I stand corrected about Hufschmid appearing at the 2004 9-11 event -- I had it mixed with another event almost 2 months before where Hufschmid was on the line up on February 2, 2004, which aired on KPFA on February 16, 2004:

"A KPFA Special Broadcast: Behind Every Terrorist There is a Bush - An Evening of Comedy, Music, Art, Film, and Censored Truth This KPFA Sponsored Event which took place February 2, 2004 featured Will Durst, René Hicks, Bill Santiago, David Rovics, Drew Dillinger, Carol Brouillet, Eric Hufschmid, and more. A Benefit for International Inquiry into 9-11." http://www.kpfa.org/highlights/index.php?airdate=2004-02-16

The audio is not archived so I cannot confirm which segments were aired on KPFA but I will see if anyone at the station knows.

But does it matter if Eric Hufschmid was part of a KPFA sponsored event, which also featured (and, I believe, was organized by) KPFA programmers and board members, once or twice in 2004 or in 2003? What's going on when KPFA is sponsoring events that feature pro-Minute Men racists like Alex Jones of infowars.org(apparently invited to the March 2004 event, although not on the final roster) and Lyndon LaRouche disciple Webster Tarpley (on the final panel for the March, 2004 event). Is it at all strange that these unsavory characters happen to be 9/11 conspiracy theorists or is the standard for credibility set really low in the 9/11 universe?

Here's a gem posted by Alex Jones titled "Illegal Alien Crime Wave in Full Swing": "Complex problems are associated with illegal aliens who commit crimes. Criminal aliens tend to be drug-oriented and violent, often preying on members of their own cultures." http://infowars.org/articles/immigration/illegal_alien_crimewave_in_full_swing.htm

If that doesn't turn your stomach, try this posting, "The Hilarious Auschwitz Story," on the Global Research site, which Michel Chossudovsky moderates and seems to see fit to leave up: http://globalresearch.ca.myforums.net/viewtopic.php?t=1432

You don't think his lack of credibility, as a Holocaust denier, has no bearing on whether he's credible on 9-11?
