Paper Says It Has Unseen Video by Atta

Sunday October 1, 2006 2:16 AM

LONDON (AP) - A previously unseen video made by Mohamed Atta, ringleader of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, has been obtained by Britain's The Sunday Times, the newspaper reported Saturday.

In editions available late Saturday, the paper said it had been handed the so-called martyrdom video, but did not reveal the source of the tape.

It reported that Atta was filmed reading a document marked in Arabic as a will as he sat beside fellow hijacker Ziad Jarrah - who seized control of United Airlines flight 93, which crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pa.

The newspaper said that a timecode stamp on the videotape indicated it had been recorded on January 18, 2000 and the recording was made at an al-Qaida training camp in Afghanistan.

There was no soundtrack, the newspaper said. It quoted an unnamed U.S. source as saying that attempts to lip read the tape to transcribe the content had been unsuccessful.

It reported that Atta was filmed reading a document marked in Arabic as a will as he sat beside fellow hijacker Ziad Jarrah - who seized control of United Airlines flight 93, which crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pa.

The newspaper said that a timecode stamp on the videotape indicated it had been recorded on January 18, 2000 and the recording was made at an al-Qaida training camp in Afghanistan.

There was no soundtrack, the newspaper said. It quoted an unnamed U.S. source as saying that attempts to lip read the tape to transcribe the content had been unsuccessful.

Our intelligence services have just been handed a gold mine; since the version of the tape held by the newspaper has no audio track, and since attempts to "lip read" what Atta was saying failed, all we need to do is mount a little disinformation campaign by genning up a faux audio track to go with the video, then leak the "complete" tape to a media source that will dutifully play it for the world to hear.

[English translation of soundtrack follows] -- "My name is Mohammed Atta; praise be to Allah and the Prophet for giving me this opportinuty to express my gratitudes to enjoy the hands of another man on unmentionable parts. And the taste of his precious bodily fluids sends the chills upon my backbones that I have not experienced since the last time f*cked my Uncle's goat, Praise be to Allah! I thank our Fearless Leader, Osama, for introducing me to the ways of brotherly companionship during the harsh cold nights in the training camps, so far away from the comforts of my homeland. I have the recollections of many nights Osama would stay up with us in the tents and show us how to "sword fight" with our manhoods until dawn!

Now, when I see American men, I get hard like a camel ready to mate an entire herd of shameless desert-cows! I like especially much pictures of their men wearing tight leather outfits in magazines like "Anal Invasion!" I also yearn to visit the centers of culture in their country: San Fransisco, Key West, and Provincetown, inchallah! For such opportunity I am pleased to sacrifices all for one night of carnal bliss with greatest of all Americans: Tom Cruise; Praise be upon the Prophet! I AM THOBBING OF THE LOVE JUICES AT THE THOUGHT OF HIS HAIRY LOINS! Please, make my dreams come true!" ALLAH AKBAR! UUUUUUUUUHHHHH! UHHHH! OOOOOOHHHHHHH UUUUHHHHHHHHHHHH! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Al Qaeda's poll ratings in the Middle East will plummet like a sour fig shot out of a camel's ass. Maybe they can get Dan "Fake, but accurate" Rather to come out of retirement to breathlessly present the newly discovered tape on the six o'clock news..... yeah... that's the ticket!

OPINION: Interesting...the delivery of the tape and the timing could be even more interesting than the message itself.

I've been out staining porches this afternoon/evening...so will look around and see what others think.

"The newspaper said that a timecode stamp on the videotape indicated it had been recorded on January 18, 2000 and the recording was made at an al-Qaida training camp in Afghanistan."

Here's the thing, Atta's roommate in Florida crashed his small aircraft into a small twin-engined airplane on September 11, 2000. Two Thousand. Not 2001. Oh, and the year before, a man flew an aircraft into the White House lawn late on the evening of 9/11/1999.

Al Qaeda tried to hit us on 1/1/2000 at LAX, but a single alert fed stopped them, by sheer luck.

Then Al Qaeda hit us in December of 2000 in Yemen, bombing the USS Cole.

Atta then hit us on 9/11/2001. And here's a tidbit that hasn't made the news: "Atta" is a birth name that means: twin.

Who and where is his sibling?

That must be wrong. In January 2000 Clinton was President, not Bush. It has to be wrong.

Destroy it! Why glorify evil soulless people?

If we had a truly patriotic media, they would take this new tape and edit it into graphic video of the WTC jumpers, video of Palestinians dancing in the streets, and video of Daniel Pearl's death, as propaganda to drive Americans to rage and demand an even greater and more brutal war against terror.

I'm sorry to say but I don't think that would move people ... not the left at least.

In NJ we have a tight race with a Demoncrat Menendez and a decent Republican for a change. Would you believe that Menedez who has oodles of legal problems is VERY popular despite the ugly fact that he is a lying crook and being proven legally ... they like Menendez because he wants to pull out of Iran NOW. It's as though 911 never happened. They want the fight on OUR SOIL instead of Iraq.

Southack said in part, "Atta then hit us on 9/11/2001. And here's a tidbit that hasn't made the news: "Atta" is a birth name that means: twin.

Who and where is his sibling?"

===

Ok, I've never read that before, so I dropped everything to research it.

"Atta" means self, oneself, innersoul, self's soul, innerbeing, one's state of being, and may be a certain term of endearment or specialness for a father, and may be a type of flour. That's it.

If you have a url pointing to "atta" means "twin" could you please post it?

THANKS.

Thanks Southhack.

I'll stand by my research, but I find your research interesting as well.

I appreciate the feedback.

Destroy it!

No way!!!

The wackos who think Atta and the rest of the 9/11 high jackers are resting somewhere in the Bahamas via a CIA extended vacation need to see this video to at least be presented with evidence that they are delusional
