NY Sun: U.N. Official Urged Commission to Study Neocon Role in 9/11

(This seems to be a somewhat misleading headline. What Falk actually did was make this comment on Kevin Barrett's radio show: "there should be an official investigation of the sort the 9/11 commission did not engage in". Mr. Falk has not used his newly-minted position as a UN official to form or suggest a new 9/11 Commission... yet. Is the NY Sun pulling a "pre-emptive strike" on any possible moves by Falk? In an echo of the Ahmadinejad report, Lake is eager to bring up past comments by Falk using the Holocaust as a metaphor for the treatment of the Palestinians. -rep.)

THE NEW YORK SUN REPORTS:

U.N. Official Urged Commission to Study Neocon Role in 9/11

By ELI LAKE, STAFF REPORTER OF THE SUN | April 9, 2008

WASHINGTON — A new U.N. Human Rights Council official assigned to monitor Israel is calling for an official commission to study the role neoconservatives may have played in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

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 of the sort the 9/11 commission did not engage in and that the failure to do these things is cheating the American people and in some sense the people of the world of a greater confidence in what really happened than they presently possess.”

Mr. Barrett, who is the co-founder of the Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth, said in an interview yesterday of Mr. Falk, “I would put him on a list of scholars who are sympathetic to the 9/11 truth movement.”

He added, “Unlike most public intellectuals today, he is both honest and very, very knowledgeable in that he understands the probable reality of 9/11. He understands that the evidence that it was a false flag operation is very strong.”
