Title: Critics Demand Resignation of U.N. Official Who Wants Probe of 9/11 'Inside Job' Theories

Critics are calling for the resignation of a U.N. official who publicly supports investigating theories that the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were an "inside job."

Richard Falk, the special rapporteur on human rights in the Palestinian territories, investigates alleged Israeli violations of human rights law for the U.N.'s Human Rights Council.

But the former Princeton professor would also like to investigate whether "some sort of controlled explosion from within" destroyed the Twin Towers, he told FOXNews.com.

"I do think there are questions that haven't been answered, questions about the way the buildings collapsed and the failure to heed a variety of signals that there was danger coming," Falk said.

"I think [his beliefs are] fruitcake city, but among many delegations to the U.N. it's probably the conventional wisdom," said John Bolton, a former U.S. ambassador to the U.N. known for his straight talk on U.N. hypocrisy.

But Hillel Neuer, executive director of U.N. Watch, a non-governmental organization that monitors the U.N., wants Falk removed from his job.

"He should resign," said Neuer, who raised concerns about Falk's ability to be an objective observer. Neuer has also criticized Falk for being biased against Israel.

"If he were a principled person he would recognize the fact that he has very extreme views," Neuer said.

In 2004, Falk wrote the forward to "The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11," a book written by David Ray Griffin, a Sept. 11 conspiracy theorist.

Griffin's book argues that the Twin Towers may have been brought down by a "controlled demolition" — not by two airliners hijacked by Al Qaeda operatives — and that the Pentagon may not have been hit by a plane at all.

Griffin "doesn't take a so-called conspiracy view and he raises questions that haven't been answered," Falk told FOXNews.com. "I think [the book] deserved to be published and I have no regrets about that."

Falk said that while he supports alternative theories behind the World Trade Center attack, he doesn't claim the U.S. government was responsible.

"I'm an agnostic on the issue," he said.

But Bolton is hardly agnostic on the issue of Falk's views.

"It's just an example of the inmates running the asylum," Bolton said. "It's a particularly graphic example for Americans, but this is not an aberration — this is, unfortunately, typical of much of what goes on" at the U.N.

A spokesman for the office of Louise Arbour, the U.N. high commissioner for human rights, declined to comment on Falk.

"As a matter of practice, we do not offer commentaries on individual special rapporteurs," wrote spokesman Rupert Colville in an e-mail to FOXNews.com. "There are some 27 of them in all, and if we started making character judgments on one or two of them, it would never stop. They are mandated to do their work by the Human Rights Council."

But Falk's support for Sept. 11 conspiracy theories isn't the only thing that has critics up in arms.

In an online article for the Transnational Foundation for Peace and Future Research last year, Falk — prior to his appointment as an unbiased human rights investigator — compared Israeli actions in Gaza to the Nazi treatment of Jews. This may have led to his appointment as the rapporteur for the Palestinian territories, Bolton said.

"He was picked for a reason, and the reason is not to have an objective assessment — the objective is to find more ammunition to go after Israel," Bolton said.

Neuer said Falk is not the only special rapporteur to bring a bias to the job. "You have people who are, I would say, a wolf in sheep's clothing who are implementing the agenda of dictatorships," he said.

"It's tragic because there are human rights victims around the world who could greatly benefit from a champion, including in the Middle East. ...

"Many of the rapporteurs do good work, do important work, report on how countries are respecting or not respecting laws around the world," Neuer said.

Falk maintained he was an appropriate choice for the job. "I think I'm an informed observer and I'm unbiased in the sense that I have always done the best to tell the truth as I see it," he said.

Despite his calls for Falk's resignation, Neuer did not expect him to be censured or removed.

"I don't think there's going to be any move in the council to do anything about his appointment," he said.

Falk, asked whether he'd be surprised if further investigations revealed the U.S. government's role in Sept. 11, told FOXNews.com, "Yes, I'd be surprised — not shocked but surprised."

He then reconsidered, and said: "No, I'd be shocked."

This article is just more evidence that the Jews did 9/11.

No. Certainly it would seem that a circumstantial case can be made for Israeli, not the generic "Jews", participation in the 911 PsyOp False Flag Terra' event but they did not have the reach or control to get inside the Oval Orofice, or into Cheney's sick and twisted mind. No, the Israelis knew about it and it is likely that Israeli/American Zionists were involved but they did not pull this op off - there were merely participants under someone else's control.

Pull it, he said.

This "someone else" (as if it's one person), he wouldn't by any chance be a zionist, would he?

Thank you. Each post you make adds to the pattern and allows me to analyse who you work for.

So, narrowing it down it is likely AIPAC, JINSA, Some Military or Intel Agency, or you are simply another hate filled Hasbara sowing disinformation and attempting to create flame wars and other disruptions.

In any event you clearly identify yourself for what you are.

It was more than likely the work of not JUST Zionists, but also of multi- national corporations and political bodies who are not only staging false flag events for profit and gain, but to lead us onto a path for a true police state, which WILL lead us to a New World Order..

So it goes BEYOND simple Zionsim, where in fact, if those behind the scenes get their wish and manage to provoke a war with Iran, it will be Israel's downfall as it is caught in a cloud of lethal radioactive fallout from tactical and/or strategic thermonuclear weapons launched by the likes of Pakistan, Russia, and/or China, or even the US if Iran were to sink US carrier fleets within its reach.

Well sure, the Chinese probably said "great, have a good time fucking yourselves on 9/11."

Without the zionists, it's NOTHING. It's deader in the water than the USS Liberty. It's "pull it" dead. Financial geniuses, how do we get rid of all this asbestos? Lightning?

When Israel is glowing green for several million years after the NWO manages to start a nuclear war in the Middle East, tell me how the Zionists have benefitted from it.

I think simple greed and ignorance has motivated MANY true Zionists to go along with the 9/11 attacks and perhaps the Mossad was operationally involved, but I don't see them as the true puppeteers in all of this. There are others who don't give a damn about Zionism or Israel, and they are the ones who know the real agenda and are the REAL threats to the world as we know it.

Hilarious. Lobotomy outpatient, definitely. How you can leave it hanging like that? Amazingly cartoonish.

Let's see what makes nobody tick;

A) Anyone who comments on 9/11 is a zionist.

B) Anyone who came from LP is a zionist.

C) Anyone who gives nobody a hard time is a zionist.

D) Zionists are out to get nobody, and hide under his bed at night.

Yep, that pretty much defines what nobody is all about.

But it really does sound like you are defending Zionists there and painting nobody with a rather large leap in logic lacking factual basis, doesn't it?

Through numerous threads on many forums, I have decided whomever throws out the "Jew Hater" and/or "anti-semite" characterization/labels loses all credibility.

I attempt to no longer engage in unprovable agent provocateur conundrums.

Therefore, I shall now move on to the issue of this thread:

Anyone seeking to discredit/destroy/silence a critic of Amerisreal's verison of 09/11, is the enemy of America and Americans. But for Isreal, the World Trade Centers would still be standing.

Idiot. I didn't call anyone a jew-hater, I said people such as you and nobody make the entire site appear to be jew-haters, more than likely by design.

Although I WILL call you that now, as you DO obviously hate them.
