Slate: Architect of 9/11
Turns out a 9/11 hijacker was really into good urban policy.
After securing an interview with Atta’s thesis adviser, professor Dittmar Machule, the reporter concluded it was “ludicrous that Atta’s ideas on how to preserve an old quarter of Aleppo are regarded as a window into his terrorist’s mind.” Machule bolstered this impression, telling the Associated Press that the thesis had “no anti-Americanism, no anti-Zionism, no anti-Christianity, just good thinking.”
Blink, blink.
