HATE RUSSELL BRAND ?
This, in my opinion, is important. And this jounalist says it better than I could. link

What do you think?
If it was so irrelevant, then the author of that article wouldn't be writing about it.
Brand never directly said 9/11 was a demolition job, but he might as well have done. His Trews site promoted all the usual long debunked conspiracy theories about 9/11, and he wrote some misinformation in his book about it too.
The author of this article writes regarding that part of Brand's book...
"But the real test of political stupidity is the indulgence, if not outright acceptance, of crackpot 9/11 conspiracy theories. And in Revolution, Brand slithers around trutherism, writing that the “World Trade Center collapsed in a way that some people say looked like a controlled demolition” and scratches his chin over “the mysterious, ignored ‘third tower, building 7,’ the signs of ‘controlled demolition" link
It wouldn't have taken much for Brand to look that stuff up and learn a thing or two, but anything anti-establishment will do, regardless of whether it's true or not.
