2010 MUJCA Changes Ahead
Lou Stolzenberg has served
as MUJCA Coordinator for the last two years. She has appreciated the
opportunity to work with others in pursuit of 9/11 truth.
However, Lou needs to balance her commitments and has resigned on February
7, 2010. She will continue to encourage others to learn about the need for
9/11 truth.
She wishes to thank the web mistress and those who have assisted her as
Coordinator.
The MUJCA Steering Committee will be discussing selection of a new
Coordinator.
MUJCA-NET was founded by Dr. Kevin Barrett of Madison,
Wisconsin, a scholar of Islam and literature, and Imam Faiz Khan M.D. of New
York City, a 9/11 first responder who teaches at Long Island Jewish
Hospital. Both have been appalled by 9/11 and the ever-increasing violence
it has brought us, and both are particularly unhappy with the silence of
their fellow Muslims on 9/11 truth. Their
Open Letter to Our Brothers and Sisters in
the Abrahamic Tradition expresses their
views on 9/11 truth and the reasons an interfaith effort like MUJCA-NET is
so necessary.
The other endorsers of MUJCA-NET do not necessarily agree
with all of the co-founders’ positions. (Indeed, the co-founders themselves
do not hold precisely identical views on everything.) But all of us at MUJCA-NET
recognize that the gaping holes in the official 9/11 story mandate a new and
genuine investigation aimed specifically at either confirming or refuting
allegations of official complicity.
Co-Founders' Biographies
Here are brief biographies of MUJCA-NET co-founders Kevin
Barrett and Faiz Khan:
Dr. Kevin Barrett, co-founder of the
Muslim-Christian-Jewish Alliance for
9/11 Truth, has taught English, French, Arabic, American Civilization,
Humanities, African Literature, Folklore, and Islam at colleges and
universities in the San Francisco Bay area, Paris, and Madison, Wisconsin.
He is the author of
Truth Jihad: My Epic Struggle Against
the 9/11 Big Lie and
the editor of
9/11 and American Empire: Christians,
Jews and Muslims Speak Out.
Barrett grew up in a family of lapsed Unitarians (which is about as
lapsed as it gets) and reverted to Islam in 1993, a move that gradually
impressed upon him the gravity of the moral choices we make in this life.
Barrett’s dissertation is on Islam and Moroccan legend. He is also the
author and illustrator of the cult classic
A Guide to Mysterious
San Francisco, published under the pseudonym of “Dr. Weirde.” (He
begs Allah’s forgiveness for that slightly twisted book.) Barrett became a
9/11 truth activist in 2004 after reading David Griffin’s
The New Pearl Harbor
and conducting follow-up research that convinced him Griffin had accurately
summarized evidence indicating 9/11 was an inside job.
In July 2004 he rashly rejected a plum post-doc at the University of
California because it was funded by the 9/11-disinformation-sponsoring
CIA-linked Ford Foundation. In the summer of 2006, Republican state
legislators and Fox newscasters demanded that Barrett be fired from his job
teaching an introductory Islam class at the University of Wisconsin-Madison,
but the University refused to buckle, and
Barrett got high marks
from his students. Turned down for a tenure-track job at the
University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, and later other teaching jobs, due to
his political opinions, Barrett plans to continue fighting for academic
freedom until he and other truth-seeking scholars are vindicated. He has
appeared in several documentary films,
lectures widely on 9/11
and
hosts three radio
programs on three different patriot networks, as well as a
daily news show on Pacifica Radio.
Dr. Faiz Khan is a Muslim scholar and educator as well as
an M.D. with a dual specialty in emergency and internal medicine. He has
been living and working in New York City since 1969. A 9/11 first responder,
he has been in the forefront of post-9/11 peace and education efforts in New
York and elsewhere. He is well-known as a staunchly outspoken opponent of
terror in all its guises, and has participated in two memorial services for
the victims of 9/11, as well as the New York group Muslims Against
Terrorism. Dr. Khan is the author of
“9/11: An Islamic Perspective” published
by Belief Net in their selection of essays on religion and 9/11. An
Assistant Imam at two New York area mosques, Dr. Kahn has treated subjects
related to Islam, politics, and 9/11 at numerous speaking engagements and
publications. He also served as assistant producer to the film
Becoming Muslim – Submitting to Allah in America.
Dr. Khan writes of his extensive educational efforts post-9/11: “Among my
goals has been to clearly demonstrate that the recurrent cycles of violence
witnessed of late havenothing to do with authentic practice of any religion;
rather, it is lack thereof which is combined with various geopolitical,
social and economic/corporate agendas which serve as root causes that often
hide in the guise of religion or just as
often, if not more frequently, political ideology – a trend
which only superficial or irresponsible analyses fail to elucidate.”

Endorsers' Biographies
Here is information on some of MUJCA-NET’s most prominent
endorsers (new endorsers please
send a brief biography if you want to be
mentioned here or correct anything we've said about you):
Dr. David Griffin, one of America’s notable theologians,
teaches ethics and theology at Claremont School of Theology in California.
The author of more than twenty books on philosophy, theology and related
topics, and
a pioneer of process theology, Dr.
Griffin brought the 9/11 Truth Movement into the mainstream with his
publication of
The New Pearl Harbor in 2004 and
The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions and
Distortions in 2005.
Listen to a December 2004 hour-long Flashpoints
(Pacifica) interview with Dr. Griffin.
Catherine Austin Fitts served as Assistant Secretary of
Housing in the Bush I administration. She is a Christian whose
religiously-inspired ideals led her into a dangerous battle with criminal
syndicates manipulating big-city housing markets. In recent years, she has
been an eloquent voice for 9/11 truth. Her
letter to Condoleeza Rice, written after
Rice’s ludicrous testimony to the Kean-Zelikow Commission, was one of the
most powerful 9/11 truth statements of 2004.
Israel Shamir, Russian-Israeli intellectual, writer,
translator and journalist, is one of Israel’s leading peace activists. The
decendent of a rabbi from Palestine, and an IDF veteran of the 1973 war,
Shamir changed languages and traded in his literary-intellectual hat to
become an activist in response to the terrible events of 2001. Here is his
explanation: A Jewish folk tale relates the story of a mute child who had never said a
word despite all the efforts of the doctors. Then one day, at the ripe age
of ten, he dropped his spoon and cried out, "The soup is too salty!" His
parents asked him in amazement why he had kept silent for years, and the
child replied, "Until now, everything was all right". Read more
