Longer version: Kevin Barrett, Ph.D., an American Muslim and Islamic Studies scholar, is one of America’s best-known critics of the War on Terror. A specialist in North African Studies and Sufism, his career underwent a sudden shift in 2006, when Wisconsin state legislator Steve Nass and 60 Republican colleagues demanded he be fired from his teaching position at the University of Wisconsin-Madison due to remarks he made on Jessica McBride’s WTMJ radio show characterizing 9/11 as a false flag operation. Although UW-Madison initially refused to fire him and his students gave him high marks, the witch-hunt created an un-erasable Internet “paper trail” that left him “politically unemployable,” as whistleblowers on two hiring committees, including Dr. Howard Ross at U.W.-Whitewater, have observed. Since then Dr. Barrett has authored and edited several books, including Truth Jihad (2007), 9/11 and American Empire, Vol. 2 (2007), Questioning the War on Terror (2008), We Are NOT Charlie Hebdo (2015), ANOTHER French False Flag (2016) and Orlando False Flag (2016). He translated and published From Yahweh to Zion by Laurent Guyenot (2018).

Dr. Barrett has appeared many times on Fox, CNN, PBS and other broadcast outlets. He has inspired feature stories and op-eds in The New York Times, The Christian Science Monitor, The Chicago Tribune, and other mainstream publications. He also authored the first three mainstream American newspaper op-eds (in The Capital Times of Madison, Wisconsin) calling 9/11 a false flag operation, and organized Dr. David Ray Griffin’s April 2005 talk at UW-Madison which was nationally telecast on C-SPAN.

A former teacher at colleges and universities in Paris, the San Francisco Bay Area, and Wisconsin, Dr. Barrett currently works as author, podcast host, False Flag Weekly News host, columnist at Unz.com, American Free Press, VT Foreign Policy (formerly Veterans Today), and Crescent International, and international TV pundit. His websites are TruthJihad.com and KevinBarrett.substack.com.
