I must confess that I've never heard of Kees Van der Pijl, so when I read at 
the start of the Prof's lengthy paper that 'in reply to a Twitter message 
summing up a series of crimes ascribed to "Saudis", beginning with their 
alleged responsibility for bringing down the Twin Towers, I posted, "Not 
Saudis, Israelis brought down the Twin Towers with help from Zionists in US 
Govt!"', I thought that he was perhaps being sarcastic, taking the mickey out 
of conspiracy theories. Then I read through the paper only to find out that he 
really believes this nonsense, that the World Trade Center buildings were 
demolished by controlled explosions, and so on and so forth. I'm rather glad I 
studied History at UCL rather than International Relations at Sussex.
