It is not known even today who Ramzi Yousef actually is. There are many questions about his true identity (Laurie Mylroie has documented a strong case that he's an Iraqui intelligence agent).

A fellow was arrested in Canada this week with four Yemini passports all carrying his photo and different names.

For only a few hundred or thousand dollars, false passports can be purchased in virtually any Third World country (not to mention that countries such as Nigeria run huge forgery and false documentation industries).

It is my very strong sense that NONE of the WTC attackers has been accruately identified. ALL OF THE ATTACKERS had assumed false identities. Conversely, a huge evidence trail pointing directly back to Osama bin Laden was left in their wake.

Am I the only person who finds this a bit odd?

Fact is, I suspect this was an Iraqui operation with an intentional aftereffect of implicating bin Laden. After all, bin Laden wants the entire Middle East to become Taliban Central, and what good does that do for Saddam?

If this thesis is correct, Saddam has successfully:

Obtained revenge against the USA.
Diverted significant attention from himself as the plotter.
Put bin Laden (who may even have helped in this operation) on the run and neutralized his future ability to implement a Taliban-like Middle East.

If you're right, Saddam was too successful. After Afghanistan, Iraq is next.

Just how much more interesting could you be?

I heard once about a CIA operative who could control a major operation with 8 levels going on at once. He was so good that the KGB took the extraordinary step of killing him in the United States at his home - although the operation must have taken considerable time since it wasn't widely reported and not intially recognized as a hit.

Anyway, this current operation is beginning to look like Tom Clancy or Ian Fleming wrote the screenplay.
