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 a U.S. Citizen currently residing in Mexico. I am also a veteran of U.S. Army Intelligence. Some years back, I was a 3D VR draftsman for several architects in Mexico City and was a certified Archicad instructor for Graphisoft Mexico during that time.
In light of evidence accumulated from many different sources regarding 911.. I FIRMLY and STEADFASTLY support any and all efforts to carry out a private sector investigation into not only the causes of 911 but its implications as well. In my opinion, there are 3 GLARING areas of interest to look at with respect to 911. 1) WTC 7 WAS OUTSIDE THE BASIN. Given that what appears to have brought down WTC 7 were tremors resulting from the other WTC buildings falling in close proximity - In my opinion this is area that needs to be examined carefully. 2) THE MAGICAL DISSAPEARING ENGINES at the pentagon. 3) MOLTEN IRON at the base of the WTC. Jet Fuel.. yeah right.. we all believe that one.

I graduated from UC Berkeley in 2002, and began working for an engineering consulting firm in San Francisco in the beginning of 2003, where I continue to work as Mechanical Engineer. I have been a licensed Mechanical Engineer in California since 2006.
When I found the information about the collapse of the three WTC buildings, I noticed that it is clear that the official account of what caused the collapse does not explain all of the observed behavior of the buildings before, during, and after their collapse. I think that a more rigorous investigation is required into what caused these buildings to collapse, regardless of how uncomfortable some of the information that may uncover may be.

I obtained work to design, build and normalize a shaking table with the aim of teaching the theoretic and practical aspects about oscillation phenomena to the students of architecture and civil engineering.
Maybe it won't be ever possible to know who was behind the terrorist attack in the saddest day in the history of the USA, but every person who analyzes carefully the evidence exposed by A&E for 9/11 truth and other groups dealing with the issue, can conclude by him or herself that the official version is not only incomplete but strongly biased in order to avoid the knowing of the truth. Physics can't be corrupted by money.

I build things for a living,,, even destroy things at times ..it is obvious what happened. You need to break down the public's cognitive dissonance.
I told my wife the day the towers came down that it looked like a controlled demolition and I suspected Cheney and Bush( NSA are you listening?) She has not been able to wrap her head around it, cognitive dissonance I suppose. But all the events of the past 12 yrs point to a coup by the Federal Govt. - Even Obama is one of them , who would of thunk It.

There are many reasons to doubt the official explanation for the attacks, the destruction and the loss of life that occurred on 11 Sept' 2001. One of the earlier items of interest is the report produced by The Project for the New American Century titled 'Rebuilding America's Defenses, Strategy, Forces and Resources For a New Century' dated September 2000. This document discusses, among other things, the need 'To preserve American military preeminence in the coming decades' (pp50) and 'seek to exploit the emerging revolution in military affairs.' (pp50) it goes on to describe a transformation of the military largely due to information technology and the need to retain a leading position in this area by increased spending and, now famously, 'Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event ' like a new Pearl Harbor' (pp51) which obviously brings up the question of whether 9/11 was deemed necessary by those with the power to effect such a catastrophe and therefore a false flag operation. In regard to building 7 the fact that it was and remains the only building of concrete encased steel ever to collapse due to fire, and there are numerous examples of far more serious fires (greater heat and duration) that have failed to bring down buildings of similar construction, is reason in itself to doubt if not simply disregard the official explanation. Finally it has been said in at least one documentary film that suggesting that 9/11 was anything other than that stated in the official explanation dishonours those who died. In my opinion this is the most outrageous affront not only to democracy, decency and common sense but to those whose lives were so callously taken and to those who loved them.

I feel strongly about all matters involving 9/11. Two of my high school classmates died that day. One of which was a 31 young old firefighter. I want the truth to come to the surface... for all to see and fully understand. For so many of the masses to look beyond the government narrative, cover-up and lies... beyond their own cognitive dissonance, etc.I attended last year's events (AE 9/11 Truth Re-think 9/11 Building 7 events/speeches) and plan to do so again this year... bringing a few friends along with me this time.

The Twin Towers were designed to take an impact from a Boeing 707 airplane. The fire from the aviation fuel only burns at about 1800 degrees Fahrenheit -- that's not hot enough to melt steel. If there was a partial collapse of the building's upper structure, those sections would have toppled one way or the other and the structural mass below would have prevented any further collapse. Although building number seven was not struck by an aircraft it too collapsed, supposedly from a fire.The video coverage of the buildings' collapsing clearly shows that these were controlled demolitions -- the collapse of building number seven is the best example of this. All three of these buildings collapsed into their own footprint. Also, the wreckage burned for some time after that when there really was no flammable material. The only substance that can cut thru steel rapidly is thermite.

It was a false flag operation. It was not the 'attacks' that brought the buildings down; I'm not even convinced there were any real hijackings. Something did probably fly into WTC 1 & 2, but that was just a smoke screen for what really happened. Literally, behind the dust they carried out an unorthodox top-down demolition. WTC 7 - they didn't even try to hide it. Pentagon - not an airliner, probably a cruise missile.

I graduated from High School in 1973, went to work at an apple shed for 10 years, then worked in the refineries and the shipyard as a pipefitter and a welder. I like fixing things and making things last. I don't like waste and I don't like people who falsify a report to protect other people. I believe if you want a job as a Public Servant, you need to act like one and not use your office for private gain. I feel very strongly that when people are found to be guilty of a crime or murder, the sentencing needs to fit the crime.
The 911 Commissioners that had anything to do with the Offical 911 Report, needs to be taken to court and they need to prove what they have stated in their report. Then once the Offical Report and the Commissioners have been proven to be fraud, the reseach to follow the money and follow who was going to greatly benifit from this terroristic act needs to be held accountable for murder.

Not much to it. Dropped out of school, 9 years later got my GED, 9 years after that I was in college for Environmental Technology and graduated with a 3.87 GPA. Most of my experience comes from life. I am an observer and a truth seeker. I am neither anti or pro government, I simply seek truth.
The tragedy of 9/11 hit me hard. I cried for 3 days straight. But after time, a lot of information began being spread of how insane the story line was. These buildings were strong with steel on the inside and outside. A plane can be shredded with very minimal impact. So I began searching for more info and the more I searched, the more I found. The true story of these buildings 'falling' needs to come into the light. We the people deserve the truth, and those that died that fateful day need to be vindicated.

The collapse of the 3 steel buildings in such a symmetrical and straight down manner in such a short period of time combined with the nano thermite found, the molten steel found, the many explosions heard, etc. all coupled with the earlier pronouncement by the Project for a New American Century that a 'New Pearl Harbor' was needed to transform the US military, place more foreign military bases, etc. and the Official Government Conspiracy Theory of 4 hijackers per plane - with box cutters - overcoming experienced fighter jet pilots and planes full of passengers and the most technologically advanced military force on the earth, turns me into a 'Conspiracy Analyst'. Add to this a little knowledge as to how the Owners of the USA and its government have traditionally acted - read Albert Beveridge's September 16, 1898 'March of the Flag' speech - and it is clear that the US Government's Official 9/11 Conspiracy Theory needs to be analyzed and a new investigation of 9/11 undertaken. Declaration of a perpetual and geographically unbounded 'War on Terror' in reaction to nothing more than a crime - hijacking - that called for nothing greater than a thorough investigation and police action, and the new US police-prison state and crumbling US quality of life indicators leaves us no doubt that the 9/11 events were planned and orchestrated, but not by a man in a cave in Afghanistan.

I am a social worker and took political science in college and our professor told us that nothing happens, in politics, that doesn't have to do with property, power or prestige so when something happened that I should ask myself, who benefits?
Immediately after 9/11 I started asking myself, who benefited from this because I believed something else was going on but I wasn't and am still not sure who benefits, that is, aside from the oil and construction benefits, I am not sure of the benefit and to whom that was for, and would really like to know.

My Opinion, after reviewing information presented, is that all three buildings were precision demolished, and that our own government was potentially complicit in their destruction. The operation had to be very expensive, and required military grade demolition materials and setup. I feel that the destruction was instigated to facilitate our insertion into war, none of which have resulted in permanent peace. I believe that the jets that were flown into buildings and pentagon were strictly for cover and agitation.
