[Austin-ghetto-list] pieces falling into place

[Michael Eisenstadt]

Crucial evidence that links bin Laden to the 
terrorist attacks on New York and Washington 
nearly three weeks ago has been obtained by 
The Observer. A secret intelligence dossier 
compiled by an Arab state with a longstanding 
interest in bin Laden last night revealed 
that at least one of the 19 hijackers was 
trained in a camp in Afghanistan run by al-Qaeda 
and that another is 'close to bin Laden'.

American security sources told The Observer 
they believe four of the hijackers had spent 
time in Afghanistan with the Taliban and 
possibly with al-Qaeda. One, Wali Mohamed 
al-Sherhi, is believed to have been taught 
urban warfare and terrorism in al-Farooq 
training camp in eastern Afghanistan, close 
to the Pakistan border. 

He is thought to have left Afghanistan 18 
months ago. The dossier, for the first time, 
definitely links al-Farooq to bin Laden, 
naming four men who are bin Laden aides 
who it says administer and train those at 
the camp. <- from English newspaper Web site

wait a minute. al-Sherhi was with Atta at
Shuckums drinking rum and Stolnichaya Friday
before. on Tuesday they took SEPARATE 
flights. Atta the schoolnik thought it 
up in 1996, bin Laden sent one of his best 
guys to help Atta 18 months ago.

the 27 year old Algerian flyboy who 
gave the pilots final training this
summer in Las Vegas area is in CUSTODY.
he flew for some airline or other and
lived in an apartment near London's
Heathrow airport.

I feel like the Taliban might just 
arrange to fall back for Special 
Forces to grab bin Laden. you will 
remember what the Afghan peasant was 
reported as saying recently: Why don't 
they just slit his throat and throw 
the body over the border?
