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.

Previously member of the Association of Architects in the GDR.
My questions and doubts began on 11.9.2001 and since then I have been observing the information and evidence that the official account of all four, no five events, is not true. I have been convinced of this for many years. I am depressed by the fact that wars have been waged since 2001 because of these false reports and millions of people have already died. I am also very concerned that Germany is involved in these illegal wars. The world changed after the 11.9.2001, therefore the world has a right to an independent, international, professional, scientific and forensic investigation. In this sense I sign the petition!

If controlled demolition, super-thermite, was used to bring down these three towers, is it not possible the aircraft used were drones and not the commercial aircraft we were told. We are going to have to address this eventually.

Immediate suspicion of the 'official' narrative was allayed by BBC and media reports that special design features of the towers might have made them unusually vulnerable to aircraft impact. It was a couple of years before I learned that Building 7 came down in free fall. This information started me on a search for truth...David Ray Griffin's series of books on this topic have been my best source of well-referenced evidence.

In this case, it doesn't take an expert to comprehend the massive energy necessary to pulverize these major high-rise towers. They were built to last. As such, buildings like this just don't turn to dust in a matter of seconds as a result of fire coupled with the force of gravity. Other buildings similar to Seven experienced fires of greater duration and intensity and did not dissolve. Only these three buildings disappeared into a cloud of dust taking with them thousands of souls. Why?

I hold both B.S. and M.S. degrees in chemical engineering. My professional experience ranges from high-technology to petrochemicals; my specialties include field applications, process/design engineering, and R&D. I particularly enjoy being challenged with technical issues. I reside and work in the Bay Area of Calif.
The scientific method has never proven in any capacity that skyscrapers can completely implode, let alone efficiently and symmetrically, from external impacts or fire. According to official video coverage, it is not even clear what struck the first two towers (esp. by watching in slow motion), and WTC7 experienced no related impact whatsoever, aircraft or otherwise. Evidence that all three buildings were demolished professionally was observed by several eyewitness reports stating the presence of multiple explosions and confirmed through forensic analysis, specifically research by Dr. Steven E. Jones of BYU (whom to this date is the only individual I am aware of who performed ANY forensic analysis on the building debris). Further, Larry Silverstein's public pull it statement regarding WTC7 was particularly incriminating and obvious, his profit of $500M resulting from his prescient insurance policy on the building notwithstanding.

I knew something wasn't right the day of Sept 11. I have worked in burned out buildings, and many structural steel buildings from the ground up.
I knew something wasn't right that day of Sept 11. My suspicions were proven, in my opinion, when they started carting off the debris so soon before a thorough investigation could take place. It really breaks my heart.

I have more than the high school physics education it takes to soundly debunk the official story of WTC7's collapse. Now what?
For years I didn't even know there was a third steel skyscraper to collapse on 9/11. When I saw the footage for the first time I had the same reaction many news anchors voiced live that day- it's eerily similar to a controlled demolition. When I looked deeper, with an open mind, I found that the physics of the collapses confirm that observation and expose the official story as clearly false.

It is inconcievable to me that all three buildings collapsed as they did - especially bldg 7 which wasn't even hit by a plane - but exploded independently and fell to the ground as if it were caused by a controlled demolition.

It is impossible that this was caused by the reported cause of disaster. Through misinformation we have received a false idea of the events. It is very clear that these were intentional and caused from within the boundaries of the Unites States as opposed to foreign intervention.

I just retired after 34 years of work in one place. My health is sliding faster then I would want. I'm diagnosed with C.I.D.P. It's a rare form of Neuropathy. It affects all muscles also. It gradually gets worse all the time and there is no cure. I hope to travel some and to get back into hiking again. My time is running kind of fast now. I've had this for 10 years now. I got it from taking statin drugs. I just turned 55 years of age.
I was at work on 9/11 and some co-workers and I were listening to NPR on the radio while working. Then the news came over the radio about the first strike. One co-worker went to his locker and retrieved a 9 inch TV, which we watched. We just quit working and were in silence as we watched the second Tower get hit. Then we watched in horror as the first Tower fell. I always remember this next part. Not knowing the truth for another 9 years, I turned to a co-worker and said, Wow! They sure don't make buildings like they used to. When I did see the truth, it was because I was looking for video footage of 9/11. I was blind sided.

I have studied History, American Studies and Politics for 5 years, and have been specifically following the fall out of 9/11 since the day it happened. Only now does it feel like the truth may come out, with the support of academics and architects particularly.
It is very clear that amount of concrete and steel couldn't have been displaced by a simple 'pancake fashion' collapse. Some explosives must have been used to take the three Towers down, into their own footprint, at free-fall speed. The implications of explosives however, are of epic proportions.

The Twin Towers exploded into dust and shattered steel. I don't believe that the Towers collapsed spontaneously. It looks like controlled demolition. Plus, Building 7 imploded late on 9/11 and it was not hit by an aircraft. All the buildings collapsed like the art of controlled demolition.

I am an American citizen and have been living in Israel for the past 40 years. Still, I try to pay attention to all that is going on there. However, it was the official story and that alone I was hearing over the news media. Then I was sent a video by someone I work with.
After having heard what Architects and Engineers were saying about the collapse of Building #7 at the Trade Center, I found their conclusions as to the events that took place that day to be shockingly believable.

I was born and raised in the California Bay Area. I worked in the area of drug abuse and community organization before I moved to Israel at the age of 28. I married an American who I met in Israel. We have three children, and my husband has been working as a musician playing the French Horn his entire career. I did not find work in my field when I came to Israel, and studied to become an English teacher, which I was never entirely satisfied with. All my life I have been creative with my hands, and made a business out of it when the internet first became popular.
Having heard the explanation of what happened to building #7 from Architects and Engineers, among others, I became convinced that the official story is not the real or whole story. Also so many reports of explosions that were ignored in the official version; calls in itself for further investigation.

Based on my own research into the circumstances surrounding the 9/11 tragedy, I believe there is a lot of information being withheld from the general public that we have a right to. One of the first steps toward revealing the truth is a full understanding of those circumstances, which is why I believe a deeper investigation into the collapse of the buildings is of utmost importance.

I have recently reviewed several documentaries featuring Richard Gage and I'm completely convinced that the official story is the either the result of professional neglect or outright criminal intent on the part of those charged with investigating the events of 9/11 and interpreting those events for the public. I am reasonably convinced that all of the WTC high-rise collapses were due to controlled demolition.

I have no training as an engineer nor do I possess a college degree. My father is an engineer with the Tulsa City County Library.
To this day, 9/11 remains on my mind. I see it online, I see buildings that remind me of the Trade Centers, I even dream of it , making it that much harder to bear. I confess that, in the beginning, I was a skeptic who wanted no part of anything I considered to be conspiracy in nature. However, after watching 9/11: In Plane Site, 9/11: Loose Change, and then watching the commercial for Remember Building 7, I have to say that there is more to this awful day then meets the eye. Americans are not receiving the full facts and families are being lied to. Those buildings did not come down on their own and there are facts to support it. We deserve the truth about why and, more importantly, how those buildings came down.

I am a Realtor by trade, have been in Real Estate for 12 years now. I am looking for answers.
The official story doesn't sit right with me. It has too many discrepancies, these discrepancies need to be addressed. The coincidence of all 3 buildings falling into their foot-print is an anomaly, the fact that all 3 buildings fell at all is strange period. These buildings shouldn't have fallen, I don't need to be an expert to come up with that conclusion. I was 18 years old on 9/11 and even then, watching it live, I knew that it wasn't right. The fact that there are over 150 professional witness that attest to hearing/seeing explosions NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. There was never any mention of explosives in the official story, so even if one person says that they saw/heard explosions...that should be investigated immediately. There needs to be an investigation into the companies involved for cleanup, investigations, selling of the evidence, the heads of those companies should be investigated to see what ties they have to government officials. All in all, too much was denied, when it should've been proven wrong. The evidence that is pointing towards controlled demolition is too strong, and if it can't be proven wrong, it should be investigated further. There is more evidence that points to a controlled demolition causing the buildings to collapse...than a fire and plane strike. Thank you.
