Yeah, that was ill-timed and inappropriate. The crappy thing about Brand is he's actually quite intelligent and often has good points. But he always ruins it by going too far with his theories and giving that typical over the top delivery, along with purposely trying to upset people/societies over national tragedies.
But his discussion over "terrorism" and the "response" from certain countries being heavily influenced by "business" as much as safety is fair. Along with his comments that America (and Canada to a certain extent) take away more and more freedoms and become more police state and intrusive domestically with each passing terrorist scare.
