But is it all just a pile of lunacy? If only it was, I could sleep much better at night. Unfortunately, beneath the mountain of theories and speculations, there remain disturbing and persistent anomalies that have yet to be resolved. In this respect, the mainstream medias approach to criticism of the 9/11 official narrative has been wanting in the extreme, focusing largely on bizarre pet theories and fringe speculations, suggesting that anybody who has doubts about the official story must be delusional, dumb, or both.
Collusion with the Enemy
In fact, overwhelming evidence confirms that al-Qaeda networks in the Middle East, Central Asia, the Balkans, the Caucasus and the Asia-Pacific, have been penetrated and manipulated by Western intelligence services. Conspiraloonery? If only it was. As I argue in my 3rd book, The War on Truth: 9/11, Disinformation and the Anatomy of Terrorism (2005), the evidence for this is extremely well-documented, deriving from innumerable, credible intelligence sources. But why? Largely to destabilize regional environments to pave the way for new security policies that serve to protect not people, but foreign investors taking over regional markets -- especially markets with significant oil and gas deposits.
Who Dunnit? Er, Ahem, Dont Ask, Were Still Not Sure
So what about 9/11 specifically? Five years on, even core elements of the official narrative taken for granted by the 9/11 Commission Report, remain absurdly unresolved. To this day, for example, the real identities of most of the alleged hijackers are unknown. In this years volume of the peer-reviewed journal Research in Political Economy, edited by economics professor Paul Zarembka of New York State University, Jay Kolar reviews credible reports from the BBC, CNN, and other mainstream sources around the world, confirming that at least ten of those named on the FBIs second and final list of 19 have turned up and been verified to be alive, with proof positive that at least one other hijacker, Ziad Jarrah, had his identity doubled, and therefore fabricated. Kolar argues that since many of the alleged hijackers are now alive, they must have had doubles using their identities as aliases.
And How Did They Do It? Er, Ahem, No Comment
Worse still, in yet another bizarre anomaly that the 9/11 Commissioners simply ignored
The WTC Collapse Anomaly
Even the official account of the collapse of the World Trade Center buildings is being increasingly disputed by some American scientists.
author of The London Bombings: An Independent Inquiry (www.independentinquiry.co.uk) and The War on Truth: 9/11, Disinformation and the Anatomy of Terrorism (Arris, Olive Branch, 2005). I teach undergraduate courses at the Department of International Relations, University of Sussex, Brighton, where Im currently a PhD candidate. My research is about the relationship between European imperialism since the 15th century, and Western practices of violence and genocide. Im also director of the Institute for Policy Research & Development, based in central London. My first book, The War on Freedom: How & Why America was Attacked, September 11, 2001, was an instant bestseller in the US, Germany and Italy, and won the latters Naples Prize. My 2nd book, Behind the War on Terror: Western Secret Strategy and the Struggle for Iraq, examines the role of energy in the pattern of Western interventionism in the Middle East since the collapse of the Ottomon Empire. My third book, The War on Truth, is my magnus opus on international terrorism. Shortly after its publication, I was fortunate enough to testify as an expert witness in US Congress about my research.
