A coming episode of the acclaimed FX drama “Rescue
Me” will tackle what may sound like a far-fetched plot
line: that the attacks of Sept. 11 were an “inside job.”
The actor who espouses the theories on camera, it turns out,
also subscribes to them in real life.
Claims that Al Qaeda terrorists were not solely
responsible for the attacks have a lively following on the Internet,
including on YouTube, but the second episode of “Rescue
Me’s” fifth season, starting in April, may represent
the first fictional presentation of 9/11 conspiracy theories
by a mainstream media company (FX is operated by the News Corporation).
“They’re not discussed a lot in the press,”
Daniel Sunjata, the actor who plays Franco Rivera on “Rescue
Me,” told reporters at a television press tour last month.
He predicted that the episode would be “socio-politically
provocative.”
In the episode, Mr. Sunjata’s character delivers a two-minute
monologue for a French journalist describing a “neoconservative
government effort” to control the world’s oil, drastically
increase military spending and “change the definition
of pre-emptive attack.” To put it into action, he continues,
“what you need is a new Pearl Harbor. That’s what
they said they needed.”
Mr. Sunjata surprised some of the TV reporters when he said
that he “absolutely, 100 percent” supports the assertion
that “9/11 was an inside job.”
