Inspired by David Ray Griffin's internationally acclaimed
book The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the
Bush Administration and 9/11, this anthology presents a
variety of perspectives on 9/11 and empire from authors who
identify with one of the major Abrahamic traditions.
Co-edited by a major Christian theologian (John Cobb), a
Jewish scholar (Sandra Lubarsky), and a Muslim scholar
(Kevin Barrett), the book features essays by 9/11
revisionists and activists alongside those of noted writers
and scholars, including several of the leading religious
intellectuals of our time. The writers offer reflections on
9/11 and empire informed by the moral principles of their
religious traditions as well as by the obligation to engage
in thoughtful dialogue with those of other traditions. While
the question of of the Bush administration's and Us military
and intelligence leaders' possible complicity in 9/11- and
the moral implications of facing that possibility-is at the
forefront of the book's agenda, it also addresses the way
9/11 has been used to expand the US empire's "global
domination project"-raising profound moral questions that
confront all of us, whatever our views on 9/11 complicity
and whatever our faith, worldview, or national/ethnic
identification.
