“[I]t is ambition enough to be employed as an under-labourer in clearing the ground a little,
and removing some of the rubbish that lies in the way to knowledge.” —John Locke, 1689

“[P]hilosophy can no more show a man what he should attach importance to
than geometry can show a man where he should stand.” —Peter Winch, 1968

Scholars for 9/11 Truth

Here is the website of Scholars for 9/11 Truth. One of the members (indeed, a co-chair) is Jim Fetzer, a longtime philosophy professor at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Here are two paragraphs from the organization's website:

These experts contend that books and articles by members and other associates have established that the World Trade Center was almost certainly brought down by controlled demolitions and that the available relevant evidence casts grave doubt on the government's official story about the attack on the Pentagon.

They believe that the government not only permitted 9/11 to occur but may even have orchestrated these events to facilitate its political agenda.

Interesting, no? Either our government is corrupt on a massive scale or the members of this organization suffer from paranoid schizophrenia. Given the prevalence of Bush Derangement Syndrome in society at large, and particularly in academia, I opt for the latter.

Addendum: Here is Michelle Malkin's blog post about "the 9/11 tinfoil hat brigade."

Watch "The Path to 9/11".

Was the first WTC attack a "hoax" too?
