U.N. Official Calls for Study Of Neocons' Role in 9/11

When last we left our unhinged and wacky friends who believe the US government was behind the 9/11 attacks, they were busy trying to recover from a History Channel gut punch that tore so many holes in their "theories" that that the fabric of the truther movement was rent asunder.

Now Trutherism has invaded the United Nations - with spectacularly ridiculous results:

On March 26, Richard Falk, Milbank professor of international law emeritus at Princeton University, was named by unanimous vote to a newly created position to report on human rights in the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs.

While Mr. Falk's specialty is human rights and international law, since the attacks in 2001, he has devoted some of his time to challenging what he calls the "9-11 official version." On March 24 in an interview with a radio host and former University of Wisconsin instructor, Kevin Barrett, Mr. Falk said,

"It is possibly true that especially the neoconservatives thought there was a situation in the country and in the world where something had to happen to wake up the American people. Whether they are innocent about the contention that they made that something happen or not, I don't think we can answer definitively at this point. All we can say is there is a lot of grounds for suspicion, there should be an official investigation..."
First, this is an example of the kind of morons they have serving on the UN Human Rights Committee.

[actually, that point will do - the place is UNsalvageable]
