FACT: people with hijacker's names still alive

WASHINGTON -- Among the human remains painstakingly sorted from the Pentagon and Pennsylvania crash sites of Sept. 11 are those of nine of the hijackers.
The FBI has held them for months, and no one seems to know what should be done with them. It's a politically and emotionally charged question for the government, which eventually must decide how to dispose of some of the most despised men in American history.

Four sets of remains in Pennsylvania and five at the Pentagon were grouped together as the hijackers -- but not identified by name -- through a process of elimination.
Families of the airplanes' passengers and crews and those who died within the Pentagon provided DNA samples, typically on toothbrushes or hairbrushes, to aid with identification. The remains that didn't match any of those samples were ruled to be the terrorists, said Chris Kelly, spokesman for the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, which did the DNA work. The nine sets of remains matched the number of hijackers believed to be on the two planes.

As investigators pursued new leads on Saturday, some old ones seemed to be falling apart. And new ones with odd twists were emerging. An FBI spokeswoman said the agency is working on 1,000 leads in Florida alone.
Among those leads are The Washington Post story about a possible U.S. role in the training of the pilots. A man named Saeed Alghamdi graduated from the Defense Language Institute at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, the Post reported. Men with the same names as two other suspected hijackers, Mohamed Atta and Abdulaziz Alomari, appear as graduates of the U.S. International Officers School at Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala., and the Aerospace Medical School at Brooks Air Force Base in San Antonio, respectively.
“Some of the FBI suspects had names similar to those used by foreign alumni of U.S. military courses,” the Air Force said in a statement. “However, discrepancies in their biographical data, such as birth dates 20 years off, indicate we are probably not talking about the same people.”

"Two of 19 suspects named by the FBI, Saeed Alghamdi and Ahmed Alghamdi, have the same names as men listed at a housing facility for foreign military trainees at Pensacola. Two others, Hamza Alghamdi and Ahmed Alnami, have names similar to individuals listed in public records as using the same address inside the base.

The Pentagon has turned over military records on five men to the FBI.
Sept. 15 — U.S. military sources have given the FBI information that suggests five of the alleged hijackers of the planes that were used in Tuesday’s terror attacks received training at secure U.S. military installations in the 1990s.
THREE OF THE alleged hijackers listed their address on drivers licenses and car registrations as the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Fla.—known as the “Cradle of U.S. Navy Aviation,” according to a high-ranking U.S. Navy source.
Another of the alleged hijackers may have been trained in strategy and tactics at the Air War College in Montgomery, Ala., said another high-ranking Pentagon official.

And now,
let us hear what acerbic objection BOLOboffin will utter.
Start by naming ONE
JUST ONE SINGLE INDIVIDUAL
who has been convicted by the FBI based on 911 evidence.
Mary Jo White and I are waiting.

"We believe he is by far the biggest find we have had so far. He is of crucial importance to us," an FBI source told the Times of London.
Lotfi Raissi, 27, the first of dozens of suspects arrested across Europe to be officially linked to the U.S. hijackings, was ordered held without bail after a British prosecutor told the court that Raissi may have helped the hijackers acquire their piloting skills.
"What we say is that he was in fact a lead instructor for four of the pilots responsible for the hijackings," said the prosecutor, Arvinda Sambir. "He was in the background to facilitate training of these pilots. His job was to ensure the pilots were capable and trained."
Sambir said Raissi's mission related to American Airlines Flight 77, the plane that crashed into the Pentagon. It was unclear whether he was suspected of training hijackers on other jets.

An Algerian pilot wrongly accused by the United States government of training some of the September 11 hijackers is to sue the FBI and the Department of Justice for $20m (about £13m), his British lawyers announced yesterday.
Lotfi Raissi, 29, who spent five months in Belmarsh high security prison following the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon, had originally been told by the US that he was likely to be charged with conspiracy to murder and could face the death penalty.
However, a British judge refused to extradite him to America on the grounds that there was no evidence against him.

Mrs Raissi said yesterday: "There was not a shred of evidence that Lotfi had ever been connected to terrorism. He was not even charged with terrorism, just stupid minor charges that the judge threw out anyway. Our lives have been ruined by what we were put through.

Your lot can't even nail Lotfi Raissi for knee surgery

The documents turned over to Congress included an FBI affidavit against Lotfi Raissi, an Algerian pilot the United States is trying to extradite from Britain in proceedings that began Tuesday.
Authorities allege Raissi trained some of the hijackers who attacked the Pentagon. The affidavit said he made false statements in applying for a pilot's license.
The FBI said Raissi failed to notify the Federal Aviation Administration of knee surgery and told the FAA he had no history of non-traffic convictions although he had been convicted of theft in Britain.

Lotfi Raissi was originally held on suspicion of having trained one of the suicide pilots but those charges were dismissed at an earlier hearing when the U.S. failed to substantiate its case.
On Wednesday, the U.S. attempt to have Raissi extradited on lesser charges such as lying on a pilot's licence application form was also thrown out.

That's why Ashcoft and Co so desperately need to torture people.
It is the ONLY way they are going to get a guilty plea or verdict.

A long-term resident of the United States who President Bush believes may have aided a terrorist can now be tried in secret by a military commission and be sentenced to death on the basis of hearsay and rumor with no appeal to any civilian court, even the Supreme Court. This is the upshot of the "military order" issued by Bush on November 13, 2001. And that is not all. Noncitizens suspected of membership in Al Qaeda or of aiming "to cause injury to or adverse effects on the United States" can be rounded up and "detained at an appropriate location" for an indefinite time without access to the courts.

FACT: all four hijacked planes totally destroyed

BOLOboffin therefore impugnes the integrity of the FAA.
