They found plans for the attacks in government buildings after the fall of Kabul.

Much more convincing are the plans they found on the folks who committed the first WTC bombing 3 years ago. And those folks do not have ties to bin Laden. Furthermore have you seen these plans? Do they involve suicide airline pilots?

How do you know they weren't drafted soon after we started bombing?

Bin Laden, the Saudi-born businessman believed to be holed up at a secret location in Afghanistan, tops the FBI's Most Wanted fugitive list and was implicated in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, the 1998 attacks on two U.S. embassies in Africa and other acts of terror. In 1997, bin Laden declared that the Islamic fundamentalists he leads would wage a "jihad," or holy war, against the U.S. and Saudia Arabia. http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:1ST0hRy5sww:www.terrorismfiles.org/individuals/usama_bin_laden.html+bin+ladin+connection+1993+trade+center+attack&hl=en

Q. Why do many suspect bin Laden masterminded the New York and Washington terrorist acts?

A. Bin Laden's name surfaced in connection with acts of terror around the world, including the attacks in Saudia Arabia in November 1995 and Dhahran the following June that left 30 people dead, including 24 Americans. He is also implicated in the assassination attempt on Egyptian president Mubarak in Ethiopia in 1995; the World Trade Center bombing in 1993 that killed three and injured hundreds; and the Somali attack on American forces that left hundreds wounded.
