| Ali Mohamed's Network in the USA |
| 2006-10-06 |
| From IntelWire, an article by J. M. Berger Ali A. Mohamed .... knew al Qaeda was sponsoring flight training for terrorists. He knew of at least one specific terrorist operation centered on a suicide airplane attack. And he knew at least three terrorist pilots personally. He was linked to at least one of the specific schools visited by the 9/11 hijackers. He knew the internal procedures of the security company that maintained two checkpoints used by hijackers at Boston's Logan Airport. ..... Whether or not Mohamed knew the particulars of the 9/11 plot, he knew a lot. Businesses and institutions exploited by Mohamed and his close associates were re-used by virtually all of the 9/11 hijackers as they prepared for the attack. Ali Mohamed joined Egyptian Islamic Jihad some time around 1984; he reported to Ayman Al-Zawahiri. His very first terrorist assignment was design strategies to hijack planes from the Cairo airport. Over the course of the next several years, Mohamed refined his techniques and pass them on to others. By 1992, he was formally training al Qaeda terrorists in Afghanistan and Pakistan in hijacking techniques, including where to sit and how to smuggle small weapons onto planes -- including utility knives like those used in the September 11 plot. Mohamed trained terrorists on behalf of al Qaeda in locations from Afghanistan to New Jersey, from London to Somalia. Ramzi Yousef -- who with his uncle Khalid Shaikh Mohammed came up with the first draft of the 9/11 plan -- was a student at al Qaeda's Afghanistan camps during the years Mohamed was teaching hijacking tactics there. |

| #2 One thing to note here...Egypyt has fomented the core ideology to this Muzzie uprising. Money comes from Saoodis and Iranians. From Saddam also before he was taken down. Much training and mischief from Pakland. And from Syria and Libya. I don't trust Moooamar any farthaer than he can be tossed. Turkey is not to be trusted. To say we don't know where the targets are is a farce. And, behind the curtain, is our favorite friend Putie, supplying all the real know how. Now the second major, MAJOR issue is that a lot of Muzzie scum is working in very sensitive areas in our country. Many do have security clearances. I think this is outrageous. This demonstrates just how it is being used against us on a daily basis. |

| #1 In 1995, Mohamed obtained employment with the Burns International Security Co., a private company that provided security services to businesses and government agencies. (Timothy McVeigh once worked for the company's armored car division.) Mohamed was assigned as a security guard at a Northrop Grumman facility that developed sensitive components used in nuclear weapons. Mohamed sought a security clearance to work in the facility's classified areas, but his application was denied. ..... When the FBI found the car left behind the five 9/11 hijackers who departed from Dulles Airport near Washington, they discovered a map of the D.C. area with Abdi's name and phone number written with a yellow highlighter. Burns' Globe subsidiary provided security at both Reagan and Logan airports. Investigators discovered Abdi had removed five Burns security guard jackets from his workplace before September 11. He attempted to give them to the Salvation Army three days after the attack. .... One very specific piece of intelligence provided by Ali Mohamed did not make it onto the President's brief. Siddig Ibrahim Siddig Ali, a Sudanese national living in the United States, had attempted to mount a suicide airplane attack as early as 1992. Under this early plan, a Sudanese Air Force pilot would steal a military plane, use to bomb the home of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarek, then crash the plane into the American Embassy. Siddig Ali was a member of a Brooklyn-centered terrorist cell led by blind Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman. The cell's most dangerous members had been trained by Ali Mohamed in New Jersey in 1989 -- and Siddig had been one of his students. Mohamed told the FBI about the plot around the same time he was negotiating his plea agreement in 2000, according to Cloonan. .... (During Rahman's 1993 trial, defense attorneys attempted to ask Salem if he had met Mohamed in Egypt, but the line of questioning was cut off as irrelevant.) .... the sheer volume of the linkages and their nature overwhelmingly suggest that Ali Mohamed built a substantial network of prospects, contacts, services and tactics for use by al Qaeda operatives in the United States. And Mohamed has -- without a doubt -- been succeeded by others who now maintain that network. The bottom line remains. The network wasn't dismantled prior to 9/11, and it's not clear that it has been dismantled even now. Never has there been a better argument for reinstating cruel and unusual punishment. Torture this scummy piece of shit to death as slowly as possible. I have now and forever lost all sense of mercy. |
