The Islamists had the means, motive and opportunity to perpetrate the attacks on New York and Washington long before September 11, 2001.

No they didn't. The hijackers started preparing for the attacks the moment they came into the United States and attacked as soon as they were ready. They didn't waste any time underground. The 9-11 hijackers were not a sleeper cell.

Not entirely true, several of the hijackers lived in FL and near Washington for a period before the attacks. Atta was in Hamburg before the attacks, but they were all in American society at one point or another in the time leading up to 9/11.

And they couldn't have come any sooner because al Qaeda couldn't afford the airfare just yet, I suppose...
