Truth Jihad: My Epic Struggle Against the 9/11 Big Lie Paperback – Illustrated, April 11, 2007

by Kevin Barrett (Author)

12 ratings

Millions of people now know the main arguments for the thesis 9/11 was an inside job, starting from the controlled demolition of the World Trade Center buildings No. 1, 2 and 7. Even a champion of orthodoxy like Time Magazine was obliged to note that the 9/11 Truth Movement is no longer a fringe phenomenon. It is a mainstream reality. Kevin Barrett takes this now-familiar thesis as a springboard to new territory in this book. Like Jack Kerouac in On the Road, Barrett has written a gospel for a new generation of post - 9/11 sceptics.This ebullient book strikes a confident keynote for this sudden coming of age. It is a tonic draft of courage for millions of disenfranchised 9/11 truthers - and for the uneasy majority who sense that America, once a beacon of ideals for humanity, is no longer on the right track. Truth Jihad is the first 9/11 Truth book that is not primarily tasked with proving 9/11 was an inside job to our fellow humanity.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Barrett, a Muslim convert and Islamic studies professor, is neither hysterical nor a fool, but a thoughtful, questioning and careful man whose outrage nevertheless overwhelms evidence in support of his belief that the tragic events of 9/11 "had been an obvious inside job ... and that the perpetrators are hiding in plain sight, in 'undisclosed locations' at the highest levels of the US government." Barrett brings up many intriguing points, such as the contention, central to many 9/11 conspiracy theories, that the towers fell as a result of controlled demolition, and an intriguing anecdote about the ease with which mainstream media-even French media, "three times as smart and four times as skeptical as their American counterparts"-can be duped. Though his tangents into topics such as religion, UFOs and 9/11 jokes are enlightening, and his sociological observations are often insightful-such as his take on the "new pseudo-religion of post-9/11 'patriotism,'" beget by "spectacular human sacrifice" and "mirroring the worst kind of Christian tradition, itself based on the human-sacrifice image of the Crucifixion"-he doesn't back conclusions with hard facts, directing readers to other books and Web sites to learn the "truth." Though Barrett struggles mightily to make an objective case for the government's culpability in 9/11, raising some worthy points along the way, he's preaching to the converted.

Ragedly composed, and expressed, these are the strengths of this unguarded disorderly passionate book. Of course we need Cheny, Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz on the gallons, look what they have done!
Barett puzzles the reader as he wanders through his life - why is he telling us all this? Then he starts in on the psychopaths, our leaders. Haven't we heard all this before? Must he detail every insult and his responses to his critics? Well why not? He selflessly recommends the more calm work of Griffin and others and restrained himself enough to get a PHD. Let's welcome our allies and Barrett is an ally, we need him, he says it, says what needs saying.
Barrett discusses folklore, myths, legends and he has read and reports on many books. His exuberance and unrestrained mouthing off improbably coupled with careful, well studied points of view make page after page interesting. God bless those who hire, publish and repeat Kevin Barrett.

Juvenile, Narcissistic, and Embarrassing

Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2009

Judging a book by its cover is normally poor practice, but the semiotic justice of this cover portraying the author engaging in symbolic autofellation makes such judgment apt.

Barrett fell in love with his own image on FOX TV news back in 2006 and never got over himself. The book's opening is revealing: "It was just a few days after Steve Nass had made me famous." Like we should care? "Call me Ishmael" it's not. As presidents tend to confuse maintenance of their own public image with national security, Barrett came to confuse his own self-promotion with 9/11 Truth. His incorporation of his own (presumably previously unpublished) poetry in his text suggests the author had a high degree of artistic control in this work.

The book's title, juxtaposing the word "truth" with about the most despised word in the English language, does about as much damage as any two words can do to the 9/11 Truth movement. His insistence that "jihad" means what Barrett wants it to mean (struggle and self-improvement) and not what it means to the American mainstream (religious war) reveals a solipsistic myopia that serves to marginalize truthers in proportion to the influence and attention Barrett gets. His disregard over the years for journalistic standards of accuracy and verifiability certainly shows truth to be a struggle for him, and recent interviews suggest he's losing the fight for self-improvement as well. Unfortunately, Barrett considers himself a leader of the truth movement, and the mainstream media are happy to cast him in the "Kooky Truther" story they love so well. Barrett obligingly trips himself up on facts.

In promoting another book Barrett appeared on a mainstream AM radio station that reaches half the country, revealing an amazing ignorance about the Nuremberg trials while claiming to be an expert in international law. He also characterized the holocaust as "toasting six million Jews", demonstrating a cultural insensitivity that lends credence to the suspicions of many of us that his alleged interfaith organization, the Muslim Jewish Christian Alliance, has been a sham organization--nothing more than a website--all along.

Lays it on the line for truth in an entertaining way

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2007

The still diffuse 9/11 Truth Movement has been making quite an impact on public awareness over the past two or three years, with many significant works emerging. Dr. Barrett, as a writer and an organizer of seminars, ranks right up there in the pantheon of intellectually and physically courageous leaders devoting their "lives, fortunes, and sacred honor" to bringing the lies down and bringing the liars to justice.

I've covered a few 9/11 exposés in my columns and reviews; I have a particular affinity for Dave McGowan's iconoclastic/ everyman hard-headed analysis proffered from the very next day after the crime via his cleverly named Website, Center for an Informed America. In fact, Davesweb analysis is what started my serious questioning of the official story...

A TRIP INTO THE TRUTH reviewed by Connie Cook Smith

Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2007

The strength of this book is the author's personality. Kevin Barrett is an articulate and original thinker and even a humorist who, at great sacrifice, allowed himself to be embroiled in the ugliest but most important topic of our time -- the overwhelming evidence that the 9/11 attacks were an inside job.

I don't think anyone embraces this perspective because they enjoy it. It is, in fact, NOT adequately embraced by the American public because it is so UN-enjoyable, so downright horrifying. But Kevin romps the reader through the truth as the master educator he is. And as indicated previously, his personality is so authentic and his style is so congenial, the reader feels safe in coming to terms with such a terrible topic at last.

This book is an opportunity to spend time with Kevin Barrett -- to hang out with an extremely good and honest man and to, well, yes -- ENJOY learning about this subject that is so hard but so necessary for all Americans to understand.

Enlightens and entertains

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2008

Among books on 9/11, Truth Jihad is in a category by itself -- it enlightens and entertains.

Kevin Barrett, in Truth Jihad -- a book that's hard to put down, mixes alternative views on 9/11, faith, philosophy, and humor. In doing so he reveals a lot of himself, his life since his college days, his battles with the establishment in attempting to seek the truth about 9/11, and his remarkable journey to Islam.

A mediocre read. I think it is obvious Dr. KB was strapped for cash here, and needed to make some quick dough. The book contains a lot about himself I don't care about, as much as I admire him, I don't care about his personal life on this level. The book could have been edited to a pamphlet.

Still Dr. Barrett is a helluva nice guy with more sense than most alternative news commentators put together. Get his latest books instead about the Paris false flags, they are must haves!!!!
