(YellowTimes.org) The conspiracy theories surrounding September 11 have been granted a certain legitimacy with an extensive article in the Holy of Holies. Alan Riding (NYT 26/6/02) ridicules "L'Effroyable Imposture" (The Horrifying Fraud) by Thierry Meyssan, a bestseller in Europe, which goes so far as to claim that the Pentagon was struck by an air-to-ground missile fired by the U.S. Air Force and the planes which struck the World Trade Center were flown by similar elements in the US government. Riding hastens to add that the book was quickly followed up by a critique "L'Effroyable Mensonge" (The Horrifying Lie) by Jean Guisnel and Guillaume Dasique.
Curiously, he does not seem to be aware that the same Dasique earlier wrote Osama bin Laden: The Forbidden Truth with Jean-Charles Brisard, describing a no less conspiratorial connection between September 11th and a stalled plan to build a pipeline to exploit the vast natural gas fields along the Caspian Sea in Turkmenistan. Their story pointed damning fingers at American petroleum companies and the Bush administration, citing instances where U.S. anti-terrorism efforts were thwarted in order to smooth the way for the pipeline deal.
