Written by

Psychiatrists are to blame for the 9/11 attacks, according to two leading officials of Scientology front group “Citizens Commission on Human Rights” (sic) , or CCHR. In a just-released video compiled from two interviews on a Florida Scientologist’s local cable-access TV show, these officials, CCHR-Florida president David Figueroa and former CCHR-International president Dennis H. Clarke assert that Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri, normally considered to be Osama bin Laden’s next-in-command, is really bin Laden’s psychiatrist, and is directly responsible for bin Laden’s transformation into an international terrorist.

Specialists cannot say exactly from where phobias come from, although researchers say the main cause is the interaction of heredity and external events. Some hypersensitive people are bearers of unique chemical reactions in the brain and as a result they have a strong reaction on stress. Those people can be very sensitive to caffeine which activates some chemical processes in the brain. Neuro-photography gave researchers the possibility to study some parts of the brain and specific nervous pathways which are associated with phobias.

LETTERS: Psychiatry/Psychology Legacy

Leon Eisenberg was a pioneering psychiatrist, [trained in both adult and child psychiatry,] and not a psychologist as your article erroneously implies. I am sure that Professor Kleinman–also a psychiatrist–did not tell your author that Dr. Eisenberg would leave a legacy in “psychology,” a very different discipline from the one to which Dr. Eisenberg made so many contributions.
