NYTimes article on the popular view in the Muslim world that 9/11 could not have been masterminded by Arabs (read: we’re just not that smart!).

I’d say the article is pretty accurate in capturing the popular sentiment. I know I hear these comments if the topic comes up in my family; they are just unwilling to accept that Muslims could be solely responsible. All sorts of theories come up when Bin Laden is discussed, and almost nobody believes that he is still alive, let alone that the US is still looking for him.
