The University of Wisconsin-Madison announced Thursday that it would launch a review of an instructor who argues that the U.S. government orchestrated the Sept. 11 attacks for its own benefit.

The instructor, Kevin Barrett, is co-founder of an organization called the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance, which claims the Bush administration planned the attacks to create a war between Muslims and Christians. He argues that members of the faiths must work together to overcome the belief that terrorists were to blame.

"The 9/11 lie was designed to sow hatred between the faiths," Barrett has written on the organization's Web site.

"Either we discuss the compelling evidence that 9/11 was an inside job, or there is precious little to talk about."

1. He is oh so right

and that racist hysteria is probably the most sickening part of the whole thing. Gets big box office everywhere, that's for sure.

2. No kidding, just ask why WTC 7 was pulled and you'll have the proof

or why Cheney was whisked away to a secure location, yet Cokehead was left to read "My Pet Goat" where everyone knew he would be thus a potential target.
