It came as no surprise that Khalid Shaikh Mohammed would be forced to co-

operate with the Americans as these evildoers were holding his children hostage. Khalid
Shaikh Mohammed corroborated Zubaydah¶s information regarding our plan to destroy
several U.S. gas stations by simultaneously detonating explosives in the stations¶
underground storage tanks. The operative Khalid Shaikh Mohammed named, (or whose
identity was found on his computer) however, was an operative who once tried to jump
off a bridge in Columbus, Ohio, named Iyman Faris.





Iyman Faris was born in Kashmir on June 4, 1969, entered the

United States in May 1994 and became a United States citizen in
December 1999. He was employed as an independent truck driver. In
late 2000 he traveled with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, a long-time
friend, from Pakistan to Afghanistan. Faris had known Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed since the Afghani Jihad, and maintained a close
relationship with him. After arriving in Afghanistan with Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed, Faris was introduced to Usama bin Laden at an al-Qaeda training camp.
During this meeting in late 2000, one of bin Laden¶s men asked Faris about ³ultralight´
airplanes. Al-Qaeda was looking to procure an escape airplane that could be placed
aboard a cargo plane loaded with fuel and explosives. This would allow v
 to remain
alive after they completed their mission so that they could continue to fulfill their
obligation to make Jihad. Faris responded that he too was interested in ultralights, and
he was asked to obtain information concerning them. Faris had previously taken a gyro-
copter simulator flight in the United States. Two months later, Faris performed a
computer search at an Internet café in Karachi, Pakistan, and obtained information
concerning ultralights. Faris provided a hard copy of this information to Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed.1

After the September 11th 2001 Raids, FBI agents in Ohio interviewed Faris and
his former wife, Geneva Bowling because he was a young Pakistani who had a
hazardous-material license. The FBI failed to examine the records of his previous travel
held by the State Department or look the visa stamps on his American passport. Nor did
they follow up on his subsequent travel that included a trip to Karachi in late December
2001. Instead, the FBI chose to roundup 700 other men of Middle Eastern descent,
solely on the basis of visa violations and their ethnic backgrounds, and detain them
indefinitely, allow the Correction Officer¶s where they were incarcerated to become
judge, jury and executioner while Faris roamed free! This was not a so-called ³terrorist´
investigation ± this was collective punishment.

 In Karachi Khalid Shaikh Mohammed asked Faris to visit a travel agency on his
behalf and obtain extensions on several airline tickets to Yemen. To accomplish this
task, Faris dressed in disguise as a member of the non-violent Islamic revivalist
movement Tablighi Jamaat. John Walker Lindh's path to Islam led to Tabligh Jamaat
missionaries in 1999. In early 2002, Faris visited Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in Karachi,
Pakistan. Khalid Shaikh Mohammed introduced Faris to Abu Zubaydah. A few weeks
later, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed asked Faris to go with his son to deliver a bag
containing money and cell phones to Zubaydah. At another meeting, Zubaydah asked
Faris what he could do for al-Qaeda. Faris and Zubaydah discussed Faris¶s work as a
truck driver in the United States. Faris described his trucking routes and deliveries for
airport cargo planes. Zubaydah advised that he was interested in cargo planes because
they would hold ³more weight and more fuel.´

Zubaydah then informed Faris that al-Qaeda was planning two simultaneous
operations in New York City and Washington, D.C. Zubaydah spoke with Faris about
destroying the Brooklyn Bridge in New York City by severing suspension cables on the
bridge. Zubaydah tasked Faris to procure the necessary equipment for the operation
and described the equipment as ³gas cutters´ but instructed Faris to refer to them in
code as ³gas stations´ in any subsequent communications sent to Zubaydah. Zubaydah
also explained that al-Qaeda was planning to derail trains. Zubaydah assigned Faris to
obtain the necessary tools for the train-derailment plot as well. In messages to
Zubaydah, those tools were to be referred to as ³mechanics shops.´

Faris indicated that he had email and was familiar with the Internet. Zubaydah
instructed him never to access email immediately after logging on but only after opening
other Internet sites first.2 Upon returning to the United States from Pakistan in April
2002, Faris researched blowtorches and the Brooklyn Bridge on the Internet. After his
Internet research, Faris approached an acquaintance with a technical background, and
asked him about obtaining blowtorches.

Between April 2002 and March 2003, Faris sent several coded messages
through his relative Majid Khan of Baltimore, Maryland, to Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in
Pakistan, indicating that Faris was still trying to obtain ³gas stations´ and ³mechanics
shops´ (i.e., he had been unsuccessful in his ongoing attempts to locate the equipment).
In March 2003, Faris inquired about Zubaydah¶s arrest through a message to another
here in the United States.

In late 2002, Faris traveled to New York City. After examining the Brooklyn
Bridge, he concluded that the plot to destroy the bridge by severing the cables was very
unlikely to succeed because of the bridge¶s security and structure. In early 2003, after
scouting the bridge, Faris sent a message to Khalid Shaikh Mohammed that stated, ³the
weather is too hot.´ This message meant that the bridge plot was unlikely to succeed.

 Faris was supposed to single-handedly cut the support wires and destroy the
Brooklyn Bridge but he refused to carry out his mission. Traffic never ceases on that
structure. Can you imagine a motorist observing an Arabic looking fellow in the wee
hours of the morning pointing a blowtorch at one of the hundreds of cables suspending
the Brooklyn Bridge? This would be no way for Faris to become a big wheel in al-
Qaeda. Faris was secretly indicted in March 2003, pleaded guilty to helping us, and
began making numerous cell phone calls on behalf of the FBI. In October 2003 U.S.
District Court Judge Leonie M. Brinkema sentenced Faris to 20 years in prison. Before
sentencing Faris, Judge Brinkema denied Faris¶ request that he be allowed to withdraw
his guilty plea as he had made up a tale to confuse the FBI and secure a book deal.









Faris gave up the name of Majid Khan as a player in this

operation. Majid Khan, however, had already been captured in
Pakistan r
 Khalid Shaikh Mohammed rolled over on him. Majid
Khan would in turn give up Uzair Paracha, 23, who was arrested in
March 2003 in New York by the FBI and held as a material witness.
Uzair Paracha, a Pakistani who was involved in real estate and
whose father Saifullah Paracha owns an import clothing business is
accused of helping Brothers gain entry into the United States and of
being part of an effort to obtain chemical weapons, his attorney, al-Qaeda house
attorney Anthony Ricco, said.

The FBI complaint against Uzair Paracha accused him of trying to facilitate Majid
Khan¶s re-entry into the United States:

Approximately two weeks before Uzair Paracha

left Pakistan for the United States, [February 2003]
Uzair Paracha met [Majid Khan] whom he learned
wanted Uzair Paracha to perform tasks for him in the
United States. Uzair Paracha met [Majid Khan] at the
Karachi office of the business by which Uzair Paracha
is employed. [Majid Khan] was with Ammar al-Baluchi.
Uzair Paracha was advised that [Majid Khan] and
Ammar al-Baluchi wanted to invest approximately $200,000 in the
business for which Uzair Paracha worked in Karachi. Uzair Paracha was
advised not to ask any questions about the money because [Majid Khan]
and Ammar al-Baluchi were supporters of Usama bin Laden. Uzair
Paracha believed the funds to be al-Qaeda money, and [Majid Khan] and
Ammar al-Baluchi wanted to keep the funds liquid and to be able to
retrieve them on short notice. Uzair Paracha believed that if he did not
perform the tasks that [Majid Khan] was requesting him to undertake in the
 United States, then [Majid Khan] and Ammar al-Baluchi might not invest
the money in the business.3

Uzair Paracha was asked to make it look like Majid Khan was still in America by
using his credit card, closing a post office box. He was also asked to obtain a travel
document for Khan from INS so that Khan could travel back to the U.S. Uzair was
sentenced to 30 years in prison.

The real fish the FBI was out to fry was Saifullah Paracha a noted businessman
kidnapped from a Bangkok-bound Thai Airways flight on July 5, 2003 and detained in
Bagram Prison outside Kabul on suspicion of his ties to Usama bin Laden. Paracha
explained,

I reached Bangkok International Airport on July 6, 2003 and at the airport I

was illegally, immorally arrested back hand and leg cuffed, black big mask
on my head up to neck, was thrown on the floor of station wagon facing
down. I am heart patient, diabetic, high-blood pressure, skin disorder, gout
± it could have been fatal. There was no human consideration at all. From
airport I was taken to unknown place for a few days and kept eyes
covered, ears cover, hand cuffed, leg cuffed. After a few days I was
transported by plane to Afghanistan, under extremely severe bad
conditions. I was kept in isolation from July 2003 to September 20, 2004
and since September 20, 2004 I am in isolation cell in Guantánamo Bay
Island.4

Paracha¶s wife Farhat filed a petition demanding her husband be given his rights
afforded to him by the Pakistani Constitution. Farhat Paracha suspected that her
husband¶s Jewish-American business partner, Charles Anteby, was behind his
disappearance and had lured him to Thailand.5 Saifullah Paracha was developing a
satellite TV station to produce research based Islamist programs to contain the
misconception of Europe about Islam. He said: ³We will tell them the reality what Islam
is because the Islamic programs produced even by Arab countries lack research and
development. In Europe majority of people were showing interest in Islam and the
quality and research-based programmes would induce them to accept Islam.´6

Brother Saifullah Paracha was convicted of thought crime - contemplating using

his clothing export business to ship chemical weapons to the United States. This is how
he answered the accusations during his appearance before the American Military
Tribunal,

 I have never been supportive of the Taliban or al-Qaeda or its partners. I
have never been involved in an al-Qaeda plan to smuggle explosives into
the United States. No company I owned dealt with chemicals. Marason
(ph) Business is a publicly traded company, and I own 96% of the shares.
They manufacture bags, sugar, cement, and
   ; that industry is in
Bahrain city that I established more than 10 years ago. The governor of
Pakistan offered a good incentive to put the business there about one
million dollars came from the European Union and the U.S. to establish it
there to stop the poppy industry there. The government put the money
somewhere else, but I invested a million dollars in that myself. It was in a
remote area, and was not profitable. It been closed; it is a failed business.
I wrote the American Embassy that this could provide employment there to
reduce the poppy business; it can never be eliminated, but it could be
controlled. I have been trying to do this and I know a lot of government
officials. I believe in the Qu¶ran -- that killing one innocent person, is equal
to killing all humanity. I believe on that, and practice that. I have already
given the FBI details of my businesses in Pakistan, and they have not
found anything. I never held money for safekeeping for any al-Qaeda
operative. I never gave any research for any company for investment
possibilities at the request of an al-Qaeda operative. I have never
associated with any high-level al-Qaeda operatives. I never recommended
that nuclear weapons should be used against US troops to al-Qaeda, or
where the nuclear weapons would be available; I don't know, sir, where
these are available. Is a nuclear weapon something I could buy off the
shelf? Can you buy it from Tony Blair? Is that something to say to
anybody? I have never assisted an al-Qaeda member or family to find a
place to rent; however, I did assist some people who said they were
Pakistanis. I showed one Pakistani the area I lived. And I showed another
Pakistani how to find a place from the classifieds in the newspaper. I
never offered al-Qaeda media facilities or translation; I do have a news
agency I own. The work is to provide news to newspapers and magazines,
and it is called Universal News Private Limited; I gave this information to
my interrogators. Al-Qaeda never invested money in the company owned
by myself. I have never discussed this with any al-Qaeda facilitator about
getting chemicals and explosives into a coalition partner's national
boundaries«I did meet with Usama bin Laden in 1999 and 2000, two
times but I never met two high-level al-Qaeda officials that were wanted
men, sir. I knew they were handpicking the media area, and that is why I
met with him. When Hali Shir Abbar (Ittihad7 commander Shir Alam a
Afghani parliamentary candidate and as of mid-2005 a senior commander
in the defense ministry), was arrested, that was the first time they had
anything to do with Usama bin Laden; I knew they were handpicking the

Ittihad obtained assistance from Saudi Arabia throughout the war against the Soviet occupation, and Arab volunteers supported by
Saudi sources fought with Sayyaf¶s forces and trained in Ittihad camps. Ittihad leaders hold numerous military posts nationally, and

of the Supreme Court, Fazul Hadi Shinwar.
 media area, and that is why I met with him. When I met Usama, he
delivered the Qu¶ran, and said he was a prophet. He said very nice things,
very impressive. I asked him to speak about the terrorism program for an
English program. We intended to make an unclassified program for my
television station, and I claim that if people watched my station, that they
will know the difference between Christianity and Islam. I discussed
making a program on the Qu'ran to be showed on various channels. I
produce programs, and we have a studio in Pakistan. We have the most
modern equipment in Pakistan. I lived in New York, and I had my program
there for the Pakistani community. I went to Pakistan in 1986. I lived in
New York from 1971 -1986; I studied in New York at the Institute of
Technology.

I have offered my services to interrogators. I can help to control terrorism

and I need no reward for that. By the law of the Lord Almighty, I have
written many papers on Afghanistan and terrorism and given them to the
interrogators and they were pleased to receive them. They discussed with
me for hours and days about-how to control terrorism. I am just giving you
a brief background. This could be handled more effectively; we could stop
terrorism, and terrorism would die itself. That's all, sir.

Q. Do you not consider Usama bin Laden to be al-Qaeda?

. I never saw any definition of al-Qaeda. The first time I heard this was
from President Bush who said al-Qaeda. I went to Afghanistan not to meet
Usama, but people took me to help Afghan people with education. I was
the one who convinced the Taliban government to have a school; I said
we would put up the money and give you credit for that. Someone else
scheduled to meet Usama took me along with him. I don't have any
contact; I was made to meet him, and that's it.

Q. What were the circumstances of the second meeting [with Usama bin
Laden]?

. I was a member of one organization of Tanzeem-i-Islami. The chief of

this organization8 was officially scheduled to meet [Usama bin Laden] by
the ambassador of Pakistan and the ambassador of Afghanistan. We were
about 18-20 people in that delegation. We were with them, but I never
talked to him personally.

Q. If I could just pursue one line I was going to ask [earlier). Is $500,000 a
lot for a TV show?

8
. Dr. Israr Ahmad, founder of Tanzeem-i-Islami, proposed to General Busharaff in an open letter to begin a programme of survival
with: 1) fulfilling the prerequisites of the Just Social System of Islam through eradication of all forms of Riba, feudalism and absentee
landlordism; 2) Islamising the constitution through tying Article 227 of the present constitution with Objectives Resolution's Article 2B
and appointing qualified religious scholars as judges of the Federal Shariat Court.

. No, sir. The bank was willing to give me a credit line of $3 million, and I
gave the name of the bank to the interrogators. It was a prime bank in
Karachi, Pakistan, but I was primarily dealing with Jabbar, and he has an
office in New Jersey.

Q. Why was your son detained?

. Yes, sir. When I was in Pakistan, a man known as Ammar al-Baluchi
met me in the area of Karachi I live. He introduced us both, my son and I,
to a man that used to live in Baltimore named Majid Khan. We were sitting
and eating at a table, and he mentioned he had an immigration problem,
and he wanted to keep his bank account active. My son was working on
the website for the apartments in the U.S., and he asked my son to help,
and I said of course he can help while he was there [in the U.S.]. Those
documents were recovered by my son, and they say he is a terrorist, I
don't know.

Q. Majid Khan said he had an immigration problem and he wanted to keep

his bank account active in the U.S.?

. Yes, sir. He wanted to keep his bank account active because he
couldn't get back to the U.S. because of an immigration problem. There's
a procedure, and once your visa number is approved, it goes to
Islamabad. There is a procedure.

Q. What do you know about Ammar al-Baluchi and Majid Khan? How
would you know them, and why would you provide this business or
financial support?

. I met them through Ammar al-Baluchi; Ammar al-Baluchi was his

associate, but he introduced himself as being from another province of
Pakistan. I have his identification also; they all dress and act like
Pakistanis, so he introduced himself as a Pakistani.

Q. Do you have a fall definition of al-Qaeda? What it is?

.I don't sir.

Q. Would you be surprised to hear Usama bin Laden founded al-Qaeda,

and al-Qaeda includes people from all over the world? People from
America, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Philippines, and people from wherever?

.Sir, how could anybody know who al-Qaeda is?

Tribunal President Response: Good question. That's a very good

question.

Absent from this meeting is perhaps the most adroit politician among us, a
crypto-Islamist who was commander of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, the Al
Aqsa Martyrs Brigade and al-Fatah. He was the Father of the Palestinian nation, and a
distinguished member of the Learned Elders of Islam, Mohammed Abder Rauf Arafat al-
Kudwa al-Husseini, better known to you as Yassir Arafat. Chairman Arafat was born in
Al-Quds of Palestinian9 parents. Chairman Arafat joined the Muslim Brotherhood while
studying in exile in Egypt, where he became their president and he was forced to leave
Egypt when authorities there made this discovery. He was a practicing Muslim,
performed the Haj to Mecca, wore a pendant engraved with a verse from the Qu¶ran,
and was a leader of the Islamist Movement, despite public statements he has made to
confuse and befuddle the enemy. The Palestinian Authority adopted an official
constitution based on Shari'ah: Article (7) of the official Palestinian State Constitution
states that ³The principles of Islamic Shari'ah are a major source for legislation.´10 In a
private speech this is what Brother Arafat said:

We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem«All

the rich Jews who will get compensation will travel to America«We of the
Palestinian Liberation Organization will now concentrate all our efforts on
splitting Israel psychologically into two camps...You understand that we
plan to eliminate the State of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian
State«I have no use for Jews; they are and remain Jews. We now need
all the help we can get from you in our battle for a united Palestine under
total Arab-Muslim domination!11

This speech reflected Al-Husseini¶s lineage. Arafat the Elder descended from the
Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and he has stated: ³Fighters in this
revolution that began thirty years ago are the sons and grandsons of Abdelqader al-
Husseini, (the Grand Mufti¶s nephew martyred in 1948) Izz Ad-Din Al-Qassam,12 Ali
Hassan Salameh13 and other leaders of the Jihad«´

In postwar testimony a senior aide to Adolf Eichmann testified that the Grand
Mufti visited Auschwitz in disguise and reproached the Germans for not being more
determined in exterminating the Jews.14 While Al-Husseini the Elder was living in Berlin
he offered his hosts plans for a concentration camp for Jews near Nablus in Palestine

holocaust was exaggerated, or did not happen at all. In this way Muslims rob the Jews
of their excuse for occupying Palestine, which is that they could not survive as a
minority people in Europe.





 

   



Long before the Islamists organized for Jihad - as early as 1973 - the P.L.O, or
Black September or al-Fatah, whatever name you wish to call us, struck at Israeli
targets in the United States. Our major sponsor r 
 was Iraq. On January 12,
1973 using an Iraqi passport and driver¶s license a hero of Palestine, Khaled
Mohammed el-Jessem, using the name Khalid Dahham Al-Jawari (also spelled Al-
Jawary) entered the U.S. through Canada. El-Jassem¶s mission was to hijack an aircraft
then fly it by himself. Before this we would board airliners and force the pilot to fly
wherever we ordered him. Between January and March 1973, el-Jessem applied for
flight instruction at the Teterboro Flight School in New Jersey. The FBI interviewed him
about his activities and at Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem¶s trial FBI Agent Finnegan,
who was in charge of his case, was asked:

Q. Could you tell us what the circumstances of the FBI¶s interview with Mr.
Al-Jawari were in 1973?

AUSA Rose: Objection, irrelevance, before the crime was committed.

THE COURT: I'll permit it.

Mr. Rose: I would ask that Agent Finnegan be permitted to summarize the
details without revealing any of the sources as to why any of the persons
in addition to Mr. Al-Jawari were interviewed.

Q. I'm asking what contact did the FBI have with Al-Jawari in 1973. Again I
understand this is prior to the alleged bombing.

. An agent interviewed him in the course of another investigation and it

was a negative interview, no crime committed. He was interviewed in the
course of business. No official report was made of the interview, I don't
believe. There is notice of the interview.

Q. There is some indication in FBI files the FBI in fact interviewed Al-
Jawari in 1973?

. Yes, there are. There's also an interview about Al-Jawari. I would say
the purpose of the interview is classified.

15
. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/678861/posts
 Q. I'm not asking you for the purpose of the interview but could you tell us
-- I'll ask the question, if it's objectionable I'll hear an objection. With regard
to information about Al-Jawari obtained by the FBI in 1973 regarding
where he was from, family members, contacts, any information regarding
where he came from in that interview by the FBI in 1973?

. 
 

 
  
  

 
r      He had, if I recall correctly, had gone to school in Egypt
and received an engineering degree, here to study to be a pilot and he
was in the preliminary stages of studying to be a pilot. He was deciding
and he was basically here on a travel visa, permit to visit briefly, shortly,
exploring the possibilities of attending pilot school.

Q. More specifically regarding, say, addresses or family members in

whatever country the FBI was told, if they were told where he was from at
that time?

. I believe he said he was from an Iraqi family.16

As a result of this interview Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem was forced to

withdraw from flight school and his tuition was refunded. It was decided Khaled
Mohammed el-Jessem would instead attack two Israeli banks in Manhattan17, one of
them located in the Jewish-controlled diamond district, by parking a car bomb in front of
them. The El-Al Airlines terminal warehouse at Kennedy Airport was targeted in the
same fashion. El-Jassem rented several cars from Hertz and other rental agencies so
that he would be an established customer when he rented the cars to be used in the
attack. The bombs were set to detonate upon the arrival of Israeli Premier Golda Meir
on Sunday March 4, 1973 and consisted of the plastic explosive Semtex, believed to
have been imported from Iraq, three five-gallon containers of gasoline, and several
propane cylinders. Two of the bombs had an electrolytic timer that utilized the discharge
of a capacitor into a printed circuit to trip a relay, while the other employed the metal
hands of a Donald Duck wind-up clock to close the circuit. All three failed to explode
because of faulty wiring. When one of the devices was set off by the bomb squad it
produced a ball of fire five twenty-five feet in diameter. Anyone with a hundred yards of
the blast would have been killed. America would have been awakened from its
complacent slumber.

On Monday March 5, 1973 the police towed away one of the vehicles for a
parking violation and an agent from the Olin rent-a-car agency was called in to inspect it
on Tuesday. When the agent opened the trunk he found the explosive device and timer.
The FBI began to canvas all Israeli installations in the city looking for cars with rental
plates parked in front of them. This was how the FBI discovered the bomb, in a car
rented by Avis, at the El Al Airlines terminal warehouse. On Wednesday, the third car
bomb, rented from Hertz, was discovered in the impound lot at Pier 56 on the Hudson

River. The FBI found literature printed by Black September in one of the automobiles,
wrapped in a Hebrew language newspaper so that if would not draw attention to the
vehicle.

The FBI claimed it had an informant who was in touch with members of the Black
September cell. The informant reported that five or six such car bombs had been
planted throughout the city. In reality the Bureau was convinced that Khaled
Mohammed el-Jessem had worked alone and no one else except for him was ever
charged. The PLO Security Office agreed with the FBI and reported that the Brother had
no connection to Black September: ³Mr. Khaled el-Jessem has been appointed as a
representative of the Arab Public Relation Department in charge of the political
relationships of the PLO with other Arab countries. During that period, he used to be in
direct contact and working side to side with its chairman Mr. Yassir Arafat,

Brother el-Jessem left the United States but before he did he hid his false
passport behind an air conditioner at the Skyway Motel near Kennedy Airport. Others
carried on his mission: On July 1, 1973 Israeli Air Attaché Yosef Alon was shot. The
same Brothers from Black September who aided el-Jessem in the New York City car
bomb operation carried out this act. Almost 30 years have passed since his
assassination and no one has ever been charged. Allu Akbar!

Brother Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem remained active in the movement. On

April 26, 1979, two men identifying themselves as ³Yousif Salim Sejaan´ and ³George
Mechail´ attempted to cross into the Federal Republic of Germany from Austria at the
Passau-Achleiten border crossing. ³Sejaan´ carried a French passport indicating his
place of birth as Dbaye, Lebanon. ³Mechail´ carried a Cypriot passport indicating his
place of birth as Nicosia, Cyprus. Both carried international driver's licenses. The border
police determined that ³Mechail¶s´ passport had been tampered with, and conducted a
search of the vehicle they were driving. They found approximately 88 pounds of high
explosives, eight electronic timing-delay devices and eight detonators in the suitcases in
the trunk. ³Mechail´ then revealed that his true identity was Mohammed Hamade, that
he was born in Beirut, Lebanon, and that he was an officer in the Palestine Liberation
Organization. ³Sejaan´ maintained his identity.

After the two men were arrested, a portable radio belonging to ³Sejaan´ was
taken apart. Taped to the inside of the radio were four electronic timing devices, nine
passports and two International Driver's Licenses. Located in ³Sejaan¶s´ briefcase was a
roll of tape identical to the tape used to affix the detonators and the documents to the
inside of the radio. The radio itself could be used to monitor transmissions from ships,
aircraft or police, and located in ³Sejaan's´ briefcase was a ³Minispion,´ a device that
could be used to transmit to the radio. ³Sejaan´ also had a substantial amount of
money, including $12,500 in United States currency. Finally, three of ³Sejaan's´
fingerprints were found on the inside of the paper wrapped around one of the blocks of

explosive material, and one fingerprint was found on one of the passports that was
inside the radio.

As a result of the arrests of Hamade and ³Sejaan´ the German Police placed an
alert for other Palestinian's crossing into the Federal Republic of Germany. That same
day, two other men, Mohammed-Zahedi and Rida Rachim Musawi, were stopped as
they attempted to cross the Dutch border at Elten, North Rhine, Westphalia, both using
Iranian passports and international driver's licenses. The photos on the two passports
were identical to the photos on two of the passports found inside ³Sejaan¶s´ radio.
Moreover, documents recovered from both automobiles, an analysis of telephone calls
made from the hotels where the men stayed before entering Germany and statements
made by the four concerning their European travels confirmed that they were acting in
concert.

Of the four men arrested, only Hamade implicated himself in a so-called terrorist
mission. In substance, he stated that he was ordered to travel from Hamburg to Israel
where his group was going to take hostages to be exchanged for imprisoned
Palestinians. ³Sejaan´ claimed that he met Hamade for the first time on April 25, 1979,
at the Linz, Austria, railway station, that he had offered Hamade a ride to Passau, and
that the luggage containing the explosives belonged to Hamade. When confronted with
the fact that the passports, driver's licenses and electronic timing devices were found in
his radio, ³Sejaan´ declined to make any further statements.

Moreover, between March 24, 1979 and March 26, 1979, seven more
Palestinians were arrested in Berlin in possession of approximately 40 pounds of high
explosives and 12 detonators. Two of those arrested confessed that they were going to
use the explosives for bombings in the Federal Republic of Germany. The wrapping of
the explosives seized in Berlin was the same as that used to wrap the explosives seized
from ³Sejaan´ and Hamade, that is, they both bore the label of a pastry shop in Beirut,
Lebanon, which was used as a front for al-Fatah. In addition, the photograph on one of
the Mauritania passports found in ³Sejaan¶s´ radio was of one of the persons arrested in
Berlin.

On July 24, 1987 a Lebanese Brother, Ali Mohamad Hariri, hijacked an Air Africa
plane in Geneva and demanded the release of the Hamade brothers held captive in the
German Federal Republic. The operation ended with the arrest of the Brother, killing
one person and injuring 31.

In October 1990, Agent Finnegan received information from the intelligence

community that ³Al-Jawari´ might be el-Jessem, a Palestine Liberation Organization
official living in Nicosia, Cyprus. The FBI requested that el-Jessem¶s fingerprints be
discreetly obtained and compared with the latent fingerprints of ³Al-Jawari.´ Shortly after
that request was made Agent Finnegan was notified that el-Jassem had fled Cyprus
before his fingerprints could be obtained. Subsequent investigation revealed that el-
Jessem had moved to Baghdad Iraq, after leaving Cyprus.
 On January 17, 1991, Agent Finnegan learned that el-Jessem had landed on
January 16, 1991, in Rome, Italy, en route to Tunis, where he had been detained. He
would be released on January 18, 1991 at 11:00 A.M. unless proof was presented that
el-Jessem was ³Al-Jawari.´ On January 18, 1991, ³Al-Jawari's´ fingerprints and a
photograph that had been retouched to account for the years that had passed since it
was first taken arrived in Rome at 8:30 A.M. A positive match between el-Jessem's
fingerprints and the latent prints of "Al-Jawari´ was made, and el-Jessem was held
pending extradition to the United States.

Khaled Mohammed EI-Jassem: ³Twenty four hours earlier before I was arrested
in Rome my friend was assassinated in Tunisia. I was enroute to attend his funeral.´ EI-
Jassem was referring to the January 14, 1991 murder of Salah Khalaf, aka Abu Iyad,
the co-founder of al-Fatah, and the founder of Black September. Abu Iyad was the
organizer of the 1972 Olympic Event in Munich. Members of the Abu Nidal Group and
Iraqi intelligence agents killed him after he opposed Arafat¶s support of Saddam at the
start of the Gulf War.

Khaled Mohammed El-Jessem explained why he was arrested on the same day
America invaded Iraq: ³There came August 1990, where Iraq took back its southern
government Norat, which is known as Kuwait, and the Arabs were divided by those who
supported and those who did not support. And the position that the PLO took was
neutral, but leaning towards Iraq, with the hope that Iraq will withdraw from Kuwait
peacefully.

When I was working in the Department, I was the responsible of the

department of Arab relations at the PLO. Definitely I had to go and visit
Baghdad during that time, and as a result, I became a target for the
American secret agencies, which at that time became -- whereas at that
time, it concentrated its efforts on the Iraqi situation, particularly after
August 1990.

He contested extradition, but was ultimately ordered extradited. He arrived in the

United States on April 12, 1992. William Kunstler, a classmate of the presiding Judge
Jack Weinstein, represented Khaled Mohammed El-Jessem. Kunstler introduced
himself to EI-Jassem during the first meeting as ³Mohammed Mosa Kunstler´ and added
that he was an Orthodox Muslim! Indeed, this surprise made el-Jessem closer to and
trust him despite some signals he received from Agent Finnegan during meetings with
him that Kunstler was Jewish. (EI-Jassem said that Agent Finnegan advised him not to
tell his lawyer, Mr. Kunstler, or the judge about meetings he was having with the
Government).

El-Jassem said that Agent Finnegan told him:

Kunstler and your Judge Weinstein are Jewish and Kunstler does not want
to close this case, but we want to close it. Agent Finnegan also told me
that he is Irish, Catholic, and that Mr. Rose too, µWe are not Jewish¶
 Finnegan said! The prosecutor, Mr. Rose and Agent Finnegan advised me
not to go to trial particularly that the judge is Jewish, a strong supporter of
Israel, a member of several Zionist organizations, and possibly bias
against me for the fact that I am Arabic, Palestinian, and Muslim. Mr. Rose
and Agent Finnegan told me that this judge hates Palestinians, and in
1991 he ordered the extradition of a Palestinian named µAtta¶ to Israel (this
fact was in total contradiction to what Mr. Kunstler told me while I was in
small cage waiting for my first hearing, in presence of interpreter Mr. Khair
that this judge (Hon. Weinstein) refused to extradite the Palestinian µAtta¶
to Israel).

I asserted and advised Mr. Kunstler, repeatedly by letters that I am not Al-
Jawari, and the Rule of 5-year statute of limitation should be applied to
dismiss the indictments. Kunstler asked for one hundred thousand dollars
plus ten for an interpreter and expert, he sent a Fax-letters to my wife and
to the PLO¶s representative in N.Y., for payment. After a few days Mr.
Yassir Arafat, Chairman of the PLO sent ten thousand dollars to Mr.
Kunstler, through the Arab Bank in Cyprus. But, Mr. Arafat could not send
another money despite his promise to do so, because the PLO being in
difficulties financially situation. Therefore, Mr. Kunstler refused to attend
three court hearings, one was for bail motion in June 1992.

After the PLO failed to pay additional money to Mr. Kunstler, el-Jessem noticed
that Mr. Kunstler began to refuse to accept his collect calls, and avoided talking to his
wife despite the fact she was calling from overseas, and she was paying for the call.
The excuses used were that Mr. Kunstler was in Cuba, or out of New York etc., but the
V     paper indicated that Kunstler had hearings in New York during the
same day! El-Jassem felt that he must pay or Mr. Kunstler will not move the case one-
inch forward. El-Jassem protested:

My lawyer Kunstler, since November 16 he didn¶t visit me (as you know

they don¶t let me call him here). I sent him more than ten letters but he
didn¶t answer!! My wife called him from Cyprus, Nicosia (she paid for call)
but he refused to talk, he let his secretary talk!!! As you know I asked the
court to reappoint him. I don¶t want to have negative relation with him. I
respect him. I trust him. I don¶t want to lose him. He is good and great
man. I am good man too. Indeed, I don¶t know how I can convince him to
visit me, I need to discuss everything with him. Is this how lawyers in the
U.S. works? Or he don¶t like to defense me? I am not insect.

The result of this was that Kunstler suggested el-Jessem be examined by a

psychiatrist.

During this psychiatric evaluation el-Jessem admitted he was in contact with

Hamas. Later he would deny this:
 This is totally untrue. The interview with Dr. Tish was recorded on
videotape. Therefore, I strongly challenge this and request to review the
tape because I did not say that at all. There is no relation between me and
Hamas at all. And in 1973, there was no Hamas. It was established only in
the beginning of the nineties. Therefore, I do not find any connection or
even a reason to mention this in relation to this case which is 20 years old.
Hamas is only 4 years old. Hamas surfaced strongly as a reaction to
certain developments in 1991 - 1992. I have been in prison since January
16, 1991. At any rate, Hamas has good relations with Washington. It was
established by support from Saudi Arabia - America's ally, and Kuwait -
also America's ally and one of its unannounced states. It (Hamas) was
established to influence and challenge the Palestine Liberation
Organization. It was basically to weaken and undermine the PLO,
especially, after August 1991. As Hamas reached a limit of causing
disturbances on the street in Israel, and not the Israeli Government, all the
allies began to withdraw their support and turned away. Hamas was then
ascribed to Iran. But this is untrue because Iran is a fanatic Shi¶ite sect of
Islam. But Hamas is 100% Sunni Muslim. However, due to ignorance and
avoidance of media to relate good or bad wills caused people to confuse
the matters.

On March 10, 1993 the fingerprints of ³Sejaan´ were finally transmitted from the
Federal Republic of Germany to Special Agent Clarence Phillips of the FBI Laboratory,
Latent Fingerprint Section. On March 12, 1993, Agent Phillips confirmed that ³Sejaan´
and Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem were the same person.19













El-Jassem told Kunstler:

The United States knows that the PLO and al-Fatah and Black September
Organization are one, and acted under Arafat¶s leadership since 1971-
1972«The United States knew that the defendant was an official
diplomatic enjoyed immunity of the PLO in Cyprus, holding diplomatic
passport, before his arrest in 1991«The United States prosecuted
defendant as personal action not as organization, PLO action, or any
others, since PLO, al-Fatah and Black September are one, and since no
protest against PLO by U.S«There is a reasonable possibility that
Arafat¶s role in this attempt case was a principal (if agent Finnegan¶s
testimony of January 3, 1994 was correct; and Government¶s statement of
March 17, 1993 was correct)«There is a reasonable possibility that the
United States accepted this attempt case, since it allowed Yassir Arafat to
visit New York on April 1974, where the FBI documents were completed
before April 1974, and showed that the PLO was responsible, and the
statute of limitations was not run yet.

19
. USDC EDNY 73CR500 Letter to Judge Weinstein March 17, 1993 from Mary Joe White
 In 1992, the court appointed lawyer representing me before you took over
the case, Mr. Paul Davison (of The N.Y. Legal Aid Society), was told by
the prosecutor AUSA/Rose that Mr. Yassir Arafat, Chairman of the PLO,
personally ordered and financed the actions in the present case. No
soldier will go to a battle or to take care of a duty unless he receives
instructions from his own chief or his commander, and in this particular
case, let's continue to assume, then we can say to execute this kind of
operation must have been taken at a very high level. And the sum of
money, that is needed as to what we mentioned, it is a big sum, and a
soldier cannot possess it. And came the year 1973, and the decisions of
the political and financial decisions were in the hand of Arafat directly.
Nobody could at that time spend $50 without his direct approval or his
signature, and this is the case up till now.

The PLO corroborated el-Jessem¶s contention:

Based on our investigation conducted in the present case and reviewing

some Top-Secret PLO documents from 1973, along with statements
made, to us by several PLO officials, it is proven to us that Mr. Yassir
Arafat, who in 1973 was (and still is) the Chairman of the PLO Military
Department, did order/approve the plan, in the present case, and signed
the money order to cover the expenses of the actions, in the present case,
and he did so in his official capacity. Additionally, after September 1993
PLO officials told U.S. officials through the diplomatic and intelligence
channels that the facts in the present case are as told to Mr. Davison, and
that Ambassador el-Jessem was not involved in (and had no knowledge
about) these actions at all. They also urged the immediate release of this
innocent man.´

El-Jassem was found guilty and sentenced to three consecutive ten-year terms.
He commented:

The Court and Prosecutor, in Sentencing Order, have both declared the
PLO is a µcriminal organization¶ and since µArafat¶ the boss he should not
be treated different than µJohn Gotti,¶ (boss of criminal organization). It is
much better, if the Court were correct, to bring the µboss¶ who ordered the
action of the crime in the present case, who is Arafat and other leaders of
the PLO.

The PLO legal department filed this brief on el-Jessem¶s behalf:

The members of this society were the first supporters of the 1993 peace
agreement, because of their hope that the peace will stop their ongoing
ordeals. They understand, as do I, that the signing of the peace
agreement must be followed by the release of all prisoners, when their
imprisonment was related to that conflict, worldwide. When the PLO
leaders signed that agreement, they explicitly accepted full responsibility
for all acts done by their men and women in that conflict worldwide prior to
September 15, 1993. And so did the other signatories. There is precedent
for American atrocities against civilians on foreign soil in Vietnam by
Calley. The U.S. government was in fact accountable for Calley's actions,
and the PLO is in fact accountable for any action done by its men and
women worldwide.

In the United States prison at Lompoc California, the PLO has the man
most needed in its efforts at this period of time, Ambassador Khaled el-
Jessem. He is an official and a diplomat who enjoys the ambassadorial
level of diplomatic immunity with the PLO Diplomatic Corps. On April 16,
1993, five months before signing the peace agreement in Washington, the
U.S. District Court, Eastern District New York, sentenced him to 360
months imprisonment despite the 52 months recommended. That court
enhanced his sentence only because of his membership with the PLO.

The Palestinian Police and Bureau of Investigation Department, and the

Intelligence authority, have conducted a wide and intensive investigation
concerning the case and whether, or not, he was involved in that case.
They have assured me that there was no intent to blow up anything, but to
gain attention of the American media through hoax devices. Thus, the
element of attempt, intent, is lacking in that case. Also, they have assured
me that he was not involved in that case, and he is not the right
perpetrator.

The fact that Ambassador el-Jessem, from day one (of his arrest on
January 16, 1991, at Rome-Italy airport at the behest of FBI agent
Finnegan) has adamantly denied any involvement in that case is
significant. It is commonly held opinion here that the Mossad was using
the FBI to eliminate Palestinian diplomats through a policy of
disinformation prior to September 1993. This was one of the dirty tricks
during the war against the PLO. PLO leadership, in writing, accepted
responsibility for the acts for which Ambassador el-Jessem was convicted
and sentenced. Thus, the PLO is in fact accountable for the actions in that
case. Under Calley,  , he must not be punished even if he was
convicted because the PLO is in fact accountable for that case. The most
significant difference lies in the fact that in Calley, many lives were taken,
whereas in the PLO case, it was at most, an ill-considered publicity stunt.

First, although he was never a member of PLO Military Department, his

family and friends view him as a war hero, (everybody here does) so his
imprisonment has the effect of making him a martyr because it's common
knowledge here that the U.S.- FBI arrested him, and the District judge
 sentenced him to 360 months to die in U.S. prison, to convenience the
Mossad.

All officials here, including the Minister of Justice, have stated to us (our
Court) that the perpetrator(s) who committed the acts in the present case
did not include Ambassador el-Jessem who was neither a member of the
PLO Military Department nor had any knowledge about the actions (for
which he was convicted and sentenced). Simply, Ambassador el-Jessem
was (and still is) a member of the PLO Political Department.

It is our view that our esteemed member of the PLO Political Branch
should not be punished for the actions of any member(s) of the Military
Department, especially since he was in no way involved in or had
knowledge of them. As a matter of justice, he should not be punished for
acts committed by someone else. In h    
 , 447 U.S.
908 (1980) a defendant is entitled to prove his innocence by showing that
someone else committed the crime.

Under this amnesty, the U.S. Justice Department did not request
extradition from our Justice Ministry (or our Court) for Mr. Abbas, who is
(extremely) wanted to the U.S. government, despite Senator D'Amato's
request to do so. Mr. Abbas accepted responsibility and the guilt, and
offered his apology through the US-TV Network from Gaza. The U.S.
government turned a deaf ear to Senator D'Amato and a blind eye to Mr.
Abbas. The U.S. government's behavior is an expression of its current
policy of amnesty since September 1993, even though Mr. Abbas and Mr.
Arafat were both charged with capital crimes.´20

On October 18, 1993 and October 29, 1993 Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem wrote
this to Judge Weinstein:

Yesterday, the Israelian Prime Minster, Mr. Rabin, stated that his
government began release thousands of the PLO¶s prisoners. The U.S.
Congress, last week, decided to recognize the PLO and removed its name
from the µTerrorist¶s List.¶ This means one thing, that the war is µover¶ and
the peace time µcome true.¶ There are more than fifteen thousands PLO
prisoners in Israel and other countries. All have been arrested as a result
of the µPalestinian Refugees Problem.¶ The Israelian did began release all
the PLO's prisoners including a Palestinian Atta who was extradited to
Israel by Order of this court. I am sure that this court, feel with a happy
mood in regard to Atta's release, since, in all consciences, the court knew
that all these cases were a result of the Palestinian Refugees Problem«

This was the extraordinary circumstances that may give this court the
jurisdiction to proceed, even if my appeal is still pending in the Second

20
. Ltr. from Palestinian National Authority Ministry of Justice dated May 7, 1996 Quassi Abadallah, Supreme Judge.
 Circuit, because this court made upward departure in its sentencing, from
52-months to 360-months, on ground, that, the PLO is and was a ³criminal
organization.´ But, the new extraordinary circumstances proved that the
PLO is not and was not a µcriminal organization¶, because the U.S.
President, Congress, Department of State would not have made that
extraordinary Ceremony for Mr. Arafat.

Judge Weinstein refused to release Khaled Mohammed el-Jessem and a few

years later he appealed this conviction on the basis of newly discovered evidence:
briefs that were attempted to be filed on his behalf during post-trial proceedings by the
Palestinian General Directorate of Public Security and Police, the General Directorate of
Palestinian Intelligence, and the Palestinian Supreme Court; and a letter sent by a judge
of the Palestinian Supreme Court to the former Chief Judge of the Appellate Court.
Each of these documents purported to show that el-Jessem had not been responsible
for the bombs, and that others within the Palestinian Liberation organization had placed
them. One of them read: ³Explicitly, the man who was in charge mentioned Shahine¶s
name as the man who carried out these act in the present case in 1973. Both Shahine
and his superior are no longer alive today, but the witnesses testimony is available.´

In 1998 the appellate court ruled that the briefs and the letter could not be
deemed newly discovered evidence:

To be sure, these written materials were   in that they did not exist until
after he was convicted. Indeed, they were prepared in connection with his
post-conviction litigation. Each of the documents, however, purported to
reveal information about events from 20 years before. That is information
that el-Jessem - a PLO official - could have discovered with µdue
diligence.¶ Moreover, the documents themselves are hearsay and would
have been inadmissible« The requirement that newly discovered
evidence would µprobably lead to an acquittal«presupposes«that the
proffered new evidence, would be admissible at the new trial. Again, el-
Jessem fails to show how this information, even if he had devised a way to
introduce it at trial, would have counteracted the devastating effect of the
considerable and uncontroverted fingerprint evidence connecting him to
the crime. Judge Weinstein did not abuse his discretion in denying el-
Jessem¶s motion for a new trial. For these reasons, the judgment is
affirmed.21

Here was a startling admission that the PLO had carried out so-called terrorist
acts within the United States. The Americans have repeatedly stated that they will not
negotiate with ³terrorists´ yet the United States has always been willing to negotiate with
the PLO. Although many Americans are afraid to say it out loud, due to the power of the
Zionist lobby to destroy them, they know in their hearts that our cause is just.

. USDC EDNY 93 CIV 4392 Appellate Division
 When Arafat was asked about having agreed to Oslo he replied: ³Allah¶s
messenger Mohammad accepted the al-Khudaibiya peace treaty.´22 He, of course, was
referring to the KO
ibiya agreement made by Muhammad with the Arabian tribe of
Koreish. The pact, slated to last for ten years, was broken within two years, when the
Islamic forces - having used the peace pact to become stronger - conquered the
Koreish tribe. The Arabic word ‘ derives from this agreement. Another historic
reference Arafat made during that same speech was to ³Caliph Omar and Patriarch
Sofornas.´ This referred to the Christian bishop Sofornas of Jerusalem who, in the year
638, surrendered Jerusalem to Omar, the second successor to Mohammed. Omar
made it a condition in that treaty that no Jews would be allowed to live in Jerusalem! As
far as martyrdom bombing, Arafat said: ³I renew the call to completely halt any activities,
especially suicide attacks, which we have condemned and always condemned.´ Two
days later Chairman Arafat stated: ³With God¶s help, next time we will meet in
Jerusalem, because we are fighting to bring victory to our prophets, every baby, every
kid, every man, every woman and every old person and all the young people, we will all
sacrifice ourselves for our holy places and we will strengthen our hold of them and we
are willing to give 70 of our martyrs for every one of theirs in this campaign, because
this is our holy land.´23

The political has nothing in common with the moral. The ruler who is governed by
the moral is not a skilled politician, and is therefore unstable on his throne. He who
wishes to rule must have recourse both to cunning and to make-believe. The leader of
the Palestinian people, Yassir Arafat, exhibited these qualities in his dealing with the
Zionist entity and most especially, with Yitzhak Rabin, his partner in ³peace.´ Yitzhak
Rabin24 once the Peace Now Prime Minister of the Zionist entity, believed Arafat¶s
fabrication that peace was possible in exchange for land. His constituency, weary from
half a century of war failed to appreciate that Oslo was nothing more than a stalling
tactic, to use an invidious comparison, just as the Soviet Union was able to forestall war
and re-arm during the Hitler-Stalin pact. Had the Soviets not done this, they would have
been defeated by Germany. The Oslo accords played on the weakness of the Jews,
and ultimately would have brought them peace, the peace of the grave for in the Zionist
State amid the demand for ³a Palestinian State´ ever multiplying out of defeatism, we
find a new right -- to attack by the right of the strong, and to scatter to the winds all
existing forces of order and regulation, to reconstruct all institutions and to become the

approach taken by Yitzhak Rabin. Rabin, during his second stint as Prime Minister of Israel (from July 1992, until his assassination
on November 4, 1995) was relentless in his efforts to achieve a just, lasting peace with the Palestinian leader. He knew, as
LaRouche has recently insisted, that Israel would be destroyed, eventually, by the policy that Sharon represents. Harley Schlanger -

executioners of those who have left to us the rights of their power by laying them down
voluntarily in their defeatism.

May Allah bestow his blessings upon the late Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, for it
is written in the Qur`an: ³And when we made a covenant with the children of Israel: You
shall not serve any but Allah«´25 which was what Rabin did. Great national qualities,
like frankness and honesty, are vices in politics, for they bring down rulers from their
thrones more effectively and more certainly than the most powerful enemy. Such
qualities must be the attributes of the kingdoms of the 

, but they must in no wise
guide us.

Rabin did not come to his senses even after almost all Israeli Arabs supported
the actions and threats of Saddam Hussein, and openly expressed the hope that Iraq
would fulfill its threat to bombard Israel with missiles tipped with chemical warheads.
These were the Arabs he considered loyal to the illegitimate State of Israel.





Yigal Amir, temporarily set back our plans to destroy the Zionist entity using the
Arafat methodology by assassinating Rabin. Amir, who had attended a paramilitary
Talmudical school, was born in Herzliya in the heartland of the Zionist entity and was a
law student at Bar Ilan University in Tel Aviv - a center for religious fundamentalists -
when he murdered Rabin.

Israel Hess was the campus rabbi of Bar Ilan University. In the early 1980¶s Hess
had published a tractate entitled ³The Commandment to Commit Genocide in the
Torah.´ According to Hess, all those who declared war on µGod¶s people¶ are
µAmalecites¶ (it is said that many of the Learned Elders of Islam descended from this
tribe), and God declared the counter-Jihad in which the µAmalecites¶, right down to the
last woman and child, must be exterminated.

Three days before Amir eliminated Rabin, a group of rabbis organized a

ceremony in front of Rabin¶s apartment, a ceremony that is considered one of the worst
possible forms of stigmatization. They exorcised avenging angels, which were to kill
Rabin by ³whipping fire lashes against him.´ They chanted ³Yitzhak, son of Rosa, who is
known as Rabin, we are permitted to ask the Angel of Destruction to raise the sword
and kill this bad human being; for he hands the Land of Israel to our enemies, to the
sons of Ismail.´26 During his interrogation the police officials tried in vain to elicit
information from Amir concerning the rabbis who had issued the R
 (seal of approval,
religious edict, fatwa) for the Rabin assassination, without which, he admitted, he would
not have been ³kosher.´ The Judaist Amir was motivated by a belief in the Jewish
equivalent of Shari'ah, ‘
 religious law. Before the Zionist secular court, Amir
explained that in accordance with the ‘
 any Jew who ³leaves his people and his

Fundamentalism.´

land to the enemy, as Rabin did, must be killed«I did it for the Torah of Israel.´ During
the questioning Amir said that two unnamed rabbis had called Rabin a 
and a
 . A 
is a persecutor who puts Jews in moral danger. If there is no other
possibility such a persecutor must be killed in order to save other human lives; this is
not seen as a punishment but as redemption. A  , meanwhile, is a spy or an
informer. Like a 
, a   can be killed without a religious court ruling. Thus, the
assassination was like following an order taken from the laws of God, which no one
could have prevented, as Yigal Amir¶s brother Haggai explained. According to ‘
,
Amir¶s act was not a murder but rather an urgent necessity, something that needed to
be done in order to divert danger from the Jewish people.



  
 

The Shin Bet27 employed a Jew so sick that he did not

know which side he was on, the government¶s or the Judaists?
This agent provocateur was Avishai Raviv and he was asked by
his handlers to actively protest the peace process, in order to
discredit right-wing political groups who opposed the Oslo
Accords. Raviv had worked for Shin Bet since 1987. He was a
deep cover agent who was allowed to commit numerous crimes
not only against our people, but also against other Jews, in order
to bolster his credibility. In doing so he violated the laws of the Zionist entity numerous
times yet he went unpunished.

Avishai Raviv was born in 1967 in Holon, just south of Tel Aviv. He made up for
his stuttering, a nervous disorder, by playing practical jokes on his classmates, just as
he played a practical joke on the Shin Bet. Raviv¶s family was not religious and voted for
the secular Labor Party. At the age of 16, he attended a lecture by the Rabbi Meir
Kahane, became active in the Kahanist movement and embraced fundamentalist
Judaism. While on leave from service in the Israeli Defense Force¶s murderous Givati
Brigade, Avishai Raviv began attending demonstrations and other Judaist activities. It
was then Raviv was recruited as an informer for the Shin Bet. Avishai Raviv, however,
was no ordinary snitch. He was an agent provocateur. For five years he initiated,
organized, and led dozens of extremist Judaist activities under the aegis of a
government led group called V (the Jewish Fighting Organization). Eyal was
Kahanist in its philosophy: It ran training camps that encouraged children to throw
stones at Palestinians and it launched a well-publicized leafleting campaign against
mixed Jewish-Arab classes in public schools. Leaflets of this sort are illegal in the
Zionist entity because they¶re too outwardly racist, and those who are responsible for
creating them are often prosecuted. He and several Eyal teenagers were brought in for
police questioning. No charges were pressed. Avishai Raviv beat up and mishandled
Palestinians in a Nazi-like manner, particularly children and elderly people. He also
destroyed their possessions, for which he was arrested but immediately released

27
. Created shortly after Israel¶s birth, the Shin Bet is, in effect, the Israeli FBI and Secret Service combined; it is charged with the
tasks of gathering domestic intelligence, counterespionage, and protecting diplomats and VIPs. Control of the Shin Bet is in the
hands of the office of the prime minister.
following the intervention of the Shin Bet. Avishai Raviv even

 v      The Voice of Palestine
blamed attacks carried out by Hamas on Eyal.28

Soon Avishai Raviv built a small but loyal following, made up primarily of religious
teenagers. Most of Raviv¶s handlers were not religious. The first thing Raviv¶s Case
Officers in the Shin Bet demanded was that he marry a Judaist settler from the Hebron
area in order to enhance his bona fides. This marriage did not last long, and the couple
soon divorced. The Shin Bet caused this female settlers life to be destroyed, something
Islamists would never do to their own! Many other Jews suffered at the hands of Avishai
Raviv:

In August 1991 during a protest outside the Tel Aviv office of the Communist
party, when Tamar Gozansky, a Communist member of the Knesset left the building,
Raviv charged at her with a large metal flagpole. Gozansky¶s aide blocked the assault,
and a brawl ensued. Photos of a bloodied Raviv limping away from the rally enhanced
his stature among the Kahane thugs. Avishai Raviv was arrested, but it took nearly four
years for the case to go to court. He was let off with a mere nine months¶ probation and
a small fine. The Shin Bet orchestrated the decision by Israeli prosecutors to request
probation. A few days after the machine-gunning of 29 Palestinians by Baruch Goldstein
in March 1994 at Hebron¶s Cave of the Patriarchs, Avishai Raviv rented an apartment
directly above the one where Goldstein had lived in Kiryat Arba. While Kiryat Arba¶s
leaders were denouncing Goldstein, Raviv was boasting about his admiration for him.
The mayor of Kiryat Arba, Zvi Katzover, had his life threatened. Then one of Raviv¶s
splinter groups, DOV [Suppression of Traitors], vandalized a car belonging to him and
the next day, Eyal took credit for assaulting Katzover¶s son so seriously that the boy had
to be hospitalized. Raviv was not prosecuted. Avishai Raviv started to openly discuss
assassinating prominent Israelis.

The Jews are their own worst enemy. Ultimately they will destroy themselves.
The Learned Elders of Islam merely hasten this self-destructive wish. Yitzhak Rabin
was so foolish he allowed his own General Security Service (Shin Bet) to create and
sponsor Eyal and as a result Avishai Raviv met Yigal Amir at the Institute for Advanced
Torah Studies of Bar-Ilan University. It was there, in the spring of 1994, that Yigal Amir
was drawn into Avishai Raviv¶s netherworld. Raviv was blanketing the campus with
extremist posters. He clashed with campus security when guards took some of the more
militant notices down. This resulted in his expulsion and his becoming a Judaist hero.
Prior to the Rabin assassination Yigal openly expressed his desire to kill this ³traitor´ but
Avishai Raviv failed to even hint at Yigal Amir¶s declared intention to harm Rabin when
he reported to his handlers. Not only did he not say a word about Yigal Amir but he
encouraged him to kill the Jewish leader: Shortly after the Rabin assassination several
young women at a religious seminary said that they had recognized Yigal Amir and
Raviv from a Sabbath retreat the previous summer. The girls said that Raviv had
denounced several Rabin government officials as ³traitors´ and Raviv had attempted to
goad Yigal into killing Rabin, ridiculing his ³cowardice´ for not being willing to

28
. Michael Widlanski ³Don¶t Fight People who are Fighting Terror´ Jerusalem Post March 15, 1966 page 10
assassinate a ³traitor.´ The girls testified: ³Raviv was real macho. He kept saying to
Yigal Amir, µYou keep talking about killing Rabin. Why don¶t you do it? Are you
frightened? You say you want to do it. Show us that you¶re a man! Show us what you
are made of.¶´ Yigal Amir¶s convicted accomplices, his brother Haggai Amir and Dror
Adani, claimed Avishai Raviv knew of the plot and Avishai Raviv¶s girlfriend, Margalit
Har-Shefi was convicted for failing to report it.

After the Rabin killing the Shin Bet denied having granted Avishai Raviv
immunity from prosecution: ³We established new rules of operation...that he would
undergo psychological examinations. It was made quite clear to him that we wouldn¶t
continue along the same path, and that he would not receive immunity for crimes he
committed.´

Avishai Raviv was charged with ³failing to prevent a felony´ for the Rabin killing
and with ³support for a terror organization´ based on the swearing-in ceremony for his
right-wing Eyal organization. In October 2002 the Court ruled that Raviv¶s confession
made to his Shin Bet interrogators immediately after the assassination that he had
heard Yigal Amir voice his intention to kill Rabin was admissible. Two police witnesses
for the prosecution testified that Haggai Amir had confessed during his interrogation
seven years ago that Avishai Raviv knew of his brother¶s plot to assassinate the late
prime minister. Police officer Efraim Bracha, who was the head of the Tel Aviv police
team that interrogated Haggai Amir immediately after the assassination, told the court
that as early as three days after the assassination he knew that something was very
wrong regarding Raviv.

Police officer Efraim Bracha asked Haggai Amir if Avishai Raviv knew about their
intentions [to kill Rabin], and he answered in the affirmative, and this contradicted the
reports the police got from Shin Bet officials: ³I went to Avishai Raviv¶s handlers
codenamed Eran and Yoni, and asked, µLook here: Haggai Amir is implicating Avishai
Raviv. What is going on here?¶ It was then that they told me that Raviv was their
intelligence man. They asked me not to continue [the interrogation] on this point, and
that they would take care of it...They asked that no one be told.´ Court president Amnon
Cohen asked Police officer Efraim Bracha why he went to the Shin Bet in the middle of
his interrogation.

. Experience. To be honest, it stunk. It could not be that Haggai would

talk to police about Avishai Raviv and not tell the Shin Bet about it earlier.

Q. What did they [the Shin Bet] officials tell you?´

. You want to know what they told me? µWelcome to the world of liars,¶
which meant this was intelligence, that Avishai Raviv was one of theirs,
and not to elaborate.

Q. So they both told you to leave it be, that he was one of theirs?

. No, no they did not tell me to leave it because he was one of theirs, but
that they would interrogate Haggai Amir and take care of the issue. I sit
with them and let them know what is happening, and they tell me what to
do. They instruct me on what to do. The person who runs the interrogation
is them.

Q. This is why I am asking you why you didn¶t make a record of this.

. This was an internal matter...which I did not see as µexplosive¶ material.

A day after he was interrogated by Bracha, Avishai Raviv was remanded for
seven days by Tel Aviv Magistrate¶s Court, on suspicion of conspiring to murder Rabin
then released.

The prosecution contended Avishai Raviv confessed to knowing of Yigdal Amir¶s

plans during two interrogations shortly after the assassination, one with two Shin Bet
interrogators. First Avishai Raviv claimed that he had told his interrogators the truth
because he thought they were his friends and that he was not under investigation so his
testimony could not be used against him. After the court rejected this and admitted the
testimony, Avishai Raviv reversed himself and claimed he had lied during these same
interrogations. In its summation the prosecution argued Avishai Raviv lied to the judges
when he said he had lied to his interrogators when he told them he knew of Yigal Amir¶s
intention to assassinate Rabin. Welcome to the world of liars!

Yigal Amir had concluded that Avishai Raviv, even though he was an informant,
was on his side and attempted to save him from the ordeal of prison so testified in
defense of Avishai Raviv. Yigdal Amir said that Avishai Raviv did not know of his specific
plans to murder Rabin. ³He only heard me talk of the general need for Rabin to be killed, but he
knew nothing about my plans to do it,´ Amir said. Avishai Raviv¶s lawyers urged the court to
consider Yigdal Amir¶s testimony that he had suspected Avishai Raviv of being a Shin
Bet agent and had refrained from telling him of his plans.

A three-judge panel acquitted Avishai Raviv on March 31, 2003. It ruled that: ³To
convict Avishai Raviv of failing to prevent a crime in this case murder suspicions are not
enough; rather, there is a need to prove real knowledge of an intention to commit a
crime´ and that had Avishai Raviv known about the plot his ³weak and sycophantic
personality´ would forced him to inform the Shin Bet since it was ³his whole world´ and
would have made him a hero. The Court could not explain why Avishai Raviv failed to
inform his handlers about the generalized threats the emanated from Amir. Right-wing
Likudists instigated the prosecution of Avishai Raviv and the leftwing Labor Party judges
ruled that Raviv should go free. The justice of men is subject to political considerations,
wherein the justice of God is not.

 
. 
 In our day, the power, which will replace that of the rulers who are democratic, is
the power of oil and the money generated from it. The despotism of oil, which is entirely
in our hands, reaches out like a straw that the State, willy-nilly, must take hold of: If not -
- it sinks like a stone and goes to the bottom.

Our triumph has been rendered easier by the fact that in our relations with the
men, whom we wanted, we have always worked upon the most sensitive chords of the
human mind, upon the cash account, upon the cupidity, upon the insatiability for
material needs of man; and each one of these human weaknesses, taken alone, is
sufficient to paralyze self preservation, for it hands over the will of men to the disposition
of him who has bought their activities. The Bush Administration wants Arab money,
votes and oil, so it must give something in return. Objectively, how does U.S. military,
political and economic support of an otherwise unsustainable Jewish colony on the
Mediterranean advance the economic, security and ethical interests of the U.S. people?
As long as U.S. Middle East policy props up the Egyptian cleptocracy, the Gulf pimplets
and other formations in the region we will have a political vendetta to settle, aside from
our unrelenting religious one. Attacking this problem has next to nothing to do with the
destiny of Jerusalem or West Bank squatters. Only to the extent that the cheerleaders
for U.S. Middle East policy (AIPAC, ADL creeps, Likudists 5th columnists, etc.) seek to
politically obstruct the self-defense of the U.S. people will the discussion turn much
around Israel or the Palestinians.

As the Americans run out of oil we shall exert more influence over them. The
American environmentalists point to the 33% decline in domestic production of crude oil
over the last 25 years as a sign of impending scarcity. At present, the United States
imports about 10 million barrels of oil per day, representing 53% of its total
consumption; by 2020, daily U.S. imports will total nearly 17 million barrels, or 65% of
consumption. Shortly after each of the significant oil price spikes (1973-74, 1979-80 and
1990-91), the United States entered a recession. The effects of the 2006 gas price run-
up have yet to be seen.

It is possible for any sound, logical mind to hope with any success to guide
crowds by the aid of reasonable counsels and arguments, when the stomachs of the
masses are empty, the economy having failed because of massive inflation instigated
by rising oil prices? Men in masses, and the men of the masses, being guided solely by
greed, paltry beliefs, traditions and sentimental theorems, fall prey to party dissension,
and our natural allies, the Arabists, who have vocalized muted support for our activities
against the Jews, will ascend to positions of political power. The Arabist organizations,
underwritten by our immeasurable wealth generated from oil revenues are already in
place and will produce ³respectable´ candidates, with long histories of service in the
American government, to replace the Zionist Occupational Government. These ³non-
profit educational organization´ directors do not in any means support Jihad, for it is
their institutions that will be struck, yet they represent the interests of the Saudis, who
have always hated the Jews, reached arrangements with al-Qaeda and are the nation
from which men such as Usama bin Laden have sprung, a man who despite their covert
support has said, ³As for oil, it is a commodity that will be subject to the price of the
market according to supply and demand. We believe that the current prices are not
realistic due to the Saudi regime playing the role of a U.S. agent and the pressures
exercised by the U.S. on the Saudi regime to increase oil production and flooding the
market that caused a sharp decrease in oil prices.´ Call them any name you want,
American puppets, usurpers of the people¶s wealth, but they are still Sunni Wahabists.




c 

On May 16, 1994 Mohammed al-Khilewi, the First Secretary at the Saudi Mission
to the United Nations, defected and sought political asylum in the U.S. He brought with
him 14,000 internal government documents depicting, among other things, the Saudi
royal family's financial support for Hamas.29 Mohammed al-Khilewi met with two FBI
agents and an Assistant US Attorney. Clinton granted the Saudi traitor asylum but FBI
agents were ordered not to accept evidence of Saudi activity on our behalf, even on
U.S. soil. Al-Khilewi's New York lawyer, Michael Wildes: ³We said [to the FBI], µHere,
take the documents! Go get some bad guys with them! We'll even pay for the
photocopying!¶´ But the agents did not want this hot falafel ball.

Al-Khilewi had this to say about Usama bin Laden during a pretext phone call we
placed to this defector in 1998:

When Sheikh bin Laden and others established groups of Arab

mujahedeen (fighters) in Afghanistan in the early 1980s, they had a poor
reputation in the Arab street due to their being armed and trained by the
CIA, and their being funded by Saudi intelligence. Things changed after
the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan, when the mujahedeen turned
against corrupt Arab regimes, giving bin Laden a good reputation among
the Islamic opposition. Today, bin Laden has thousands of fighters and
tens of thousands of supporters all over the world. He is very strong
militarily and financially. He has two programs. The first is a secret, and I
can't comment on it because I myself don't know it. The second is his
public program, some parts of which I agree with and others I do not. On
this basis of his public speeches and releases, I can say I mainly disagree
with bin Laden's belief -- shared by some others in the Saudi opposition --
that all our problems stem from America. They conclude we must fight
everything that is American.

You ask why would the Jewish Defense Organization interest Saudi
intelligence? I don't fully understand why, but I do know the following:
Saudi intelligence informed headquarters of having installed surveillance
equipment µin their place.¶ In June 1994, when I did an interview on this
subject with Barbara Walters on ]
]  the Saudi ambassador to the
United States, Prince Bandar, appeared on the same program and denied
any such spying. However, a few days later, when I spoke to Bandar on

29
. Now it is widely believed that much of Hamas¶ current operating budget comes from Saudi Arabia since the European Union and
America have cut their funding to the Hamas controlled Palestinian Government.
 the phone, he admitted to such activities and claimed that the Jewish
Defense Organization was planning to bomb a Saudi Airline jet. This
confirmation from him is now undeniable because I have him on tape.30

In the post September 11th environment the FBI changed its mind about
accepting the stolen documents even if it offended the Saudis. We sent Abu Jihad to the
Jew Michael Wildes¶ office pretending to be a reporter. Wildes showed him two telexes
that had been translated by the FBI and now bore little official stickers on them. One of
them concerned the training of so-called terrorist organizations in Syria while the other
dealt with killing Americans on a commercial airliner with a biological agent that was to
be planted in the airliners ventilation system. Al-Khilewi remains in hiding.





Saudi Brothers were utilized in the September 11th Raids because the Americans
looked at the Saudis as their allies, thanks to Saudi complicity in the aggressions of the
Gulf War, and although Saudi presence at numerous flight-training schools aroused
suspicion, it was not enough to cross a critical threshold. Fifteen of the nineteen
September 11th martyrs were Saudi. CAPPS, the Federal Aviation Administration's
computer passenger screening system, flagged nine of the nineteen September 11th
Shaheeds and their baggage was screened for explosives.31 And though the Pentagon
has only recently identified the 598 fighters jailed at its military prison in Cuba, other
sources estimate that 100 of them are Saudi, the largest or one of the largest groups of
prisoners. The Saudis have spent more than $1 million to provide American lawyers for
those detained or questioned here since Holy Tuesday. John Pistole, assistant director
of the FBI's counterterrorism division said, ³To us, that is tantamount to buying off
witnesses.´32 The Congressional Joint Committee looking into our September 11th New
York, Virginia and Ohio Raids reported:

According to a U. S. Government official, it was clear from about 1996 that

the Saudi Government would not co-operate with the United States on
matters relating to Usama bin Laden. [Deleted - Dale Watson],
reemphasized the lack of Saudi co-operation and stated that there was
little prospect of future co-operation regarding bin Laden. [Deleted] told the
Joint Inquiry that he believed the U.S. Government¶s hope of eventually
obtaining Saudi co-operation was unrealistic because Saudi assistance to
the U.S. Government on this matter is contrary to Saudi national interests.

Crown Prince Abdullah even went as far as blaming al-Qaeda activities on the
Jews:

 Zionism is behind it. It has become clear now. It has become clear to us. I
don't say, I mean. It is not 100 percent, but 95 percent that the Zionist
hands are behind what happened.´33

Al-Qaeda has major issues with the Saudi Royal family, and the Saudi Royal
family most certainly has issues with us. But self-preservation is the first rule of nature
so many Saudi aristocrats have secretly made deals with us, but must conceal this and
pretend to repress the forces of Islamism in order to receive American military aid, a
situation not unlike that of Pakistan. No members of the Saudi aristocracy have been
killed or injured in our attacks, for though al-Qaeda knows the Saudis are murderers
under Islamic law we will take their  
.34 After the Saudis realized they could not
eliminate Usama bin Laden (they tried to do so between 1996 and 1997) in 1998 the
Saudis began covertly funneling money to our representatives, as the Saudi monarchy
knew that it was vulnerable. In 1980, the average income in Saudi Arabia was $20,000.
By the mid-1990¶s it was $7,000. Unemployment is 28% among 20 to 24-year-olds, and
at least 10% among 25 to 29-year-olds, making Saudi Arabia a fertile recruiting ground
for Islamism. Economic distress has already forced many poor Saudis into the open
arms of Islamic charities that we control.







 





Princess Haifa Al-Faisal is the husband of Saudi Ambassador Prince Bandar and
the daughter of the late King Faisal who was assassinated by Islamists in 1975. In
Saudi terms she is considered progressive as she sponsors Islamic schools for girls.35
She is the sister of the former Saudi intelligence chief Prince Turki al-Faisal. After the
East African Embassy Event Prince Turki al-Faisal visited Afghanistan. Usama bin
Laden commented,

The visits and the requests were met by great surprise, specially when
Prince Turki al-Faisal came to Afghanistan, in the aftermath of the
explosions in Nairobi and Dar-es-Salam. Even if there was a relationship
between myself and those who carried out the explosions, it is none of the
business of the Saudi regime to come and ask for handing over Osama
bin Laden, who was stripped of his (Saudi) identification card which is his
right by birth, and whose assets were frozen, and who was forced to sever
all relations with his kin. This was met be great surprise on the part of the
Taliban state (Afghanistan). They had expected that the American
government would be the one to come back to them after the failure of the
last visit by (U.S. envoy) Mr. Richardson, who was rebuffed by the
Taliban, may God give them the rewards they deserve. Price Turki al-

 Faisal also returned empty handed. It was as if he came as an envoy of
the American government.36
Prince Turki al-Faisal has been ordered to respond to a subpoena issued by an
American court wherein some of the relatives of the civilian casualties of the September
11th Raids claim as the head of Saudi intelligence, he had made a deal with the Taliban
during a meeting in 1998. Their law firm alleges that Prince al-Faisal dropped the
extradition attempt against Usama bin Laden and pledged Saudi aid to the Taliban in
exchange for an agreement that bin Laden would not target the Saudi government or
the Saudi Royal Family.37 Prince Turki denied these allegations, ³I knew him as a
volunteer in the war against the Soviets, that's when I knew him. I had no dealings with
him after that.´38
Others members of the Saudi Royal Family had death in store for Usama: In
1998 Prince Salman bin Abdul-Aziz, who had stripped Usama bin Laden of Saudi
citizenship in 1994 was alleged to have offered Siddiq Ahmed Turkistani an ethnic
Uighur who was born and raised in Saudi Arabia $267,000 to assassinate bin Laden39
In late 2001 Saddiq Ahmad Turkistani was freed from a Taliban prison in Kandahar,
Afghanistan, and told reporters and U.S. officials that he had been wrongly imprisoned
for allegedly plotting to kill Osama bin Laden. Intelligence officials and U.N.
representatives told Siddiq Ahmed Turkistani they would help him find refuge, possibly
in Pakistan. Instead, in January 2002, Siddiq Ahmed Turkistani was taken to a U.S.
military base in Afghanistan, then strapped into an airplane and sent to Gitmo. Siddiq
Ahmed Turkistani told his American lawyers that he was deported to Afghanistan from
Saudi Arabia sometime in 1997, after he was jailed for alleged possession of hashish, a
very serious offense in the Land of the Two Mosques carrying a long prison term.
Turkistani said he was given fake Afghan identification and put on a plane from Jeddah
to Kabul because the Saudi government did not recognize him as a citizen, not because
he was on a covert mission. He said that Afghan officials detained him for six days
before releasing him. He said he made his way to Khost, Afghanistan, and befriended
an Iraqi man. Before long, four Arab al-Qaeda members arrested he and his friend.
Siddiq Ahmed Turkistani said he was accused of being a Saudi spy, interrogated and
tortured. Fearing for his life, after 20 days of severe beatings and sleep deprivation,
Turkistani said he ultimately gave what he called a "lengthy story" about how the Saudis
had sent him there to kill bin Laden. He was turned over to the Taliban and held in
Kandahar for more than four years.40 Bin Laden asserted in a statement in December
1998 that Turkistani and two accomplices had been hired by Saudi Arabian officials to
kill him and failed. Bin Laden: Praise Be to God. An attempt on my life took place when
the Saudi regime sent a number of people, who, though were born in the land of the two
mosques (Saudi Arabia), were deprived of citizenship. The Saudi regime exploited this
weakness and offered them large sums of money in return for trying to assassinate me.

By the Grace of God, Praise and Glory be to him, the Taliban were able to arrest one of
them. His name is Saddik Ahwad. He confessed that Prince Salman bin-Abdel Aziz, the
brother of the current king of the land of the two mosques, has promised to give him
citizenship and a million rials if he was able, together with two other colleagues of his, to
assassinate Osama bin-laden. We were not hurt. For us God suffices and as I said
lifetime is pre-ordained.41

A false news story was floated that bin Laden was poisoned, suffered kidney
failure, but survived in a weakened state. Before and after photos of bin Laden from this
period revealed that he did not look any different than he always did. Our former ally
Vincent Cannistraro, who helped fund the Islamists war against the Afghani Communist
puppets, spread this disinformation to cause demoralization in the Islamic Movement.42

It wasn¶t until November 2002 that the Americans made public

their suspicions that al-Qaeda was on the Saudi¶s ³pad.´ A Congressional
intelligence oversight committee discovered that in 1998 Princess Haifa
made an initial payment of $15,000 then began donating $2,000 a month
to Omar Al-Bayoumi, ostensibly for medical care for his ailing Jordanian
wife. She donated a total of $130,000 to Omar Al-Bayoumi along with
$550,000 to the Ar-Ribat al-Islami Mosque.43 Omar Al-Bayoumi was a unemployed 30-
year-old Saudi whose father was sending him $3,000 a month for support while he was
in school. He regularly attended the Islamic Center of San Diego, was married with
children and was working on a master's or other advanced degree.

An undetermined amount of Princess Haifa Al-Faisal¶s money found its way to

the September 11th martyrs Khalid al-Midhar and Nawaq al-Hazmi, when they lived in
San Diego thanks to Omar Al-Bayoumi. The apartment manager of the dwelling in
which Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Midhar lived told the FBI that Omar Al-Bayoumi
paid their first month's rent and security deposit because they had not yet established a
local bank account and the apartment complex would not accept cash. Midhar and
Hazmi used their own names on the lease.

In 1998 Omar Al-Bayoumi¶s apartment manager contacted the FBI to report her
suspicions regarding Omar Al-Bayoumi¶s activities. The manager reported that the U.S.
Postal Inspection Service had notified her in March 1998 that Omar Al-Bayoumi had
been sent a "suspicious" package from the Middle East. According to the manager, the
package had broken open and had a number of wires protruding from it. She reported
further that the apartment complex maintenance man had noticed a number of wires
protruding beneath the bathroom sink in Omar Bayoumi's master bedroom. She
reported that there had been large meetings of men, who based upon their dress
appeared to be Middle Eastern, gathering in Bayoumi's apartment on weekend
evenings. On September 8, 1998, the San Diego FBI opened a preliminary inquiry on

Al-Bayoumi. The assigned agent checked FBI indices for further information regarding
Al-Bayoumi and conducted other investigative steps. The agent contacted the U.S.
Postal Inspection Service in reference to the alleged "suspicious" package sent to Al-
Bayoumi. A postal inspector advised the FBI agent that "suspicious" did not necessarily
mean "nefarious" and the vast majority of suspicious packages were benign. The postal
inspector reviewed the report relating to the Al-Bayoumi package and told the agent that
the package had been deemed "suspicious" because it had no customs papers or
appropriate postage and originated in Saudi Arabia. According to the report, there was
no record of any wires protruding from the package, Al-Bayoumi had retrieved the
package, and it was no longer called a "suspect parcel." How did the package get
delivered without postage or a customs declaration?

A review of Omar Al-Bayoumi and Khalid al-Midhar's financial records after

September 11th indicated that Al-Bayoumi was reimbursed for the rent and security on
the same day it was paid so it would not appear as if Omar Bayoumi was fronting for the
Brothers. On March 20, 2000, a long distance telephone call was placed from Khalid al-
Midhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi's Mount Ada apartment to Midhar¶s father-in-laws home. A
record of the call was captured in Midhar and Hazmi¶s toll records. After the September
11th Raids, the call was identified through a record check on out-going calls, as there
was no program that traced incoming calls placed to the Sanaa safehouse. Had this
been available it is possible that Hazmi and al-Midhar might have come to the attention
of the FBI. One of the FBI¶s best sources in San Diego, Abdussattar Shaikh, informed
the FBI that he thought that Omar al-Bayoumi must be an intelligence officer for Saudi
Arabia. This was because Omar al-Bayoumi reportedly delivered $400,000 to the
Islamic Kurdish community in El Cajon, California in order to build a mosque. Of course
the Saudis denied any connection to him.44 Interestingly enough Abdussattar Shaikh
told Nawaf al-Hazmi to stay away from Bayoumi because of his alleged association with
the Saudi government, as if he knew Nawaf al-Hazmi had something to hide.

The FBI agent received no further substantive information in response to various

information checks on Omar Al-Bayoumi. According to the agent, the only remaining
option was to conduct an interview of Omar Al-Bayoumi. After her supervisor consulted
with fellow FBI agents who were working on a large, sensitive ³counterterrorism´
investigation involving an alleged ³terrorist organization,´ the supervisor instructed the
agent not to conduct the subject interview of Omar Al-Bayoumi. The FBI file indicates
that the decision not to conduct an interview was due to an investigation that included a
proposed proactive element. The FBI believed that the benefits of interviewing Omar Al-
Bayoumi did not justify the risk to the proposed operation. The Bureau had connected
him with us, but closed its inquiry on Omar al-Bayoumi in July 1999 because it was
leading to our connection with the Saudis, not because an interview would compromise
its operation. Princess Haifa had hosted a dinner for Alma Powell (the mental case bi-
polar wife of U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell) and this might have proven
embarrassing. The responsible FBI agent said that 
closed the inquiry because the
original counterterrorism complaint turned out to be false and 
had developed no

44
. http://www.saudiembassy.net/press_release/releases/03-PR-0723-Bandar-Bayoumi.htm
other information of such significance as to justify continuing the investigation.45 Another
possible source of suspicion was Omar al-Bayoumi¶s passport, which contained a
cachet that intelligence investigators associate with possible adherence to Islamism. It
is a marking that can be obtained by especially devout Muslims and by those in al-
Qaeda. The 9/11 Commission believed the marking suggested the need for further
inquiry.46

Omar Al-Bayoumi was charged with visa fraud47 but was in Britain when the
charges were lodged, where this crime is not an extraditable offense. Since some of the
money did go for  
 , it will be impossible for the FBI to prove that this
was Saudi pay-off money and since there was no need for Omar Al-Bayoumi to know
anything about the September 11th operation, the his unwitting complicity will go
unpunished, Alhumdulallah. This was genius, for in our code, the words ³medical
expenses´ meant ³Jihad.´ After Mohammed Al Hasan al-Moayad was arrested in
Germany the FBI reported, ³Al-Moayad told CI-1 that he explained to Associate 3 that
CI-1 was not only going to help with the µoven¶ but take care of µmedical expenses¶ in
Germany.´48

After Omar Al-Bayoumi left the United States in mid-2001, Osama Bassnan, who
the Americans have deported for visa fraud, took over the funding operation. Bassnan
was a friend of Osama ³Sam´ Mustafa and lived in an apartment complex in San Diego
across the street from Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Midhar. The FBI did not investigate
Osama Bassnan before September 11th, but had been made aware of him on several
occasions. In May 1992, the State Department provided the FBI with a box of Arabic
documents recovered from an abandoned car that was somehow linked to Osama
Bassnan that concerned the Eritrean Islamic Jihad (EIJ) Movement. The Eritrean
Islamic Jihad had been connected to bin Laden as of 1996. A high-level member of the
Eritrean Islamic Jihad was on bin Laden¶s Shura Council. The FBI opened a
counterterrorism inquiry on the Eritrean Islamic Jihad, but, having failed to develop
information that would predicate further investigation, closed the investigation in
December 1992. In 1993, the FBI received reports that Osama Bassnan had hosted a
party for Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman in Washington, D.C. in 1992. However, the FBI did
not open an investigation. After September 11th, the FBI developed information clearly
indicating that Bassnan is a Brother but in March 2004 the FBI concluded that Omar al-
Bayoumi and Osama Bassnan were not intelligence agents for the Saudis.49

pursue drug trafficking as its top priority in 2001. Our review of the
Hazmi/al-Midhar chronology revealed no appreciable shift in resources by
the FBI's San Diego Field Office in response to these changed priorities.
We found that prior to September 11, 2001, the actual investigative priority
for the San Diego Field Office was drug trafficking. According to former
San Diego Special Agent in Charge William Gore, the highest
concentration of FBI agents and resources in San Diego was directed at
combating drug trafficking based on the FBI's process and procedures
used each year to set priorities in its field offices. He said that white-collar
crime was the office's second priority, and violent crime was its third
priority«While the FBI made counterterrorism its top priority on paper, the
FBI took few steps to ensure that field offices complied with this
directive.50

 


 

The German police found the business card of Muhammad J. Fakihi, chief of the
Islamic Affairs branch of the Saudi Embassy in Berlin in Mounir el-Motassadeq¶s
apartment along with records of numerous calls to the Islamist Dar al-Assima al-Nahr
group in Saudi Arabia beginning in December 2000, when the September 11th
Operation was underway. Cell phone numbers of the leaders of Dar al-Assima al-Nahr
were found saved on Brother Motassadeq¶s computer.51 Muhammad J. Fakihi was in
contact with Brother Ihsan Garnaoui, who trained Taliban troops for five years, as both
men had attended the Al Nur Mosque in Berlin. When the United States pressured
Germany into declaring Muhammad J. Fakihi a    he fled from

Thanks to American pressure after 9/11, the Saudis began missing protection
money pay-offs so al-Qaeda did some actions within the Land of Two Mosques. In
February 2003 Robert Dent, 37, was shot 10 times as he waited in his silver Honda car
at traffic lights in a residential area of Riyadh.53 Dent was a commercial officer for
defense giant BAe (British Aerospace) who had spent 10 years in the Middle East. Saud
bin Ali bin Nasser was arrested shortly after the incident. Security officials had
examined a machine gun and bullet casings found at the scene and linked them to Bin
Nasser, who is a relation of the former head of al-Qaeda in Yemen, Kamal Derwish,
who died in a CIA Predator missile attack and is a member of the same clan as Qaed
Salim Sinan al-Harathi, a key organizer in Cole Operation. In May 2003 the Saudi police

disguises and tens of thousands of dollars in cash. On May 12, 2003 al-Qaeda again
struck the Vinnell Corporation, killing 34 including eight Americans. Sixty FBI agents
came to the Kingdom to investigate. Jemaah Islamiah leader Abdulrahman Monsour
Jabarah was implicated in this event as was Usama bin Laden: A folded handwritten
letter, stained with blood, signed with the name bin Laden was found in the pocket of
one of the Brothers who was killed by the Saudis after the attack. When the Saudis
discovered that this activity was planned in Iran Prince Mohammad bin Nayef55, the
Assistant Interior Minister for Security Affairs (the third-highest ranking official in the
Interior Ministry or Mabahith the functional equivalent of the FBI in Saudi Arabia) visited
there and demanded the Iranians turn over bin Laden's son and other Saudis, including
the cousin of one of the Riyadh bombers, Turki Dandani. The Iranians refused to do
so.56 In November 2003 al-Qaeda struck a compound in Riyadh where Arabs and
Westerners lived together and sinned together. In December 2003 al-Qaeda staged an
unsuccessful assassination attempt on Major General Abdelaziz al-Huweirini, the
kingdom's top counterterrorism official, an attack that the Saudi government has never
made public. Major General Abdelaziz al-Huweirini was lightly wounded but his brother
was seriously wounded! Later in that month a major from the Mabahith narrowly missed
death.57 In January 2004 Usama bin Laden issued this statement,

It has become clear that the rulers [of the Gulf States] are not qualified to
apply the religion and defend the Muslims. In fact, they have provided
evidence that they are implementing the schemes of the enemies of the
nation and religion and that they are qualified to abandon the countries

Other Saudis without whom al-Qaeda could not exist include Yassin al-Kadi who
the U.S. government designated as a foreign terrorist entity. Yassin Al-Kadi was a
Director of Global Diamond Resources, based in Nevada. Along with al-Kadi on the
board of directors were representatives of the Bin Laden family who invested in Global
Diamond Resources a year before al-Kadi did.58 The diamond industry allowed al-
Qaeda to launder millions of dollars through the purchase of illegally mined diamonds. A
pound of diamonds in 2002 was worth around $225,000, compared with a pound of
cash that was worth $45,000 and a pound of gold, which was worth $4,800. Between
1993 and 2001 al-Qaeda raised funds and hid its assets this way and al-Qaeda even
developed its own diamond mines.59 Jamal Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl was asked
about our interest in this business: He responded: ³We had started diamond and gold a
mining business in Tanzania in early 1993. I was one of the directors.´ The 2004

Yassin Al-Kadi, a man who wears many ghutrah¶s,62 also headed the Saudi-
based al-Muwafaq63 Foundation, an al-Qaeda front that transferred millions of dollars in
protection money from wealthy Saudi businessmen to bin Laden. After the 1995 arrest
of Ramzi Yousef the Pakistani police raided the local offices of Muwafaq in Islamabad
and Mercy International (registered in Switzerland). Islamabad lawyer Farrukh Karim
Qureshi said the local head of Al-Muwafaq, Amir Mehdi, was held in prison for several
months before being released without charge. Qureshi also represented the Mercy
International, Zahid Shaikh Mohammed, had told him the police investigation was
sparked because Yousef had made a phone call to the Mercy offices.64

From January 1998 through August 1998 (after the East African Embassy
Operation the account had served its purpose and was closed), bank records show al-
Kadi transferred $1.25 million from his Geneva bank account through an associate to an
alleged Al-Qaeda front company in Turkey known as Maram, the goal in Arabic.65
Mahmdouh Mahmud Salim founded Maram in December 1996 as an Istanbul travel
agency. In July 1997 Turkish records show all of Mahmdouh Mahmud Salim's shares in
Maram were transferred to Wael Julaidan and his business partner at Maram,
Mohamed Bayazid. American Express billing records indicate that Bayazid moved from
the United States to Turkey in or about April 1998. Following Bayazid's move to Turkey,
telephone records of Bayazid's relatives in the United States reflect a number of calls to
the number in Turkey contacted by Benevolence International Foundation (Enaam M.
Arnaout) in November 1998. Moreover, telephone records for Maram in Turkey, which
Mamdouh Salim admits he sold to Bayazid, reflect calls to Benevolence International
Foundation in Illinois in August and September 1998.

Tunisian national. On October 12, 2001, the U.S. Treasury named Ayadi as a ³specially designated global terrorist´ and ordered his
assets frozen. Al-Kadi first met Ayadi in 1999, when Ayadi was nominated by Wa¶el Julaydan to take over Al-Muwafaq in Bosnia.

fortune and contributions from his wealthy colleagues. Yassin al-Kadi is a director of the
Pakistani Himont Chemical Firm. Himont USA was sold to the Montell Chemical group
in 1995.67 Yassin al-Kadi was the co-owner of a chemical plant in suburban Chicago
where many useful toxic chemicals were stockpiled.68

Dr. Abdul Latif Saleh of the Haramain Foundation and Yassin al-Kadi had
entered into several business partnerships with one another, including a sugar importing
business, a medical enterprise, and a construction business. Dr. Saleh served as the
general manager of all of Yassin al-Kadi's businesses in Albania and reportedly holds
ten percent of the Kadi Group's investments in Albania.69 Wael Julaidan and Yassin al-
Kadi continue to operate with total impunity despite (false) assurances by Saudi officials
that their v
 careers had been shut down, or that they had been put under house
arrest. A statement by Saudi Arabia¶s Minister of Islamic Affairs, Endowments, Dawa
and Guidance, Saleh ibn Abdul Aziz Al-Sheikh provides insight into Saudi Arabia¶s
resolve to close charities aiding ³terrorism.´ Toward the end of 2004 the Minister told an
audience in Jeddah that al-Haramain was closed under U.S. pressure and not because
the Saudi government had any "suspicions surrounding its activities." It was closed he
said "to serve the general interest." The ministry, he said, was not aware of any
misconduct from the Saudi charity and had not received any documented information to
this effect from any side. He re-assured the audience that the Saudi government had no
plans to act against any further charities, or to take any additional action against al
Haramain employees. They would be free, he said, to find employment in other
charities. In the meantime, al-Haramain international operations and assets, he said,
would be folded into a new body named the Saudi National Commission for Charitable
Works Abroad.70

developed property in Indianapolis, Indiana, Baltimore, Oxon Hill, Maryland and other
locations) the International Trade Division, and the Venture Capital Division.71

During a civil deposition Soliman Biheiri testified that concurrently with the
establishment of the Islamic Relief Organization office in Virginia, Dr. Sulaiman bin Ali
Al-Ali told him that he (Al-Ali) was to receive $10 million dollars from the International
Islamic Relief Organization in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, which was to be given to Sana-
Bell, Inc. Sana-Bell, Inc. then invested $3.7 million with BMI or one of its affiliates.72
Working for the Islamic Relief Organization can be used against a Brother. Mustafa
Ahmed Hamlily told this to a Military Tribunal at Gitmo,

In the name of Allah the merciful, I will tell the truth. What I have already
said to the interrogator was the truth. I am an innocent man. I have not
committed any crimes and should not be here. I have never been in
trouble nor have I ever been a member of any organization. These
organizations are against my religion. By nature, I don't like Moses and
problems. For this reason, I live in a remote village away from the city. If I
wanted to be a combatant and participate in these activities I would have
done that in my own country, For the last fifteen years, I have not any
problems with anyone in my village. Anyone in my village can verify that. I
am forty-five and I am not going to do anything foolish. If I were going to
do these things, I would have done them when I was younger. I am a
Muslim. Islam is against all terrorism, violence and problems between
people.

The military officer presiding over the tribunal pointed out that Mustafa Ahmed
Hamlily voluntarily traveled from Mauritania, Africa to Saudi Arabia then to Islamabad,
Pakistan in 1987 to work for the Islamic Relief Organization (IRO). Mustafa Ahmed
Hamlily testified that his original plan was to stay in Saudi Arabia and study, but he
could not get residency status. Before leaving, Mustafa Ahmed Hamlily said he went to
the Islamic Relief Organization and got a job in Pakistan but not in Saudi Arabia. He
also said he never worked or associated with a terrorist organization. Mustafa Ahmed
Hamlily said he received weapons training on the Kalashnikov rifle while working for the
Islamic Relief Organization, not for al-Qaeda. The fact the training took place near the
border town of Peshawar, Pakistan, was a mere coincidence. Between 1991 and 2001,
Mustafa Ahmed Hamlil traveled back and forth between Algeria, Pakistan, Yemen, and
Pakistan.´73

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in 1928 by Hasan al-

Banna a humble 22-year-old Egyptian elementary school teacher,
ostensibly as an Islamic revivalist movement following the collapse of
the Ottoman Empire. Al-Banna the Elder was a devout admirer of
Adolph Hitler and wrote to him frequently. So persistent was he in his
admiration of the new Nazi Party that in the 1930's, Al-Banna and the
Muslim Brotherhood became a secret arm of Nazi intelligence. The Brotherhood was in
effect the Islamist-arm of the Third Reich and had much in common with the new Nazi
doctrines. It hated Jews; it hated democracy; and it hated Western culture. Committed
to the defense of private property and capitalism, the Brotherhood harbored a particular
and savage hatred of communism and Marxism. It became the official policy of the Third

Reich to secretly develop the Muslim Brotherhood as the fifth column, an army inside
Egypt. When war broke out, the Muslim Brotherhood promised in writing that they would
rise up and help General Rommell and make sure that no English or American soldier
was left alive in Cairo or Alexandria.

On February 12, 1949 Hasan al-Banna was gunned down in the streets of Cairo.
The assassins were security agents of King Farouk's government that had become
worried about the growing strength of the Brotherhood. The king's government had
outlawed the Brotherhood in December 1948, and the Brotherhood had responded by
assassinating Prime Minister Mahmud Fahmi al-Nuqrashi the following month (January,
1949). The ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood lives on and is embodied in its flag
depicts a Qu¶ran guarded by two swords. Our faith that violence should be employed to
defend our beliefs has never been hidden and never will be. We the Elder¶s of Islam are
the direct descendants of the early Muslim Brotherhood and it was only natural to join
forces with Francois Genoud a Swiss lawyer who funded Hitler and served as a German
agent during World War II. After the war, Genoud underwrote the clandestine Odessa
organization, which helped Nazi fugitives Adolf Eichmann, Alois Brunner and Klaus
Barbie and others avoid persecution by escaping to the Middle East and South America.
Youssef Nada and several of his Brothers were recruited by German military
intelligence, which sought to undermine British colonial rule in Egypt.

A committee of Muslim scholars that is headed by Sheik Youssef al-Qaradawi of

the Egyptian branch of the Brotherhood of Islam75 assists the Nada Management
board.76 The committee¶s purpose is to make sure Nada conforms to Islamic doctrine
such as a ban on reba.77 It is very difficult for our economy to function without reba. To
circumvent this the Islamic financial system employs the concept of participation in the
enterprise, utilizing the funds at risk on a profit-and-loss-sharing basis. The Islamic
depositor owns part of the bank and as the bank becomes worth more so does the
shareholder¶s stake in it. If one buys a thousand dollar ³interest´ in a bank and the bank
shows a profit of 10% each year than you get eleven hundred dollars back at the end of
the year. This is not a matter of semantics; our foremost religious scholars have
approved this. During his torture in Egypt Mahmud Abouhalima was said to have
attacked Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman for having kept our funds in an interest bearing
account. He was also reported to have told his interrogators El-Sayyid Nosair did not kill
Kahane but was part of a diversionary effort.78 He told the Egyptians anything that they
wished him to say, even that his Sheikh was a fake and that an Egyptian did not kill
Kahane.

FBI Special Agent Robert Wright conducted an investigation of our

financing that focused on BMI, Inc. and BMI was named as a conduit
for Hamas related funds in a 1998 FBI court filing.79 In an affidavit

had subpoenaed both Soliman Biheiri and a person identified as the Vice President of
BMI. In response to those events, a BMI accountant contacted an FBI Agent and stated
³funds the accountant was transferring overseas on behalf of the company may have
been used to finance the embassy bombings in East Africa in 1998´ an oblique
reference to the Maram Travel Agency. In December 2002 FBI Special Agents Robert
Wright and John Vincent said they were called off criminal investigations of suspected
Brothers linked to the deadly bombings of the two U.S. Embassies in East Africa. Wright
and Vincent, then based in Chicago, were assigned to track a connection to a
suspected cell that would later lead them to a link with Usama bin Laden. Wright said
that when he pressed for authorization to open a criminal investigation into the activities
of Yassin al-Kadi his supervisor stopped him.80

In August 2003 Soliman Biheiri was indicted for unlawful procurement of

naturalization and making materially false statements. Soliman S. Biheiri was convicted
in October 2003 of lying under oath to obtain U.S. citizenship. Instead of the usual six-
month sentence prosecutors asked for 10 years based on his connection to us. U.S.
District Judge T.S. Ellis III ruled that although Soliman Biheiri managed al-Qaeda
money there was no evidence he ³intended to support a crime of terrorism" by obtaining
U.S. citizenship. Ellis sentenced Soliman S. Biheiri to the maximum 12 months in prison
after which he was to be deported "These prosecutors cannot make up for the
prosecutors in the '90s who were asleep at the switch," Judge Ellis said. But just before
his release he was charged with making false statements to federal investigators by
denying a business relationship with Mousa Abu Marzook and Sami al-Arian.81

Yassin al-Kadi was an investor in Ptech Software, whose offices were ransacked
by the FBI in December 2002. Dr. Hussein Ibrahim, the former BMI contact man, was

however, Goins continued to work with Ptech throughout 2002, even selling Ptech
software to the Executive Office of the White House in April 2002. Soon after the
September 11th Raids, FBI agents interviewed Suheil Laher, an employee of Ptech, who
was involved with the Islamic charity Care International. The FBI investigated Care
International, a Muslim fund-raising group, because the FBI thought it was linked to Al-
Kifah Refugee Center.82 Al-Kifah¶s Boston office on Commonwealth Avenue was
located in the same suite that Care International listed in its 1993 incorporation
documents. The Al-Kifah Refugee Center registered a Web site that has been used by
Care International. And the militant Islamic newsletter ‘ (The Sword) listed its
publisher as The Al-Kifah Refugee Center until April 1993, after which it listed Care
International as its publisher. The newsletter¶s address also is the one on
Commonwealth Avenue.

Yassin al-Kadi enjoyed the reputation of being an upstanding

Saudi businessman. Those loyal to him would be rewarded by him in
this world, and by Allah in the next world. And, Praise Be to Allah, a
Muslim FBI agent decided to take the more valuable of the two
rewards. Arab FBI Agent Gamal Abdel-Hafiz thwarted the
investigation of Yassin al-Kadi two years before the September 11th
Raids and never received not even one riyal for his efforts. In an
affidavit dated March 21, 2000 FBI agent Robert Wright and John
Vincent83 alleged that Gamal Abdel-Hafiz refused to co-operate with
an FBI probe into BMI by stating, ³a Muslim does not record another Muslim despite the
fact he had been approached by al-Kadi¶s associate Soliman Biheiri.´84 Abdel-Hafiz flat
out refused to secretly record Biheiri. In 2000 Barry Carmody, a 34-year FBI veteran
who worked on counter-intelligence in the agency¶s Tampa office, and is now retired,
stated: ³I asked S.A. Gamal Abdel-Hafiz to record a telephone conversation during a
meeting with an individual involved in an open FBI criminal investigation [Sami Al-Arian].
Abdel-Hafiz refused to record this telephone conversation, saying he would make the
call but would not record it.´85 Of course the logical outcome of this thinking must be, ³a
Muslim does not become an FBI agent either´ because wiretaps and ELSUR and
entrapping Brothers is about all that they do.

Who is this hero of Islam? Gamal Abdel-Hafiz, born in Cairo, Egypt graduated
from Al-Azar University with a Bachelor degree in language and translation. He had
military experience in the Egyptian army then came to the United States in 1984. He
worked a translator for an import-export business owned by his brother then went to
Saudi Arabia for a year where he worked as a translator for the Air Defense Forces.
Upon his return to the United States he worked as a convenience store manager in the
ghetto neighborhoods of Fort Worth, Texas then became an FBI translator who worked
on the case of Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman.86 During this show trial he was asked:

Q. You yourself own cassettes and tapes of the sheik¶s sermons do you
not, Mr. Abdel-Hafiz?

. Yes, ma¶am.

Abdel-Hafiz was questioned about the conversation that Salem

reported had taken place between Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman and Abu
Abdullah, that is Usama bin Laden:

 Q. Mr. Gamal Hafiz, to go back a little bit, Exhibit 713T is a transcript of a
conversation between Sheik Omar, and a person named Abdallah in
Pakistan, is that right is that right?

. Yes, that is correct.

Q. This part of the conversation was picked up while the sheik was
actually dialing Pakistan, is that right?

. Yes, ma¶am was dialing.

Q. And I think we ended up Friday by saying that in your translation there

was no word such as troops or army in that conversation, is that right?

. No, ma¶am, there were not.

Q. And no mention of moving the troops to Afghanistan and then to Egypt,

is that right?

The testimony of a translator is critical. In the trial of the Brothers in our Detroit
cell translations have diverged. The prosecution claimed that one passage, recorded
while videotaping at Disneyland, termed the site a ³rising cemetery.´ A defense
translator said the passage meant ³what a lovely view.´ After Senior Airman Ahmad I.
al-Halabi was arrested military investigators reviewed taped interrogations involving the
Arabic-language interpreters to make sure they were not deliberately mistranslated.87
The Holy Land Foundation has charged that it was framed for laundering money for
Samah (its code name for Hamas), due to faulty translation.88 Translation was pivotal in
the case against Yassin Aref, 34, and Mohammed Hossain, 49, who were arrested in a
sting operation in which authorities said they agreed to help FBI informant launder
money to buy a shoulder-fired missile as part of a plan to assassinate Munir Akram,
Pakistan's ambassador to the United Nations. A word in Yassin Aref¶s possession,
written in Arabic, had referred to Mr. Aref as "commander." As it turns out, the word is
Kurdish, albeit written using the Arabic alphabet and the translation may be incorrect.
"Commander" could be translated as "brother," according to federal prosecutors. Nijyar
Shemdin, the United States representative for the Kurdistan Regional Government in
Washington, reviewed a copy of the page and said he did not see how a translation
would have come up with the word "commander."89 After the Sheik Omar Abdul
Rahman trial, where he testified more than any other witness, Gamal Abdel-Hafiz
claimed he received numerous death threats then entered the FBI Academy and
became an agent in 1996.

 After working on al-Qaeda cases such as the Cole and Khobar Towers in
February 2001 Abdel-Hafiz was promoted to the post of Deputy Legal Attaché in
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. In 2001 the FBI's Saudi office comprised a secretary, the Legat,
Wilfred Samuel Rattigan, a black American who converted to Islam90 in December
2001, and his Assistant Gamal Abdel-Hafiz. Abdel-Hafiz was a pivotal figure in the
investigation of the links between the Saudis and the September 11th 2001 Events. Only
certain Muslim agents are allowed to hold this position, only those who truly believe in
Islam. In a June 6, 2005 letter to FBI Director Robert Mueller, the Senate Judiciary
Committee renewed a request for information about allegations that the FBI's Riyadh
office was "delinquent in pursuing thousands of leads" related to 9/11.

During the Lackawanna Sleeper Cell investigation in September 2002 Abdel-

Hafiz flew to Bahrain to interview cell member Mukhtar al-Bakri about a e-mail Mukhtar
al-Bakri had sent that read, ³The next meal will be very huge. No one will be able to
withstand it except those with faith.´ Mukhtar al-Bakri was a young, unseasoned v

who broke down and confessed to Abdel-Hafiz. Mukhtar al-Bakri was sentenced to ten
years in prison after he admitted that he provided material support to al-Qaeda by
obtaining a uniform, traveling to the al-Farooq training camp near Kandahar,
Afghanistan, and providing guard duty at the training camp. He also admitted receiving
weapons training and meeting with Usama bin Laden while at the al-Farooq camp.
Abdel-Hafiz apologized for the Brother, ³[He was an] all-American kid who loves so
much what he has in America and, for some reason, some how he got involved in this.´

Abdel-Hafiz was suspended in February 2003 after his ex-wife Bertie Ann Martin,
a Christian divorcee and mother of two, told the FBI that he had staged a break-in at
their home in 1989 in order to collect insurance money. CAIR defended the former
agent, saying this was merely anti-Arab discrimination. We understand this, but the
Learned Elders of Islam believe that Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman should be given a new
trial since a major Government witness has had his credibility called into question. In
March 2002 Bertie Ann Abdel-Hafiz filed for federal bankruptcy. Circa January 2004
Abdel-Hafiz filed a lawsuit against current and former FBI Agents. In March 2004 a
three-member FBI Disciplinary Review Board overturned his dismissal.91 The board
acted after concluding that allegations that he had been involved in a 15-year-old case
of insurance fraud and then lied about it to FBI investigators could not be corroborated.
The rare decision by the Disciplinary Review Board, a panel of three senior FBI
executives, reversed the action last year of Robert Jordan, who was then the assistant
director of the FBI¶s Office of Professional Responsibility, the unit charged with policing
internal misconduct. The Disciplinary Review Board noted that ³the failed polygraph
examination, considering your past history with that test, were not enough to
substantiate her allegations against you.´92 Abdel-Hafiz lawsuit has yet to fizz out. In
February 2006 he was granted a protective order that will effectively seal the record.

Abdel-Hafiz boss and Brother who performed Haj with him was Wilfred Samuel
Rattigan a Black man of Jamaican descent who graduated from John Jay College in
1981 with a B.A., and from Howard University in 1984 with a J.D. admitted to practice
law in the states of New York and Connecticut. In December 1987 Rattigan was hired
as a special agent with the FBI at an entry grade level. Rattigan was assigned to the
New York Office, Foreign Counterintelligence Division. While working in the New York
Office, Rattigan had assignments in foreign counterintelligence, drugs, undercover
investigations and white-collar crime. In 1996 Rattigan transferred to the FBI office at
JFK International Airport, where his duties included the investigation of crimes aboard
aircrafts and terrorism, including the TWA-800 al-Qaeda takedown. In February 1999
Rattigan applied for and was transferred to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and assigned to the
Office of Legal Attaché as the Assistant Legal Attaché in Saudi Arabia. The Legal
Attaché job in Riyadh had responsibility for FBI activities in seven countries: Kuwait,
Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Yemen and Qatar. As the
Assistant Legal Attaché in Riyadh, Rattigan was responsible for establishing and
developing liaison with local law enforcement officials in these seven countries. His
duties included arranging for training in country and at the FBI Academy for local law
enforcement officials and handling requests for assistance from domestic and
international FBI offices. Rattigan held the position of Assistant Legal Attaché in Riyadh
until July 2000. During the time he was Assistant Legal Attaché, Legal Riyadh had a
permanent staff consisting of one Legal Attaché one Assistant Legal Attaché and one
secretary. The Legal Attaché during this period of time was Egyptian-born FBI Agent
Bassem Youssef, who treated Rattigan with disdain and disrespect because Bassem
Youssef had supported another candidate for the Assistant Legal Attaché position.

In June 2000 Bassem Youssef departed Riyadh and Rattigan

who, in the absence of the assignment of a permanent Legal Attaché,
took over Bassem Youssef¶s duties as acting Legal Attaché. While
performing duties as the acting Legal Attaché, Rattigan requested an
encrypted phone for ³sensitive´ communications. Although former
Legal Attaché Youssef had been provided with an encrypted phone at
a ³secret´ level, which was in violation of diplomatic security rules,
Rattigan was never at any time provided with such a phone.

 In July 2000 Rattigan was appointed to the vacant position of Legal Attaché
Riyadh. At the beginning of his tenure as Legal Attaché Riyadh, Rattigan informed his
superiors at the FBI, including Unit Chief Knowles, that in order to perform effectively as
Legal Attaché Riyadh, Rattigan would have to receive additional support and training
from the Bureau. On October 12, 2000 Gamel Abdel-Hafiz began a temporary duty
assignment (³TDY´) as an assistant to Rattigan in Riyadh. On the same date, the USS
Cole was attacked in Aden harbor, Yemen. Because this attack occurred in the
jurisdiction of Legal Attaché Riyadh, the amount of work required to respond increased
greatly. Rattigan was required to arrange for a trip to the region by then FBI Director
Louis Freeh and to set up meetings for him with Yemeni and United States officials in
Yemen. Even though the workload had increased because of the attack on the USS
Cole, Rattigan was informed that the Bureau had not made a previously discussed
shifting of territorial responsibility to lessen the burden on the Riyadh office. After being
promoted to Legal Attaché Rattigan, acting through supervisory personnel, including
Investigatory Service Division / International Operations Branch Deputy Assistant
Director Leslie Kaciban Jr.,94 Investigatory Service Division / International Operations
Branch Section Chief Michael Pyszczymuka,95 Investigatory Service Division /
International Operations Branch Unit Chief Cary Gleicher,96 and SSA Donovan Leighton
attempted to force Rattigan to either seek transfer out of Riyadh or resign from the
Bureau. Leslie Kaciban inexplicably directed that Rattigan cease all contact that he had
with officials from the United Arab Emirates regarding the establishment of the Middle
Eastern Law Enforcement Training Center, even though that work was an important part
of Rattigan¶s work in Legat Riyadh. Supervisory Special Agent (³SSA´) Swinkey falsely
reported to Kaciban that Rattigan was continuing to arrange a meeting with UAE
officials to discuss training. Upon receiving Swinkey¶s false report, Kaciban called
Rattigan and threatened to, in Kaciban¶s words, ³cut (Rattigan¶s) balls off,´ a comment
which Rattigan understood to be direct evidence of racial bias against him. Cary
Gleicher, Rattigan¶s immediate supervisor, inappropriately went over the head of
Rattigan, and without informing Rattigan, sought information directly from the Saudi
government concerning an ongoing investigation. In doing so, Cary Gleicher discussed
the matter first with former Legat Bassem Youssef, who had been gone from Riyadh for
almost a year at that point, and not with Rattigan. On another occasion following 9/11,
Rattigan requested additional resources from Cary Gleicher and Michael Pyszcmuka to
follow up on leads coming into Legat Riyadh. These resources were either consistently
denied or delayed for inexplicable reasons. On October 3, 2001, during a discussion of
the anticipated support to be provided the Saudi Mabahith, Kaciban stated in connection
with a discussion about the PENTTBOMB investigation, ³Let¶s see how much his
(Rattigan¶s) Arab brothers are going to help him on this one.´ (Rattigan had not yet
converted but must have expressed his desire to do so). In October 2001 Cary Gleicher
visited the Riyadh office and met with Rattigan. Rattigan continued to request additional
resources, as well as the authority to arm himself and his staff because of significant
and credible threats to the United States Embassy in Riyadh that were made after 9/11.

96
. Gleicher became Assistant Legat in Tel Aviv then was transferred to India where he became Legat.
Gleicher¶s and Investigatory Service Division / International Operations Branch
management failed to respond in a timely fashion to these requests.

At some point, Kaciban, Gleicher and Pyszczymuka discontinued communicating

with Rattigan. The few times they were in contact, their approach to Rattigan was
hostile, demeaning and/or condescending, and reflected their inability to set aside their
own racial and religious animus in order to deal with Rattigan in a professional manner.
Upon their return from a TDY assignment in Riyadh, the returning TDYers were
consistently questioned by ISD supervisors about Rattigan in a way designed give the
clear impression that Rattigan was acting in a way that was disloyal. When Special
Agent Beth Babyak returned from temporary duty in Riyadh Michael Pyszczymuka
questioned her for 90 minutes. Babyak described the interview as an attempt to coerce
her into making derogatory statements against Legat Riyadh in general and Rattigan in
particular. In October 2001 Rattigan planned a two-day trip to liaison with UAE officials
in order to remove the obstacles that existed to the free flow of information from the
UAE relative to ongoing investigations being conducted by the Bureau, including
PENTTBOM. On or about October 23, 2001, Rattigan advised Unit Chief Susan Curtis97
of this proposed trip and received her concurrence. However, approximately two days
before the scheduled trip, Rattigan received an e-mail communication from Michael
Pyszczymuka directing Rattigan not to take the trip, even though Pyszczymuka had not
even talked to Rattigan about the trip. This kind of conduct is evidence of how
supervisory personnel in the Bureau did not want Rattigan to succeed, even at the
expense of compromising or delaying important investigations, including the 9/11
investigations, than being conducted by the Bureau. Rattigan, or RatAgain, as his fellow
FBI Agents call him, has given al-Qaeda a glimpse into the disarray of American
Diplomatic Installations in Saudi Arabia where fifteen of the nineteen September 11th
Shaheeds obtained their U.S. travel visas.

Rattigan has engaged the law firm of Rabinowitz and Boudin to pursue his claim
against the FBI. The Communist Jew Rabinowitz¶s prominent clients included the
government of the Republic of Cuba, Communists Paul Robeson, Alger Hiss and Fidel
Castro. Rabinowitz was the counsel to many Communist and Soviet front groups. The
Communist Jew Boudin¶s father was a founder of the Communist Party of the USA and
Boudin, along with his terrorist daughter, were both godless Marxists. Why would a
Muslim engage this law firm to pursue his (halal) beef with the FBI? Because both
Rattigan and Rabinowitz & Boudin wish to hamstring the FBI so that America¶s enemies
can destroy it.

Rattigan¶s boss, Bassem Yousef, was an Egyptian who became a naturalized US
citizen and joined the FBI in 1988 then, like Rattigan and Abdel-Hafiz filed a lawsuit
against it after the September 11th Raids. This is extracted from Bassem¶s deposition:

97
. FBI Agent subject of TV Series The X-Files
http://www.democrats.org.au/speeches/index.htm?speech_id=335&display=1
Q. Who do you believe discriminated against you?

. Everybody that was involved in the process, - in the EDSP (Executive

Development Selection Program) process, for that particular job, meaning
the SANS (ph) board or the first career board.

Q. Do you think that each person who served on the career board
individually discriminated against you? Or do you think it was a collective
discrimination, if you understand what I mean?

. No, I don't. I don't understand.

Q. Do you think they all got together and decided we're not going to
promote Bassem Youssef because he's from the Middle East? Or do you
think they all individually felt, I don't know if we want to put this person on
the position because he's from the Middle East, and so therefore, that's
why you didn't get risk?

. I can give my opinion on this? ...I will tell you a story of an actual
meeting I had with Sherry Farrar, the Assistant Director for administration.
This was around August 2002. She called me, and she mentioned that
Congressman Wolff's office basically asked her to get involved in my
issue. And she called me and she said, ³Would you come to my office?´ I
went in, and she said, do you mind if I get involved? And I said, absolutely
not. I'm begging for someone to be involved. We're not getting anyone to
come to the table. And we had a nice discussion. And she was saying
well, what is this all about? And I told her, I said, since 9/11, which I think
is an overarching issue here, much more so than just the SIOC (Strategic
Information and Operations Center), and I'll speak about both«Well, it just
so happens that it links with this here. For having my background in
counterterrorism which is extensive, is really an understatement. It is
exceptional in terms of the work that I've done. And much of it has been
redacted anyway that shouldn't have been redacted, because not all of it
was classified. And not to be called in after 9/11, when specifically on the
next morning, on Wednesday morning, and I went to NACIC (National
Counterintelligence Center) or the NCIX, (National Counterintelligence
Executive) and the deputy executive who was under Dave Szady came
into my office unsolicited, and she said to me, pack your bags, you're a
short timer. With your counterterrorism experience the FBI has to pull you
in right now, because they're pulling everybody from all over including
folks who are not working counterterrorism. And I assumed the same
thing, just like everybody else that called me from all over the place,
saying, you must be very busy, and I wasn't doing anything. I never got
pulled once to do anything in counterterrorism, when I've seen people who
had no counterterrorism experience be pulled it to make decisions about
how to work this Investigation.
 After 9/11 Ashcroft began a program of ³ethnic cleansing´ within the FBI and
agents with Middle Eastern backgrounds were investigated as possible double agents
or taken off ³terrorism´ assignments. Bassem was going to be sent to the Office of the
Budget, however, after the protested he was assigned to DocEx ± the document
exploitation section that examined paper found in jihadi caves in Afghanistan and
elsewhere.

Bassem:

They never called it a unit, they just said, "You go report to DocEx. And I'd
never heard of that before, so I was kind of intrigued a little bit: "DocEx;
wow, what does that mean?" I didn't even know it meant Document
Exploitation, which is DocEx. So I called Mr. Kinnally and he said, "Yeah,
DocEx; come, we'll talk about it," and I went to meet him. It was about
11:00 o'clock when I finally got to his office because he was out. And he
said to me "It's something we're doing with DIA and members of the
intelligence community, and a Harmony number or tracking number."
Okay. So I went there, not knowing what kind of an off-site it was. And it
was basically like a warehouse-type, a basement of the MITRE Building«I
mean, what DocEx was, NDPO, National Domestic Preparedness Office,
was not really part of the counterterrorism. And I want to say it became
defunct, and I don't mean It in a disrespectful manner, but NDPO, as an
entity within the FBI was no longer an entity. So they decided to take the
same staff, which means the - they called up the administrator, that was
Mike Kinnally - Tom Kinnally; I'm sorry. And said - well, there's this DocEx
thing, where it's actually a DIA mission where they go and collect
documents from Afghanistan in the caves, basically, not knowing what
their Intelligence value is. I mean, it could be something; it could be
nothing. And we bring that stuff back to the U.S. on C-131¶s and military
planes. And so they built this - not built; they established this DocEx thing,
document exploitation, looking at documents, seeing if this is worthwhile
or not. So I guess from the FBI's perspective, it was a project for helping
DIA. I'm not really sure what it was at the time.

Bassem¶s deposition focused on Dale Watson:



. Okay. You say that you are listing witnesses who you think might be
useful. And one of them is Dale Watson. What you state in here is that he
has information related to his own discriminatory conduct and animus.
Can you please tell me what you mean by that statement his
discriminatory conduct and animus?

. Mr. Watson knew of my work in Riyadh, and he knew that I got the
position because of my counterterrorism experience beforehand, which
again was exceptional. Often times what I had done in terms of using
sophisticated investigative techniques was never done before. Some of
those have been redacted, so I'm not going to mention them. But again,
much of it is not classified, so I'm stating for the record again, I don't know
why it was redacted. I placed a call to him right after 9/11, I believe on
Wednesday. And he wasn't in. I talked to his executive, and I mentioned to
her that I am working counterintelligence for the last few months but I've
been a counterterrorism man my entire Bureau career and I could
certainly come and help in any way that I can. I'm also a polygraph
examiner. I can do an exam in Arabic. Not too many people can do that. I
can help in any way that I can. I never heard from him. I talked to one unit
chief, and one section chief saying that I'm here, willing to help in any way.
Nobody came and talked to me. It boggles my mind, until today, that as a
counterterrorism asset and I'm not going to say I'm the only one, but I'm
going to say singular in nature, and many things that I'd done before. And
you hear testimony on the Hill by FBI executives saying, one of the
reasons for the Intelligence failures is that we don't have enough people
with the cultural background and the counterterrorism expertise and the
language. Then there is something wrong here. Either I did something
wrong, or I'm being blocked willfully for no good reason other than
because I'm of Middle Eastern background. And that would be my reason.
If it was somebody other than Dale Watson, I would say maybe they didn't
know me. But everybody in the counterterrorism division who actually had
any interaction in counterterrorism knew who I was«

Q. Why do you think he harbored some ill will toward you?

. Other than I'm of Middle Eastern background, I don't know«

Q. Now, I believe you said that you called Congressman Wolf's office and
then you later received a phone call from that office setting up an
appointment«

. [I] went and told them my story, which is basically that [to]
Congressman Wolf and his chief of staff. That was it. It was just in his
office.

Q. And what happened next?

. Then I get a call saying that we're going to bring in Director Mueller.
And I basically saw my career flash before my eyes, just knowing that that
is what it's going to. And I - my intention was not to have Director Mueller
come. I just wanted to know what would be the best counsel, what should
I do in this situation. I have talked to the ombudsman, I have gone to the
EEO office. I don't know what else to do.

Q. Did you mention the fact that you had not intended to bring Director
Mueller, personally involved in this, to Congressman Wolf or to his staff?

. Yes. And the - I believe both the chief of staff and his staffer - I can't
remember the name. Albright Mrs. Albright was the lady. Yeah.

Q. Is that the chief of staff or the staffer?

. No, that's the staffer. And she specifically said ³Well, if we do that
during the meeting that can have serious repercussions on his career."
And Congressman Wolf asked me "How much longer do you have before
you retire?" At that time I said either six or seven years; I can't remember.
So there was a concern on that. And even though Congressman Wolf
agrees that this could be a problem that - he said, "This is too serious; we
have got to bring in the director here." Congressman Wolf greeted
everybody and basically mentioned to Director Mueller that "I've asked
you here because we have - this is Bassem Youssef, one of your agents,
and I want him to tell you the story that he told me," and so basically
pointed to me and said, "Tell me what - tell Director Mueller. Tell Director
Mueller what you told me the last time we met," and so I basically said my
story again.

Q. And when you say, ³story,´ is that your career you went through what
your career was

. Right, what I had done, when I started in the Bureau, what I had
worked on, and that since 9/11 have not been doing anything with -
anything, not just with 9/11, but anything regarding terrorism.

Q. And what was - what happened after that?

. And after the director heard my story, he said, "I want to thank you for
coming forward with this. I assure you there will be no retaliation against
you for saying this. And If you experience any, you come let me know, or
let" - I don't remember the exact words.

Bassem had a distorted vision of his own worth and despite his braggadocio we
carried out numerous operations under his watch. Bassem¶s major case did not amount
to a hill of camel dung. On November 8, 1990, Jamal Mohamed Warrayat, a naturalized
U.S. citizen originally from Kuwait met with an FBI undercover agent (probably Bassem
Yousef) at the Newark International Airport. Warrayat, a naturalized U.S. citizen from
Kuwait who lived in Rutherford New Jersey discussed having a stockpile of weapons
and explosive materials to be used in planning an attack against military bases in
Texas, North Carolina, and Kansas, or attacks against President George Bush,
Secretary of State James Baker, and members of Congress. On December 13, 1991,
Warrayat pleaded guilty to 1 count of threatening the President. He was sentenced to
12 months of imprisonment and 3 years of supervised release. Andrew A. Apollony,
who was assigned to the FBI¶s terrorism squad in Newark stated, ³The Warrayat case
was a major terrorism case in Newark Division, and involved a FISA wiretap, a Title III
wiretap, and an undercover operation. The undercover operation insured the success of
this case. Plaintiff¶s interpretation of the type of weapon Warrayat declared he would
utilize to assassinate President Bush had absolutely no bearing on the outcome or
success of the case.´98

Bassem¶s lawsuit stated, ³Youssef played major roles in high profile

investigations, including PAKNAP in 1991.´ PAKNAP concerned the September 5, 1986
Pan American Flight Number 73 hijacking in Pakistan, during which Abu Nidel Group
executed two American citizens. The Statute of Limitations for obtaining an indictment
was about to expire. FBI SA Scott J. Jessee and Bassem flew to Pakistan to review the
evidence obtained by the Pakistani Government. By producing documents99 and the
testimony of Scott J. Jessee who was in charge of the investigation the US Government
attempted to show Bassem was translator, not an investigator and did not debrief,
interview or extract confessions of ANG members as he claimed as they had already
confessed their involvement in the action in 1986.

Bassem Yousef was also involved in ISLAMIC REVENGE in 1992 (the regional
security officer at the Israeli Embassy in Ankara was killed by a car bomb on March 7,
1992. The Islamic Revenge Organization claimed responsibility in protest against
Israel's February 16, 1992 assassination of Hizb¶allah secretary-general Sheikh Abbas
Mousawi in south Lebanon) These documents were generated,

he had no information ³that the plaintiff was ever an affiant on any FISA declarations or
had a role in managing FISAs for the FBI¶s terrorist cases´ while in Los Angeles.102
Youssef claimed he was ³the entire terrorism program´ in Los Angeles at this time. FBI
Agent Edward J. Curran backed him up:

. I'm going back ten years. I need help to refresh some of my memory. It
was my is understanding, that the Blind Sheikh had already been to Los
Angeles on one or several occasions before I got there, and then he was
there or he visited there while I was there. And at that time, there was a
great deal of interest in him and attention by not just Los Angeles, the
headquarters was interested, the FBI, and a lot of groundwork that had
been developed and my understanding of our network out there had been
developed mainly by Bassem was the one that went out and did that.

Q. When you say Mr. Youssef did the groundwork on that, what do you
mean by that?

. Basically that cell would have been there and nothing would have
happened if nobody was there investigating and identifying the cell
members and these activities. As far as I was concerned, Bassem was the
only one really doing that.

FBI official Carolyn J. Kelliher reported,

While I was assigned to the terrorism squad in Los Angeles, I had six to
eight Gama¶a al-Islamiyya cases. I never knew plaintiff to be ³Islamic
Group Co-ordinator.´ I never co-ordinated my Gama¶a al-Islamiyya cases
with him, and he never had any oversight of my Gama¶a al-Islamiyya
cases.´ Bassem¶s attorney stated, ³Assume that he was able and had the
skills necessary to turn one of the highest placed recruitments in place in a
predecessor organization of al-Qaeda. Assume that he was able to
develop intelligence to establish numerous FISAs on Middle Eastern
terrorist organizations in some way historically related to al-Qaeda or
directly related including or not limited to on the blink sheik prior to the first
World Trade Center.
Bassem:

If we're looking about working al-Qaeda, that at that time was not just the
Bureau's, but the nation's number one terrorism event that happened
against the United Nations against the United States, and al-Qaeda is an
offshoot of Gama¶a al-Islamiyya, and Gama¶a al-Islamiyya is an offshoot
from the Muslim Brotherhood. And anybody that knows anything about
terrorism, and knows anything about those groups, would know that. And
here's somebody (Bassem Youssef) who was the coordinator for the

102
. Bassem v Gonzales Document 109-4 on Pacer
 Gama¶a al-Islamiyya program in Los Angeles, not just working the cases
of the other agents, coordinating the cases of the other agents in the
division, but in other divisions. And being solicited in terms of input an how
to help with this FISA, or we need to vet this source, what do you think we
should do? How do we proceed with this investigation? When we actually
arrested when we were planning on arresting Omar Rahman right after the
World Trade Center bombing, which was in April sometime. The bombing
happened the first time in 1993, February 26th, 1993. In April is when the
plan was to arrest him. We didn't arrest him until later sometime in August,
I believe, the same year. I was in Newark working on something else, and
I got a call from switchboard saying, the assistant director for national
security because that was the overall, the assistant director over national
security was also responsible for counterterrorism. At that time it was Neal
Gallagher who was trying to reach out for me in LA, couldn't find me. They
said he's in Newark. Called me in Newark. He said, I need to get with you
on a secure line. TelI me what you think we should do. Should we arrest
the Blind Sheikh or not? And what are the ramifications, what are the
repercussions? I am being my opinion is being solicited on things that are
major here, not just In terms of my cases In Los Angeles. And this was the
pattern all along. And then all of a sudden I'm being snubbed completely.
And now when Dale Watson is in that position, it's against me. And I don't
know for any other reason. Because my record reflects that I had done
unbelievable work in counterterrorism with great success. Not just, I've
worked on some cases. But my results were singular in nature. And not to
be called in, after I even went so far as to call, which I don't think I should
be calling, he should know, not he specifically, Dale Watson, but anybody
In that position would know, we need to bring in all our resources, and
especially resources that are not that common.

Bassem¶s complaint continued, ³KOHBOMB, KENBOM, HIZBALLAH,

TRADEBOM, Blind Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman investigation, International Radical
Fundamentalist Matters and Usama bin Laden. Youssef served as a coordinator,
supervisor and/or Case Agent on these matters«In 1993, Youssef was commended, in
writing, by the responsible U.S. Ambassador for his participation in a sensitive
International Terrorism investigation in which Youssef demonstrated his 
  
and his ability to use his Arabic language ability during a meeting with Egypt¶s Minister
of Interior and Director of Egyptian State Security. This meeting

Resulted in SA Youssef brokering better relations between the FBI and

the Egyptian police who    
      
 
     
  ´ Egyptian terrorists domiciled in the United
States«In 1995, Youssef received the Director of Central Intelligence
Award. This is one of the most coveted awards in the Counterintelligence /
Counterterrorism arena. In February 1997, Bassem Youssef was
promoted to the position of Legal Attaché in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This
position has responsibility for FBI activities in the following countries:
 Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates and
Yemen. This promotion was based, in part, on the exceptional liaison Mr.
Youssef affected with high-ranking Middle Eastern law enforcement
officials during the initial phase of a major counterterrorism investigation
[the Khobar bombing where Yousef convinced the Saudis to allow the FBI
to interview the v
 who had been apprehended after the event].

Bassem Yousef believed that some FBI agents regarded Arabs as ragheads,
camel humpers and sand-niggers. He also believed that there was insensitivity to Islam
on higher levels, ³For example, Dale Watson, the former FBI Assistant Director for
Counterterrorism visited Saudi Arabia and engaged in conduct openly antagonistic to
our Arab hosts and allies. On one occasion, in a highly sensitive meeting discussing a
highly sensitive initiative between the FBI and the Mabahith, Bassem Youssef briefed
Dale Watson prior to the meeting that the Saudi officials had already agreed to provide
the information the FBI had requested. Instead of thanking the Saudi officials (which
included the Director of the Mabahith) Dale Watson opened the meeting with insulting
and antagonistic statements that demonstrated his deeply felt hostility toward Arabs. His
comments were so shocking that another American FBI official in the room asked
Youssef, when translating the Dale Watson¶s comments into Arabic, to tone down the
gist of his remarks. Youssef informed this FBI official that the Director of the Mabahith
understood English. Dale Watson was also was found by the Mabahith to have illegally
smuggled liquor103 into Saudi Arabia. This not only violated Saudi law and undermined
the law enforcement mission of the FBI, but it also further demonstrated hostility to Arab
culture. Based on Mr. Bassem Youssef¶s expertise in these areas, he was able to
perform effective damage control regarding these (and other) matters.´

Prior to 9/11 the FBI failed to properly follow-up on two leads into alleged
Usama bin Laden activities due to discriminatory treatment of Bassem
Youssef. On one such lead, Youssef obtained information regarding a
potentially valuable source in Yemen who claimed to have information
regarding the East Africa Embassy bombings. [Abd al Rahim al-Nashiri a,
cousin of Azzam, had obtained a Yemeni passport for a member of the
East African Embassy Event crew]. Bassem Youssef debriefed the source
and concluded that he needed access to an Agent more directly familiar
with the facts of those bombings. Bassem Youssef¶s request that an agent
familiar with the bombing investigation be assigned was denied, because
the FBI was not willing to authorize an agent to travel into Yemen, which
was considered a high-risk area. However, the FBI did authorize Bassem
Youssef (an Arab) to travel to Yemen. Upon information and belief, there
were no FBI agents of Arabic national origin working the East African on-
scene investigation. There was no legitimate business justification for
permitting Bassem Youssef (an American citizen and an FBI agent) to

103
. After leaving the FBI Watson joined the anti-Islamist consulting firm of !!*, Allen, Hamilton. This company received a
government contract to create a searchable ³terrorist´ database containing hundreds of petabits of information on the lives of
Islamists and their support network called The Total Information Awareness Support database. After complaints from ³civil liberties´
types such as CAIR, the U.S. Government de-privatized this data mining operation. This type of tracking has made it difficult for
Brothers to function in the West but not in countries such as Afghanistan where the literacy rate is 20%.
 travel to Yemen, while refusing to authorize another agent to travel to that
country. Because of this discriminatory action, the source was never
properly debriefed and the value of the information was never adequately
determined.

Two months before 9/11, a   entered one of the FBI Field offices
alleging to have significant information regarding Usama bin Laden. The
Field Office requested that Youssef debrief the  . This was based on
Youssef¶s strong reputation in these matters and fluency in Arabic. When
the Field Office advised the Counterterrorism Section that Youssef would
be debriefing the walk-in, the Usama Bin Laden Unit instructed the Field
Office not to utilize Mr. Youssef¶s his services. The failure to utilize Mr.
Youssef¶s services in this matter was discriminatory and humiliating to
Youssef. It also was pretextual and could not be justified under any
circumstances given the national security needs of the United States. The
pretextual nature of this incident is magnified by the fact that the Usama
Bin Laden Unit did not have a substitute Agent qualified or capable of
conducting that debriefing. Consequently, the   stopped cooperating
with the FBI and   of the Field Office. Whatever information this
  had, was lost.104

FBI SAC Pasquale D¶Amuro defended the usefulness of DocEx.

Whereas the Counter Terrorism Division did not engage in systematic

document exploitation prior to 9/11, after 9/11 the FBI recognized that
there was a vital need for the CTD to analyze data obtained from
overseas. Because its mission involved identifying and analyzing
information seized in Afghanistan, and determining whether it related to
the threat of terrorist attacks against the United States, the DocEx project
was considered a critical part of the 9/11 Investigation. Therefore, even
though the memorandum stated that plaintiff was being transferred from
the Counterintelligence Division to ITOS within CTD, the FBI managers
responsible for effectuating the transfer never intended that plaintiff would
be assigned to ITOS. Rather, the FBI intended that plaintiff would continue
to perform the duties he had been performing since being assigned to
DocEx in March 2002.

Agent Kinnally agreed,

The documents seized contained highly valuable intelligence information

and, as a result, weekly reports were sent to the Director based on
intelligence gleaned by DocEx.´ The Government summed up its case,
³Without any evidence, plaintiff¶s claim is reduced to nothing more than the

would have somehow been improved if he had been assigned to and
working in ITOS rather than DocEx. If plaintiff truly believed that being in
DocEx ³mired´ him in ³professional purgatory,´ and that working in ITOS

interests to apply for the 28 positions advertised in ITOS during the period
from January 2002 to November 2005.

A 48-year-old Egyptian-born captain with the New York City Department of

Correction assigned to work with the Police Department's Intelligence Division since
1998 who formed the Cyber Unit there in 2002 got fed up with his associate, Bruce
Tefft. Bruce Tefft was a founding member of the CIA's Counter Terrorism Center in
1985. Dr. Tefft has been certified as an expert witness on terrorism issues for the U.S.
District Court in Washington, D.C. and has testified in 8 cases. Since 9/11 he has
served as the New York Police Department's Counter-Terrorism and Intelligence
advisor. Dr. Tefft runs an international open source (OSINT) collection network which
reviews more than 1,000 articles and messages per day from law enforcement,
intelligence, military, academic and media sources and disseminates approximately
10% of these to 4,000 clients with appropriate commentary.

Between 2002 and December 2005, Tefft sent the Muslim traitor hundreds of
anti-Muslim and anti-Arab email briefings. Tefft sent emails stating:

What happens when a Muslim must choose between the Qur¶an (God's
word) and loyalty to America? If he's a good Muslim he can't be a good
American...Without Islam, there wouldn't be any Islamic Terror...Radical
Islam? There is no such thing ... Just Islam...Of course poverty is not the
cause of terrorism ... the cause of Islamic terrorism is Islam...This is not a
war against terrorism... it is against Islam and we are not
winning...Someone would have to be blind, stupid, or ignorant to think
Islam is a religion (as opposed to a fascist political ideology)...Muslims in
sensitive positions«some people are too dumb to learn...Once people
reject the death cult of the Qur¶an, that will be the end of Islam...Islam
claims the respect or disrespect it has. What is respectable about
Islam?...We will lose this war if we help the Muslims against ourselves!...
[N]o evidence at all is offered that Islam is either a religion (as opposed to
being a fascist political ideology) nor that it merits, as a death cult, any
respect whatsoever...Like anything, the Qur¶an will be accorded the
respect it merits. Which is zip...Burning the hate-filled Qur¶an should be
viewed as a public service at the least.

Tefft forwarded the Arab turncoat these articles, "El Baradei Confirmed Seeking
Third Term at IAEA," and he commented that it was the: height of foolishness to have a
Muslim monitoring Islamic nuclear weapons developments." An article entitled, "Al-
Qaeda wants to repeat 9/11 in Israel," and he commented: "Makes one wonder how
many Muslim pilots the US National Guard, Reserves, and/or US Air Force have flying
aircraft around US Cities." An article entitled

Is the Arabic language 'perfect' or 'backwards'?" and stated, "The

language may not be backwards but the people speaking it are." An article
entitled "Text pulled after uproar over Islam," and he commented: "Good,
it's a start. Islam must be deleglitimized as a 'religion' and taught for what
it is: a political ideology with religious trappings." An article entitled, "Ten
Most Harmful Books of the 19" and 20" Centuries," and he commented:
"They left out the Koran."105

This lawsuit gives you some idea of the way the intelligence community¶s
counter-terrorist specialists think. These lawsuits are just the beginning. We will use the
anti-discrimination laws to force the FBI to hire and promote many Muslims. And with
the help of Allah, one of these Muslims will be an al-Qaeda mole.



 

  

The families of the 

 killed in the Trade Center Attack filed a more than $1
trillion lawsuit against a long list of Middle Eastern governments, Saudi princes, Saudi
banks, and charities that they will squeeze not a penny out of. The suit alleges Saudi
officials agreed in 1998 with Usama bin Laden to avoid seeking extradition of al-Qaeda
officials or closure of training camps in exchange for bin Laden¶s promise not to
undermine the Saudi government. This is why for many years al-Qaeda has heeded the
words of Usama bin Laden and not attacked the royal family: ³Moreover it is important
not to get distracted by (fights with) their tails and agents (i.e. Arab regimes) that is
exactly what the enemies of Jihad desire in order to disperse our efforts. Our goal is
clear and our guidelines of our policy are well known for we don¶t adopt any action that
doesn¶t contribute in the right direction against the Crusader Jewish Alliance.´ The suit
also claimed a brother of King Fahd has donated millions to charities linked to al-
Qaeda.106 The Saudis have filed numerous lawsuits in claimant friendly London,
including a counter suit against the survivors of Holy Tuesday, and the publications that
printed the names contained in the Golden Chain Al-Qaeda Contributor List. The
newspapers being sued are the  V , the   and the

Woolsey said his testimony referred to a ³Mr. Hafous,´ not Mahfouz. ³I don¶t know what
to say other than that there was some confusion, but I never meant to refer to Khalid bin
Mahfouz¶s sister.´109 This Woolsey is a fool. The connection between the bin Laden
family and the bin Mahfouz¶s can be found through an examination of the owners of
Hybridon Incorporated, not in marriage records. Yahia M.A. Bin Laden was a
shareholder as was Abdulrahman Bin Mahfouz as of April 2001.110 Their names failed to
appear on Hybridon¶s latest SEC statement.111 The Carter Ruck law firm that is handling
the Mahfouz lawsuit has also filed a lawsuit on behalf of Yassin al-Kadi against a small
African Newsletter that reported he was a Special Designated Global Terrorist. On
August 9, 2004 the UK High Court awarded Sheikh Khaled Bin Mahfouz £10,000
damages in the Brisard defamation case. The defendants were also ordered to pay
interim costs of £30,000.

During litigation that followed the 1991 collapse of the Bank of Credit and
Commerce International (BCCI) Saudi Sheik Khalid bin Mahfouz, a former lead financial
advisor to the Saudi royal family, was implicated in the BCCI money-laundering scandal
and eventually paid $225 million to escape possible U.S. charges.112 Sheik Mahfouz¶s
BCCI branches in Pakistan had been used by the ISI to funnel money to the v
 in
Afghanistan and had been used to assist Pakistan in its efforts to obtain triggers for
nuclear weapons.113 General Kamal Adham, the former head of the Saudi intelligence
agency was involved with BCCI. Plato Chaceris, who represented CIA Agent Aldrich
Ames, FBI Agent Robert Hanssen and DIA Agent Ana Belen Montes, all members of
the American intelligence community, represented General Kamal Adham.114 In 1999
the Saudis pretended that Khalid bin Mahfouz was placed under house arrest after
suddenly discovering that the bank he once controlled, the National Commercial Bank
of Saudi Arabia, had funneled millions to the Al Muwafaq Blessed Relief Foundation.
The members of the governing Council and the trustees of the assets of Al Muwafaq
Foundation in Jersey, Channel Islands as of 1995 were Yassin al-Kadi, Talal Badkook,
Rayeis Bin Mahfooz, and Abdurahman Bin Mahfooz, the sons of Sheik Khalid bin
Mahfouz.115 The British press reported that the Saudi government has now confined bin
Mahfouz in a hospital in the mountain resort of Taif, but this is more nonsense to
placate the Americans.

Khalid bin Mahfouz¶s chief legal advisor, Cherif Sedky, an American lawyer who
resides in Saudi Arabia, said Mahfouz¶s has no sister married to Bin Laden. Sedky is an
American citizen and graduate of Stanford University and Georgetown Law School. In
1983 Sedky was on the side of the Sunnis when a group of Shiite¶s attempted to take
over the Islamic Center Mosque, in Washington, D.C.116 Sedky was a senior partner at
the Kirkpatrick and Lockhart law firm before joining the bin Mahfouz family as their chief
legal adviser in 1994. Abdulrahman bin Mahfouz and Sultan bin Mahfouz, (another of
Khalid bin Mahfouz¶s sons), along with Sedky, are Directors of the Nimir Group

United States government has alleged Abdurahman Alamoudi received a large amount
of money from his brothers in Saudi Arabia via the Rajhi Banking and Investment
Corporation.120 Abdurahman Alamoudi maintains a residence in Saudi Arabia and
requested that Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al-Saoud (also spelled Saud), Crown
Prince and Deputy Prime Minister, give his Brothers Saudi citizenship.121

The SAAR Foundation was a top priority for Operation Green Quest. According
to the search warrants, officials wished to legally steal, ³Any and all information

and any other individual or entity designated as terrorist by the President of the United

Assistant to the President of the SAAR Foundation.123 The United States government
has alleged the Abdurahman Alamoudi received a large amount of money from
Mahfouz¶s National Commercial Bank of Jeddah.124 Bin Laden¶s satellite phone provider
Tarik Hamdi was an employee of the Saudi Arabian International Institute for Islamic
Thought that was raided by the FBI as part of the SAAR nexus. The Republican
National Committee claimed SAAR is also linked to Khalid bin Mahfouz and that
Mahfouz is known by French intelligence as a backer of Usama bin Laden as he
endowed the Muwafaq Foundation.125 The namesakes of the SAAR Foundation - the Al
Rajhi Banking Investment Corporation, has filed suit in London against the  
 that reported that the Rajhi family appeared on the Golden Chain list of Global
Jihadi financial backers.






In an affidavit126 to show probable cause for the issuance of a search warrant

Cherif Sedky is listed as a director of numerous Safa Group (the successor to SAAR)
companies127 including the Humana Charitable Trust. From 1997 through 2000, SAAR
contributed the majority of its assets ($21.1 million) to Humana Charitable Trust but did
not disclose the relationship between the SAAR and Humana. The American Muslim
Association of North America Limited set up Humana on November 12, 1997. Sedky
was a director of the American Muslim Association of North America. The Mahfouz
family was questioned about these all of these allegations:

Q. Is there a connection between Hybridon Inc. and the Khalid Bin

Mahfouz family?

. At one time, Khalid Bin Mahfouz's elder son, Abdulrahman Bin

Mahfouz, was an investor in the company. He sold his shareholding in
1997.

Q. Is there a connection between the SAAR Foundation and the Khalid

Bin Mahfouz family?

. The Khalid Bin Mahfouz family has never had anything to do with
SAAR and has never made any contribution to that foundation.

Q. Is any member of the Khalid Bin Mahfouz family on any U.S.

government list? Is Khalid Bin Mahfouz being accused of any wrongdoing
by the U.S. Government? Is any U.S. government agency investigating
the Khalid Bin Mahfouz family?

Q. Has the family been asked by any U.S. Government agency to discuss
the Muwafaq Foundation or any other charitable activities?

. No.

Q. What is the connection between Khalid Bin Mahfouz and the Blessed
Relief charity?

. The Blessed Relief charity or Muwafaq Foundation was established to

relieve disease, hunger and ignorance and for other humanitarian
purposes. Khalid Bin Mahfouz was the principal donor to the foundation at
its inception in 1991 but was not involved in the running of the charity. The
Foundation was wound up between 1996 and 1998.

Q. How does the family respond to the United States Treasury

Department's labeling of the Muwafaq Foundation as an Al-Qaeda front?

. The label is demonstrably false. Furthermore, in undertaking many of

its activities, the charity worked with UNICEF, the World Food Program,
Save the Children and several other humanitarian organizations.

Q. What role did Abdulrahman Bin Mahfouz play in the Muwafaq

Foundation?

. Abdulrahman Bin Mahfouz was named as one of six directors of the

Foundation but had no involvement in the management or review of its
activities.

Q. Why has the family hired a law firm to investigate the Foundation?

. The Bin Mahfouz family believes that reviewing the books and records
of a charity that they supported is the right thing to do, when serious
allegations of illicit activities have been made. A highly reputable American
law firm has been retained to assist them in this effort; any responsible
charity would do the same thing.








 

 

 



 
 For many years a faction of the American State Department was
of the opinion that America¶s interest lay with the oil-rich Arab nations
and not with Israel. It was only natural for the Wahabists to wish to
encourage and subsidize this tendency. One such Arabist institution is
the Middle East Policy Council. None of the Directors of the Middle East
Policy Council are Jews except for Yankel Ginzburg, an artist who has
done work for the holocaust museum, who serves as their token Jew,
least they be accused of being against Jews rather than against the Zionist entity. The
conservatives at the Middle East Policy Council publish the work of many Jews who
support what they believe will be peace in Arabia, the ³Peace Now´ leftist degenerates,
who, having strayed from their so-called religion, have replaced it with godless
communism. The Middle East Policy Council publishes the work of Israel Shahak, who
died on July 2, 2001, an originator of the ³Peace Now´ school of thought. Shahak was a
survivor of the Warsaw ghetto and the Bergen Belsen extermination facility. The Nazis
must have foreseen even back then that Shahak would be a greater threat to the Jewish
people alive than dead! Shahak emigrated to the Zionist entity and became a professor
of chemistry at Hebrew University in Occupied Jerusalem. Shahak had this to say in the
Middle East Policy Council journal,    V  : ³I am a pupil of a great man
called Professor Yeshayahu Liebovitz. He predicted that because of the conquests and
the desire for domination, more and more Jews will become soldiers and then more and
more of the soldiers will become operatives of the secret police, and at the end of this
process is a society in which the Jews will only be conquerors, secret agents and
soldiers. Slaves will do the rest [of the work]. The immediate analogy, which a lot of
people are making in Israel, is Germany. Not only the Germany of Hitler and the Nazis,
but even the former German Empire that wanted to dominate all of Europe.´128

Professor Shahak was a deranged Jew.129 If he thought the Zionist entity was
illegitimate, what was he doing there? Why didn¶t he go back to Poland instead of being
a colonizer? Nazis quote his works, such as Mathew Hale head of the Christian Identity
Church of the Creator130 and Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke.131 When Shahak died
Nazi Ernst Zundel132 wrote this about him: ³Israel Shahak was quietly heroic. Decent

. David Duke plead guilty to stealing contributions made to him by enemies of the Zionist Occupation Government and was sent to
Federal prison and Hale was convicted of threatening a federal judge who Hale described as a white woman married to a Jew with
three mixed-race grandchildren (this was false). Thanks to the Jews, Matt Hale will never see the outside again but Duke is still free.
132. Zundel, who sent the Elders of Islam a pamphlet warning them that the American Jews were trying to incite a war against the
people of the last Prophet, is an effective holocaust-denial propagandist. Zundel was convicted on February 26, 1985, of publishing
false news about the holocaust. He was sentenced to fifteen months in jail, and three years probation, during which time he was
prohibited from publishing on the subject. He appealed the conviction and was given a new trial. Zundel¶s defense witnesses
included David Irving and Robert Faurisson. In early 2000, David Irving sued    and Jewess Deborah Lipstadt, whose
book    
‘ Irving claimed was central to allegations that he was a neo-Nazi and involved with extremist fascist
groups. On April 11, 2000, the British High Court announced its verdict: Lipstadt did not libel Irving when she described him as ³one
of the most dangerous spokespersons for holocaust denial.´ Irving was forced to pay the costs of the trial (estimated to be £2 million
pounds), which will effectively bankrupt him.´ Notwithstanding the sympathetic testimony of these men, on November 13, 1988,
Zundel was convicted and sentenced to a nine-month jail term. Deportation hearings were commenced by the Canadian authorities
but fortunately on August 27, 1992, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down as unconstitutional the law banning the spread of
false news. The Canadian Jews pressured the government not grant him citizenship and in February 2001, Zundel left Canada for
people owe him a debt of gratitude. He was a voice of reason and decency in a country
where the people of the lie live and hold sway - and, sadly, also govern. We will sorely
miss him and his honesty.´ Alexander Cockburn,133 Christopher Hitchens134 and Noam
Chomsky135 joined Zundel in eulogizing Shahak, who had uncovered or invented
customs and Talmudic passages that would incite the Christians against not only the
Zionist entity but also against Jews in general. Shahak wrote that dishonoring Christian
religious symbols was an old religious duty in Judaism: ³Spitting on the cross, and
especially on the Crucifix, and spitting when a Jew passes a church, has been
obligatory from around AD 200 for pious Jews.´ The Institute for Historical Review
reprinted this passage136 and Amhed Mousawe, a leading intellectual of the Hizb¶allah
asserted that Jews ceremonially spit on the cross. Asked whether Islam was similar to
Judaism, Amhed Mousawe responded, ³Ah, but we respect Jesus Christ (peace and the
blessings of God be upon him). The Jews have the practice of spitting on the cross.´137
Shahak wrote, ³Both before and after a meal a pious Jew ritually washes his hands«On
one of these two occasions he is worshipping God«but on the other he is worshipping
Satan.´138


 




Men like Frank C. Carlucci, the former United States Secretary of Defense, and a
Director of the Middle East Policy Council sponsored Shahak.139 Carlucci is also
chairman of the Carlyle Group, a Washington-based investment firm that buyouts
defense companies and negotiates global arms deals for Saudi Arabia and the Gulf
states. Carlyle¶s senior counsel is former secretary of state James Baker, and George
Bush the Elder is paid to consult on its behalf. Carlyle and Bush profit from $4 billion a
year that the Saudis spend on U.S.-manufactured defense systems.140 Carlyle is the

unquestionable, direct the Middle East Policy Council.

Dr. Fuad A. Rihani, Director, Research and Development of the Saudi Bin Laden

Council¶s total revenue for 2001 was $1,132,357, with some contributors [whose names

but pales in comparison with Anti-Defamation League that received $46 million dollars
in contributions that same year!

The Middle East Policy Council is headed by Ambassador Chas. W. Freeman,

Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs from 1993 to 1994, and
U. S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia during the American attacks on Iraq termed Desert

The Holy Land Foundation is a non-profit corporation organized in 1989. It was

originally incorporated under the name Occupied Land Fund, and changed its corporate
name to Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development on September 16, 1991. It
took America ten years to come to the conclusion that the Foundation was an unseen
hand of Hamas. Holy Land¶s assets were frozen by the devils of the Treasury
Department as investigators probed its ties to heroes of Hamas. In September 2001, a
federal grand jury issued subpoenas for Holy Land records144 around the same time

Elashi, a founder and former chairman of the HLF, was sentenced to more than six
years in prison after he and four brothers were convicted of violating export laws by
shipping computers to Syria and Libya. Last year, Mr. Elashi and two brothers were
convicted of helping a Hamas leader launder money.146

Akin Gump, represented the Holy Land Foundation in a federal lawsuit filed
against the charity, and another suspected Hamas fund-raising group, by Stanley and
Joyce Boim, whose son David, an Israeli soldier, was executed by Hamas in 1996.147
The United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit has upheld a lower court
ruling that a trial should be held in this matter. It ruled that donations used to further
Jihad were covered under the so-called anti-terrorism law as long as it could be shown
that the charities knew of Hamas¶s activities. Suing such a charity does not violate the
American Constitution¶s First Amendment speech protections ³so long as the plaintiffs
are able to prove that the defendants knew about the organization¶s illegal activity,
desired to help that activity succeed and engaged in some act of helping´148 wrote
Judge Ilana D. Rovner. Judge Rovner, who, as a child, fled Riga, Latvia, to escape the
growing Nazi threat, should have recused herself from this case, as she is Zionist and a
Jew!
Akin, Gump said it decided to decline a request to represent the Holy Land
Foundation in its defense of terrorism-related charges made by the U.S. Treasury
Department. Akin Gump did not need the money since the Saudi government hired
them, paying out $161,799 in the first half of 2002.149 John D. Cline of Freedman, Boyd,
Daniels, Hollander, Goldberg & Cline now represents the Holy Land Foundation. The
former Williams & Connolly150 partner defended Oliver North and Los Alamos scientist
Wen Ho Lee. At first, U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler, another Jew who is handling
this case, warned government lawyers that she would not look favorably on their
request to keep classified information concealed from public view: ³I¶ll make no secret
that the government is going to have a very heavy burden to submit information
 
[in secret, in the judge¶s chambers],´ Kessler said. ³In a case with as many serious
ramifications as this one, unless the law is crystal clear everything should be in public
and on the record.´

This was all talk. After reviewing the FBI report on the Holy Land Foundation
Judge Kessler refused Holy Land¶s request for a temporary injunction to unblock its
assets. She also dismissed most of the claims in its lawsuit against the American
Government. This Jewish judge relied on information from the Israelis:

 First, it was reasonable for Office of Foreign Assets Control to rely on
information derived from Israeli police interrogations, despite Holy Land¶s
contention about the prevalence of torture by the Israeli police«In 1997,
the Israeli government arrested Mohammad Anati, the former head of Holy
Land Foundation¶s Jerusalem office, because of his Hamas activities. The
administrative record contains an Israeli intelligence report summarizing
Anati¶s police interrogations subsequent to his arrest. The report indicates
that Anati admitted to being a Hamas activist, and stated that, although
Holy Land Foundation provided aid to the needy, some of that money was
channeled to Hamas.

Judge Kessler continued:

There is evidence in the record that Holy Land Foundation¶s

Jerusalem office supported Hamas. The Israeli government closed the
office in May 1995, because it was µused for overseeing the channeling of
funds to families of Hamas activists who had committed terrorist attacks
and for families of Hamas prisoners.¶ The Israeli Supreme Court later
upheld the closing«The September 20, 1995 report prepared by the
Israeli government is based on that government¶s analysis of documents it
recovered from Holy Land Foundation¶s Jerusalem office. The recovered
documents show funds transferred from the Holy Land Foundation to the
Islamic Relief Agency for distribution, and include the list of people
supported by those funds. The report indicates that people who were not
demonstrably connected to Hamas activists received lower payments
when compared to those with known Hamas ties. Finally, the Israeli
government¶s June 5, 1995 report indicates that µsome hundred orphans
receiving support have been checked¶ and the µfamilies of several orphans
are directly connected with Hamas.¶

Judge Kessler also relied on the statements of unnamed informants and she
ruled: ³The Holy Land Foundation contests the Office of Foreign Assets Control¶s
reliance on these statements because the Government did not provide any basis to
believe they are reliable, did not describe the basis for the informants¶ knowledge, and
did not include any versions of their statements in the unclassified administrative record.

However, courts have recognized the usefulness of information from

confidential sources when presented in combination with corroborating
 evidence151 (finding that magistrate judge properly concluded that
informants¶ credibility was sufficiently established because informants¶
statements were corroborated and they had provided reliable information
in the past). Here, there are eight corroborating and independent sources,
in addition to the corroborating evidence detailed above. Further, the FBI
indicated that the sources had been reliable in the past (admitting that one
source had been both reliable and unreliable), and provision of such
information supports the Office of Foreign Assets Control¶s consideration
of their statements.152

Judaist Nathan Lewin handled the initial part of this case for the Boims. Who are
the other members of Lewin¶s law firm? Lawyers who were close to former United
States President Richard Nixon, such as Herbert J. Miller Jr. Miller worked with the
Warren Commission that covered up the Mafia connections of the Jew Jack ³Ruby´
Rubenstein and then Miller defended Nixon during the Watergate scandal. R. Stan
Mortonson and Martin D. Minsker are members of this law firm. These lawyers now
represent the Nixon library and Nixon estate. Ironically, Jews that Nixon complained
about having an inordinate amount of influence, now manage his estate!


 

Nixon¶s true thoughts about Jews were revealed when the Oval Office tapes
became public: On February 1, 1972 Nixon met with the Christian missionary Billy
Graham and H.R. Haldeman, Nixon¶s aide. The Christian missionary had been invited to
lunch at  magazine. ³You better take your Jewish beanie!´ Haldeman said. Nixon
took the Christian missionary aside and said he had something to tell him that ³we can¶t
talk about publicly´ - Jewish influence in the media. All the big news organs are ³totally
dominated by the Jews.´ Graham agreed, adding that it is the Jews ³who are putting out
the pornographic stuff.´ ³This stranglehold has got to be broken or this country¶s going
down the drain,´ Graham declared. ³You believe that?´ Nixon asked. ³Yes, sir,´ Graham
replied. ³Oh, boy,´ replies Nixon. ³So do I. I can¶t ever say that but I believe it.´ Nixon
complained that Washington ³is full of Jews´ and that ³most Jews are disloyal. Generally
speaking you can¶t trust the bastards. They turn on you. Am I wrong or right?´
Haldeman agreed. Nixon told Haldeman that the Jews needed to be brought under
control by putting someone ³in charge who is not Jewish´ in key agencies. Nixon said
sarcastically: ³without getting into any anti-Semitism,´ then described the inordinate
influence of ³a terrible liberal Jewish clique.´ Former Treasury Secretary John Connally

our strength. They¶re untrustworthy. Look at the Justice Department, it¶s full of Jews´
said Nixon. ³Any place of power,´ Connally agreed: ³Security and Exchance
Commission used to be -- all of them, those lawyers.´ ³Listen, the lawyers in
government are damn Jews,´ Nixon said. Both agreed Nixon should reduce the Jewish
influence in a second term. Nixon told Connally he wanted no more than 2% of the
government¶s political appointees to be Jewish, in proportion to the population. He later
said 10% would be acceptable, ³but certainly not 30% or 40%.´



Billy Graham¶s son is nothing like him: After calling Islam ³a very evil and wicked
religion,´ the evangelist Franklin Graham said that Muslims had not sufficiently
apologized for the September 11th Raids and that al-Qaeda should help compensate
civilian casualties¶ families.153 Franklin Graham¶s relief operation, Samaritan¶s Purse,
began to operate in Iraq shortly after the Americans occupied it. The bigoted Reverend
Jerry Falwell said, ³I think Muhammad was a terrorist.´ After his remarks set off Hindu-
Muslim clashes in India that left at least nine people dead he apologized for this remark.
Speaking on his Christian Broadcasting Network news program the Evangelist Pat
Robertson accused Jews of being blind to the threat posed by Muslims:

If I say something that Islam is an erroneous religion, the Anti-Defamation

League criticizes me. When are you guys going to open your eyes and
see whom your enemy is? Those people want to destroy Jews. Somehow
I wish the Jews in America would wake up, open their eyes and read what
is being said about them. This is worse than the Nazis. Adolf Hitler was
bad, but what the Muslims want to do to the Jews is worse.154

It certainly sounds like Pat Robertson has the interests of Israel and the Jews at
heart with one catch: Fundamental evangelicals, who interpret the Bible literally, believe
that the Jews return to Israel and the restoration of the temple will precede the Second
Coming of Christ, at which point 144,000 Jews will be saved after the rapture. These
Jews from the 12 tribes will accept Jesus as the Messiah and enter into the Millennium
to repopulate the earth. The 12 apostles will rule over these 12 tribes during this time.
Jesus, speaking to His disciples, said to them, ³Truly I say to you, that you who have
followed Me, in the regeneration [the Millennium] when the Son of Man will sit on His
glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of
Israel.´155 There are 13 million Jews in the world today. The Evangelical Christians are
even more ambitious than Islamists are in their desire to see the Jews disappear from
the face of the earth.

 The Jews wonder why American blacks, many of who have converted to Islam,
hate them in greater proportion to whites? Courtney A. Evans is a member of Lewin¶s
Jewish special interest law firm. When United States Attorney General Robert Kennedy
authorized Electronic Surveillance against Martin Luther King Jr. on October 10, 1963
the document was provided by FBI liaison Courtney A. Evans. The attorney general¶s
main concern, detailed in the minutes of his meeting with Evans, seems to have been
not that the bugging and tapping of King was wrong but that it might be found out. Once
Evans convinced him that this was genuinely improbable, ³the Attorney General said he
felt [the FBI] should go ahead with the technical coverage of King on a trial basis, and to
continue if productive results were forthcoming.´156

The Boims cannot bring their Zionist thug son back ± they only wish to get rich
from his death by using America¶s Jew-infested legal system to their own ends!
Chairman Arafat pretended to punish the mujahedeen who carried out this attack, in
order to fool those in the Zionist entity naïve enough to believe he wished peace.
Shooter Imad Hinawi was given a ten-minute trial and sentenced to ten years in prison.
In February 1997 he was granted leave for the Id al-Fitr holiday, and was told not to
return to jail. Under Zionist and Crusader pressure, the Palestinian Authority police re-
arrested Hinawi in February 1998 and sentenced him to 10 years hard labor, but in
November 1998 Hinawi was again released and is now preparing to strike again. The
other Hamas member who put an end to Boim¶s life, Khalil Sharif, blew himself up in last

Muhammed Abdul Hamid Khalil Salah is also another target of the Boims. In
June 1998, the Americans filed a civil assets-forfeiture suit against Muhammed Salah.
Such actions are frequently used to seize the money and property of drug dealers. In
the Muhammed Salah case, the U.S. Attorney¶s Office went after personal property and
accounts in seven banks, with a total estimated value of $1.5 million.158 A judgment for
$156 million was issued against the Holy Land Foundation, and Qur¶anic Literacy
Institute and some of other of our front groups but I assure you the Boims will never be
allowed to profit from their son¶s death.

Americans For Middle East Understanding is a Wahhabist-sponsored non-profit

organization that is helpful in convincing the Christian clergy that Islamists are no threat
to their existence. Saudi Aramco - the largest supplier of crude oil and natural gas
liquids in the world founded this organization. Between 1968 and 1982 Aramco
contributed close to a million dollars to Americans For Middle East Understanding but in
2001contributed only $20,000. The Arab Information Center has made contributions to

Americans For Middle East Understanding, as has the Muslim World League.159
Americans For Middle East Understanding consists of businessmen with close ties to
Saudi Arabia such as Americans For Middle East Understanding President Jack B.
Sunderland, the CEO of the American Independent Oil Company, which won the
Neutral Zone concession from Kuwait in 1948 and Richard Hobson, Jr., Vice President,
Olayan America, a multi-national enterprise with a home market of Saudi Arabia and a
foundation that helped fund the Edward Said chair at Columbia University.160 Americans
For Middle East Understanding¶s Vice President, Robert L. Norberg, was director of the
Saudi Aramco Services Company office in Washington, D.C.
Americans For Middle East Understanding Director Dr. John F.
Mahoney spent more than a year with Aramco in Dhahran, Saudi
Arabia, where he taught management courses and ³got to know a
lot of Saudis and Palestinians.´161 Americans For Middle East
Understanding Director Talcott W. Seelye is the former U.S.
Ambassador to Tunisia and Syria. Seelye was known as an
Arabist at the State Department.162 Americans For Middle East Understanding Director
Edward L. Peck served as an Embassy Officer in Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Egypt,
and Chief of Mission in Iraq under the Carter Administration. At the State Department,
he served as Deputy Director of Covert Intelligence Programs, Director in the office of
Egyptian Affairs, and Special Assistant to the Under Secretary for Political Affairs. At the
Pentagon, he worked as the Liaison Officer to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and was a Fellow
at the Institute of Higher Defense Studies. At the White House, he served as Deputy
Director of Vice President Bush¶s Cabinet Task Force on Combating Terrorism.163

The Learned Elders of Islam wish that America had more ³terrorism´ experts like
Peck. This is what Peck said about the September 11th Raids:

So we have come out with 21 pages of proof that Usama bin Laden was
involved. I have read that material. That¶s allegations. That¶s not proof. It¶s
an entirely different thing. Proof of what it means to us. So, yes, he¶s not a
nice guy, Saddam Hussein. But I think that the costs to our nation and its
interests of taking him out are probably vastly exceeding anything we
would gain by doing it.164 He would like to develop nuclear weapons, but
you cannot hide a nuclear weapons development program. And if you are
going to build nuclear weapons, the only time they become dangerous is
when you have a delivery system, and you can¶t hide that either. The
overflights of Iraq are illegal. There is no justification in any form for doing
that. We do it because we can, period. And from the overflights, whenever
we feel like it, we drop bombs on a totally prostrate defenseless nation of

 Iraq. Why don¶t we like the Iraqis? It is because Saddam Hussein has fired
missiles into Israel. Why I feel less than safe is because what we have
been doing to the Iraqi people for the last 11 years makes an awful lot of
people angry at us, angry enough to try to find some way to make us sorry
we are doing it.

Peck considers the Jews occupiers of Palestinian land. He said the Palestinians
look at the suicide bombers as freedom fighters. ³When I was a boy, all of the people in
Europe who were fighting against the German occupiers were called freedom fighters.
In Palestine, they are called terrorists. The suicide bombers, what a horror they are. But
look at the concept embodied in American history: We had our first person executed as
a spy who said, µMy only regret is that I have but one life to give for my country.¶ Patrick
Henry said, µGive me liberty or give me death.¶ So, this is not all that unusual.´ When
Saddam Hussein was in power Peck was certain the Iraqi people would not rise up
against him: ³First, they can¶t because this is not a
   government. Marches
on the palace in Baghdad are very short and you are only around for one. Secondly,
they don¶t want to.´165 Ambassador Peck166 was correct in his assessment of Iraq.
Hussein and his Government continued to enjoy overwhelming popular Sunni support.
He received 99.96% of the vote in an October 1995 referendum on his presidency. In
2002 100% of Iraq¶s voters gave him another seven-year term as President. Bush the
Younger would never get 100% of the vote ± in fact he didn¶t even receive a majority
when he started his first term of office.

Under Saddam the list of offenses requiring a mandatory death penalty included
sabotaging the national economy, forgery, smuggling cars, spare parts, material, heavy
equipment, and machinery. Membership in certain political parties was punishable by
death. The mere suggestion that someone was not a supporter of the President carried
the prospect of the death penalty. Security agents decapitated numerous women and
men in front of their family members. The victim¶s heads were displayed in front of their
homes for several days. Thirty of the victims¶ names reportedly were published, which
included three doctors and one medical assistant. Prison cleansing campaigns involved
periodically killing certain inmates making Saddam¶s prisons into death camps. A 1990
decree granted immunity to men who commit ³honor crimes.´ Another 1992 decree
granted immunity from prosecution to members of the Ba¶ath Party and security forces
who killed anyone while in pursuit of army deserters. This decree was applied to prevent
trials or punishment of government officials acting in an official capacity.167 On October
20, 2002, tens of thousands of Iraqi prisoners, including deserters, were released to

Only Zionist and American spies and murderers who had not settled the blood money
owed to victims¶ families under Islamic law were exempted. Less than 100,000
prisoners were released including many criminals who are now partisans. Only 2.5% of
Iraqi¶s population was incarcerated compared to America¶s 5%. Enemies of Islam also
³disappeared´ into the hands of the secret police, never to be heard from again, perhaps
200,000. Scores of immoral women were executed under the Islamist ³return to faith´
campaign that banned drinking alcohol in public and mandated the execution of
prostitutes in public put into effect just before the American occupation.






 


The businessman and former Ambassadors of Americans For Middle East

Understanding are joined by Professors of Religious Studies, Executives in the H.R.
Presbyterian Synod of the Northeast, retired Presbyterian ministers, biblical scholars
along with C. Herbert Oliver. Oliver dates back to 1967, when a revolutionary, Black
Nationalist plan for community control, was implemented in the school district of Ocean
Hill-Brownsville, Brooklyn. Communist revolutionists such as Lynne Stewart and Black
nationalists like her husband Ralph Poynter sought to replace the District¶s
predominantly white teachers with people of color. Leslie Campbell, a black teacher,
wrote: ³The Devil can never educate us. All devils must go! The colony must begin to
build a school system free of any influence or contact with the devil¶s system.´ Another
teacher168 wrote: ³The Jew is now our exploiter.´ And so, on May 7, 1968, 18 white
educators were illegally fired, precipitating the city¶s longest-ever teachers¶ strike. The
Jewish Defense League was formed to force the blacks to retain these Jewish teachers.
C. Herbert Oliver, who was Chairman of the Ocean Hill-Brownsville School Board fought
against these Judaists. This first encounter with Judaists was the fertile ground that
helped turn Lynne Stewart and her husband Ralph Poynter against the racist Jews.

Americans for Middle East Understanding publishes a journal that correctly

defines the meaning of ³suicide bomber´ ± ³Often used by the Western media to
describe a Palestinian who detonates explosives strapped to his or her body. Such a
Palestinian does not see this as an act of suicide, which is prohibited by Islam. Rather, it
is seen as a legitimate means of defense on the part of an occupied people and, as
such, worthy of Islam¶s most exalted honor, that of shaheed. Palestinians speak of a
µmartyrdom operation¶ as opposed to µsuicide bombing.¶´169

Clergy, Defense Department high officials, Ambassadors, politicians are all

willing to help further Wahhabism, from which springs Jihad. Our triumph has been
rendered easier by the fact that in our relations with the 

 we have always worked
upon the most sensitive chords of the human mind, upon the cash account, upon the
cupidity, upon the insatiability for material needs of man; and each one of these human

The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) often works jointly with
the Council on American Islamic-Relations (CAIR): The American-Arab Anti-
Discrimination Committee and CAIR filed a lawsuit in the United States district court for
the central district of California, complaining that the INS unlawfully arrested large
numbers of people between December 16, 2002 and December 18, 2002 in Los
Angeles because they were in the United States illegally. The lawsuit sought an
immediate injunction to avoid similar detention arrests since they were illegal because
the government had not obtained the necessary arrest warrants. In July 1986, the board
unanimously elected Abdeen Jabara president of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination
Committee. Jabara closed his law office in Detroit after twenty years of practice and
moved to Washington to assume his new position. Jabara served as president of the
American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee until 1990.

American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee members are well aware of the

Islamists desire to destroy American democracy by internal means and sympathize with
it, but none-the-less the ADC claims to be a loyal patriotic, progressive, democracy-
loving organization. Nabih Ayad, counsel for the ADC, represented Mohamed Nasser
al-Ajji of Detroit when Ajji was charged with a minor offense related to Social Security
fraud. At al-Ajji¶s detention hearing in federal court the government released documents
portraying al-Ajji as a former Mujahadeen fighter with a deep hatred of America who
recently wrote to a Yemeni religious leader asking about the ethics of a suicide attack,
then pasted the fatwa on the wall of his home. ³Whoever killed himself by explosives is
a self killer and not a martyr, even if he kills the enemies as well,´ the response said.
³But if he was ignorant...he shall not be blamed for his deed.´ 170

Nabih Ayad also represented Omar Abdel-Fatah Al-Shishani, a Chechen who

grew up in Jordan, who was charged with bringing counterfeit checks totaling $12
million into the United States. The checks were made payable to Shishani¶s Indonesian
business associate, Baharuddin Masse, and drawn on the fictitious Pomona, California
branch of West America Bank. When he was arrested, Omar Abdel-Fatah Shishani
carried a paper with Arabic verses from the Qu¶ran that referred to martyrs and
apocalyptic events, FBI agents said. Nabih Ayad¶s motion to preclude prosecutors from

. According to the detention request, New York City police got a call December 17, 2002 from Fakrudin A. Mallahi, saying that his
ex-brother-in-law, al-Alajji, was a terrorist and was ³getting ready to bomb you guys.´ In a later call, Mallahi said Alajji soon would
carry out an al-Qaeda attack in Michigan. ³Mallahi went on to describe al-Alajji as a fundamentalist, who is ready to die,´ it said. Al-
Alajji, 31, had obtained a hazardous materials driver¶s license. Ayad was able to get his client released and al-Alajji returned to
Yemen. ClickOnDetroit.com December 24, 2002 ³New Details Released On Suspected Michigan Terrorist Reports: Alajji Obtained

using so-called terror related terms during Shishani¶s trial was granted by a federal
judge. The excluded phrases and terms are: FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, al-Qaeda,
all Qur¶anic verses, terrorism, terrorist groups, terrorism Watch List, Afghanistan,
Usama bin Laden, training camps, Muslim, Jordanian Intelligence Service, ? r 

, Fatah and Jihad.

³While Omar Abdel-Fatah Shishani claimed to have no sympathy for terrorism,

he believed that this business associate, Baharuddin Masse may belong to al-Qaeda,
as he has made pro al-Qaeda statements and named his daughter   ´ Assistant
U.S. Attorney Eric Straus wrote.171 Shishani also told federal authorities he could assist
their investigation, prosecutors said. ³In response to questions relating to terrorism,
Shishani stated words to the effect: If you want to know about terrorism, I can help you
with that.´ Nabih Ayad said his client never made this statement, and family members in
Jordan said Shishani was simply a wealthy computer salesman. A 10-year veteran of
the Secret Service was suspended for six months and forfeited more than $87,400 in
salary for scrawling ³Islam is Evil´ and ³Christ is King´ on a Muslim prayer calendar
while searching Shishani¶s home.172

Omar Abdel-Fatah Shishani would later try to discredit the testimony of Youssef
Hmimssa (who testified against our Detroit sleeper cell) by claiming that Hmimssa had
told him, when they were both in federal prison, that he did not know if the Detroit
sleeper cell headed by Abdel Ilah Elmardoudi had anything to do with so-called
³terrorism´ ± ³He said, µI don¶t know; I just want to get revenge because they stole from
me. They destroyed my life.¶´173 Assistant U.S. Attorney Keith Corbett asked Shishani if
it was true that he had told other prisoners he would take revenge on the judge and the
prosecutor and that he knew the family of Usama bin Laden.

The Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) is

investigating if Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Convertino, who prosecuted the
Brothers in Detroit tried to persuade a pretrial services employee at U.S. District Court
to turn over confidential information about Omar Shishani, so Convertino could discredit
him and withheld evidence that defense lawyers could have used to attack the credibility
of the co-operator Hmimssa's trial testimony. In late 2001, Detroit drug dealer Milton
³Butchy´ Jones sent a letter to the U.S. Attorney¶s Office indicating Hmimssa had told
him that he had lied to the FBI.174 He said Hmimssa also said he helped the 9/11
hijackers obtain identification: ³He got to telling me how he lied to the FBI, how he
fooled the Secret Service agent on his case. Youssef Hmimssa get to telling me the roll
he played with the terrorists of September 11, 2001 and how he made ID and
documents for them to get around any where in the world.´ Judge Rosen has ordered

Americans, in the throes of their misguided patriotism, are weary of hiring Arab-
Americans, even those with citizenship or green cards. Anti-discrimination laws of the
United States will be evoked should any employer¶s waiver in hiring those of Middle
Eastern descent, as will laws against racial profiling. We have already had a certain
degree of success in this area. When Amad Elden Abdou, whose name appeared on
the Rahman Unindicted Co-Conspirator List, was fired from his job at Whole Foods of
Soho in November 1998 he and several other employees went to the Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission to complain. Abdou said he ³was specifically told
never to pray over there even on my break time.´ He did not get his job back because
the store closed, however, he did receive $38,000 in compensation.176 This is where the
American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee will play an important role in our plan to
destroy Judeao-Christian civilization. The ADC has a legal department that will handle
our racial profiling or anti-discrimination cases for free. Many greedy employers would
risk a security breach rather than fight a prolonged, expensive legal battle in the courts;
especially if they have to hire a greedy Jewish lawyer who will cause them to loose even
if they win!

   





Sister Lynne Stewart has received considerable support from the National
Lawyer¶s Guild as have many Islamists trapped in Gitmo. We regard the National
Lawyer¶s Guild as a Communist Front group. Look at the Guild¶s history: In 1939 the
Guild refused to adopt a resolution condemning the Hitler-Stalin pact.177 Guild members
lobbied against the Smith Act that outlawed organizations like the Communist Party
U.S.A., which were presumed to be ³conspiring to advocate and overthrow the U.S.
government by force and violence.´ As a result of this pro-Communist activity, the
House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) cited the Guild as a Communist-front
organization. The Guild testified against Truman's loyalty oath program and Guild
members were subpoenaed to testify before HUAC, having been named by informant
Whittaker Chambers as members of the Communist Party. HUAC issued a publication
entitled 
  !  
 
     designed to show a relationship
between the two. Guild members led the defense in espionage trials of Ethel & Julius
Rosenberg and Morton Sobell.

Now the Guild is defending the defenders of the avowed killers of communists,
the Islamists although they cannot admit this to themselves and when Stewart was

privilege that it will have.´ Later Stewart said: ³I have gotten outstanding support, not
only from the   radical or leftist lawyers of the National Lawyers Guild and other
organizations but from the other organizations, from the everyday mainstream
lawyers.´178 Why have the leftists and communists of America provided al-Qaeda with
much help and support knowing that our avowed aim is to eradicate all communists and
their sympathizers? They have no program of their own, no faith in Allah, and have
become simply a hate America cult. They also feel that the enemy of my enemy is my
friend. They are deluded and self-destructive and will be destroyed just as the leftist so-
called Mujahedeen (MKO) was destroyed in Iran.

Our  
 lies in force. The word  
 is an abstract thought and it is proved by
nothing. The word means no more than: ³Give me what I want in order that thereby I
may have a proof that I am stronger than you.´ Our countersign is force. Only force
conquers in political affairs. Violence must be the principle, and cunning and make-
believe the weapons against governments which do not want to lay down their crowns
at the feet of agents of Islam. This evil is the one and only means to attain the end, the
good. Therefore al-Qaeda must not stop at developing nuclear weapons that should
serve towards the attainment of our end.

In politics one must know how to prevent the seizure of property without
hesitation. Israel¶s might lies in its military. Israel was fifth place in the world arms export
league in 2002 with record sales of $4.18 billion, 70% up on 2001. We have learned
time and time again that the American military cannot be defeated by conventional
means as our lands have been overrun in Afghanistan and Iraq. We have also learned
that the weapons America most fears are nuclear and Bush the Younger has vowed he
will not allow them to ³proliferate´ and fall into Islamist hands. With nuclear weapons,
which were invented over fifty years ago, America¶s tanks, infantry, cavalry, armed
personnel carriers, can be destroyed and the playing field leveled. Our might will be
consummated only after we have acquired nuclear chemical and biological weapons
and use them successfully against the West, which is now infinitely more militarily
powerful than the Islamic Republics.





  





Khalid Shaikh Mohammed lied about our efforts to manufacture an atomic bomb.
    reported that Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, the father of the Pakistan¶s
Islamic atomic bomb, met with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed but Khalid Shaikh Mohammed
denied this when questioned by the Americans.

There were many clues that a Muslim bomb was in the making.
In 1998 Iftikhar Chaudhary Khan, a 29-year-old who was a nuclear
scientist offered details of Pakistan's nuclear program to the CIA,

178. San Francisco Bay View, California- November 7, 2002.

including information on    
     
  . Khan said he had
signed a letter of protest along with four other scientists after which he was forced to go
into hiding.179 He was brought to America via Canada and granted asylum. There was a
campaign by the Pakistani Government to discredit him. First it said Iftikhar Kahn was a
disgruntled physics graduate who refused to return from a study trip abroad and a junior
technician who was fired. Then he was demoted to an accountant at a ceramic tile firm.
Pakistani police jailed then raped his wife.180 Iftikhar Khan held a press conference and
produced a Pakistani passport with a stamp that signified a high-security clearance, and
a photocopy of his ID card from the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission. Iftikhar
Chaudhary Khan said he had attended a meeting with A.Q. Khan.

It is well known that Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan, the father of Pakistan¶s atomic
bomb, helped Iran for years. The defector Ali Akbar Omid Mehr, who was in charge of
Pakistani affairs at Iran's Foreign Ministry in 1989 and 1990, came across Khan as an
ally of Tehran: ³I saw that Mr. A. Q. Khan had been given a villa near the Caspian Sea
for his help to Iran.´ In the mid 1980's Dr. Khan ordered twice the number of parts the
Pakistani nuclear program needed, and then sold the excess to Iran.181 Robert B.
Oakley said that A.Q. Khan¶s associate General Mirza Aslam told him in the spring of
1991 that he was discussing nuclear and conventional military co-operation with Iran's
Revolutionary Guards.182

A. Q. Khan Research Laboratories offered technology for sale that could be used
in nuclear plants and even distributed a pamphlet with a Rawalpindi address, P.O. Box
502, and a picture of Dr. Khan.183 Khan held symposiums on the design of centrifuges
and other literature about A.Q. Khan Labs contained broad hints that nuclear technology
was available for a price.184 If it were feasible A.Q. Khan would have sold centrifuges on

associates were detained, including scientist Mansoor Ahmed, who is in charge of the
KRL cricket stadium.

Jamaat-e-Islami Emir Qazi Hussain Ahmad held a rally in support of these

scientists during which he asked, ³What would be a higher security risk than this that the
nuclear scientists who have transformed the country into nuclear power are being
dubbed as anti state elements? Government should set free them or the MMA (a
coalition of Islamist groups) will give the call for country-wide movement against the
rulers leading to siege of Islamabad.´ Even before the Soviet Union invaded
Afghanistan, Ahmed was in close contact with Afghan mujahideen and had personal
terms with top Afghan leaders. He played a pivotal role in introducing Afghan Jihad to
foreign world and gaining countrywide favor for the movement.186 In 1998 Iftikhar
Chaudhary Khan¶s allegations, were, praise Allah, dismissed by the media however in
2004 the United Nations nuclear agency said Iranian officials disclosed that Pakistanis
were among middlemen who the Iranians said had aided Iran in critical aspects of its
nuclear weapons program.187

In January 2004 Asher Karni, an Israeli who lives in South Africa, was arrested
for having attempted to export triggered spark gaps to Pakistan. These devices can be
used to detonate an atomic device. The switches were to be shipped to an established
electronics company, Pakland PME Corporation, with forty years experience ³selling
electronic test equipment´ while working with Alfred Hempel, a German industrialist and
a former Nazi.188 A judge ordered Karni released on $75,000 bail if he stayed in the
custody of a rabbi. Had Karni been Muslim rather than Jewish, no bail would have been
set for him. The Justice Department, however, objected to his release and was granted
another bail hearing. Asher Karni was sentenced August 4, 2005 to a mere three years
in federal prison.

In January 2004 Musharraf admitted that scientists from his country sold nuclear
designs to other nations but claimed they did it for personal financial gain and that his
government was unaware of these sales.189 Retired General Mirza Aslam Beg, who
headed the Pakistani Army from 1988 to 1991 and who the family of former Pakistani
Prime Minister Zia ul-Haq believes was behind the plane crash that killed that killed their
father, told a press conference that these scientists should go unpunished since Israel

and Indian scientists had nuclear arsenals, "It's the Jewish lobby, a particular lobby,
which tries to portray me [as an Islamist].´190 Dr. Khan was suspended as an advisor to
Pakistan¶s prime minister after he admitted transferring nuclear weapons-related
designs, drawings and components to Iran between 1989 and 1991. He was detained
and told that if he left Pakistan the CIA or the Mossad might kidnap him and that his
daughter living in London was also in danger.191 Khan confessed then received a
pardon from Musharraf and was allowed to keep the money he had received for
transferring the technology.192 A.Q. Kahn has been under house arrest since 2004.

Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan also helped Iraq in its quest to develop nuclear weapons.
Dr. Khan¶s name appeared in a letter offering to manufacture a nuclear weapon for
Saddam Hussein.193 Saddam Hussein told aides after the Gulf War that his greatest
mistake was to invade Kuwait before he had a nuclear weapon, because then the
United States would never have dared to oppose him. In August 1990 Saddam ordered
a crash program to build one nuclear weapon that failed only because the Iraqis could
not enrich enough uranium in time. Saddam¶s scientists planned to dig a shaft vertically
and then horizontally to create a chamber to test a device. He surveyed many areas in
the desert particularly in the southwest desert, in areas less populated. Saddam
Hussein intended to launch it as a revenge weapon at Tel Aviv if his regime started to
collapse. Saddam Hussein made no bones about his desire to obtain an atomic bomb
and this was why America honestly believed he had WMDs:
The international and technical organization related to nuclear industries
have a clear and comprehensive picture about what the nuclear options of
the Zionist entity and its strategic aims are in the Arab Homelands. These
options center on developing its non-conventional military capabilities and
denying the Arab the chance to possess them. Having such capabilities,
the Arab will be able to deter the Zionist entity. The Arab will also force it
to think twice before using its capabilities to achieve its expansionistic
intentions. The Arab must give their due concern and attention to this fact
to confront the Zionist entity with all possible means. His Excellency the
President Saddam Hussein (May God save Him) made it clear to the
Egyptian president Mubarak in 1990 that the Arab is ready to join any
convention to keep the area free from mass destruction weapons, not only
the ballistic missiles, on condition that the Zionist entity should be the first
to sign it.194

After the occupation of Iraq a ³top secret´ intelligence memo dated May 20, 2001,
from the Iraqi intelligence station chief in an African country described an offer by a
³holy warrior´ to sell uranium and other nuclear material. The offer was rejected then

Usama bin Laden spoke:

If I have indeed acquired these [nuclear] weapons, then I thank God for
enabling me to do so. And if I seek to acquire these weapons, I am
carrying out a duty. It would be a sin for Muslims not to try to possess the
weapons that would prevent the 

 from inflicting harm on Muslims!

It is much easier to create a gun-type Improvised Nuclear Weapon from Highly

Enriched Uranium than it is from plutonium. With Highly Enriched Uranium not much
engineering is necessary because it suffices to drop two parts on each other that will
then combine to an overcritical mass and explode. However, we must study how to
shoot the two parts on each other rather quickly which is more difficult than it seems.
Would al-Qaeda still be trying to get nuclear material if we had these WMD¶s? Would we
have not used them when the Zionist entity invaded the West Bank of Palestine,
exterminated our Brothers and sisters in the concentration camps they have forced
them to live in for decades upon decade? We have tried and we will try to obtain them,
with the help of Allah [subhanahu wa ta¶ala].

The Brothers in al-Qaeda, including Mohamed Bayazid and Mahmdouh Mahmud

Salim, attempted to get enriched uranium from South Africa, which once had six atomic
weapons. But this operation was never consummated and was exposed when Jamal
Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl, testified in an American court that his superior ordered him
to buy uranium from a former Sudanese army officer. Fadl was asked:

Q. What happened when you went to that street in Khartoum?

. Basheer, he told me, µAre you serious?¶ µYou want uranium?¶ I tell him
yes. I know people, they are very serious, and they want to buy it. And he
told me get the money ready, and say what do they need? They need the
information about uranium, they want to know which quality, which the
country make it, and after that we going to talk with you about the price.
He said I going to give you this information in a paper, and we need
$1,500,000, and everything go well. We need the money outside of
Sudan.

Q. And the price was how much?

. He said he needed $1,500,000. And he said this is for the uranium. But
he needed commission for himself, and he needed commission for Salah
Abdel al Mobruk. After that he tell me how you going to check it? I tell him

 I don't know, I have to go to these people and I tell them what you tell me
and I give you answer for that. I went to Ikhlak company in Baraka building
in Khartoum City, and I told him about the whole information, and he say
tell him we have our machine, electric machine, we going to check the
uranium but first we want to see and we want information. We want to see
the cylinder and we want to need information about the quality and which
country it make. And he tell me, he give me a little paper and he tell me
give him this paper and this information we need. I took the information
and I go back to Fadhl Shaheedin and I told him I need meeting with
Basheer«And we went over there and we, they took us inside house in
Bait al Mal, and after few minutes they bring a big bag and they open it,
and it cylinder, like this tall. (two to three feet) And they give us a paper
and it¶s a lot written in the cylinder. It¶s like engraved -- Abu Rid¶ al Suri
looked ± his paper and he looked to the cylinder, and after that he say OK,
that is good. I went to Abu Hajer [Mahmdouh Mahmud Salim] in his house
and I give him the paper and he need it and he say OK. [On the paper] it¶s
information, I remember it say South Africa and serial number and quality
something. We wait for machine come from Kenya to check it«Abdel
Marouf told me about what happened to the uranium. He told me«

Q. Don¶t tell me what he said. You tried to find out if it was enriched or not
enriched?

. What is ³enriched´?

Q. It was really to be made into a bomb immediately or had to have

something else done to it?

. The quality, yes.

Q. That was to see if this uranium was good enough to build a bomb to kill
a whole lot of people, right?

. Yes.

When we examined the uranium in Cyprus the v
 found that it was low-grade
uranium ore, and the deal was never consummated.

Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood is a Pakistani nuclear scientist who believes that

sunspots control history and moral decadence causes natural catastrophes who was a
member of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission and attended the meeting of
nuclear scientists summoned by Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto on January 20, 1972, that formally
launched Pakistan¶s nuclear weapons program. Usama bin Laden had close contact
with Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood as Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood had been trying to
get hold of supplies of plutonium and enriched uranium to send to the Taliban. The
Taliban gave Bashiruddin permission to conclude business deals on their behalf and his
organization Ummah Tameer-e-Nau,196 a non-governmental organization formed after
his retirement that was affiliated with the U.S. banned Al-Rashid Trust, one of Usama
bin Laden¶s many sources of income.197

Sultan Bashir-ud-Din Mahmood is still the President of Ummah Tameer-e-Nau,

an organization engaged in relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction activities, whose real
aim was and is, to get an atomic bomb to the Taliban. Ummah Tameer-e-Nau is
connected to the Human Development Foundation, which still raises money for the
Taliban within the United States. Most of Ummah Tameer-e-Nau¶s members consist of
doctors, physicists, microbiologists, nuclear scientists and military officers with links to
Pakistani intelligence. The Human Development Foundation¶s organizational partner is
the Tameer-e-Millat Foundation. The July 4, 2003 issue of " " published an
article reporting on Lyndon LaRouche's address to an event held by the Pakistani-
American Tameer-e-Millat (National Building) Foundation in New York City on June 28,
2003 and attended by over 300 people including Shafqat Chaudhary, President of the
New York Chapter of the American Muslim Alliance.198 Tameer-e-Millat is a literacy
foundation that runs Shifa Hospital in Islamabad that was conceived in 1985 to treat
Afghan mujahedeen who had been wounded in the fight against Godless
communism.199 In August 2006 Pakistani police officers arrested 29 Taliban fighters at
the privately run al Khair Hospital in Quetta.200 From January 2007 to February 2007 six
shaheeds detonated bombs in the North Western Frontier Provinces including one in a
courthouse in Quetta that killed 15 people including a senior judge.

Bashiruddin advocated equipping other Islamic nations with enriched uranium

and weapons-grade plutonium. During 2001 Brothers in the Ummah Tameer-e-Nau met
with Elders Usama and Mullah Muhammad Omar, and discussed the development of
nuclear weapons. During a follow-up meeting, an associate of Usama bin Laden
indicated he had nuclear material and wanted to know how to use it to make a weapon.
Bashiruddin provided information about the infrastructure needed for a nuclear weapons
program. In November 2001, the Taliban were forced from Kabul by American puppets
and the workers at the Ummah Tameer-e-Nau¶s Kabul offices fled the area with them.
Searches of these offices in Kabul have given the enemy documents outlining basic
nuclear physics related to nuclear weapons.201 Bashiruddin was interrogated for four
days then hospitalized.202 Bashiruddin released this statement through his son, as he
was under a gag order from Pakistani intelligence:

 Basically Usama bin Laden asked my father, µHow can a nuclear bomb be
made and can you help us make one?¶ My father said, µNo, and secondly
you must understand it is not child¶s play for you to build a nuclear
bomb.¶ At one meeting they brought a box, a thing that someone had sold
to them for a huge amount of money, but my father laughed and said it
was nothing. They had asked me to devise a radiological bomb. It would
be constructed from nuclear material wrapped in conventional high
explosive which bin Laden had obtained from a nuclear storage site in
Uzbekistan. I refused to do so.

Despite a CIA request to have him transferred to the United States, Bashiruddin
was set free. Many nuclear scientists have fled Pakistan, possibly to Iran including
associates of A. Q. Khan and Bashiruddin.203

The Taliban also tried to recruit Russian nuclear scientists, according to

testimony given to the United Nations Security Council, and Mullah Mohammed
Khaksar told the Western press that with 10 capsules of ³uranium´ stuffed into a sock,
Taliban officials once drove off in search of buyers or ideas for what to do with the
smuggled material: ³The Taliban had no experience with such things. We were simple
mullahs.´ Mullah Mohammed Khaksar told of former v
 in the 1996-2001 government
selling uranium to one another, and said he advised supreme leader Mullah Mohammed
Omar to stay out of the trade because the goods appeared phony.204 The Americans
found documents in our Afghan caves analyzing the wind patterns in Washington, D.C.

In January 2006 Oleg Khinsagov came to meet a buyer who he believed would
pay him $1 million and deliver 100 grams of uranium so refined that it could help fuel an
atom bomb to a Muslim man from ''a serious organization.´ The uranium was a sample,
just under four ounces, and the deal a test: If all went smoothly, he boasted, he would
sell a far larger cache stored in his apartment back in Vladikavkaz, two to three
kilograms of the rare material, four and a half to six and a half pounds, which in expert
hands is enough to make a small bomb. The buyer, it turned out, was a Georgian
agent.205 We will eventually obtain radioactive material. From 1993 to 2002 the United
States has discovered 175 cases of trafficking in nuclear material and 201 cases of
trafficking in other radioactive sources such as medical and industrial products and
wastes. Only 18 of these cases have actually involved small amounts of highly enriched
uranium or plutonium. Islamists have repeatedly tried to get weapons grade nuclear
materials from the former Soviet Union and its former satellites. A kilogram of weapon-
grade uranium was stolen from the Luch Production Association in 1992 and three
kilograms of weapon-grade uranium was stolen in Moscow in 1994. In October 2002 a
Russian citizen was arrested trying to smuggle 27 tons (29.75 U.S. tons) of enriched
uranium out of the country, according to the state customs agency.206

The American government considers its own people children, who must be kept
in the dark least they go into a collective sissy-fit. In October 2001, an intelligence alert
went out to the Energy Department¶s top-secret Nuclear Emergency Search Team. The
CIA report said that Islamists were thought to have purchased a 10-kiloton nuclear
weapon from corrupt Russians and planned to smuggle it into New York City. The
source of the report was DRAGONFIRE, whose reliability was untested. But
DRAGONFIRE¶s claim meshed with that of the Russian leader Alexander Lebed who
claimed Soviet suitcase nukes were missing and so the report was given credibility.207

Detonated in lower Manhattan, in front of the Federal Court Building where many
of our Brothers have been sentenced to long prison terms, a 10-kiloton bomb would kill
some 100,000 civilians and irradiate 700,000 more, flattening everything in a half-mile
diameter, including Wall Street. The first to go would be the false-hearted judges and
prosecutors, and the court officers who place our Brothers in chains and cold holding
cells as a form of legalized torture.

Despite the fact we had not obtained such suitcase nuke, counter terrorist
investigators went on their highest state of alert. The suspected nuke¶s alleged
existence, however, was kept secret so as not to panic the people of New York even
before the Americans became aware that both their sources were lying or mistaken.
Senior FBI officials were not informed. Former Phalangist Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said
he was never told about the threat, until he read it in    in March 2001.

c

In the past, many of our attempts to develop atomic weapons have met with
failure. The Western media wonders if we have acquired suitcase-sized nuclear
weapons? In a psychological assault on the West that played on these fears Ayman al-
Zawahiri claimed al-Qaeda bought briefcase nuclear bombs on the central Asian black-
market. ³If you have US$30 million, go to the black market in central Asia, contact any
disgruntled Soviet scientist and a lot of dozens of smart briefcase bombs are available.
They have contacted us, we sent our people to Moscow, to Tashkent, to other central
Asian states and they negotiated and we purchased some suitcase bombs.´209 It was
true that the Soviets had hundreds of these Atomic Demolition Munitions (ADMs). The
ADM was about the size of a large footlocker and could be carried for short distances by
two men. It was basically a modified atomic artillery shell. The so-called ³suitcase´
nukes used plutonium. With plutonium there is the question whether the nuclear
material is still weapon usable. Weapons plutonium normally must be reprocessed
within five to ten years. This certainly has not been done with Russian ³suitcase´ nukes,
so that the energy of a nuclear explosion with this material would probably be rather
small by this time.

On September 7, 1997 the CBS newsmagazine 

   broadcast a story
in which former Russian security chief Alexander Lebed claimed that the Soviet Union
created perhaps one hundred ADMs, and that many were unaccounted for. Lebed was
fired as national security adviser on October 17, 1996 amid intense political fighting
while President Boris Yeltsin was awaiting heart surgery. Lebed admited that he had
only preliminary results of his investigation at that time, and these results were the basis
of his subsequent claims. Lebed was telling the truth about the production of these
weapons, but the Communists kept close track of them least they fall into the hands of
their many enemies. These low-yield (circa 1 kiloton) devices were to be used by
Special Forces for wartime sabotage and thus were small, portable, and not equipped
with standard safety devices to prevent unauthorized detonation. Lebed told Congress

in Russian that they were ³footlocker´ size but his interpreter translated that into
³suitcase´ in English. Lebed immediately understood his interpreter had made an error
and tried to correct it. Lebed, elected governor of Krasnoyarsk Province was killed when
a helicopter he was in hit a power line on April 29, 2002.

No tactical nuclear weapon can fit inside a suitcase. What America did to counter
the Soviet weapon was to remove the warhead from a Davey Crockett missile, that was
basically an atomic artillery shell, and place it in a large trunk along with a detonator.
The warhead used on the Davey Crockett weighed just 51 pounds and was the smallest
and lightest fission bomb (implosion type) ever deployed by the United States, with a
variable explosive yield of 0.01 kilotons (equivalent to 10 tons of TNT, or two to four
times as powerful as the ammonium nitrate bomb which destroyed the Alfred P. Murrah
federal building in Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995), or 0.02 kilotons - 1 kiloton. The
Davy Crockett warhead was designed to explode upon impact so the so-called suitcase
nuke required an explosive detonator that weighed at least twenty pounds. Along with
weight of the lead encased trunk the suitcase nuke would weigh at least 100 pounds.

During a Congressional hearing on Russian espionage held by Representatives

Dan Burton and Curt Weldon on January 24, 2000 in Washington, D.C. Dr. Alexie
Yablokov, former Science Advisor to Boris Yeltsin stated that he was ³absolutely
certain´ that the KGB had manufactured suitcase ±sized nuclear weapons for use
during the 1970s. He said he had met with scientists who designed these weapons,
which he said would not have been included on any ³official list´ of Soviet nuclear
weapons. Yablokov is a distinguished Russian scientist involved in anti-nuclear activism
who would not underplay even a rumor of weapons existing of this nature.

Soviet ex-colonel and GRU operative Stanislav Lunev who defected

to the United States in 1992 after working for more than a decade in the
U.S. as a GRU operative was another witness. Lunev claimed that he
participated in a GRU program collecting information on the American
president and senior U.S. political and military leaders so they could be
targeted for assassination in the event of war. According to Lunev, small man-portable
nuclear weapons ³that could be disguised to look like a suitcase´ might have been pre-
positioned in the United States during peacetime to be employed in a decapitating
Russian attack against U.S. leaders and key communications and military facilities.
Lunev testified that he actively supported the GRU program to pre-position man-
portable nuclear weapons in the United States by identifying in the U.S. potential hiding
places where such weapons could be stored and concealed until needed. Lunev said
that he was specially trained to disguise and camouflage these weapons. His testimony
was never corroborated by KGB documents released after the fall of the Soviet Union
nor was any such nuclear weapon ever found within the borders of the United States.
Aside from the existence of Russian suitcase-sized nuclear weapons on U.S. soil,
Lunev¶s autobiography included these claims: The Russian Mafia controls the Russian
government, the KGB, and the military; the existence and testing of seismic weapons by
the Soviets; the KGB¶s possible use of American POW¶s to test the effects of drugs to
be used on Americans; the GRU¶s plan for poisoning U.S. water supplies and the KGB¶s

Leslie Cockburn, who produced the 

   story, was busily promoting a
book she co-wrote with her husband Andrew on the dangers of nuclear terrorism called
?    
and the Cockburns were co-producers of 
    , a film in
which a female nuclear scientist and a military intelligence officer team up to stop an
Eastern European terrorist and a renegade Russian mercenary who have stolen nuclear
weapons from the former Soviet Union. The narrator of the 
    report, ex-
National Security Council staffer Jessica Stern, was a paid consultant to 

   . Stern was also working on her own book on nuclear terrorism.211

The Bureau of Customs and Border Protection Project Amber provides basic
border control training and advanced courses on the proper utilization of Department of
State-provided x-ray vans to detect nuclear materials. If al-Qaeda should in the future
obtain a small trunk-sized nuclear device the best way to smuggle it into the US would
be sealed in lead in a cargo container. Only 5.4 percent of cargo containers entering
America¶s ports in 2003 were inspected.212







Sooner or later al-Qaeda will be successful in obtaining enriched uranium and

producing a weapon of mass destruction that will strike immeasurable fear into the
hearts of the West. A large chunk of their population and infrastructure will be
destroyed, and those who survive will have a quality of life permeated with fear. In the
meantime al-Qaeda can strike with the poor man¶s atomic bomb ± the RDD - a crude
radiological dispersal device using radioactive sources commonly used in every day life.
The number of radioactive sources around the world is vast; those used in radiotherapy
alone are in the order of ten thousand. Many more are used in industry; for example, to
check for welding errors or cracks in buildings, pipelines and structures. They are also
used for the preservation of food. There are a large number of unwanted radioactive
sources, many of them abandoned, others being simply ³orphaned´ of any regulatory
control. About one radioactive source per day is lost, stolen, or abandoned in the United
States. This is one reason why the New York City Department of Sanitation
Environmental Police check every garbage truck with a sophisticated radiation detector
in case some material used in an RDD ends up in the waste system, a possibility they
deemed likely.213

The explosion of such an RDD in New York City would cause a few hundred
causalities, but thousands more would suffer and die from radiation poisoning and in a
few years the kuffar would be dying off like flies from cancer. Immediate treatment of

those exposed would be impossible because America has only a single hospital
emergency room dedicated to treating patients exposed to radiation hazards, at Oak
Ridge, Tennessee. The detonation of such a bomb in a U.S. city would have a powerful
impact on the conduct of U.S. foreign policy by the Zionist Occupational Government.
The backlash would alienate the   Americans from the Zionist Entity and they would
come to realize that supporting the Zionist settler state was just too costly. According to
the study from the Center for Technology and National Security Policy at the National
Defense University, such a detonation would cost $40 billion from the loss of economic
activity.214 The mass evacuation of dense urban centers would loom large in the minds
of policy-makers, especially after the Jewish Wall Street stock traders fled to their
summer homes in the Hamptons, leaving the less wealthy non-Jews to bear the brunt of
such an attack.

    

Since the glory days of September 2001, the Americans have helped conduct
road and foot searches of the post-Soviet state of Georgia for two missing lead
containers of strontium-90 and have attempted to recover Radioisotope Thermoelectric
Generators, used by the Soviets to power navigational beacons and communications
equipment in remote areas, each containing up to 40,000 curies of highly radioactive
strontium or cesium. Even a tiny fraction of a single curie of strontium has a high
probability of causing a fatal cancer. Cesium and strontium could contaminate large
areas if combined with conventional explosives in an RDD. An ex-member of the
Bulgarian secret services made public a plan by al-Qaeda to buy spent nuclear rods
from the Kozlodui nuclear power station in Bulgaria. He revealed that he was invited to
Peshawar, Pakistan, where he was approached by a man calling himself a chemical
engineer, who spoke of plans to make a ³dirty bomb,´ which would spread radioactivity
over a large area when it exploded in a major city like New York. 215 Authorities arrested
four v
 in Chkalovsk, Tajikistan, for possession of two kilograms of stolen uranium.
Our Brothers remained loyal and did not say how they obtained the uranium or what
they planned to do with it. Laboratory tests, however, determined it came from a metal
plant in Taboshar, near Chkalovsk.216 In Kyrgyzstan in January 2002 masked men
armed with clubs forced their way into a once-secret plant. They beat the guards into
submission, tied them up, and stole 460 kilograms of a europium oxide powder used in
nuclear reactors in manufacturing the rods that control nuclear reactions.217 In
September 2002 Ukrainian authorities detained a 55-year-old Russian man in the
southwestern Mukachevskiy region near the Hungarian border after allegedly trying to
sell four plates of radioactive material weighing 400 grams (14 ounces). Police
confiscated the plates, believed to be uranium. Earlier that month police in the
southeastern city of Pavlohrad arrested a 26-year-old Russian who allegedly tried to sell
a container of strontium-90. Officials believe the suspect obtained the radioactive

three containers of radioactive Cesium-137 were lost from the former Soviet military
base of Vaziani in Kvemo Kartli region, near Tbilisi. A criminal case was opened in
connection with the incident under the Illegal Export of Radioactive Substances. The
law mandates five years of imprisonment for such a crime. The punishment may extend
to eight years of imprisonment if vile use of the substance is proven.219 On May 31,
2003 Georgian authorities found Cesium-137 and Strontium-90 and a container of lethal
Mustard Gas in a taxi in Tbilisi. One container, inscribed in Russian and English,
weighed at least 170 pounds.220 On October 23, 2003 Latvian authorities intercepted
stolen Strontium and detained four people found in the corridor of the University of
Latvia's solid-state radiation chemistry laboratory. They were released within a week
since Latvian laws do not envisage bringing to trial persons suspected of illegal handling
of radioactive substances if not repeated within a one-year period.221 In December 2003
in the Transdniester Moldovan Republic located along Moldova's eastern border 38
Alazan warheads modified to carry radioactive isotopic material disappeared. In the
documents describing these weapons the commander requested technical help in
dealing with radiation exposure related to storage of the warheads. He complained that
uniforms of soldiers working with the warheads were so contaminated that they had to
be ³destroyed by burning and burying.´222 There have been thefts of radioactive material
throughout the world.223

. In June 2003 the police in Thailand seized 30 kilograms of Cesium after Narong Penanam, a Surin native, had offered to sell an
undercover agent uranium-235 and uranium-238 for 10 million baht for use in building bombs. The informant said a group of soldiers
had stolen Cesium-137 and several other radioactive materials during the fall of the Soviet Union. He was told that the group still
had 11 pieces of radioactive material weighing around 30kg-40kg each, and that one of them was uranium weighing 90 kg and
priced at tens of million of baht. (Alessandro Andreoni and Charles D. Ferguson ³Radioactive Cesium Seizure in Thailand: Riddled
with Uncertainties´ Monterey Institute of International Studies July 17, 2003. http://cns.miis.edu/pubs/week/030717.htm) In July 2002
four people were sentenced to prison in Southwest China¶s Sichuan province for stealing the radioactive material cobalt 60. The
Panzhihua 502 power station discovered that the 63 units of cobalt 60 were missing during a routine check on February 22, 2002.
Cobalt 60 is a highly radioactive material, with 63 units of cobalt 60 capable of causing radiation damage comparable to that of an A-
bomb. The four former employees of the power station mistook the cobalt 60, which is coated in lead, for an ordinary metal and sold
it to a metal recycling factory for 2.2 Yuan (27 U.S. cents) per kilogram. (Radioactive thieves jailed in Sichuan,´ July 24, 2002

China. A reward of $600 was offered for its return. (http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-02/11/content_304926.htm) In
July 2002 an inch-long capsule of iridium-192 disappeared from a truck traveling in Mexico just south of California¶s border with
Mexico. Pemex, Mexico¶s state-owned oil company used the 8-inch by 6-inch cylinder containing the capsule of iridium-192 to X-ray
its pipelines. (USATODAY.com July 27, 2002 ³U.S. ports of entry on alert after iridium

137. One of the Brothers was enrolled at a commercial flight school and would overfly the Pickering nuclear power plant near
Toronto. Two of the Brothers were caught at the same nuclear facility at 4:15 a.m. one night, claiming they were going to the beach.

Until the 1950s, only naturally occurring radioactive materials, such as radium-
226, were available to be used in sealed sources. The term ³sealed source´ is used to
distinguish medical, industrial, and research radioactive isotopes from material used in
nuclear weapons and as fuel in nuclear reactors. Since then, sealed sources containing
radioactive material produced artificially in nuclear reactors and particle accelerators
have become widely available, including cobalt-60, strontium-90, technetium-99m,
cesium-137, and iridium-192.

Under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, the states retain sole regulatory authority
over most naturally occurring radioactive material as well as most sealed sources. The
Nuclear Regulatory Commission's (NRC) jurisdiction extends only to those materials
used as a source of material for nuclear fuel or created as a result of irradiation in
nuclear reactors. The NRC's licensing process assumes an applicant is acting in good
faith and allows applicants to acquire sealed sources as soon as a new license is issued
by mail. It can then take NRC as long as 12 months to conduct its first inspection,
leaving the possibility those materials will be obtained by al-Qaeda and used to create
an RDD in the meantime.

The American¶s General Services Administration inspected facilities that were

licensed by the state government to possess sealed radioactive substances and
reported: ³During a visit to a hospital we were told that sealed sources, including
strontium-90, cesium-137, and iridium-192, were securely stored in a room equipped
with an electronic lock with limited access. Later, during a tour of the hospital, we found
the room unlocked, unattended, and the door propped open. The hospital official
explained that this practice was very unusual; he locked the room door after inspection
and continued the tour. Shortly thereafter, we passed the room for a second time.
Again, the room was unlocked, unattended, and the door propped open. The storage
room was in close proximity to the hospital's laundry and maintenance facility, which is
accessible to any hospital employee. In addition, an entry to the hospital from the
outside was also nearby, and this entrance was not guarded nor equipped with radiation
detection equipment to notify security if any sealed sources were being removed or
stolen.´224

Spent fuel is the alternative choice for the radioactive material to be

used in the construction of an RDD. Many tens of thousands of tons of it lie
scattered around the world, including small accumulations in Iraq, Iran,
Algeria, Libya, Syria, and Pakistan. In the West, it is not as well guarded as
actual nuclear weapons. In this regard Sergei Bakhvalov, a top Siberian
nuclear scientist was kidnapped225 then executed when he refused to co-
operate with us. Bakhvalov disappeared after leaving his home with an unidentified man
on August 18, 2002. Bakhvalov was the author of over 80 scientific works and the head
of the Kristall research center. This center has been involved in developing unique
technologies of disposing of radioactive waste, for the Russian Nuclear Energy Ministry,
for 12 years. The Kristall research institute won a contract in 2001 to re-use nuclear fuel
from the sunken submarine Kursk. Police sources said their main theory is that
Bakhvalov¶s murder was connected with his ³commercial activities,´ dismissing our hand
in his demise.

In the 1980¶s Benin accepted two shiploads of radioactive waste from France, in
exchange for a guarantee of thirty years of economic assistance. The London
newsletter 
    said that Beninoise president Mathieu Kerekou decided that
the waste was to be buried on the outskirts of Abomey, near the village of the leading
opposition figure, Michel Aikpe, who died in 1975.226 Now the ³Uncle Abdul,´ United
States Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham has declared that Washington would spend
$3 million in 2003 to help poorer governments secure high-risk radiation sources that
could be used for terror weapons. Before the threat of RDD materialized no thought was
given to the carcinogenic effects of these substances on people of the Third World.
Sources of radioactive waste can be found everywhere ± in New York City an
abandoned building that once housed the Radium Chemical Company contained large
quantities of ³radium needles´ once used in cancer therapy.227

In September 1997 undetected radioactive americium entered the Royal Green

facility in Pennsylvania for recycling. The processing at the plant stripped away the
shielding, and, consequently, radiation was detected at the load¶s destination.228 It will
be poetic justice if Americans are poisoned by americium. Here is al-Qaeda¶s plan: The
radiation source in an ionization chamber smoke detector is a very small disc of
americium, about 3 to 5 millimeters in diameter, weighing about 0.5 gram. This amount
of americium in a loose powdered form would give a significant dose of radiation if
inhaled.229 Smoke detectors are widely available in America and all that is needed to
purchase them at wholesale prices in quantity is a resale number and some bogus
stationary. A thousand of them will provide enough radioactive powder to cause panic in

a densely populated city like New York. The extracted powder can be spread over a
wide area through the use of an aerial bomb. Instructions, materials and chemicals to
produce such a device can be found on the website of United Nuclear.230 The plans
presented there are easily modified. Simply add the ground up americium to the black
powder that goes in the M-80 exploding rocket. When the fuse is lit, the black powder
ignites, shooting the M-80 up into the air. At the same time, the flame from the lift
charge ignites the delay fuse on the M-80. When the fuse burns out, the M-80 explodes
and scatters the radioactive material for several blocks.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office became aware of this loophole and
reported,

Some of the lesser radioactive sources are frequently found by DOE to be

kept in quantities where their aggregated radioactivity would be equivalent
to an IAEA category 2 source that would present a security concern.
These lesser radioactive sources also may be more susceptible to
inadvertent loss, which has already led in some cases to radiation
exposure, high decontamination costs, and public panic. IAEA
acknowledged in its Code of Conduct that its categorization of high-risk
radiological sources is based on health effects and does not fully take into
account the range of impacts that could result from accidents or malicious
acts involving radioactive sources.231

American intelligence had to admit that al-Qaeda has acquired small quantities of
radioactive material to be used in an RDD232 as the British had already revealed this,
after they sent infiltrators into our al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan. We acquired
radioactive medical isotopes from the Taliban then, in our nuclear laboratory in the
Afghan city of Herat, we ground the medical isotopes into a fine powder. For every
tablespoon of high explosives, we mixed well one tablespoon of the powdered isotope.
Then we added a dash of napalm or industrial glue. Although we never used the
weapon in the field nor has any such weapon been discovered, it caused incapacitating
radiation poisoning to the Brother who put it together.
