U.S. Releases Osama Bin Laden's 'Bookshelf'
"The list includes several books steeped in conspiracy theory -- including about 9/11 itself -- with such titles as New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11, Secrets of the Federal Reserve and Bloodlines of the Illuminati. It also includes more cogent work on modern American history, including renowned U.S. journalist Bob Woodward's book Obama’s Wars, and two books on political power by MIT professor Noam Chomsky. There are also a number of books, reports and articles on al Qaeda, suggesting an interest in how the group is perceived in the West."

My point was that their choice of words and how they are trying to portray anyone left of center as a conspiracy anti-American nut job. All the while, repeatedly trashing higher education.
"The English-language bookshelf in Osama bin Laden’s personal library featured a collection of anti-U.S. polemics and left-wing conspiracy theories from some celebrated darlings of American academia,"
"It's ... not nearly as ideological in its anti-Westernism as you would find in many U.S. college social science courses."
But Bin Laden's books did include legitimate intellectual works and actually might be to the right of some college reading lists, according to Cornell University Law School Professor William Jacobson.

The lefties are guilty of blowing up the Twin Towers and Al Queda's terrorism in general because lefty books were found in bin Laden's bookshelf.
Similarly, vegetarians are to blame for WW2 and the Holocaust because Hitler went through a vegetarian phase at one point.
A.k.a. the Association Fallacy.
