U.S. warned in 1995 of plot to hijack planes, attack buildingsSeptember 18, 2001 Posted: 1754 GMT<\/span><\/p>'); } else if (!(tst.indexOf("europe.linus.turner.com") == -1)) { document.write(' September 18, 2001 Posted: 1754 GMT September 19, 2001 Posted: 1:54 AM HKT (1754 GMT) September 19, 2001 Posted: 1:54 AM HKT (1754 GMT) September 18, 2001 Posted: 1:54 PM EDT (1754 GMT) By Maria Ressa MANILA, Philippines (CNN) -- The FBI was warned six years ago of a terrorist plot to hijack commercial planes and slam them into the Pentagon, the CIA headquarters and other buildings, Philippine investigators told CNN. Philippine authorities learned of the plot after a small fire in a Manila apartment, which turned out to be the hideout of Ramzi Yousef, who was later convicted for his role in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. Yousef escaped at the time, but agents caught his right-hand man, Abdul Hakim Murad, who told them a chilling tale.
"Murad narrated to us about a plan by the Ramzi cell in the continental U.S. to hijack a commercial plane and ram it into the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, and also the Pentagon," said Rodolfo Mendoza, a Philippine intelligence investigator. Philippine investigators also found evidence targeting commercial towers in San Francisco, Chicago and New York City. They said they passed that information on to the FBI in 1995, but it's not clear what was done with it. One week ago, two hijacked commercial jets slammed into the World Trade Center, collapsing the towers. Another jet hit the Pentagon and a fourth crashed in rural Pennsylvania. Authorities believe that fourth jet may have been headed for the Capitol or the White House. Thousands were killed in the attacks. On Monday, FBI Director Robert Mueller insisted the agency had "no warning signs" of last week's attacks. Yousef and Murad both have ties to Osama bin Laden, the man President Bush has labeled the "prime suspect" in Tuesday's attacks. Authorities also found on a computer in the Manila apartment details of a separate plot to bomb 11 U.S. airliners on overseas flights. Yousef once listed his occupation as "international terrorist" on an ID card, and he has long been considered a disciple of bin Laden. Murad was a pilot who admitted he had been trained in Afghanistan as well as the United States. Bin Laden, a Saudi native, lives in Afghanistan. "(Murad) was principally recruited by Yousef's group and bin Laden's group to undertake a suicide mission," said Avelino Razon, superintendent for the Philippine National Police. Yousef was eventually caught in Pakistan and brought to New York for trial. He was sentenced to life in prison. Murad is also serving a life sentence. |

Hope we don't have to wait 12 years for some documents~
Here's to a better New Year,'ay?
Take Care....
Never Forget, Pearl Harbor Commission, Here goes nothing with hopes it will be effective.
Blame the wrong people.
Please read "Day of Deceit" and you will see that the blame for Pearl Harbor lies with FDR, not Kimmel and Short

See the article (written in 1995): THE WORLD TRADE CENTER BOMB:
Who is Ramzi Yousef? And Why It Matters.
http://www.fas.org/irp/world/iraq/956-tni.htm
Excerpts:
ACCORDING TO THE presiding judge in last year's trial, the bombing of New York's World Trade Center on February 26, 1993 was meant to topple the city's tallest tower onto its twin, amid a cloud of cyanide gas. Had the attack gone as planned, tens of thousands of Americans would have died. Instead, as we know, one tower did not fall on the other, and, rather than vaporizing, the cyanide gas burnt up in the heat of the explosion. "Only" six people died.
But the more fundamental problem is that the Justice Department in Washington seems not to have been interested in pursuing the question of state sponsorship. In fact, the New York FBI office suspected an Iraqi connection early on, but the Washington brass seemingly wanted to tell America that they had already cracked the case and caught most of the perpetrators.
...Salameh himself is naive and manipulable. When one considers that he was arrested in the process of returning to collect the deposit on the van he had rented to carry the Trade Center bomb, it is not so surprising that on June 10, soon after being recruited into Nosair's plot, Salameh made the first of forty-six calls to Iraq, the vast majority to his terrorist uncle in Baghdad.
... It would be reassuring to know that, somewhere in the policy-apparatus of the State Department, someone is looking seriously at the possibility of future terrorist acts and at the requirements of effective deterrence.
In sharp contrast to these "official" inquiries, investigative reporting by Robert Stinnett and others has revealed that the U.S. succeeded in breaking Japanese military codes well before December 7, 1941; U.S. officials knew a Japanese strike force was at sea in early December, and several U.S. radio direction finding stations pinpointed Japanese radio transmissions from the carrier force as it approached Hawaii. Beyond that, Stinnett uncovered a memo (from the naval intelligence officer that controlled communications intelligence messages flowing to FDR) that outlined a U.S. "strategy" of inviting a Japanese attack, as a way of securing America's entry into WWII. The memo, prepared by Navy Lt Cmdr Authur McCollum, was written more than a year before Pearl Harbor.
I mention these facts because they've never been a part of any official Pearl Harbor inquiry. If you want a "whitewash" of 9-11, support some sort of Congressional hearings or a blueribbon panel. I have little faith in them getting to the bottom of who's to blame...
My greatest wish would be to see all the crimminals from the Clinton administration behind bars, but right now all I can do is wish.
The Pearl Harbor investigation held over 55 years ago blamed the success of the invasion on the US General and Admiral commanding the defenese of Hawaii. They were both fired in the aftermath. ZERO blame was placed on Roosevelt and those in his Administration.
I can't believe anyone would applaud what is certainly going to happen in Daschle's and Hastert's congress.
The Clintons will be totally cleared. The Military, CIA, FBI, the Airlines will be blamed. Then congress will create a new Government Agency and give it dictatorial powers over all citizens to prevent 911 from ever happening again.
