetime Blood Donor of Quantum Foundation. Minhaj is a keen traveler and spent his childhood in Saudi Arabia and UAE. As a development activist he believes that all alone, change can't be ensured and support of others is essential to make it happen.
I can still remember, on 9/11/01 at 9pm BST, I just ended an evening IT session and immediately came to know about the horrific incident through internet and media. Since then, I grew interested to know more on the motive and aftermath. Why, who, casualties, business interests... these all came in my mind. 9/11 is still an unsolved mystery in modern civilization. It could have been to legitimize the attack on Afghanistan, as the country holds enormous stock of Lithium.

The science and engineering evidence and analysis does not support the political narrative, or the official NIST report. There are many flaws in the official USA case: no proper independent forensic scientific investigation; on site evidence tampered with; gross political interference and obstruction of justice; and professional expertise ignored by USA officials.

I attended Penn State University from 2012 through 2016 where I studied Biological / Agricultural engineering with a focus on off-road mobile equipment. After obtaining my Bachelor of Science I began work as a project engineer at a global manufacturer of automation and motion control equipment overseeing the design and development of hydraulic valves. I spent approx 1.5 years in this role. My current position is a design engineer at a global manufacturer of off road and construction equipment. My role is again focused on fluid power and their integration into the vehicle systems. My professional role regularly involves traditional mechanical analysis of stress, fatigue and buckling of steel and aluminum components.
The physical evidence of the WTC destruction clearly discredits the official story of the US federal government. The list of this evidence is substantial but the following items in particular demand a new investigation into the crime: the free fall collapse of WTC 7, the discovery of active thermitic material in the dust, the presence of molten steel and concrete on site, and the atmospheric gasses indicating the use of explosives.

There is increasing engineering evidence becoming available, that shows beyond doubt, that the NIST reports in Building 7 and Twin Tower collapses are unsound. I feel we engineers should support others who are also campaigning to find the truth, and help them to present the most solid evidence.

I'm an EE, Lamar University 1988. Moved to Vienna Austria in the early 90's. I've run my own consulting firm since 1994. We make software systems for industrial clients, specializing in refinery finished product blending advanced process control and optimization, as well as power generation. We perform consulting services for the same industry. I don't work in construction (although I did back in the US), but the physics and math presented to refute the claims of NIST are simple enough for me to understand.
I don't know what happened, but having read quite a bit, and watched quite a few videos, it is clear that the official story is not true. We need a new investigation. Particularly easy to follow is the WTC 7 situation, 2.5 seconds of free-fall, after it was NOT hit by a plane and only had office furniture burning for some hours. No variables in that situation lead to free fall destruction of a steel frame skyscraper. It's collapse by fire is just not physically possible. Very many factors in WTC 1 and 2 also need a new investigation, but WTC 1 and 2 are (obviously) more complex than WTC 7.

Building Number 7 should be enough to convince anyone that this whole thing was a controlled demolition. Modern steel constructed buildings do not collapse due to fire alone. This building was new enough to likely have a sprinkler system that should have extinguished any fire.

I have never felt comfortable with the 'house of cards' collapse of the twin towers. In recent years I've studied work by the commendable David Ray Griffin, whose rational and calm examination of the evidence helps shine a light on the likely truth of the terrible events of that day. In keeping with the many brave professionals who have been prepared to speak out concerning their deep unease about the events of that day, and the incongruity of the official reports, I find myself unable to turn my back on this matter, despite the best efforts of the establishment who continually attempt to discredit it. Please keep on working hard to expose the truth of what really happened on that day, those behind this potentially greatest ever crime, and to bring them and their conspirators to justice in the name of those who lost their lives on the day and subsequently.

I have watched the documentary produced by Ae911truth and this has triggered my curiosity, as I have found many arguments extremely convincing. Since then, I have been looking for more info over the Internet, including official government reports. The more I dig, the more I believe there's something missing in the equation.

I do not believe in the official statement from neither the NIST nor from the American government. Scientifically, the destruction of the WTC 1, 2 and 7 towers is not logical as currently explained by officials.

The 9/11 Commission report is completely inadequate. It does not even acknowledge the destruction of WTC-7. The NIST reports stop short of explaining the destruction of the twin towers - choosing to attempt to deal with initiation of collapse only. The symmetrical freefall destruction of WTC-7 into its footprint due to 'ordinary office fires' and a single column failure strains credulity beyond its limits. Real investigations by the National Transportation Safety Board, Chemical Safety Board, etc. are thorough and to the highest ethical and professional standards - using all available evidence to arrive at logical science-based conclusions. This type of investigation has yet to occur for the events of 9/11. The current dubious conclusions of the 9/11 investigation require cherry-picked evidence, a secret model that is off limits to peer review, and exclusion of contradictory evidence. The process used was anything but scientific. It is long past due for a truly professional and science-based inquiry into the tragic events of 9/11. We owe it to the victims and the families of those killed on that fateful day.

If a building is falling down with nearly acceleration of free fall, the resistance of the mechanical structure had to be nearly zero. The sudden disappearance of nearly all stability in the structure of the WTC buildings can neither be explained by planes destroying some floors, nor be explained by fire damage. So the official explanation is in opposition to basic physical laws. It has to be wrong. We need a new report based on a new investigation.

I received a BSIE from SUNY Buffalo in 1970Worked for GE for 5 years, then Varco-Pruden Metal Building Systems for 3 years and was the Engineering manager at the Office of State Publishing for 33 years, retiring in 2011.... was fortunate to have a wide variety of projects over that time period.Everything from welding and printing equipment specification to oversight of building construction projects including structural roof re-inforcement to support an evaporative cooling system as well as supporting pollution control equipment that incinerated VOC compounds used in lithographic offset printing.
Building 7 videos show a standard building demolition at gravity free fall with a NIST explanation that an office fire was the cause... how absolutely ridiculous. This got me thinking about the Twin Towers and the jet fuel temperatures, which led me to the YouTube clips of the firemen talking about molten metal coming down the channels and the statements that the ground floor lobby area was already blown out before the towers came down. Then I learned about Thermite and realized that the governments explanation of what happened was a complete fabrication and the buildings could not have come down if they were only hit by a commercial passenger aircraft. I also found the Pilots for 911 truth to be informative when they stated that the specific Boeing aircraft cited could not generate enough thrust to fly at 500+ mph at that low of an altitude (80% of the atmosphere is contained in the 1st 2 miles of altitude) because the air is too dense. They can fly at 500+ mph when they are at 6 or 7 miles up in the THIN air, less resistance.
