Secretary-General and US Ambassador Call Law Professor’s Measured Remarks “Preposterous”
Richard Falk, retired Princeton University professor of international law and a United Nations-appointed human rights expert on the Human Rights Council, was blasted by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon for suggesting in his January 11 blog entry that there was a cover-up regarding some aspects of the official account of 9/11. Falk mentioned “the reluctance to address the sort of awkward gaps and contradictions in the official explanations” that David Ray Griffin documents in his books. Falk also wrote, “What may be more distressing than the apparent cover-up is the eerie silence of the mainstream media … What must we learn from all this? Don’t connect dots without evidence.”
Sec.-Gen. Ki-Moon condemned these remarks as “preposterous”.
UN Watch, a pressure group that monitors the U.N., is calling for Prof. Falk to be removed from his post on the Human Rights Council.
The high profile of the Sec.General’s ridicule of Falk’s remarks could bring some media attention to the 9/11 Truth movement. Flooding the UN with comments supportive of Falk could help make that happen. Carefully fact-checked comments pointing out the scientific evidence uncovered in recent years and how it conflicts with the official account should be faxed to Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon at (212) 963-3301 or emailed to pga65[at]un.org. Copies should also be sent to US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice at (212) 415-4053 or emailed to http://archive.usun.state.gov/Issues/Contact2.html. We will soon post updated versions of open letters we have written to other officials, such as http://www2.ae911truth.org/downloads/Letter_to_Shyam_Sunder_-_7-20-09a.pdf.
