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.

Although I am not an expert in demolition, there is no doubt in my mind that the upper portion of the WTC tower(s) that apparently collapsed by fire could not bring down -along a perfect vertical axis- the other remaining officially undamaged structure of the tower(s) at free fall speed causing total and even destruction (pulverization) of the building . This is pure physics. As a technician I do not accept the 'pancake-fall' official version which utterly contradicts the logic of physics. The rest of the evidence provided by ae911truth.org leaves no doubt whatsoever that the cause of WTC's and building 7's fall was a controlled demolition. We all still suffer the consequences of this brutal event. As a free democrat European citizen I urge the American government to clarify all technical questions raised both by ae91truth.org and world911truth.org and I urge the (so called) Free Press to play an active roll on this issue.

Have extensive experience analyzing structural steel frames for Fuel Cell Power Plants. Also have extensive experience performing heat transfer analysis on high temperature fuel processor components and using the results to perform thermal stress analyses.
The official story has so many holes in it it is a wonder that it does not collapse under its own weight. The evidence presented by the engineers and architects seeking the truth about 9/11 makes sense. The collapse modes of the WTC buildings do not make sense based on any structural evaluation based on airplane crash damage and subsequent fires.

It is physically impossible for buildings to have collapsed in that manner due to the impact of the commercial aircraft and resulting fires. There are many eye witness testimonies of large explosions even before the airplanes allegedly hit the towers. There are simply far too many discrepancies. An international external investigation should be undertaken into the 9/11 attacks.

Thirty-four years of mechanical, automobile and civil engineering experience. Formerly a licensed professional engineer in Texas. Earned my engineering degree in 1981 from the Rochester Institute of technology Kate Gleason College of Engineering. I had my co-op experience with Delco Products. After graduation I went to work for Texaco in Texas and have spent most of my career in Texas, except for nine years teaching Automotive Engineering in China and developing urban personal vehicles. Earned a Master of Science degree from Lamar University in 2004. Returned to the USA in 2016 for continuing work in the petrochemical industry. I am continuing to edit scientific papers for my colleagues in China.
I was suspicious when I saw the WTC twin towers collapse as in a controlled demolition. I became more convinced when thermite residues were found in the dust that spread over much of downtown Manhattan. I questioned whether it was a false flag or whether the towers were destroyed partly because they were mostly empty prior to the collapse; they were a money-losing proposition. The other fact was that they were over-insured. This came out after the collapse.

I have 12 years experience in metallurgy and applications engineering in steel and aluminum, sheet plate, extrusions, forgings, castings, wire rod and bar.
In light of the fact that no steel (and concrete) structured building in history has ever completely collapsed due to fire, and observing the physics and other facts regarding the twin towers and bldg 7 collapses, one needs some factual engineering data to support the official story. The known facts and data suggest strongly that the official story is inadequate and erroneous to explain the collapses......but EXPLOSIVES do explain them.

Initially believing what the Government and media stated about the attacks, but over time in listening to actual eye-witness accounts came to believe that something very sinister happened. Then of course very considered and objective scientists and engineers, principally you folks, examined the remaining evidence and clearly we Americans were bamboozled. On top of all that, there's Silverstein directing the Fire Department to 'just pull it'! So, AE911 Truth, all of you, are truth seekers and heroes - you have found the truth.

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 was working in Brighton(UK) on 9/11. It was in a small office where one of the guys saw an internet news feed about the first plane. We then all started checking to see what was going on. We saw the 2nd plane hit and the collapse of the 2 towers. My first reaction was shock at how neatly the towers went down and didn't collapse at an angle from the point of impact. I must admit, even without any engineering experience, I smelt a rat. Subsequently of course with such a media storm and evidence and facts coming out bit by bit over the years I am even more convinced 2 planes alone did not achieve this. Leaving aside WTC7 and the Pentagon.

None.. just a regular Mom, Grandma, and great grandmom. I learned long ago that 9/11 was a lie from the very beginning...sitting at my desk at a local hospital and watching the second Tower come down , my first words out of my mouth, (as I spoke to myself) were: ' how does that happen?'.'..friends gave me info in 2009, that made me research 9/11 ...a mere child could put 2+2 and get 4....same thing with the lies and fraud about the truth of 9/11. it sickens me!!...
Lies..bogus findings from NIST ...sickening investigation to say the least! Too many witnesses who speak of explosions ongoing in the Towers before they came down. ...my words as I watched it all on TV were, 'How is that possible?'

I am insulted at how such an obvious demolition is written off to the American people. Building 7 is the weakest link in an obvious cover-up of 9/11. It cannot be denied, it must be pursued.

When I saw the Towers come down I new something was wrong. Nothing that strongly built could come down that symmetrically and quickly without a very good plan of destruction at many floor levels. To tell the truth, the planners would have to be some of the very best at demolition. When I saw WTC7 come down I knew there was a crime not perpetrated by a man in a cave. Impossible

In my opinion, all that is relevant is having the ability to think rationally and critically, and to be an honest human being with a conscience. That is my relevant biography.
I find it thoroughly implausible that on September 11th 2001 the impact of, and burning fuel from, two commercial passenger airplanes brought down three towers at the World Trade Center in New York City. I find the fact that these steel towers melted from a jet fuel fire implausible. I find the fact that these towers collapsed in just a few hours implausible. I find the speed at which they collapsed (at near free fall rate) to be disturbing. I find the manner in which they collapsed vertically straight downwards disturbing. Unless the laws of physics became inapplicable on September 11th 2001 in New York City, then something clearly does not add up. I know not who did it. I know not how. But I do know that two jets with burning fuel, on their own did not bring down those three steel towers at that speed.

It appears to be a controlled explosion. After listening to eye witness accounts and watching video of the destruction of the Towers it is clear they were brought down by explosives, not a jet airplane or jet fuel burning. It is clear there has been a cover up. I am aware of a number of government employees who have told lies because they were told to. In this case whistleblowers have been fired like Kevin Ryan, the UL employee who reported that the tests UL did on the steel supporters would not have collapsed due to the fire. It is a sad day when you can't trust your own government and after this cover up by both parties it becomes a question of who can you trust? This needs to be cleared up.

9/11 truth investigator. My conclusion is criminal destruction by Nano-Thermate on and for the beneficial owner and the highest ranks of the then US Government. A massive fraud was perpetrated,and Hawks in the Government had their excuses to go to war.Everyone made money! Oh except those killed in the process.
After the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki the only buildings standing were steel framed buildings. Why would buildings designed to absorb the impact of an aircraft fall? Not by 'office fires'! Three steel framed buildings destroyed in several hours? Its a world first! The destruction of the World Trade Center was a massive criminal act!
