9/11 'revisionist' allowed to teach
Al Jazeera | July 11, 2006
An instructor at the University of Wisconsin who has said he believes US officials orchestrated the September 11, 2001 attacks, will be allowed to teach a course on Islam.
Some state politicians had called for the University of Wisconsin-Madison to fire Kevin Barrett, a part-time instructor, after he spoke about his theories on a radio talk show last month.
The university provost, Patrick Farrell, said in a statement late on Monday: "We cannot allow political pressure from critics of unpopular ideas to inhibit the free exchange of ideas.
"To the extent that his views are discussed, Mr Barrett has assured me that students will be free and encouraged to challenge his viewpoint."
Barrett can present his view as one of many perspectives on the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington DC when he teaches Islam: Religion and Culture this fall, Farrell said.
Farrell began a review after Barrett said he believed the attacks were the result of a conspiracy designed to cause war in the Middle East.
Barrett said he was happy the school "did the right thing".
"This university is a pretty professional organisation that is not going to buckle from political pressure from politicians," he said.
Criticism
Politicians who had called for Barrett's dismissal criticised the decision.
Matt Canter, a spokesman for the governor, Jim Doyle, said: "The governor would have come to a different conclusion about this."
Steve Nass, a state representative, said he would push next year for cuts to the university's budget.
The university does not endorse Barrett's theories, Farrell said, noting that they are widely believed in parts of the Muslim world.

Congress is pushing a law that would abandon the Internet's First Amendment -- a principle called Network Neutrality that prevents companies like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast from deciding which Web sites work best for you -- based on what site pays them the most. If the public doesn't speak up now, our elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying campaign.

9/11 Icon Bill Doyle Openly Condemns US Government Complicity and Cover-up
9/11 Commission
Relentless 9/11 activist Bill Doyle, father of Joey Doyle, set up the first email communication network for 9/11 families, which now connects over 7,000 victim relatives. He is also a co-founder of 9/11 Families for a Secure America and a lead plaintiff in the trillion dollar "Saudi suit" filed by 9/11 Families United to Bankrupt Terrorism. Having to deal and maintain trust with the entire political spectrum of 9/11 kin, Bill has naturally been reluctant to take his own thoughts public, but Friday, July 6th, on the Alex Jones Show Bill finally outed his highly accusatory personal opinions on the 9/11 cover-up, government complicity, and the fact that perhaps half of his family network now feels the same way. - Ed.
Right now there is no transcript, just the mp3 audio file here, but here are a few quotes from the interview transcribed by the intrepid 911blogger and Alex's webmaster:
Jones: Sir you have questions about the official story don't you?
Doyle: Oh, without question... the 9/11 Commission - that's all a fallacy... The 9/11 commission is probably the worst representation of the 9/11 families, or for that matter the American public, because it is a sham, it really is. We had tons of questions that we asked them to ask, they wouldn't do it, and the continuing coverup is just beyond belief.
