Whence Anti-American Terrorism?


by Ivan Eland

On Sept. 6-7, 2005, the New America Foundation hosted "Terrorism, Security & America's Purpose," a policy forum featuring scholars, elected officials, intelligence experts, and journalists. A full list of speakers is available here.

Ivan Eland is senior fellow and director of the Center on Peace & Liberty at The Independent Institute in Oakland, Calif. Eland's presentation challenges the conventional wisdom about the roots of 9/11, with reference to his years of research on the subject. (10 minutes; requires Windows Media Player.)
