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.

Never really knew/believed so much in a 'possible planned activity' until I came across 'ReThink911' today.I am not in a position to deny the justifications placed by all the scientist and engineers here.Although not an expert as many others here, but I did wonder what if '9/11' was not only what was projected to the mass. What may have caused this and why? And where does this all ends?Who's got a complete answer and would the world be ever a safer place to live?

I received a BS in Civil Engineering from a four year accredited university in 1986. I became a licensed Civil Engineer in the State of California in 1991. I have worked in several fields of civil engineering including structural design.
The Official story does not appear to be supported by the evidence. It would appear much more likely that demolition brought down the twin towers and building 7 than the burning jet fuel. The fact that the floors and columns came down so fast and in the same footprint along with the chemical analysis of the molten metal indicate the buildings were very likely brought down by controlled demolition. A through investigation by independent engineers, architects, and explosives experts is necessary for the truth to be known about what actually happened on 9/11/2001.

Retired. Work on F4D, A3D, DC-10, T-45, and F-20, in flight tests and flutter models developing instrumentation systems and some instruments. Developed instrumentation tape recorders both ground stations and high environment types for aircraft and missiles. Was a problem solver and project engineer from the beginning as a technician before finishing my degree, and through out my career.
As I watched the TV of the planes hitting and the collapse of the towers and Bldg 7, I said to my wife, They were imploded. To me it was obvious that was the case, because they came down in their own footprint. Later when they cleared the site before forensic evidence could be collected and examined, as was done in Oklahoma City, I became certain that it was setup. My theory is that after the first attempt on the towers, the powers-to-be managed the installation of the charges, how I didn't know, but then they waited for the Muslims to strike again; using it as an excuse for the war and Patriot Act.

I received a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I have since worked in the automotive and medical device industry in quality.
The most compelling argument for the systematic and engineered destruction of the Twin Towers is the rate and direction of the fall. The buildings seem to undergo no internal resistance. Watch videos of failed demolitions and you will see what happens when buildings receive an isolated impact. Even when the detonations stop half way down the building, the remaining structure is relatively unharmed and remains standing. It takes impeccable timing and precise detonations to achieve what was witnessed on 9/11. The fall of building 7 doesn't even merit a scientific argument for why it wasn't engineered for demolition.

I am a 65-year-old man, a retired automotive engineer. In my last job, I was director of operations.
The Truth is that huge, that it seems that only technicians, hiding behind their technical knowledge, dare to speak out their opinion about this terrible event about using explosives. Non-technicians are excused by not-understanding and do not compromise themselves. Is that why politicians prefer to act as technical imbeciles?

I do not believe the 'official' 9/11 story that the mainstream media portrays. The melting point of steel is 1510 degrees Celsius, and the maximum burning temperature of jet fuel is only 825 degrees Celsius. I am also aware of the 1975 World Trade Center Fire which shattered windows burning at or above 700 degrees Celsius, while doing no damage to the steel. In the 9/11 attack, the windows only shattered due to the airplane crash and not the heat, suggesting that the temperature at which the building was burning was under 700 Celsius. Yet, somehow it is obvious that there is liquid hot steel dripping down off the Tower in several videos just before the collapse. This could only be explained by the traces of thermite found in the rubble after the incident. I have also watched survivor witness accounts claiming that they heard explosions inside the building. For example, Kenneth Johannemann claimed that he heard explosions in the basement of the North Tower before and after the plane crash, clearly stating that they were not the sounds of the plane impact. He told his story publicly on several occasions. But in 2008 he mysteriously to the surprise of many, committed suicide, apparently. Barry Jennings also mysteriously died of unknown causes after going on record on a documentary called Loose Change. He was in Building 7 when explosions were set off. The video of the Pentagon plane crash looks suspicious to me as well, because when I look at it frame by frame, I can't see a plane crash into the building. I only see the explosion.

I want to see justice for all who had to participate in the whole horrible ordeal. I just don't understand how Bldg 7 fell. I don't understand how the Twin Towers just fell to the ground either. Weren't they fortified steel meant to survive a 707 hitting it? What happened?

my ivy league educated father diverted from a long line of doctors/ surgeons to become an architect, deciding to raise his family in san francisco. myself and my siblings were all competitive athletes, i eventually pursued ballet and danced professionally until i married at age 28. my husband was a contractor eventually owning his own building business. i stayed home to raise two children, later working as a medical office manager. a lifelong reader of non-fiction, i studied philosophy, socio-cultural anthropology, architecture and history. when my children were grown (i'd divorced by then) i left to travel to fulfill my want to study 'on the ground' more about what i'd studied in books. i developed an interest in engineering as i traveled. after 7 years traveling and studying abroad (mostly europe but also egypt for example) i recently returned to the states with an interest in studying american history, society, culture. having left the country shortly after the 911 events, i knew virtually nothing of particular interest about it until recently my studies here led me to examine the events.
I have spent many many hours studying available material about the events. i am sure that the two planes that hit the towers were not alone responsible for their collapse. i believe that as with building 7, they were very likely prepared by demolition experts to collapse. the implications are such that i remain yet skeptical about many other aspects of the days events including such as the fact that (supposedly) coincidentally only the majority of otherwise would be available jets were tied up in training exercises that morning. together with many other inconsistencies i am sure beyond a doubt that some agency worked hard to prepare a scenario and sell it to the american public. the who/why behind it all is factually far more difficult to be certain of.

I am an active activist. I am only one person but I share the truth with many others.. who, in turn do the same. If there is nothing to hide, a new Citizen's for 9/11 Truth shouldn't be a problem.
Like everyone else, when the first plane hit, I thought it was a horrible accident. When the second one hit, I was in shock. When there was news that maybe a 3rd and 4th plane were planning an attack, I wondered why there were no jets scrambled immediately. Why is there no real film footage of the plane hitting the Pentagon. What happened to the news reporter that was on the freeway and saw a missile pass over his head. Why isn't the Pentagon employee that was sitting 40' from the blast not taken seriously. You can't say she was a nut... she worked at the Pentagon.. You can't be crazy and work for the government????!! The EPA came in and told everyone that the air was fine to breath even before they knew what was in the ashes. These people are suffering horribly. Citizens and Emergency Responders alike have very rare cancers.

If the collapse of the Towers were actually caused by the impact of the airliners, it would be extremely unlikely that each Tower would fall in a nearly identical fashion.

3 yrs ago I was bed ridden for at least 9months with a condition called Ulcertive colitis, during this time I couldnt work. All I could do was watch video and read. I saw a documentary called PRESS FOR TRUTH about the Jersey Girls and Paul Thompson Timeline. After watching that my eyes were wide open, I was no longer asleep. I think if you do alittle digging you will come to realize, the 9/11 commission report was a white wash and N.I.S.T. should be investigated by the D.O.J. (Not the FBI) for fraud.

Upon the first sight of the building's falling...I knew in my heart that it was a controlled demolition. I have watched many. I am no expert on demolition, but who has to be? Buildings do not fall straight down when damaged unless something gives them a direction to go to. I could see the top of the building tilt and possibly fall off to the direction of where it was being undermined. The buildings should not have collapsed unless they were helped. William Cooper predicted this on June 28th and paid for his speaking out with his life. Something has to be done to bring those responsible for the destruction and lives lost! The last time I looked...this is the USA...where the people had rights to question and speak out. I have followed this closely from day one (9/11) and every time someone tries to question the events they are met with ridicule from the media. Why are they so out spoken? Why are they so convinced of the events without a proper investigation...BY THE PEOPLE? We need to get this done or we will become a censored communist state instead of a country that's supposed to be based on the principle by the people...for the people! I commend your work! It's about time! Good Job!

Fires from burning jet fuel are scientifically not hot enough to melt steal and cause the building to collapse. The evidence does not support the official theory, it's just not possible. I want a full independent scientific investigation that will look into the facts.

My impression of him is that he is genuine, extremely intelligent, and truly dedicated to getting to the bottom of this mess. I was also impressed with the intelligence awareness and knowledge base of those that attended the presentation as well.
