Ramzi Yousef was an al-Quaeda trained operative. There is also significant evidence that he was at least supported by Iraqi intelligence.

"THE WORLD TRADE CENTER BOMB: Who is Ramzi Yousef? And Why It Matters", Laurie Mylroie, The National Interest, 1995

He's still alive in prison in Colorado, last I heard. I wonder if anyone's asked him about it lately.

An even better example is Abdul Rahman Yasin...from my files:

Ramzi Yousef (1993 WTC) and Terry Nichols crossed paths (OKC) in the Phillipines. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (9/11) was Yousef's uncle. It is interesting to note that Yousef entered the United States on an Iraqi passport and had been known among the New York fundamentalists as "Rashid, the Iraqi". Another name that could be thrown into the mix is Abdul Rahman Yasin, a U.S. citizen who moved to Iraq in the 1960's and returned to the U.S. in 1992. After the 1993 WTC bombing, Yasin fled to Iraq and was given monthly salary and housing by Saddam Hussein's regime.
