BRANDEIS PROFESSOR: BIN LADEN NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR 9/11

American Professor: Bin Laden NOT Responsible for 9/11 (MEMRI)
Dr. Natana DeLong-Bas, a lecturer in theology at Boston College and a visiting lecturer in Islamic Studies at Brandeis University, as well as a former teacher and researcher at Georgetown University's Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, was interviewed by Al-Sharq Al-Awsat in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where she said that the western media has given Osama bin Laden more status than he deserves. She added:

"I do not find any evidence that makes me agree that Osama bin Laden was behind the attack on the twin trade towers. All we have heard from him was simply a praise and commendation of those who had carried out the operation."

She said she was visiting Saudi Arabia for the second time, this time with her husband and two sons, so that they will discover for themselves that not everything said about Saudi Arabia in the U.S. is accurate.
