1️⃣ Connecting the dots, the threads of Islamist extremist groups from Kabul to Tehran to Doha and Hamburg and more , the real actors in the 9/11 Terrorist Attacks and more.
2️⃣ The 9/11 attacks are not a single secluded event, the attacks tie into past and present events and players who believe in the extremist islamist ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood and Sayed Qutb
3️⃣ Among the strongest believers in the teachings of the Muslim Brotherhood was the Iranian Supreme leader Imam AlKhomeini.
🔊Image shows Sayed Qutb and Mahabati Nawab Safawi one of the most important players in the Khomeinist revolution.
4️⃣ A picture taken in the 40s of the 20th century that collected #SayedQutb and the Iranian “Mojtaba” #Nawab_Safawi, who is close to Khomeini and the founder of the Islamic revolutionary organization, “The Islamists Fedayeen”.
5️⃣ Now you can see that the Sufi Muslim Brotherhood and the Shiite Iranian regime were never enemies, in fact they were best of friends, unlike how they are shown to be in the main stream media.
6️⃣ The Pan Arab Baathism, PLO, Mufti Husayni's Arab Nazis and Socialist all are linked to the Muslim Brotherhood in very complex ways and relationships of power structures that are built on hate and ideas of racial, religious and sectarian supremacy .
Part two : The Khaled Shiekh Mohammed paradox
7️⃣ By early 1999, al Qaeda was already a potent adversary of the United States, but since the early 90s both Saudi Arabia and Egypt who are America's allies in the Middle East were the main targets of AlQaida in the Middle East .
8️⃣ Bin Ladin and his chief of operations, Abu Hafs al Masri, also known as Mohammed Atef, occupied undisputed leadership positions atop al Qaeda’s organizational structure.
9️⃣ Within this structure, al Qaeda’s worldwide terrorist operations relied heavily on the ideas and work of enterprising and strongwilled field commanders who enjoyed considerable autonomy.
🔟 To understand how the organization worked and to introduce the origins of the 9/11 plot, I briefly examine three of these subordinate commanders:Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) 9/11, Riduan Isamuddin (better known as Hambali) Bali bombing , and Abd al Rahim al Nashiri USS Cole.
1️⃣1️⃣ We will focus on Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the so called chief leader of the “planes operations.”
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
No one exemplifies the model of the terrorist fanatic leader more clearly than Khalid Sheikh Mohammed.
1️⃣2️⃣ The principal architect of the 9/11 attacks. KSM followed a rather tortuous path to his eventual membership in al Qaeda.
KSM a highly educated and equally comfortable in a government office job in Qatar and a terrorist asset to the Qatari regime at the time.
1️⃣3️⃣ KSM applied his sick and twisted imagination,technical aptitude,and administrative skills to hatching and planning an extraordinary array of terrorist schemes.
1️⃣4️⃣ These ideas included conventional car bombing,political assassination,aircraft bombing, hijacking, reservoir poisoning, smuggling AlQaida key members into other countries using Qatari passports and, ultimately, the use of aircraft as missiles guided by suicide soldiers.
1️⃣5️⃣ Like his nephew Ramzi Yousef (three years KSM’s junior), KSM grew up in Kuwait but traces his ethnic lineage to the Baluchistan region straddling Iran and Pakistan.
Raised in a religious family,KSM joined the Muslim Brotherhood at age 16.
KSM and Ramzi both became enamored of violent jihadist ideology at youth camps in the Kuwaiti desert orgnized by the Muslim Brotherhood of Kuwait in the early 80s.
1️⃣7️⃣ KSM left Kuwait to enroll at Chowan College, a small Baptist school in Murfreesboro,North Carolina.After a semester at Chowan,KSM transferred to North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in Greensboro, which he attended with Yousef’s brother.
1️⃣8️⃣ KSM earned a degree in mechanical engineering in December 1986.
Although he apparently did not attract attention for extreme Islamist beliefs or activities while in the United States, KSM plunged into the anti-Soviet Afghan jihad soon after graduating from college.
1️⃣9️⃣ Visiting Pakistan for the first time in early 1987,he traveled to Peshawar,where his brother Zahid introduced him to the famous Afghan mujahid Abdul Rasul Sayyaf, head of the HizbulIttihad El-Islami (Islamic Union Party).
2️⃣0️⃣The Hamas Connection :Sayyaf became KSM’s mentor and provided KSM with military training at Sayyaf’s Sada camp.
KSM claims he then fought the Soviets and remained at the front for three months before being summoned to perform administrative duties for Abdullah Azzam.
2️⃣1️⃣ KSM next took a job working for an electronics firm that catered to the communications needs of Afghan groups, where he learned about drills used to excavate caves in Afghanistan.
2️⃣2️⃣ Between 1988 and 1992,KSM helped run a nongovernmental organization (NGO) in Peshawar and Jalalabad; sponsored by Sayyaf, he was finally in as a man the Islamist can trust and invest in his ambitious and successful business practices.
🔊NGO's play a significant role in the financing and logistics support for terrorist organizations, NGO's is a tool in the arsenal of terrorism that yet to be successfully controlled by world governments fighting terrorism because of how complex they tend to be.
2️⃣3️⃣The NGO KSM worked for was designed to aid young Afghan mujahideen.
In 1992, KSM spent some time fighting alongside the mujahideen in Bosnia and supporting that effort with financial donations. After returning briefly to Pakistan, he moved his family to Qatar.
2️⃣4️⃣ Part three : the rise of the new terrorist dynamic, Qatar, Iran and Muslim Brotherhood Europe setup for the domain of the Middle East and the world.
2️⃣5️⃣ KSM finally found his calling and moved to Qatar at the suggestion of his good friend the former minister of Islamic affairs of Qatar, Sheikh Abdallah bin Khalid bin Hamad al Thani who saw the huge potential of KSM as a power piece to further expand the Qatari influence .
2️⃣6️⃣ KSM took a position in Qatar as project engineer with the Qatari Ministry of Electricity and Water, in what was a clear cover job for KSM. KSM engaged in extensive international travel during his tenure at the ministry much of it in furtherance of terrorist activity.
2️⃣7️⃣ KSM used his position to expand the Qatari network of "NGO's" and would hold his position there until early 1996, when he fled to Pakistan with the aid of the Qatari government to avoid capture by U.S. authorities . https://thearabweekly.com/qatar-and-curious-case-khalid-sheikh-mohammed
2️⃣8️⃣The first attack on American soil was carried by the Palestinian 69-year-old Palestinian immigrant Ali Hassan Abu Kamal opened fire on the observation deck of the Empire State Building killing a Danish musician and injuring 6 other people before committing suicide.
2️⃣9️⃣ The Mostar attack that was carried out by al-Qaeda , and targeted Croatian civilians and policemen as retribution against the Croatian Defence Council (HVO), which had fought Muslim forces for control of the city during the Bosnian War.
3️⃣0️⃣ Deir el-Bahari, Egypt6 Islamist gunmen from the MB military arm Gamaat Alislam Iya massacred 58 foreign tourists and 4 Egyptians at the Temple of Hatshepsut
3️⃣1️⃣ Uyghyr separatists bombed three buses in Ürümqi, killing 9 people, including 3 children, and injuring 74. Another bomb was found at Ürümqi's main railway station but was defused.
3️⃣2️⃣ Coimbatore bombings 1998, India13 bombs exploded over the course of two hours in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, killing 58 people. The bombs were planted by Islamic extremists Al Ummah organization and were meant to target Hindus as well as Hindu nationalist leader L.K. Advani
3️⃣3️⃣ Two United States Embassies in Nairobi, Kenya and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania were bombed by members of al-Qaeda and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad an MB affiliate . 224 people were killed in the blasts (213 in Nairobi, 11 in Dar es Salaam) and over 4,000 people were wounded.
3️⃣4️⃣ According to the Federal Security Service, the bombings utilized a mechanical mixture of aluminium powder and ammonia nitrate as the explosive.
🔊Hezbulla favorite bombing method and one of their most commonly used to carry on attacks.
3️⃣5️⃣ The terrorists have received instruction in training centers run by Khattab and Basayev in Chechnya.1999 Tashkent bombings: Six car bombs targeting government buildings and Uzbek president Islam Karimov exploded over the course of an hour and a half.
3️⃣6️⃣ 1999 Jessore bombings: Islamist group Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami used two time bombs to attack Bangladesh Udichi Shilpigoshthi, killing 10 people and injuring another 150
💡Since Hamad Bin Khalifa assumed role in Qatar a huge spike in terrorism around the Middle East and the world spiked, the Muslim Brotherhood association with the Qatari regime helped accelerate the MB plans thanks to the limitless funds by Qatar
3️⃣7️⃣ Part four : The paradigm shift in terrorism, the MB worldwide efforts are aligned : The target is America.
3️⃣8️⃣ In December 1999–January 2000.Hambali accommodated KSM’s requests to help several veterans whom KSM had just finished training in Karachi Pakistan .
3️⃣9️⃣ They included Tawfiq bin Attash,also known as Khallad a handler who orgnize, recruit and carry on directive and administrative roles for AlQaida attacks ,he later would help bomb the USS Cole,and future 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al Hazmi and Khalid al Mihdhar.
4️⃣0️⃣ A three-day-long meeting was held in the hotel room of Yazid Sufaat, a former Malaysian Army captain and businessman, in a hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
4️⃣1️⃣ The summit's purpose was to plan future attacks, which included the October 2000 bombing of the USS Cole and the 11 September 2001 attack plot. The attendance consisted of Arab veterans of the Soviet–Afghan War.
4️⃣2️⃣ Among the most notable Hambali a Pakistani senior leader of AlQaida , Ramzi bin al-Shibh a Yemeni & a "key facilitator for the September 11 attacks" , Nawaf al-Hazmi a Saudi fighter , Khalid al-Mihdhar a Yemeni-Saudi fighter , and Tawfiq bin Attash a handler for AlQaida .
⚠️ Before the meeting, the United States intercepted a telephone call to Yemen by al-Mihdhar concerning arrangements for the trip. Osama bin Laden had called that number dozens of times,
⚠️By request of the CIA, the Malaysian authorities videotaped the meeting, but no sound recordings were made.
🔊Are you frigging kidding me?
⚠️The men were also photographed when they came out of the meeting. American investigators did not identify these men until much later. That bin al-Shibh attended the meeting was discovered by the investigators by looking into his credit card records.
⚠️Sufaat was later arrested, but he denied that he knew any of the men and said that Hambali had arranged the meeting.
🔊 Do look at the facts , the planner of the 9 11 attack was Pakistani with ties to Qatar KSM , the facilitators were yemanis Attash and AlShibah, and the recruiting was done by a German Syrian Mohammed Haydar Zammar who was part of the Hamburg cell.
4️⃣3️⃣ Part five : The German connection.
4️⃣4️⃣ On November 1, 1998, future-hijackers Mohamed Atta an Egyptian member of AlQaida and the leader of the hijackers , Marwan al-Shehhi an Emarati hijacker-pilot of United Airlines Flight 175 , and Ramzi bin al-Shibh a Yemeni facilitator for AlQaida
The 4 moved into an apartment together on Marienstraße. Here they formed the secretive Hamburg cell, which also included other participants in the 9/11 plot including Mohammed Haydar Zammar who recruited the hijackers.
4️⃣6️⃣ They met together three or four times a week to discuss their strategy and the anti-American and anti-Israeli views that enabled them to recruit foot soldiers.
4️⃣7️⃣ The 9/11 Commission Report notes in Chapter 5 that "according to bin al-Shibh now in U.S. custody, a chance meeting on a train in Germany caused the group to travel to Afghanistan instead.
🔊Obviously that's load of bull s*** the sequence of events shows it was planned.
🚫 An individual named Khalid al Masri (or Khalid al-Masri) approached bin al-Shibh and Shehhi (because they were Arabs with beards, bin al-Shibh thinks) and struck up a conversation about jihad in Chechnya. When they later called Masri and expressed well in going to Chechnya,
🚫he told them to contact Abu Musab in Duisburg.
Abu Musab turned out to be Mohamedou Ould Slahi, a significant al-Qaeda operative who, even then, was well known to U.S. and German intelligence, though neither government apparently knew he was operating in Germany in late 1999."
🔊This makes no sense since Abu Musab is a key player and leading figure of AlQaida who is well recognized since the med 80s, he was also on the most wanted lists of Saudi, Egyptian and American intelligence agencies at the time.
4️⃣8️⃣Part 6 The 9/11 hijackers and the recruiter :
Zammar’s family moved to Germany when he was 10, and he first tried to participate in armed conflict in 1982, far earlier than has previously been reported.
4️⃣9️⃣ He traveled to Jordan a in an attempt to enter Syria to join the armed wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Fighting Vanguard, which was engaged in an earlier uprising against the ruling Assad family.
5️⃣0️⃣ He was turned back by the Jordanian authorities, but on the trip he met a man who would play a big role in his future: Mohammed al-Bahaiya, known as Abu Khaled al-Suri, who would later become a key figure in the current Syrian war.
5️⃣1️⃣ At Bahaiya’s invitation, he made his first visit to Afghanistan in 1991, to receive military training at one of the militant camps being run by Bahaiya.
5️⃣2️⃣ Over the next decade, Zammar moved through the militant-Islamist circuit, traveling regularly to Afghanistan, volunteering for a stint with al-Qaeda-affiliated militants in the war in Bosnia and visiting London
5️⃣3️⃣ where he befriended the Jordanian Palestinian preacher Abu Qatada, a prominent figure long suspected by the United States of having links to al-Qaeda.
5️⃣4️⃣ Meanwhile, Zammar was developing a circle of followers at Hamburg’s al-Quds mosque, which had become a magnet for young Muslims in the city and eventually the hub of radicalization of young men and recruiting them as cannon fodder in the service of the Muslim Brotherhood .
5️⃣5️⃣ Zammar says he failed to qualify as an imam or preacher at the mosque because he was unable to memorize the Koran, but he held regular gatherings with small groups of the men who went there to pray,
5️⃣6️⃣ seeking to convince them that they had a duty to wage jihad on behalf of Muslims worldwide and to travel to Afghanistan for military training.
5️⃣7️⃣ The first member of the Hamburg cell he remembers meeting was Ramzi Binalshibh a known facilitatorvl that outrank Zammar, Next he met Mohamed Atta, the hijackers’ ringleader, who piloted the first of the two planes that struck the World Trade Center towers.
5️⃣8️⃣ Zammar recalls Atta as a “good guy” with “high moral standards.” Then came the others: Marwan al-Shehhi, a citizen of the United Arab Emirates who steered the plane that struck the second tower
5️⃣9️⃣ Ziad Samir Jarrah, the Lebanese who piloted the plane that crashed in a Pennsylvania field after passengers overpowered the hijackers; and four others from the group whom Zammar also persuaded to travel to Afghanistan
6️⃣0️⃣ Zammar says “It was not easy. It took time. They were studying at the university,” he said. “I was telling them, for example, someone is going to attack you, your honor, your property, while you cannot even use a pistol.
6️⃣1️⃣ There is no country in the world that does not have an army to defend itself, while we Muslims do not.”
Notice his words are that aligned with the creed of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Zammar claims he didn't know, obviously he is lying.
6️⃣2️⃣ Part 7 The disaster : the hijackers arrival to the United States and the attacks of 9/11 zero hour.
6️⃣3️⃣ The first hijackers to arrive in the United States were Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi, who settled in San Diego County, California, in January 2000.
6️⃣4️⃣ They were followed by 3 hijacker-pilots, Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi, and Ziad Jarrah in mid-2000 to undertake flight training in South Florida.
6️⃣5️⃣ The fourth hijacker-pilot, Hani Hanjour, arrived in San Diego in December 2000. The rest of the "muscle hijackers" arrived in early- and mid-2001.
6️⃣6️⃣ Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi were both experienced and respected jihadists in the eyes of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
6️⃣7️⃣ As for the pilots who would go on to participate in the attacks, three of them were original members of the Hamburg cell (Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah).
6️⃣8️⃣ Following their training at al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan, they were chosen by Bin Laden and al-Qaeda's military wing due to their extensive knowledge of western culture and language skills, increasing the mission's operational security and its chances for success.
6️⃣9️⃣ The fourth intended pilot, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, a member of the Hamburg cell, was also chosen to participate in the attacks yet was unable to obtain a visa for entry into the United States. He was later replaced by Hani Hanjour, a Saudi national.
7️⃣0️⃣ Mihdhar and Hazmi were also potential pilot hijackers, but did not do well in their initial pilot lessons in San Diego. Both were kept on as "muscle" hijackers, who would help overpower the passengers and crew and allow the pilot hijackers to take control of the flights.
7️⃣1️⃣ In addition to Mihdhar and Hazmi, thirteen other muscle hijackers were selected in late 2000 or early 2001. All were from Saudi Arabia, with the exception of Fayez Banihammad, who was from the United Arab Emirates.
7️⃣2️⃣ Part 8 the root of all evil
