Ward Churchill went off on the O'Reilly show saying America deserved it for all the shit we've done since forever. He said the people who died in the towers were "little Eichmanns." He was a tenured professor but that didn't stop the University of Colorado from removing him. Pretty sure he's blacklisted.
Eh, even if he means that in the sense of capitalism in general, still not good. Plenty of working class people died their share on that day.
Doesn't change the fact that the first sentence would have gotten him blacklisted anyway, of course.
Yeah most people who died in 9/11 are more comparable to Germans who died in the bombing of Dresden than top-level Nazis. He was probably just being hyperbolic to make a point so, not literally it, but based imo.
