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.

I am British. My Bachelors degree is a 2.1 honours in biomedical science, my Masters degee is in Biosensors with a combined award in instrumentation and Analysis from UMIST in Manchester. MY PhD is in Nanotechnology, and the merging of living structures onto nanoscae transduction platforms. However, I dont think that you need a doctorate to see that WTC7 is a controlled demolition, its plainly obvious.
How is it possible that the official NIST examination of this phenomenon failed to look for the presence of any explosives. To the trained eye and to the untrained eye, WTC7 is obviously a controlled demolition. The WHOLE world knows this, and is laughing at you for continuing the charade.

The uniform free fall speed of the collapses into the building's own footprint is sufficient evidence to convince me of controlled demolitions, let alone witness testimony of bomb blasts and residue tests showing the use of a thermite substance.

I have worked within multiple disciplines of civil engineering - surveying, roadway design, materials testing, infrastructure design and most recently steel detailing.
In the shocking moments of the collapse, my first reaction to the building failure was that there was no way 2 separate steel buildings struck by a plane could possibly come straight down completely pulverized and then a third building nearly unscathed suffer an identical failure. I feel that the media effectively force-fed the population a misconstrued version of the story. With all the horror and fear and confirmation from experts and eventually war, even I began to replace my initial reaction and knowledge with the thought that stranger things have happened even in the world of engineering. But more so; what would the horrible truth implicate and how would a nation react? Let us not forget that even the Pentagon damage raises questions. Nonetheless; as a member of the engineering society whose duty is to the safety of the public, I believe that too many people have died and too many provocative questions have been dismissed for us to ignore the need for a genuine investigated.

On 9/11, I watched for 15 minutes (about 2:30 EDT), by then Osama bin Laden was already being blamed. I stepped away muttering, How could he be so stupid? This is exactly what Bush and crew have been waiting for. I then tuned the whole thing out for two and a half years until an interview on KPFK radio got my attention. For the next few months, I spent my free time reviewing the evidence. The collapse of the (3) towers as described by the official 9/11 story, if true, would be the first ever documented violation of the laws of physics and would undermine the foundation of all engineering disciplines. Another energy source must be present. Explosives is the only hypothesis thus far put forth that is consistent with all available evidence. The fossil record regarding 9/11 is both detailed and overwhelming. Explosives implies fore-knowledge, making 9/11 a false-flag psychological operation. A proper investigation and indictments are long overdue.

It is ludicrous that the 911 commission did not investigate the possibility of intentional demolition by use of explosives of the 3 world trade center towers. I believe the 'Patriot Act', written well in advance of 9/11/01, is the biggest destruction of American liberty. It needs to be repealed after a REAL investigation of the events of 9/11 brings out the truth of what happened on that day.

I saw it fall when I was in elementary school. I was in first grade. I had been told that it was terrorists, and if I were to believe any different, I was crazy. As I got older however, I started to look at many other videos, and at first I saw the minor explosions as the towers were falling. Then, after that, I saw a video about a regular building falling. It looked identical to how the wtc fell. So, I brought my laptop and my friends laptop together, and we watched the videos at the same time, and saw, that they fell together at the same time.

The facts presented to the media and the American people just didn't make sense to me then and really do not now.

After reading David Ray Griffin's book, 'The 9/11 Commission: Omissions & Distortions', I knew for sure, we were being told a lie. Plus, I listened to Thom Hartmann and Randy Rhodes on the radio, at that time and felt I knew more about the truth than the Congress, who bought the lies, hook, line and sinker! Then my husband and I went to hear Richard Gage speak at a hotel near the LA Airport. With a show of hands, there were some people who weren't sure what they believed. After his talk, Richard Gage asked again for a show of hands, 'Who still doesn't believe what they've heard from us, today?' NO hands went up. I have kept in touch with A&E9/11 and supported them monetarily and happily! We must get the truth to all Americans.

I don't believe the official story as my analytical mind tells me there are too many open possibilities not explored in the official explanation. Over a million people died world wide as a result of 9/11 therefore it should at least be properly independently investigated and analyzed and published. I wonder how history and our children's children would view us if we don't?

Like everyone else, I want the truth to come out about 9/11 and for those to be trial and convicted for their part in this. Wars and the spiral of our economy has been a result of 9/11. The lives lost and loss of freedoms with the guns and liberties being taken away by the powers that be. We've been lied to. I believe greed and corruption like this is a result of our monetary system. We need a new system government, and monetary system for the people, by the people. Not the federal reserve.

The minute I saw the first Tower go down I knew in my gut that could not happen as I was seeing it. But then Building 7 made it crystal clear that there was not even close to enough time to prep that building for a controlled demo. Therefore it had to be prepped long before they (Pulled it). Serious time is needed for a building of this size. I don't know what was used but it was not caused by 2 planes.

It is inconceivable as I watched the towers fall that such a catastrophic event could happen, given the engineering and construction techniques used to build the World Trade Centers. I did accept at first the given rationale, but always questioned the logic and reasoning for their demise. It does not follow engineering rigor.

In 2005 I took a civil engineering course at UWM, in which they covered the collapse of WTC 7. In that class, the reason given for the total collapse of the building was that there were large stores of fuel and oxygen in the building, and pipes broken by debris from the collapse of the first two buildings fed the fire in WTC 7 the whole time the fire dept. was fighting it. I could stomach that. Once I discovered the official report from the National Institute of Standards and Technology concluded that WTC 7 collapsed from fires fueled by office furnishings I had to find out more. I found the AE911Truth video, and I want to do everything I can to share this information with others.

My first comment that morning, after being aroused by a phone call to view it on TV, was I wonder what the involvement of our government was? I've worked with and around engineers and architects for years so the whole horrible mess did not ring true as presented. I also heard some comments that were stricken after their initial broadcast. I wondered aloud why there was no scramble by our Air Force protectors.

The NIST report and all other official government accounts of the collapse of the three towers on 9/11 are fatally flawed due to the unlawful destruction of evidence, selection bias used for inputs in various models, willful ignorance of forensic evidence found at the sites showing molten steel (not just aluminum) and resultant iron microspheres dispersed throughout the dust in and around the collapse zone, as well as the presence of nanothermitic materials, and the unexplained symmetry and near free-fall speed of the collapse of WTC7 in particular. As for the twin towers, plastic deformation caused by column buckling and the transfer of about 2/3 of the kinetic energy from the top section to the ground should have certainly slowed the collapse considerably more than what occurred. The energy and heat that would have been required to create such immense pyroclastic flows of dust were far greater than what a simple unaided collapse would have caused. The official dismissal of hundreds of claims of audible explosions by firefighters, police officers and civilian witnesses in and around the towers at various points preceding the collapses of the buildings 1 and 2, coupled with clear audio and video evidence of said explosions, as well as the unexplained lateral ejections of massive building materials, is unacceptable. These and countless other inconsistencies in the official account of the collapses of the buildings demand a new independent investigation.

I remember where I was and what I was doing the exact moment the first tower was struck. The company I worked for had docking platforms that faced towards the Pearson International Airport and I remember an unusual amount of planes circling.... Minutes later hearing the devastating news on the radio... and hours later watching the devastation on T.V. I have watched numerous documentaries and read many articles and I am shaken by the facts uncovered and the facts that are being ignored... A lot of professionals have put their careers and lively hoods on the line, they have my ear, support and most of all my admiration for their courage! Thank you!

I don't have a degree in architecture or engineering, but do have nearly twenty years in the brewing profession as a brewer and brewmaster on the craft side of things. I've served as past president of Masters Brewers Association of the Americas - District Milwaukee, membership includes brewers and other professionals from all aspects in the industry including members from the largest international companies to the smallest brewpubs. Brewing requires never ending attention to detail to stay on top of process and quality, brewers are keen on small changes that occur during seemingly routine days. The lesson is that no day is routine.
Was watching live TV the morning the first tower fell. The camera had a tight shot of the corner of the first tower that fell. Just prior to the collapse, the video feed showed white hot metal pouring out the corner of the structure, pouring out like water. That struck me as very odd. I said out loud to my co-workers can these towers collapse??, the unanimous reply from several dozen people crowded around the large screen TV was no, no way. Just moments later we all watched in complete disbelief as the tower dropped straight to the ground, and I emphasize the word dropped, free fall. Then the second tower dropped. That evening Dan Rather announced that WTC7 had collapsed, I was completely stunned, no plane had hit that building. It is now my firm belief that United 93's final destination that day wasn't DC, it was #7. It didn't arrive, but at that point it had to come down or the jig would be up when/if the explosives would have been found in that structure. WTC 7 is the smoking gun.
