Appearing on an Iranian TV 9/11 special, the former head of the Islamic Center in Washington DC, Muhammad Al-Asi, accused the US government of carrying out the September 11 attacks. (Video courtesy of MEMRI TV.)

Please note: earlier this month Al-Asi presented a paper titled “Islamophobia: Its Causes and Cures” at the second annual conference of the Muslim Congress in Houston, Texas.

Presenter: “According to initial speculations, Al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden himself were identified as the main culprits [in 9/11]. Further expert analysis, however, raised other possibilities.”

Muhammad Al-’Asi, former head of the Islamic Center, Washington, D.C.: “The events of 9/11 were planned by the American administration, to be used as a pretext and justification to fight terrorism.”

[…]

French author Thierry Meyssan: “Organizing acts of terrorism on such a scale and with such precision would not have been possible without the aid of American administration bodies, such as the White House and the Pentagon.”

[…]

“Donald Rumsfeld said, several days prior to 9/11, that a tremendous, unique disaster was going to occur. He said he was wishing for such a thing to happen, so that there would be a national leap and so that he would be able to carry out his policy.”

[…]

David Musa Pidcock, leader of the Islamic Party of Britain: “Pearl Harbor was similar to 9/11 in that they were both planned in advance. Twelve days before the attack on Pearl Harbor, [U.S. Secretary of War] Stimson, one of America’s lords of war, went to the White House with several navy commanders, and talked about the war against Japan. The question was how they could trick the Japanese into firing the first shot, without any great danger being directed against the Americans. Therefore, the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 was similar to what happened on 9/11. We know very well that it was planned with precision.”

I feel it's better to sing about these things ourselves and perform them with the people who it happened to than to have some journalist one day say 'then in 1971, one time when they were at the mudshark hotel...' But people have problems with things of a glandular nature in connection with things of a musical nature. They say why, music is way up here, and glands are way down there and they can't get 'em together, but then they are hypocritical because they take a band that doesn't sing about such things directly and couches their language a little and does it with a little choreography and say that that's great and that's real rock and roll. I maintain that there's no difference, we're just honest enough to get up and say 'this is this and that's that and here you are and respond to it' and the response is 'why... I'm hip, but of course I am offended'.
