“On September 11, 2001, 19 suicide commandos of Middle Eastern descent seized four jetliners, already airborne and loaded with flammable fuel, and attempted to use them as high-octane, human-guided missiles.” Liberty, Equality, Power (American History text) p. 839
TOPICS:
KEYWORDS: 911
This is what American publishers are offering our college students. Seems they are bending waaaay over to kiss someone's backside.

This is the best they can do? It should read "On September 11, 2001, 19 suicide commandos of
allegedly Middle Eastern descent seized four jetliners, already airborne and loaded with flammable fuel, and attempted to use them as high-octane, human-guided missiles
accidentally disrupting planned demolitions of the WTC and the Pentagon by the JOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSS There, that's better.

They weren't Commandos. They were Islamic Terrorist.
They didn't attempt, they did it.
Do you have a link to the publisher?

"accidentally disrupting planned demolitions of the WTC "
Which is why both towers collapsed neatly into their own footprints and why firemen reported hearing explosions in the basement!
LOL!

Conveniently missing from this is the fact that there were passengers on board the planes as well.

The Lib. have control of our children's minds from pre-school through college. Parents need to keep up with their child's curriculum in order to set them straight. BTW: Welcome to FR! Enjoy the ride.

So far I have had one visit from the publisher's rep but no call or message from the publisher.
I'm dumping their Western Civ Text I have used for years and am searching for a publisher dedicated to a little more reality in History.
