No, no, no

I read the article that I posted.
Your article was written prior to the AIA event...so you didn't realize that the vote had already been taken, and was rejected by over 96% of the members at that conference. If the vote had gone your way, you would not be calling AIA a 'mafia' type organization, you would have used them as a credible source. As it turns out, they rejected AE911Truth overwhelmingly, and thus you label them a sham.
Which makes the entire basis of your argument a sham. You decide in advance what architects and engineers should say about the collapses, and if they don't fit your narrative, you add them to the conspiracy. Any source I give, including multiple science papers in legitimate peer-reviewed journals (which you cannot produce, since AE911Truth doesn't do science), you will simply write off as being part of the conspiracy. This is a game on your part. But, but, but...PETITION! Yeah. Nice try.

The point was that EVEN among the AIA courageous engineers publicly voiced their opinions and had a hearing.
It is understood that many would be against them while Vito Corleone is watching.
Those members were from AE911Truth. It takes 50 signatures to have a vote, and that's where the 50 signatures came from.

So let's add these 50 structural engineers to the independents.
What 50 structural engineers?
Source, please. You cited 50 signatures, but I would like to see a source that those 50 signatures were
all structural engineers. I hope you're not getting the facts wrong
again.

Let's get back to my original question - do you have any independent engineer or architect who supports the fantasy of 3 buildings falling perfectly into their footprint in 10 seconds each due to office fires?
First, I will correct you again on leaving out a component of the collapses of the Twin Towers...
the impacts of the planes. You know, the point where the collapses started from? You keep conveniently leaving that out every time you mention the collapses. The Twin Towers did not collapse from fire alone...nobody on the 'official story' side says this, so every time you pretend that's the explanation, I have to wonder if you're being intentionally dishonest, or if you don't realize that the collapses were a result of failure of the structure at the impact points because of structural damage, and further weakening by the fires. It's been almost 14 years, so it would be nice if you would get the story correct at this point.
I am happy to give you a list of scientific papers on the collapses that were introduced to legitimate, peer-reviewed journals. What will you say about them? I suspect it will go just like your appeal to AIA...as soon as you see that they don't agree with your conclusion, you'll write them off as being afraid of the bogeyman, or as part of the conspiracy.
What is your definition of 'independent'? It appears to be, 'anyone that tells me what I already believe', particularly if all they have to do is sign a petition, even if they're a landscape architect. "We don't have time (14 years) to write a scientific paper!"
Edial said:
And after that NIST did not even recommend how to improve the design of such buildings.
That's not what NIST does. They aren't an architectural design firm, so your criticism is misplaced. However, other organizations did make recommendations, based on peer-reviewed papers about the collapses. You'll just accuse them of being 'in on it' anyway, so what's new?
Edial said:
Do you realize this means
every modern building is unsafe to work in and needs to be condemned?
I covered this above...since you misrepresent why the Twin Towers collapsed, this isn't even a bad joke.
I'm sorry that your appeal to having a majority of architects and engineers on your side failed so badly, but you won't recover from it by misrepresenting the collapses or simply accusing anyone who doesn't agree with you as being too scared to speak up or part of the conspiracy. That's sheer desperation.
