Iraq tested a RDD bomb in 1987 according to a secret Iraqi report on the
weapon¶s construction and testing. It was a conventional bomb filled with radioactive
materials - apparently, spent fuel from research reactors. The report stated that
radiation sickness would ³weaken enemy units from the standpoint of health and inflict
losses that would be difficult to explain, possibly producing an adverse psychological
effect.´1 That same year Iraq developed radiological weapons with short half-lives
calculated to contaminate large areas and cause long-term genetic damage yet would
be virtually undetectable after a few months. The problem the Iraqis discovered was
dispersal. The power of radiation, like that of light, falls off as the square of the distance
from the source. A RDD may contain enough radiation to kill a person at close range,
yet when exploded to a mere 100-feet radius the radiation is about one ten-thousandth
as deadly as the un-exploded material.2

While a radiological dispersal would not pose immediate, acute health problems
for the general public, the public could experience measurable increases in cancer
mortality over a period of decades after such an event. Moreover, releases at the site
could also have environmental consequences requiring hundreds of millions to billions
of dollars to clean up. Contamination could also affect habitability for tens of miles from
the site, possibly affecting hundreds of thousands of residents for many years.3 The
Iraqi¶s attempted development of an RDD was poetic justice. There an increase in
childhood cancer deaths due to depleted uranium used in America¶s weapons during
the Gulf War. The American government insisted the uranium in the bullets was not
radioactive enough to be classed as a radiological weapon yet those tank-killing shells
turned the Iraqi desert into a permanently radioactive area. Usama bin Laden
commented, ³What does the destruction of the infrastructure in Iraq mean and the
tragedy that befell them mean? And the use of depleted uranium, besieging Iraq for
years, causing the death of more than one million children that amazed all who had
visited Iraq, including the Westerners themselves? It is a malicious crusade against
Muslims.´

Mexico then smuggle it into the United States with the help of ³wetback´ smugglers who
believe that our operative is a Mexican trying to enter the United States in order to find
work. Immigrant smuggling is a billion dollars a year industry - Mexico's second-most
profitable criminal enterprise, behind drugs. On November 12, 2003, Mexican
authorities arrested Imelda Ortiz Abdala, Mexico's consul in Lebanon on charges of
helping a smuggling ring move Arab migrants into the United States from Mexico.5

The New York City police have installed a radiation detector outside police
headquarters in Lower Manhattan to thwart our intentions and another outside the
building¶s garage. They, however, are not our targets, as they are too well protected.
The department¶s bomb squad and its emergency services unit will use two others.
They will supplement numerous belt-worn radiation detectors that policeman will wear.6
This might present a problem if every policeman gets one, and would call for the
employment of a decoy such as a cancer patient treated with radioactive substances in
a car preceding the v, who will be stopped by the police while his Brothers get
through.7 Radiation Detectors are being installed in ports that are considered to be
targets of Islamist but we must remember that nuclear materials are more difficult to
detect if lead or other metal is used to shield them. For example, in July 2004, a
container that housed a small amount of radioactive material8 passed through radiation
detection equipment that American Department Of Energy had installed at one of the
ports it has completed without being detected due to the presence of the large amounts
of scrap metal in the same container. The host country¶s government later received
information about the container, which led to the discovery of the radioactive source.
The host country¶s government raised concerns that the radiation detection equipment
did not register an alarm during a scan of the container and asked Department Of
Energy to investigate the incident. The Department Of Energy national laboratory
experts determined that the radiation detection equipment had been set to program
requirements. As a result, Department Of Energy national laboratory officials and the
host country¶s government decided not to alter the settings of the radiation detection
equipment.

Another technical challenge for America is to detect and identify low-level

radiation sources in the presence of high background radiation levels. Detecting actual
cases of our trafficking in weapons-usable nuclear material is complicated because one
of the materials of greatest concern in terms of proliferation² highly enriched
uranium²is amongst the most difficult materials to detect due to its relatively low level
of radioactivity. Uranium emits only gamma radiation so the radiation detection
equipment, which contains gamma and neutron detectors, will only detect uranium from
the gamma detector. Plutonium emits both gamma and neutron radiation. However,

This particular radioactive isotope is commonly used for medical practices as cancer treatment and commercially for the
sterilization of food products. Sufficient amounts of this material could be used by a terrorist to construct a ³dirty bomb.´
shielding of nuclear material does not prevent the detection of neutron radiation and, as
a result, plutonium can be detected by neutron detectors regardless of the amount of
shielding. Only a few materials can cause a neutron alarm - while a gamma alarm can
be caused by a variety of sources including commercial goods such as bananas,
ceramic tiles and fertilizer and nuclear materials, such as plutonium and uranium.9

The Department of Homeland Security has sponsored research efforts designed

to improve the detection capabilities of the currently fielded portal monitors and to
provide them with the ability to distinguish radiological sources. For example, Pacific
Northwest National Laboratory researched, developed, and tested a new software-
known as "energy windowing"- to address the currently-fielded portal monitors' inability
to distinguish between radiological materials. Energy-windowing is supposed to identify
and screen out material,    
    that cause nuisance alarms and
thereby reduce the number of such alarms at cargo screening facilities, while also
improving the portal monitor's sensitivity to identify nuclear material of concern. In tests
involving some common, unshielded radiation sources, such as cobalt-57 and barium-
153, the new software has shown improved detection and discrimination capabilities.
However, during scenarios that target other common, shielded threat sources - such as
those that might be used in a shielded radiological dispersal device or nuclear weapon -
the software has been less able to detect and discriminate. ! " 

 
       
  "

In October 2005, the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office completed the first round
of comprehensive testing of spectroscopic portal monitors at its test bed at the Nevada
Test Site. The Domestic Nuclear Detection Office tested 10 spectroscopic portal
monitors against 3 currently fielded monitors in 7,000 test runs involving the portal
monitors' ability to detect a variety of radiological materials under many different, cargo
configurations. According to senior Domestic Nuclear Detection Office officials who
supervised these tests, preliminary analysis of test data indicated that the spectroscopic
portal monitors' performance demonstrated somewhat mixed results. Spectroscopic
portal monitors outperformed currently fielded equipment in detecting numerous small,
medium-sized, and threat-like radioactive objects, and were able to identify and dismiss
most naturally occurring radioactive material. However, as the amount of source
material declined in size, the detection capabilities of both types of portal monitors
converged. Allah! We will smuggle a little bit of radioactive material at a time!

The second new technology is "high-Z detection," which is designed to better

detect high atomic number (high-Z) materials - such as Special Nuclear Material (SNM)
- and shielding materials - such as lead - that could be used to shield gamma radiation
from portal monitors. The Cargo Advanced Automated Radiography System program
within the Domestic Nuclear Detection Office is intended to develop the technologies
necessary for automated detection of high-Z material. The Domestic Nuclear Detection
Office envisions using the advanced portal monitor technology for the detection of lightly
shielded nuclear threats and radiological dispersal devices, and using Cargo Advanced
Automated Radiography System technology for the detection of high-Z materials.

9
. Page 22 GAO-05-375 Preventing Nuclear Smuggling
 The third new technology is "active interrogation," which is designed to better
detect nuclear material, especially shielded sources, and the Domestic Nuclear
Detection Office expects it to play a role further in the future than advanced portal
monitors and the Cargo Advanced Automated Radiography System. DHS and DOE are
supporting research at DOE national laboratories, such as Los Alamos and Lawrence
Livermore, to develop these systems. Active interrogation systems probe or
"interrogate" containers with neutron or gamma rays to induce additional radiation
emissions from radioactive material within the container. According to the Domestic
Nuclear Detection Office, these systems are too large and costly to consider for current
use. In addition, because these systems emit radiation, care will have to be taken to
ensure personnel safety before any deployments are made.10 God is Great and the
Americans will be contaminating themselves rather than al-Qaeda doing it for them.

Benn H. Tannenbaum, a physicist and nuclear terrorism expert at the American

Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, said that a proposed
system to ring New York City with radiation detectors would never create anything close
to an impenetrable barrier, particularly for a nuclear bomb, since the physical properties
of uranium, including the highly enriched uranium (HEU) that would be used to construct
a nuclear weapon, are such that shielded uranium is very likely to escape detection by
passive radiation monitors. He said the current detectors could be improved by
increasing the sampling time, decreasing the distance between the container and the
detector, decreasing the background radiation through additional shielding around the
detector, and adding collimators to the detectors. An Ohio-based company has
proposed inexpensive detectors that would be placed in cargo containers during
transoceanic shipment. These detectors take advantage of the 10-day or longer transit
time to locate HEU.11 The DOE is creating radiological maps of major U.S. cities. In the
event of a dirty-bomb threat, if a city had a completed survey, DOE could then conduct
a new survey and compare baseline radiation data from the previous survey to identify
locations with new sources of radiation. Focusing their attention on these new locations,
law enforcement officials may be able to locate a nuclear or radiological device more
quickly. In 2005, the New York City Police Department (NYPD) asked DOE to conduct a
survey of the New York City metro area. NYPD officials were aware that DOE had the
capability to measure background radiation and locate hot spots by helicopter because
DOE used this capability at the World Trade Center site in the days following
September 11, 2001. According to NYPD officials, the aerial background radiation
survey exceeded their expectations and NYPD officials said that in the course of
conducting the survey, they identified over 80 locations with unexplained radiological
sources.

Helicopters are the most efficient way to locate RDDs. While backpacks and
other hand-held equipment can detect and identify devices with greater accuracy,
vehicle and helicopter-mounted radiation detectors allow DOE to cover a greater area in
a shorter amount of time² which is particularly important when the exact location of a

device is unknown and the teams need to search a large area. Even if DOE were
provided with helicopters, DOE does not have spare radiation detectors like those found
on its own helicopters, and even if it did have spares, it would not have time to mount
radiation detectors on the exterior of the aircraft. DOE officials told us that radiation
detectors, like those found on their vehicles, could be placed inside an airplane or
helicopter, but the ability to measure contamination would be significantly reduced
compared with an exterior-mounted detector.

There is nothing preventing American-based jihadi from conducting it¶s own

radiological mapping of a city using a sensitive Geiger counter to locate material
necessary to construct and RDD.12

As part of a test operation conducted from July 2005 through December 2005, an
investigator for the General Accountability Administration purchased a small quantity of
a common radioactive isotope (most probably technetium) and one container used to
store and transport the material from a commercial source over the telephone by posing
as an employee of a fictitious company and stating that the purpose of his purchase
was to use the radioactive sources to calibrate personal radiation detection pagers.
Anyone can purchase small quantities of radioactive sources for stockpiling because
suppliers are not required to exercise due diligence to determine whether the buyer has
a legitimate use for the radioactive sources and suppliers are not required to ask the
buyer to produce an NRC document when making purchases in small quantities.

The GAO then deployed investigators to the field to make simultaneous border
crossings at the northern and southern borders in an attempt to transport radioactive
sources into the United States. The radiation portal monitors properly signaled the
presence of radioactive material when the investigators conducted simultaneous border
crossings. The investigators¶ vehicles were inspected in accordance with most of the
CBP policy at both the northern and southern borders. However, the investigators, using
counterfeit documents, were able to enter the United States with enough radioactive
sources in the trunks of their vehicles to make two dirty bombs, although the NRC
disputed this. The GAO determined the Customs Border Patrol inspectors did not
exercise due diligence to determine the authenticity of paperwork. The GAO undercover
agents were able to successfully represent themselves as employees of a fictitious
company and present a counterfeit bill of lading and a counterfeit NRC document during
the secondary inspections at both locations. The CBP inspectors never questioned the
authenticity of the investigators¶ counterfeit bill of lading or the counterfeit NRC
document authorizing them to receive, acquire, possess, and transfer radioactive
sources. The GAO investigation also tested whether an NRC document could be
counterfeited using data easily accessible and available to the public. The GAO
produced counterfeit documents before sending its two teams of investigators out to the
field. It found two NRC documents and a few examples of the documents by searching

12
. http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d061015.pdf
the Internet.13 The GAO subsequently used commercial, off-the-shelf computer software
to produce two counterfeit NRC documents authorizing the individual to receive,
acquire, possess, and transfer radioactive sources. A GAO graphic artist designed a
logo for the fictitious company and produced a bill of lading using computer software.

On December 14, 2005, GAO investigators placed two containers of radioactive

sources into the trunk of their rental vehicle. GAO investigators ± acting in an
undercover capacity ± drove to an official port of entry between Canada and the United
States. They also had in their possession a counterfeit bill of lading and a counterfeit
NRC document. At the primary checkpoint, the GAO investigators were signaled to
drive through the radiation portal monitors and to meet the CBP inspector at the booth
for their primary inspection. As the GAO investigators drove past the radiation portal
monitors and approached the primary checkpoint booth, they observed the CBP
inspector look down and reach to his right side of his booth. The GAO investigators
assumed that the radiation portal monitors had activated and signaled the presence of
radioactive sources. The CBP inspector asked the GAO investigators for identification
and asked them where they lived. One of the GAO investigators on the two-man
undercover team handed the CBP inspector both of their passports and told him that he
lived in Maryland while the second investigator told the CBP inspector that he lived in
Virginia. The CBP inspector also asked the GAO investigators to identify what they were
transporting in their vehicle. One of the GAO investigators told the CBP inspectors that
they were transporting radioactive sources for the specialized equipment. The CBP
inspector in the primary checkpoint booth appeared to be writing down the information.
The GAO investigators were then directed to park in a secondary inspection zone, while
the CBP inspector conducted further inspections of the vehicle. During the secondary
inspection, the GAO investigators told the CBP inspector that they had an NRC
document and a bill of lading for the radioactive sources. The CBP inspector asked if he
could make copies of the GAO investigators¶ counterfeit bill of lading on letterhead
stationery as well as their counterfeit NRC document. Although the CBP inspector took
the documents to the copier, the GAO investigators did not observe him retrieving any
copies from the copier. The GAO investigators watched the CBP inspector use a
handheld Radiation Isotope Identifier Device to examine the investigators¶ vehicle. He
told the GAO investigators that he had to perform additional inspections. After
determining that the investigators were not transporting additional sources of radiation,
the CBP inspector made copies of the GAO investigators¶ drivers¶ licenses, returned
their drivers¶ licenses to them, and the GAO investigators were then allowed to enter the
United States. At no time did the CBP inspector question the validity of the counterfeit
bill of lading or the counterfeit NRC document.

On December 14, 2005, the GAO investigators placed two containers of

radioactive sources into the trunk of their vehicle. The GAO investigators drove to an
official port of entry at the southern border. They also had in their possession a
counterfeit bill of lading and a counterfeit NRC document. At the primary checkpoint, the
GAO two-person undercover team was signaled by means of a traffic light signal to
drive through the radiation portal monitors and stopped at the primary checkpoint for

13
. http://www.appliedhealthphysics.com/nrc%20license%2037-14600-01.pdf
their primary inspection. As the GAO investigators drove past the portal monitors and
approached the primary checkpoint, they observed that the CBP inspector remained in
the primary checkpoint for several moments prior to approaching our investigators¶
vehicle. The GAO investigators assumed that the radiation portal monitors had activated
and signaled the presence of radioactive sources. The CBP inspector asked the GAO
investigators for identification and asked them if they were American citizens. The GAO
investigators told the CBP inspector that they were both American citizens and handed
him their state-issued drivers¶ licenses. The CBP inspector also asked our investigators
about the purpose of their trip to Mexico and asked whether they were bringing anything
into the United States from Mexico. The GAO investigators told the CBP inspector that
they were returning from a business trip in Mexico and were not bringing anything into
the United States from Mexico. While the GAO investigators remained inside their
vehicle, the CBP inspector used what appeared to be a Radiation Isotope Identifier
Device to scan the outside of the vehicle. One of the GAO investigators told him that
they were transporting specialized equipment. The CBP inspector asked one of the
GAO investigators to open the trunk of the rental vehicle and to show him the
specialized equipment. The GAO investigator told the CBP inspector that they were
transporting radioactive sources in addition to the specialized equipment. During the
secondary inspection, the CBP inspector said he needed to verify the type of material
the GAO investigators were transporting, and another CBP inspector approached with
what appeared to be a Radiation Isotope Identifier Device to scan the cardboard boxes
where the radioactive sources was placed. The instrumentation confirmed the presence
of radioactive sources. When asked again about the purpose of their visit to Mexico,
one of the GAO investigators told the CBP inspector that they had used the radioactive
sources in a demonstration designed to secure additional business for their company.
The CBP inspector asked for paperwork authorizing them to transport the equipment to
Mexico. The GAO investigators provided the counterfeit bill of lading on letterhead
stationery, as well as their counterfeit NRC document. The CBP inspector took the
paperwork provided by the GAO investigators and walked into the CBP station. He
returned several minutes later and returned the paperwork. At no time did the CBP
inspector question the validity of the counterfeit bill of lading or the counterfeit NRC
document.14

None-the-less, even with help from the GAO, under these new repressive
conditions al-Qaeda may need a substance that can be stolen or diverted by our
sleeper agents in America, and not be so easily detected. Raed Hijazi, who was part of
the millennium plot to strike Los Angeles airport confessed that he was associated with
Nabil al-Marabh, who had obtained a license to haul trucks with hazardous material. In
the fall of 2002 the government arrested 22 men who had similar licenses.15 Dumping
hazardous waste in Midtown Manhattan would cause temporary chaos. The Domestic
Security Enhancement Act of 2003 contained this provision: ³Distribution of Ä

preventing or responding to accidental or chemical releases. However, the revised

Abu Zubaydah gave up Jose Padilla a.k.a. Abdullah al-Muhajhr as someone al-
Qaeda had chosen to aid in the construction of an RDD. Another captured fighter
corroborated Zubaydah¶s information. The United States Justice Department admited:

It is believed that these confidential sources have not been

completely candid about their association with al-Qaeda and their
terrorist activities. Much of the information from these sources,
has, however, been corroborated and proven accurate and
reliable. Some information provided by these sources remains
uncorroborated and may be part of an effort to mislead or confuse
U.S. officials. One of the sources, for example, in a subsequent
interview with a U.S. law enforcement official recanted some of
the information he had provided, but most of this information has been
independently corroborated by other sources. In addition, at the time of
being interviewed by U.S. officials, one of the sources was being treated
with various types of drugs to treat medical conditions.

In other words, truth serum was used on one of these Brothers, in violation of the
Geneva Convention!16 The story of how Jose Padilla came to al-Qaeda mirrors that of
many young Hispanics who find that Islam is the only way they can avoid ending up on
the dead end of the road of life ± prison or a minimum wage job at a fast food restaurant
flipping non-Halal burgers. Look at the fate of Jose Padilla¶s half-brother, Ilan Ojeda, 24.
He is in a Florida jail on an attempted murder charge after being arrested, one week
before his brother¶s May 8, 2002 arrest, for allegedly stabbing a man with a pair of
scissors during a fight outside a convenience store.17

When Jose Padilla was sixteen he helped a friend commit a senseless murder in
Chicago and was sentenced to three years in a juvenile home. He was released on his
18th birthday. Jose Padilla joined the Maniac Latin Disciples gang who obtain their main
financial support through the sale and distribution of cocaine, crack cocaine, and heroin.
He was arrested on weapons charges several times. He jumped bail, moved to Florida,

where he served a year in jail after a traffic dispute in which he fired a weapon at his
adversary. On probation he worked at a Taco Bell fast food restaurant where he met his
supervisor, Mohammad Javed Qureshi, a Muslim who vehemently denies having shown
him the path of submission.

None-the-less after this meeting, Jose Padilla attended the Darul Uloom Islamic
Institute in Pembroke Pines. Saudi-born Adnan G. el-Shukrijumah also attended this
mosque. Khalid Shaikh Mohammed identified el-Shukrijumah, 27, as a Brother who had
flight training in the United States about the same time as several September 11th
commandoes, but el-Shukrijumah left the United States in August 2001, weeks before
the September 11th Raids. The FBI has identified el-Shukrijumah as the Shaheed Ramzi
bin al-Shibh chose to replace him as a hijacker after Ramzi bin al-Shibh¶s visa
applications were repeatedly denied. Adnan was traveling with yet another man who the
FBI cannot locate.18 El-Shukrijumah was supposed to be on Flight 93, and this was why
it was one person short, with only four Brothers as opposed to the five-member teams
controlling the other three planes.19

There is no record that el-Shukrijumah left the country but he was spotted by a
single informant in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in 2002 disguised as a student at
McMaster University, which has 20,000 students and a 5-megawatt research reactor.
McMaster University has a significant number of Muslim students and an active chapter
of the Muslim Students Association.20 McMaster had complete confidence in the safety
and security of its reactor that was used for medical purposes and said that this was an
unsubstantiated allegation. The university had consulted with the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police, who also had no knowledge of el-
Shukrijumah having been anywhere near the reactor.21 El-Shukrijumah
was also alleged reported to have cased the Panama Canal.22 The FBI
has issued a five million dollar reward for the capture of Adnan El
Shukrijumah. Gulshair El Shukrijumah, 73, the father of Adnan El
Shukrijumah was once the Imam of the Abu Bakr Mosque where Clement Hampton-el
prayed. Gulshair El Shukrijumah testified during Hampton-el's pretrial hearings.23 The
Americans discovered that $19,200 in checks between December 2000 and January
2003 from the Saudi Embassy had been sent to Gulshair Muhammad al-Shukrijumah.24
Gulshair provided Islamist tutoring to Imram Mandhai, who, as stated, planned to
destroy the South Florida power grid.

 The Joint Committee on the September 11th Intelligence Debacle reported our
interest in students of nuclear science:

According to information obtained by the FBI after September 11th,

hijacker Marwan al-Shehhi was in contact with an individual (referred to as
µthe first individual¶ below) on the East Coast. [Intelligence reporting has
confirmed that a second individual, reportedly connected to the first
individual, was an associate of Atta¶s in college and that information in the
first individual¶s possession connected the first individual to Mohammed
Atta¶s sister]. The first individual has been the subject of an FBI
investigation since July 1999 and has ties to important al-Qaeda figures
and several organizations linked to al-Qaeda. The FBI is concerned that
this individual is in contact with several persons with expertise in nuclear
science.

Imram Mandhai was a friend of Adnan El Shukrijumah and Jose Padilla. Fast
food manager Mohammed Javed Qureshi said the Jose Padilla had discussed
converting to Islam with him and after that he saw Jose Padilla at the mosque of the
Islamic Center of South Florida in Pompano Beach.25 The Islamic Center of South
Florida provides advice to the American Muslim Association of North America.26

Conspirator List. In 1994 Jose Padilla converted to Islam along with his wife, Cherie
Maria Stultz at the al-Iman Mosque in Sunrise, Florida, under the supervision of Raed
Awad, the former Florida fundraiser for the Holy Land Foundation.27

Adham A. Hassoun, 40, was arrested and is being held at Krome INS Detention
Center, as an associate of Jose Padilla. Hassoun was listed as the Florida registered
agent of Benevolence International Foundation. An immigration judge found that
Hassoun had plotted to commit an assassination, provided material support to so-called
terrorist groups, and had been a member of an Islamist group headed by

. Hassoun was listed as the North American and United States distributor
of the Islamic Magazine, Nida µul Islam (Call to Islam), a militant publication that has
published articles on Jihad, the Taliban, as well as interviews with the Osama bin
Laden, Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman and officials from Jama¶a Islamia and Sudan¶s
National Islamic Front.28 In the early 1990s, Sheikh Rahman's telephone was tapped,
and Mr. Hassoun and Dr. Jayyousi, a Jordanian-born American citizen who holds a
doctorate in civil engineering, came to the government's attention through phone calls to
or from his line. Then the government, under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act,
began to eavesdrop on them, which eventually pulled Mr. Padilla into their net, too. The
conversations contained coded language such as ''getting some fresh air,'' ''participating

going on ''picnics'' in order ''to smell fresh air and to eat cheese'' or using $3,500 to buy
''zucchini.'' In one phone call, the two men talked about a dream. It appeared to be the
dream that Padilla, according to his relatives, cites as having played a crucial role in
inspiring him to convert to Islam: the vision of a man in a turban, surrounded by the
swirling dust of a desert. Hassoun brought it up and told Mr. Padilla that he himself had
experienced the same vision. ''What do you mean you saw the same dream?'' Padilla ''I
saw the dream of the uh person with the turban,'' Mr. Hassoun said. Mr. Hassoun
explained how, in his dream, the turban was wrongly wrapped and so he thought the
man might be a spy, in which case, he was prepared ''to split his body apart.'' But then,
he said, he understood that ''the brother was a good one.'' ''Yeah?'' Padilla said. One
tape refers to Padilla as being ''in the area of Usama,'' which the government takes to
mean that he was near Osama bin Laden.29

In 1997 Adham Hassoun, then a computer programmer in Broward County,

Florida proposed a road trip to Jose Padilla. The excursion to Tampa would be his treat,
Mr. Hassoun said, and a chance to meet ''some nice, uh, brothers.'' Padilla, 36
equivocated as Hassoun exhorted. ''We take the whole family and have a blast«We go
to, uh, our Busch Gardens, you know You won't regret it. Money-back guarantee.''
Padilla, laughing, suggested that they not discuss the matter over the phone. ''Why?''
Mr. Hassoun said. ''We're going to Busch Gardens. What's the big deal!'' In another
conversation in the summer of 1997 Hassoun asked, ''You're ready, right?'' and Padilla
said, ''God willing, brother, it's going to happen soon.'' In January 2004 a federal
indictment, released in federal court in West Palm Beach, accused Hassoun of illegally
possessing a Smith & Wesson 9 mm pistol and with being a member of Al-Gama¶a al-
Islamiyya.30

In 1998 Padilla moved to Egypt. He visited Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan where
he met with Abu Zubaydah who sent him to a safehouse in Lahore, Pakistan for training
in 1999. Jose Padilla and his associate conducted research in the construction of a
³uranium-enhanced´ explosive device, or RDD, within the United States, possibly in
Washington, D.C. The plan included stealing radioactive material for the bomb within
the United States. In 2002 at Zubaydah¶s direction, Jose Padilla traveled to Karachi,
Pakistan and met with Ammar Al-Baluchi and others to discuss the dirty bomb plan and
other operations including the detonation of bombs in hotel rooms, train stations and
gas stations. It was suggested that Jose Padilla enter the United States via Mexico or
Puerto Rico, rent apartments in a New York City high-rise and use its natural cooking
gas supply to blow it to pieces. This was more in line with Jose Padilla¶s abilities. During
his interrogation by the CIA, Zubaydah dismissed Padilla as a maladroit extremist
whose hope to construct a dirty bomb, using conventional explosives to disperse
radioactive materials was far-fetched. He said Padilla was ignorant on the subject of
nuclear physics and believed he could separate plutonium from nuclear material by
rapidly swinging over his head a bucket filled with fissionable material. Yet why would
he assign such a man this mission? Zubaydah was misleading his captors. Padilla told

Hassoun during a 1999 conversation from Egypt, that he had asked his ex-wife in the
United States to arrange for him to receive an army jacket, a book bag and a sleeping
bag, supplies that he had requested because ''there was a rumor here that the door was
open somewhere.'' Padilla told Hassoun in April 2000 that he would need a
recommendation to ''connect me with the good brothers, with the right faith'' if he were
to travel to Yemen.

On May 8, 2002 the FBI arrested Jose Padilla. We do not know if he has
subsequently co-operated or not. At first Jose Padilla was allowed to consult with an
attorney but later he was forbidden from doing so for fear that he might attempt to
communicate with his Brothers on the outside through the attorney, as Sheik Omar
Abdul Rahman did. Judge Mukasey objected to this violation of Jose Padilla¶s
Constitutional rights:

The concern that Jose Padilla would or could use his counsel to
unwittingly pass information if counsel is allowed to consult with him is
pure speculation. It is contradicted by the facts of this case. Counsel for
Jose Padilla had knowledge of the allegations contained in the application
for the material witness warrant, most of which was later publicized in the
Mobbs Declaration (a two-page affidavit filed by the Defense Department
on behalf of one Michael H. Mobbs, identified as a special adviser to the
under secretary of defense for policy Douglas Feith, a prime generator of
Iraqi War Propaganda). His counsel did not leak this information. Jose
Padilla was also shown this information. Defense counsel did speak to the
press and there was no attempt by Jose Padilla to use counsel to pass
any information. Jose Padilla has now been in solitary confinement for
over five months. At this point the only information that Jose Padilla could
possibly have to pass on to al-Qaeda is how to sleep with the lights on.

The Respondents [the Government] base their speculation on the

following passage from an al-Qaeda manual: µTake advantage of visits to
communicate with Brothers outside prison and exchange information that
may be helpful to them in their work outside prison [according to what
occurred during the investigations]. The importance of mastering the art of
hiding messages is self evident here.¶ The manual is an English
translation of an Arabic document that was recovered in England. The
document was translated and was to be used as an Exhibit in the
Embassy Bombing trial. There is no evidence that an English version of
this document existed until the United States Government posted it on the
Internet. Nor is there evidence that Jose Padilla ever saw this manual in
any language or that he received any such training.

More importantly the Respondents do not even suggest what possible

information Jose Padilla could possibly have after months of solitary
confinement. If Jose Padilla had any information to pass, it would have
been passed long ago. There is no evidence that he either had any
 information to pass on or that he manipulated counsel to unwittingly pass
on information. There is no reason to believe that Jose Padilla received
any training or instruction on how to send coded messages. There is no
evidence that Jose Padilla has the ability to learn a complex code and it is
doubtful that he could, due to his limited education. Nor is there any
evidence that Jose Padilla, who is not alleged to be a member of al-Qaeda
or to have any contacts in the United States, would have anyone to pass a
message to« I have read both the Mobbs Declaration and the Sealed
Mobbs Declaration, the latter only for the purpose of assessing the
government¶s access to counsel argument; the government¶s conjecture
is, on the facts presented to me in those documents, gossamer
speculation. Although the government presents facts showing that Jose
Padilla had contact with and was acting on behalf of al-Qaeda, there is
nothing to indicate that Jose Padilla in particular was trained to transmit
information in the way the government suggests, or that he had
information to transmit.31

Brother Jose Padilla was never given the attorney of his choice, not the court-
appointed Jew Donna Newman, but someone sympathetic to our cause. Newman is not
a Lynne Stewart and is defending Jose Padilla because: ³If someone in this country can
disappear based on a suspicion, without any real evidence, if someone can be held
incommunicado and denied access to a lawyer, what is to keep us from becoming like
Argentina during the military dictatorship?´ In the same ruling Judge Mukasey stated
Jose Padilla could be held as an enemy combatant, however, Jose Padilla could
immediately appeal this ruling. Newman met with Padilla on March 4, 2004, but was
only allowed to inform him of efforts being made on his behalf.

The United States Government asked Judge Mukasey to reconsider his

determination on the basis of a sealed declaration of Vice Admiral Lowell E. Jacoby
United States Navy that contends that granting Jose Padilla access to counsel risks
compromising their efforts to obtain intelligence from Jose Padilla, a source they
indicate that ³may well have information´ about the identity of al-Qaeda associates, here
and overseas, and information concerning the nature of further attacks against United
States citizens and interests.

The Jacoby Declaration, what Jose Padilla¶s lawyers or ³next friends´ were
allowed to see, was a nine page document that addressed in the first six pages his
qualifications and generally the role and mission of the Defense Intelligence Agency, the
intelligence process, interrogation techniques and the use of interrogations in the War
on Terrorism. In the remaining two and half pages, Jacoby asserted: 1) the President
has declared Jose Padilla an enemy combatant; 2) Jose Padilla has been implicated in
several plots to carry out attacks against the United States; 3) a summary of the
unclassified Michael H. Mobbs Declaration which was submitted with Respondents¶
Brief, and 4) that Jose Padilla potentially could have information relating to future
attacks on the United States, the identities and whereabouts of other al-Qaeda

31
. USDC SDNY 02-CIV-4445
operatives here and elsewhere, information regarding al-Qaeda¶s operations, methods,
recruitment, planning, training, infrastructure, and its potential nuclear capabilities.

This was all Jose Padilla¶s attorneys were allowed to see, however the
government filed under seal an ' $  classified version of the Jacoby Declaration
using the same procedure as in they did in the filing of the two versions of the Mobbs
Declarations. Since Jose Padilla¶s attorneys could not see the information in these
sealed documents, they could not offer any arguments refuting the information they
contained, so Judge Mukasey had to rely on the veracity of the United States
Government.

Jacoby suggested Jose Padilla's information was possibly ³time-sensitive and

perishable´ and if there was a delay in obtaining this information there was a risk that
³whatever information Jose Padilla may eventually provide will be outdated.´ Finally,
Jacoby opined that permitting counsel to meet with Jose Padilla might lead Padilla to
believe his counsel could successfully obtain his release with the result that Padilla
might delay in providing information and that such a meeting could possibly result in a
break in the relationship that may have developed between Padilla and his
interrogators.´ This, according to Jacoby, could possibly harm America¶s national
security interest because it is unlikely that Jose Padilla will be willing to co-operate if he
believes an attorney will intercede in his detention.

Judge Mukasey ultimately ruled that Jose Padilla was entitled to legal
representation and that ³If, after Jose Padilla has had an opportunity to contest the
unsealed Mobbs Declaration, I find that the government has failed to meet the evidence
standard, I will decide whether to consider the sealed document. At that point I will have
two options: (1) I could find that it was impermissible to use the sealed document
without giving Jose Padilla access to it, in which case the government will have the
option of withdrawing the submission; or (2) I could consider the sealed document 
. Before Jose Padilla has disputed any facts, it would be premature to choose
between these options.´ The U.S. Government appealed Judge Mukasey¶s order on the
basis of national security and jurisdiction.

In December 2003 Jose Padilla was the recipient of another favorable ruling, this
time by the Federal Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.32 Since he had been
arrested in America and not on a battlefield ³Padilla¶s detention was not authorized by
Congress, and absent such authorization, the President does not have the power under
Article II of the Constitution to detain as an enemy combatant an American citizen
seized on American soil.´ The court issued a writ of habeas corpus directing Secretary
Rumsfeld to release Padilla from military custody within 30 days, ³at which point the
government can act within its legislatively conferred authority to take further action. For
example, Padilla can be transferred to the appropriate civilian authorities who can bring
criminal charges against him. If appropriate, he can also be held as a material witness
in connection with grand jury proceedings.´ In a dissenting opinion Judge Wesley
observed that the majority opinion entailed the ³startling conclusion´ that the ³President

32
. http://news.findlaw.com/hdocs/docs/padilla/padrums121803opn.pdf
would be without any authority to detain a terrorist citizen dangerously close to a violent
or destructive act on U.S. soil unless Congress declared the area in question a zone of
combat
authorized the detention.´

Bush the Younger had Jose Padilla transferred to civilian

authorities rather than risk a confrontation with the Supreme Court. All
shades of  political opinion, from the Christian conservative
Rutherford Institute to the atheistic People for the American Way, had
pressured the Supreme Court to rule for Padilla. They all signed on to
this   brief, ³while proceedings were pending before the District
Court, the Executive branch abruptly ordered military personnel to enter
the Bureau of Prisons facility where Padilla was detained. They entered,
seized Padilla, and transported him to a military brig. He has remained locked in the brig
ever since, barred from asserting his innocence or communicating with his lawyer or
family in any way. Except for his captors, no one has any idea what has happened to
Padilla within the brig. The executive actions challenged here directly violated 18 U.S.C.
§4001(a), an express congressional directive forbidding the Executive from detaining
American citizens without specific statutory authorization. As this brief will demonstrate,
Congress has given no such specific authorization to detain here.

The prohibition in §4001(a) did not arise by happenstance. It echoes the

fundamental ban against indefinite executive detention set forth in the very
structure of our Constitution. The Framers deliberately vested the
Legislature with the power to make law, and denied to the Executive any
unilateral authority to determine when people may be detained indefinitely
without charge. The Constitution gives the Legislature - and only the
Legislature - power to determine when, if ever, extraordinary
circumstances authorize the fundamentally intrusive power of detention
without charge. Judicial precedents have long denied to the Executive any
power to invade individual liberty without specific congressional approval.

The brief went on to cite an 1866 case entitled !  4 ()) ³Like Padilla
Milligan was a citizen suspected of grave and treasonous crimes: conspiring to seize
U.S. weapons, liberate enemy prisoners of war, kidnap elected officials, and raise a
Northern army to join with the Confederacy in destroying the United States. But the
gravity of the emergency precipitated by Milligan and his comrades did not increase the
Executive's power. Even during the Civil War, the division between Executive and
Legislative powers remained the same, "no matter how great an offender the individual
may be, or how much his crimes may have shocked the sense of justice of the country,
or endangered its safety." Like every other citizen not taking part in active hostilities and
not apprehended in a State governed by martial law, Milligan could not be detained
without trial. The Executive was constitutionally required to charge him with violations of
Congress's laws, in an ordinary court.´34 In April 2006 the Supreme Court refused the

hear Padilla¶s complaint about his illegal detention by the military and his imprisonment
was held to be legal.

There is but one God, and He has blinded these disbelievers and prevented the
thought from even crossing their minds that the stakes for them are infinitely higher now
than in the time of the American Civil War, and are growing higher day by day as
technical knowledge becomes available to us, despite the efforts of the West to prevent
al-Qaeda from obtaining it. A cell of perhaps twenty v, some versed in microbiology,
can wipe out thousands of enemy soldiers or hundreds of thousands of so-called
civilians. What can twenty such cells do? Milligan had rifles, pistols, cannons, dynamite
and other primitive weapons at his disposal ± how much damage could he and his
insurgents have done? Did he have an RDD? Did he have a microbiological lethal agent
other than smallpox infected blankets that had not been given to the Indians? While the
Americans ponder the ³Human Right´ of habeas corpus and the right to counsel, they
forget that there can be no ³Human Rights´ without ³Human Beings.´ Their strict
adherence to the noble ideals of their past will mire their judgment until we strike in
earnest, then they will look back at their adherence to these noble ideals only from the
perspective of the grave.

Yasser Esam Hamdi, an American citizen, was captured by the Northern Alliance
during a battle in Afghanistan with the Taliban then turned over to the Americans. He
was clearly an enemy combatant, and proud to be one. Hamdi was denied access to
so-called due process and to an attorney. Instead he was placed in a military brig. The
same people he wished to destroy - the communistic National Lawyers Guild and the
Center For Constitutional Rights - along with numerous Jewish law professors and
attorneys, many from Yeshiva University¶s Law School, came to his aid, arguing that he
should be treated as a common criminal and not as a prisoner of war.35 These Jews,
through Hamdi¶s court appointed attorney who argued the case, moved to order the
American Secretary of Defense to ³cease all interrogations of Yaser Esam Hamdi, direct
or indirect, while this litigation was pending; order and declare that Hamdi is being held
in violation of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution; to
the extent Respondents contest any material factual allegations in the Petition, schedule
an evidentiary hearing, at which Petitioners may adduce proof in support of their
allegations and order that Petitioner Hamdi be released from Respondents¶ unlawful
custody.´

A similar issue arose during World War II in a case titled Ê, where the
petitioners were German agents who, after the declaration of war between the United
States and the German Reich, were trained at a German sabotage school where they
were instructed in the use of explosives and in methods of secret writing. The Nazis
then journeyed by submarine to the beaches of New York, carrying large quantities of
explosives and other sabotage devices. FBI agents apprehended all of them and
subsequently learned of their mission to destroy war industries and facilities in the
35

United States. All of the Nazis were born in Germany but had lived in the United States
at some point. One petitioner claimed American citizenship by virtue of the
naturalization of his parents during his youth. The Court, however, did not need to
determine his citizenship because it held that the due process guarantees of the Fifth
and Sixth Amendments of the United States Constitution were inapplicable in any event.
It noted that citizenship in the United States of an enemy belligerent does not relieve
him from the consequences of a belligerency that is unlawful. The petitioner who
alleged American citizenship was treated identically to the other German saboteurs.

Would these same law-monkeys have argued for the Nazi with American
citizenship to be released? They probably would have because they are fools who care
more for others rights than their own right to exist.

After loosing on an Appellate level the Hamdi case made its way to the Supreme
Court. It was argued that Hamdi was alleged to be an ³enemy combatant´ by the
Executive branch and allegedly seized within an area asserted to be a ³zone of active
combat.´ But left to the Executive branch, it was argued, the outlines of a ³zone of active
combat´ in the ³war on terrorism´ are without limit, so United States citizens residing in
the United States could be subject to the same type of detention.36 Rather than face a
challenge to their executive powers the administration of Bush the Younger released
Hamdi and he is now in Saudi Arabia with his family. Under the terms of his release, he
was to renounce his U.S. citizenship and never travel to Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel,
Pakistan, Syria, the West Bank or Gaza. He is also required to report any intent to travel
outside Saudi Arabia for the next 15 years.

During the Middle Ages the Jews poisoned the wells of the populace they lived
amongst. Their treachery did not end there. In the 1940¶s the Zionists planned to poison
innocent Germans with sodium cyanide. Abba Kovner, the leader of a group called DIN,
a Hebrew acronym for Avenging Israel¶s Blood felt that any German ± man, woman, or
child ± was a legitimate target for revenge, and planned to poison the water supplies of
several German cities and prisoner camps where elite Nazi Gestapo and SS troops
were being held. Kovner¶s arrest and the confiscation of DIN¶s supplies of poison forced
the Zionists to set its sights on Stalag 13, where captured Nazi SS soldiers were being
held near Nuremberg, Germany. The Zionists contacts in the leather-making industry
supplied these Jewish terrorists with 40 pounds of arsenic, which they smuggled into
Germany. German troops almost exclusively ate black rye bread. DIN planned to coat
the bottom of black rye loaves with an arsenic and glue mixture. The three DIN
members who infiltrated the Stalag 13 bakery on April 13, 1946 shielded themselves by
wearing gloves and protective glasses and used brushes to paint the bottom of the
bread loaves. They set out to poison fourteen thousand loaves of bread, but succeeded
in contaminating less than three thousand. Only two of the six arsenic-filled bottles that
DIN members smuggled into the camp were emptied. Four thousand three hundred
helpless prisoners fell ill, one thousand were hospitalized, and at least seven hundred

36

died or were paralyzed.37 Another DIN member, Solomon Morel, 83, is now being
accused of killing 1,500 inmates at the Swietochlowiche camp in Poland, and the Polish
Government is demanding his extradition from the Zionist entity on charges of genocide.
Israel has of course refused to give up this mass murderer.

Arsenic is not a very deadly poison. The Zionists did not know of ricin, a protein
toxin found in the seeds of castor bean plants. The toxin has no known antidote and is
approximately two hundred times more potent than cyanide. Death results after several
days of suffering. Ricin breaks down in the system shortly after death, making it
impossible to trace in the body. It was used in several assassinations during the Cold
War. To produce ricin all an al-Qaeda cell requires are beans of the castor plant, lye,
(which is easily obtainable) and acetone that is available in artists supply stores and
hardware stores. In 2003 the seeds could obtained by the kilogram from Henry Field¶s
Seed38or J.L. Hudson, Seedsman but now are only sold by the packet.39 Remember, all

After the Zionist became more advanced Mossad agents carrying

Canadian passports used ³medical chemical weapons´ in attempting
to assassinate Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal in Amman in 1997.
These assassins possessed a bulb concealed in the palm of their
hand that, when it is squeezed, caused a powerful chemical nerve
agent to squirt through a nozzle protruding from the clenched fingers
of the agent¶s fist. The attempt on Mashaal¶s life failed when, instead of spraying the
toxin into his ear, from where it should have traveled to the brain, causing hemorrhage
and death within six to eighteen hours, the poison struck his neck and collar. King
Hussein demanded that the Zionist government provide the antidote that saved

Mashaal¶s life. The Zionists had to release the late Sheik Yassin and many other
prisoners to effectuate the release of their agents.40 In July 2006 Justice Minister Haim
Ramon said that Mashaal was a target for assassination due to his ordering of the
kidnapping of an Israeli soldier named Shalit. "He is definitely in our sights ... he is a
target," Ramon told Israel Army Radio. "Khaled Mashaal, as some who is overseeing,
actually commanding the terror acts, is definitely a target."41 After the Israeli plane
overflew Bashar Al-Assad¶s palace in Latakia, Syria, the fearless leader asked Khaled
Mashaal to leave Syria, where he had been based for many years. The hard-line Iranian
daily *

  wrote that Mashaal was now based in Iran.42

The Mossad made another attempt to use this poison that was exposed when
five of its agents were arrested in the Berne, Switzerland, in February 1998 trying to
install a wiretap in a building where the wife of Lebanese immigrant Abdallah el-Zein
lived. Brother Abdallah el-Zein ran an Ahl El-Beit center, part of an international chain
that promotes adherence to Shi¶ite Islam ± this center was, in reality, a front
organization for the Hizb¶allah. A suspicious neighbor, who, as fate would have it, was
an insomniac, called police to the building and a diplomatic bag containing wiretapping
tools was found. The bugging operation was a prelude to an assassination plot. The
Mossad agents were on a mission to assassinate two people suspected of helping the
Hizb¶allah in its attempt to acquire chemical and biological weapons. A Swiss Police
officer was quoted as saying: ³The Israeli spy [in Bern] was caught in possession of
suspicious objects, deadly aerosol sprays developed by Mossad chemists.´

At the trial, a Swiss police expert said investigators had been unable to prove
that the worldwide Ahl El-Beit network was connected to the Hizb¶allah. The Swiss did
not understand, that contrary to the majority of the Muslims and like the Catholic
Church, the Shi¶ites believe in a hierarchy of religious clergy with the Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei being the highest. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei wears a black turban signaling that
he is a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad. It as if he were the Pope and the holy
city of Qu¶am was the Vatican. The main voice and interpretation of religious and non-
religious matters is the opinion of the Ayatollah, the Imam, and the leader. The Imam in
Shi¶ite doctrine is Infallible, and must be obeyed. The Imam is the Ahl El-Beit, the
closest kin to the Prophet [PBUH]. If the Ayatollah supports the Hizb¶allah, so must all of
his followers, and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei most certainly supported this Army of God.43

The sly Mossad agents asked Abdallah el-Zein in court whether he could shed
any light on anti-Jewish attacks such as the July 1994 bombing of a Jewish community
center in Argentina that killed 86 people. Of course he said he could not. In July 2002, it
was revealed that a high-level traitor from Iran¶s intelligence agency who gave his name
as Abdolghassem Mesbahi, said that the Iranian government organized and carried out
the bombing and then paid Argentina¶s president at the time, Carlos Saúl Menem, an

into a numbered account that Menem had indicated,´ Mesbahi said, paid from a $200
million Swiss account controlled by Hashemi Rafsanjani, who was Iran¶s President at
the time, and by a son of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. In return Mesbahi said, Menem
agreed to ³make declarations that there was no evidence against Iran that it was
responsible and to loose or destroy evidence including material from the bomb site,
tapes of telephone calls and address books of suspects.´45 In March 2003 an Argentine
judge ordered arrest warrants for four Iranian intelligence agents46 who carried out this
operation but refused to issue a warrant for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The judge claimed
that armed units of the Hizb¶allah were also involved, though no Hizb¶allah member was
mentioned in the indictment.47 In November 2006 an Argentine judge ordered
international arrest warrants Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, and eight others in
connection with the 1994 event. The Swiss court found the Mossad agent, who was
allowed to use a pseudonym during the trial, guilty of political espionage, illegal acts for
a foreign state and entering the country under a false name, however the agent was
given a one-year suspended sentence.

We must fight fire with fire: Mohammed Farouq Abu Roub, a former junior officer
in Palestinian intelligence told his Zionist captors ³I was told to be ready to spread
poison in the major Israeli water pipelines, the River Jordan or the Lake of Galilee, I got
these instructions in Iraq, where I was given thousands of dollars to carry out mega-
attacks.´48 During the summer of 2001 an associate of two men indicted in Detroit in an
investigation of al-Qaeda did library research on a water system and animal-born
diseases, according to a librarian49 in Canton, Ohio. In April 2003 Jordanian authorities
arrested Iraqi agents who planned to poison the water supply that served American
troops near the border with Iraq. The intelligence officers tried to burn down the top-floor
executive lounge of the Grand Hyatt Amman Hotel with an improvised incendiary bomb,
but the hotel¶s sprinkler system put out of the flames.50

clothing and appearance (appearance of true religion), Ibn Taimia ± may Allah have
mercy on him ± said, ³If a Muslim is in a combat or godless area, he is not obligated to
have a different appearance from [those around him]. The [Muslim] man may prefer or
even be obligated to look like them.´

Hydroquinone is a bleaching agent found in many skin lightening products that,

after many applications, will make one look Caucasian. Kojic acid is a skin lightener

excellent results. Colored contact lenses that change eye color without a visual

tapes are available on accent elimination in which the student is guided through a self-
study program to replace his Middle Eastern or Asian accent of English, sound by

blue-eyed American is to infiltrate a crowd of Bush supporters who wish to shake the
President¶s hand, wearing this glove of instant death underneath a normal woolen
glove. No magnometer or sensory device will detect him; Alhumdulallah! Death to the
 leader! This proves to be more and more difficult as the people around the
President are often handpicked supporters or carefully screened.

A non-Arab convert to Islam, who has no traceable connection

to the Brotherhood of Islamists, can also be used in this operation, but
his loyalty must be proven. Caution: The American intelligence and
law enforcement agencies have started to use converts to entrap our
Brothers. One must also keep in mind the fact that some converts to
Islam evidence a degree of mental instability. For example convert

operation and charged with offering to supply al-Qaeda with
information was previously arrested on May 22, 1998 after police responded to a call of
a man with a firearm near an elementary school near Everett, Washington. Ryan had
previously made contact with skinhead elements over the Internet, despite the
numerous skinhead attacks on Muslims in Washington.52 Anderson received a sentence
of life in prison with the possibility of parole.

 Another use for this deadly substance: The operative coats his finger with
transparent nail polish or polyurethane. The deadly substance is placed in small jar
marked camphor and carried in the operative¶s pocket with the lid loosely on. The
operative enters an elevator in a United State Federal Courthouse. As he is entering he
puts his coated finger in the deadly substance, stands in front of the elevator buttons to
block any surveillance cameras and as he presses the elevator button leading to the
floor where the prosecutors carry out their work against Islam, he coats this button with
the deadly substance. He gets off the elevator at another floor and takes another

After the September 11th Raids three Brothers in New Jersey were indicted for
stealing hundreds of boxes of Kellogg¶s Rice Crispies in March 2000 and shipping them
to Kentucky in May 2000. Nasser Abuali, Hussein Abuali and Rabi Ahmed were
arrested then each released on $100,000 bail. No mention of terrorism was made in
their indictment and it was said that the FBI had enough information to arrest them prior
to September 11th.53 Perhaps another stolen cache of cereal might be turned into Ricin
Crispies?

Ansar al-Islam54 has taken a back seat to al-Qaeda in

Mesopotamia but deserves our attention none-the-less. Ansar al-
Islam was group in northern Iraq linked to Iran and al-Qaeda. Mullah
Krekar who called Usama bin Laden the ³jewel in the crown of the
Muslim nation´ is the leader of Ansar al-Islam. ³I have never met a
member of al-Qaeda,´ he said.55 Ansar al-Islam seized land from the
Kurdish autonomous government, near Iraq¶s northeastern border
with Iran and created a miniature version of the Taliban¶s Afghanistan, with an
estimated 650 fighters maintaining an Islamist society among about 8,000 believers.
The group was mostly composed of renegade Kurds. But about 150 of its members,
mostly Arabs, had trained in al-Qaeda-sponsored camps in Afghanistan.

The neo-conman Jew, William Safire, claimed the Ansar al-Islam Brothers
produced a form of cyanide cream that killed on contact and could be put on doorknobs
for assassination attempts and did so with the help of Iraq and al-Qaeda. According to

intercepted in Turkey on its way to cells in the West.56 This was nothing but a dirty
Jewish lie that contained some truth to make it credible. But all-and-all it was part of a
propaganda campaign to involve America in Iraqi War. Other atrocity stories had Ansar
al-Islam developing poison paints, ointments and poison-laced cigarettes but when the
occupation forces entered the Ansar al-Islam Sirat camp only samples of ricin and
botulinum were taken from the soles of a boot and a shoe recovered there. In January
2003 British police found laboratory equipment and traces of ricin in a flat given to
asylum seekers from Algeria. (Five hundred ³asylum seekers´ were allowed into Britain
in 1996 with minimum checks some of who were involved in a bombing campaign in
France. Most of the North African ³terror´ suspects arrested in Paris and Frankfurt
before Christmas 2002 had entered as asylum seekers). After 9/11 Krekar was placed
under arrest in Norway until he was freed for insufficient evidence, then re-arrested in
January 2004 for complicity in planning suicide attacks in Northern Iraq.57

Brother Abu Mussab al-Zarqawi, was the second in command of Ansar al-Islam
and was an expert in poisons and chemical weapons who trained one of the Brothers
stationed in Britain. Al-Zarqawi was involved in other attempted chemical attacks. Using
$170,000 al-Zarqawi sent him from Iraq, Azmi al-Jayousi and his Brothers purchased
trucks and structurally reinforced them, bought necessary chemicals and manufactured
part of them in a deserted house in a village near Irbid, then later in a warehouse near
Ramtha. "I envisioned the result after executing the work. According to my experience
as an explosives expert, the whole of the Intelligence Department would have been
totally destroyed, and nothing of it would have remained, nor anything surrounding it.
Destruction would have even reached far away areas," Jaiousi said. The plan included a
chemical-explosive cocktail and the American Embassy and other Jordanian
Government buildings would have been engulfed by VX gas, had this plan not been
uncovered by the Monarchists, although it was unclear if the Brothers had actually
produced this agent.58

Al-Zarqawi, whose parents were Palestinian, was born in 1966 in Zarqa, Jordan.
The  
  reported, ³Al-Zarqawi was a criminal before he was a v. He
was a wild young man, according to all who knew him, and have recounted his story in
the Arab media. He had no interest in religion. A high-school dropout, he had a
reputation for getting tattoos, drinking alcohol and getting into fights, and he ended up in
jail in the 1980's.´ This only shows the powers of Islam to transform evil to good. When
he was incarcerated as a teenager he memorized the Qu¶ran and was arrested in
Jordan for anti-Israeli activities.

Al-Zarqawi went on to fight against the Soviets in Afghanistan where he criticized

the Taliban for recognizing the United Nations and for not enforcing Shariah to its full

extent. In the early 1990¶s he returned to Jordan, where he was arrested due to his
affiliation with the Egyptian branch of Islamic Jihad. After King Hussein¶s death in 1999
a general amnesty was declared and he was released. He took a job in Pakistan,
working at an al-Qaeda front involved in the honey trade. Wounded during the American
invasion of Afghanistan, the Brother was allegedly in Baghdad in 2002 where he had his
leg amputated. Bricks of cyanide were found in a house in Iraq allegedly occupied by
one of al-Zarqawi¶s associates.59 Al-Zarqawi orchestrated the October 28, 2002 activity
in Amman, Jordan, in which two al-Qaeda v shot to death Laurence Foley, an
American diplomat, who worked for the CIA front, the Agency for International
Development. A deputy to Brother al-Zarqawi could not resist using his satellite phone
to call Foley¶s assassins to congratulate them and to tell them he was on his way to
meet with them. The Americans intercepted this communication and the fighter and his
associate were arrested.60 Jordan¶s Foreign Minister, Marwan Muashe, reported that the
two admitted to the killing and implicated al-Zarqawi, claiming he provided them with
machine guns, grenades and money to attack embassies and foreign diplomats. Al-
Zarqawi ordered the assassination of Kurdish61 officials.

Many suicide attacks against the occupational forces in Afghanistan were

launched by Ansar al-Islam including one by a mujahedeen who had lost his legs in the
fight against the Americans. During the American occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq
these fighters were forced to flee to Iran. They slipped back across the borders where
they attack the occupation forces or puppet government in an unending war. In Iraq
attacks on American forces have averaged more than a dozen a day and more
Americans have died than were killed during the ³hot´ phase of the war. After American
forces raided the Ansar al-Isam staging area they found a phone book containing
numbers of Islamists based in the United States and Europe as well as the number of a
Kuwaiti cleric and a letter from Yemen¶s minister of religion. Later Ansar al-Islam
changed its name to Al-Qaeda in Mesopotamia and al-Zarqawi¶s name became a
household word in the United States. On January 12, 2006 the Information Department
of al-Qaeda in Iraq [Tanzeem Qaedat Al-Jihad Fi Bilad Al-Rafidayn] issued a 17:29
minute video entitled: ³Battle of the Captured Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman,´ of the
suicide car bombings targeting al-Hamra Hotel and Ad al-Zohoor Hotel in Baghdad. The
video contains a brief biography of Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman describing his three
arrests and depicting footage of him urging on Muslims to Jihad. In addition, a video clip
of Usama bin Laden is played over shifting images of Abdul Rahman, in which the al-
Qaeda leader states that the ill treatment of the Blind Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman is an
³assault on Islam and the Muslims.´ Audio messages from Ayman al-Zawahiri, Abu
Musab al-Zarqawi provide the backdrop for scenes of the preparation for the shaheed
operation, with each v leader lauding the mujahideen for their might and

land of Islam, to occupy Iraq in order to loot its wealth and to license all that God has forbidden. Fighting them has already become
an obligation.´ The Kurds were lying and days after Iraq fell into the hands of the Americans the Kurdish forces joined them. In fact,
the only true allies the Americans had during the invasion of Iraq were the Kurds. After the American victory the Kurds began their
own campaign of ethnic cleansing, driving thousands of Arabs from their homes, many of which once belonged to the Kurds.

about the three Shaheeds, Dr. Abu Ayub al-Iraqi, Abu Abdul Malik al-Najdi, and Abu
Samir al-Tunisi, whereas each reads their respective will and describes their motivation
for martyrdom. Before boarding his car, Dr. Abu Ayub al-Iraqi states: ³No God but God, I
didn't offer my sole to the country but only to Allah and my religion." The video features
satellite imaging of the site of attack in central Baghdad, where the targets, al-Hamra
Hotel and Ard al-Zohoor Hotel, the den of foreign intelligence and Ghadr Brigade
members, who have put out a contract on Mullah Krekar were residing. The narrator
states that Dr. Ayub al-Iraq led the attack, followed by al-Najdi and al-Tunisi in a second
truck carrying two and a half tons of explosives, and ³in a moment of Allah's anger, the
car exploded to kill the enemies of Islam and to please the Muslims.´ Media reports
indicate that the car bombings were executed in the al-Jadriyah section of Baghdad on
November 18, 2005. The explosions destroyed several apartment buildings within
proximity and caused heavy damage to the hotels, killing at least six and wounding
forty.62

In the course of searching for an illegal asylum seeker the British arrested a
chemist who produced ricin, but not before the Brother stabbed a policeman to death
and wounded several others. A few days later, at two o¶clock in the morning, 150
policemen in riot gear broke into the Finsbury Park Mosque with battering rams and
arrested six North Africans. No ricin was found and all the police came up with was a
stun gun, a replica revolver, a canister of tear gas and computer files and documents
including passports, identity cards and credit cards. Scotland Yard and MI5 detectives
discovered nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) suits in the mosque but kept this
secret for several days in order not to create panic. The suits were tested for traces of
ricin.63

Imam Abu Hamza al-Masri was not arrested, however he was banned from
preaching at the mosque after he declared that the crew of the ill-fated Columbia space
shuttle, a Jew, a Christian and a Hindu, symbolized a ³trinity of evil´ that was justly
punished with death by God. The fact that the motor of the craft fell on Palestine, Texas,
was also a message from God.64 In April 2003 Imam Abu Hamza al-Masri received a
letter withdrawing his citizenship and informing him he had 10 days to appeal or be
deported. The British government can now deprive immigrants with dual nationalities of
their citizenship and deport them if they disapprove of their thinking. After his conviction
the British made ³glorification of terrorism´ a crime.

 At dawn on May 27, 2004, a team of police officers knocked on the door of Imam
Abu Hamza al-Masri¶s home in Shepherds Bush, West London, seized tapes of the
Imam¶s sermons, listened to them then arrested him. While he was in detention ± but
not charged - he was re-arrested so that the police could hold him for another two
weeks! This most learned Imam was arrested because his thoughts were different than
those of a Christian. Brother Al-Masri was tried and convicted for having these thoughts,
³Like you imagine you have one small knife and you have a big animal in front of you.
The size of the knife, you cannot slaughter him with this. You have to stab him here and
there until he bleeds to death. Then you can cut out the meat as you like or leave him to
the maggots. What can be done today is that the enemy can be caused to bleed and
you my Brothers should start to destroy the enemies of Allah. Britain is a  country
at war with Islam. Killing  is allowed in Islam and people who sell alcohol are
legitimate targets. The Jews are cursed. Hitler was sent to torture and humiliate the
Jews and every last Jew is going to be buried in Palestine. You will fight them until
every tree and stone says µO you Muslim, you servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind
me, come and kill him.¶ There is no drop of liquid loved by Allah more than the liquid of
blood. Whether you do it by a lamb, whether you do it by a Serb, whether you do it by a
Jew or you do it by any enemy of Allah, that drop of blood is very dear, it has got purity.
The Jews are the biggest enemies of Islam and are dirty monkeys who have to be
fought. If we see disbelievers¶ misfortune we should rejoice and wish that their troubles
occurred at our hands.´65

Abu Hamza al-Masri was sentenced to 7 years in prison, which means he will be
out in 3½ years. Hamza al-Masri was indicted in the United States despite the fact that
he had never visited there. Hamza al-Masri was accused of ³crimes´ such as helping to
set up the Bly, Oregon training camp and plotting to establish a ³computer lab´ in
Afghanistan.66

The medovevim, or ³birds´ or ³speech elicitors´ are Palestinian prisoners who

have agreed to become Detainee Camp Kapos for the Jews. Kapos received more
privileges than normal death camp prisoners, towards whom they were often brutal.
They were often convicts who were offered this work in exchange for a reduced
sentence or parole.

Hamas warrior Muhammed Salah was tortured during interrogation in the Zionist
entity in 1993. He told his interrogator: ³You threaten to undress me and beat me and
now you threaten me with twenty years imprisonment. During the interview they left me
in solitary confinement with a bird for two days. This is the analysis of the Brothers in

the Ramallah prison, when I told them that I saw a person in the place which they
described as the place of the birds, and that person spent two nights with me in solitary
confinement, a refrigerator.´

In December 2005 Salah filed this motion in a case accusing him of supporting
Hamas, ³Defendant has requested the identity of the bird interrogators. Beyond the
identity of the specific "birds" involved in the interrogation, however, Salah is seeking
the memoranda and other writings prepared by his GSS interrogators that reflect
meetings with the "birds" in the course of Salah's interrogation, information supplied by
the "birds" to the interrogators, and information supplied by the interrogators to the
"birds." Included in this request are documents that reflect the specific methods of
interrogation and treatment of Salah by the "birds" and the instructions given to the
"birds" by Salah's interrogators as to methods to be used in the course of their
involvement in Salah's interrogation. Finally, the defense is seeking the criminal history
of the individual birds, promises, payment, or other benefits that were provided to the
birds, and the identity of all other detainees interrogated by these same birds. The
government has represented that Israel has responded that the identity of the birds is
classified and will not be produced. At the November 4, 2005 "meet and confer," the
government agreed to request from Israel the memoranda or notes of meetings with the
birds concerning Salah and also agreed to request recordings of the bird interrogations
with Salah. The government refuses to request that Israel produce the remaining
documentation. As reflected in the affidavit of Salah filed in support of his Motion to
Suppress, the "birds" played a critical and viciously brutal role in his interrogation. Not
surprisingly, when American Consul General Molly Williamson arrived for a previously
scheduled visit with Mr. Salah during his weeklong interrogation by the birds in late
February/early March, she was denied access and told to "go home and protest."

"Major Chaim" was the GSS interrogator in charge of Salah's interrogation.

According to Chaim, Salah's interrogation by the birds was essentially the linchpin of the
investigation and bore the most significant information. Chaim testified at the military
tribunal that he planned the bird interrogation, but refused to answer any questions
regarding the methods involved in Salah's bird interrogation, including how many birds
took part.

Consider the following colloquy that took place at the military tribunal:

Defense Counsel: In the course of the gambit and after the gambit, were
the speech elicitors [birds] questioned about what happened in the cell
and was a document written about it?

Chaim: Yes, there was a debriefing, and yes, a document was written.

Defense Counsel: I ask that the Prosecutor provide this document

Prosecutor: The document contains all the investigative methods. All of it

is investigative methods. You do not need to know what the purpose of the
 gambit was, what its nature was - and the document contains everything.
The conclusions drawn from the gambit are also investigative methods.

Defense Counsel: Do the speech elicitors also refer, in this document, to

what happened in the cell, with the Defendant?

Chaim: Yes.

Defense Counsel: Do they refer to the circumstances [illegible] of the

Defendant?

Chaim: Yes.

Moreover, "Cohen," one of the principal GSS agents in charge of

interrogating Mr. Salah after his interrogation by the birds, testified to the
following at the military tribunal: ³The speech elicitor's gambit was
complex, in stages, and at each stage we would receive progress reports
from different interrogators...The manuscripts from the speech elicitors are
in our possession ...The names of the interrogators who did [the bird
debriefing] are in our possession. Thus, there is no dispute that
documents exist which are directly relevant and material to Salah's motion
to suppress claims and which must be produced. It is difficult to fathom
how the government of the United States could possibly indict Salah, let
alone seek to utilize the "manuscript" produced while Salah was under the
control of the birds or the March 18 recorded statement - where Salah was
forced to read at length from the bird document without first seeing and
evaluating the documentation testified to above and requested by the
defense. This Court must not permit such ostrich behavior by the
government.67

Thanks to the birds Muhammed Salah confessed that in the late 1980¶s he and
Musa Marzook sought recruits in America with knowledge of CBW. He said: ³The
activity was conducted as follows: Collection of all the names of Palestinians from the
occupied land, together with the following details: Their fields of study; The date when
they completed their studies; Date of return to the occupied land; Their ability to express
themselves, military activity, and their ability to work with chemical materials; Personal
information enabling us to assess the place of a certain brother. About 27 names were
sorted, according to their expertise in chemical materials, toxins, physics, military
education and knowledge of computers. These Brothers were tested and they were
given materials from their fields of expertise such as remote control activation,
agricultural pesticides and basic materials for the preparation of bombs and explosives.
The result was very little success. The required know-how about the sources of these
materials was not shown. There was progress only in the field of computers, and in the
use of instruments to jam telephone conversations, and watches to activate explosive
charges«Later on ten people were chosen, on the basis of military criteria. The policy

67

of the Palestine Organization Enlistment was to send someone who could be used as
µammunition¶ in the U.S. The activity continued with Muslim instructors from the U.S.
and Lebanon. The meetings were personal and were held with me and with Brother
Anan al-Karimi. The purpose was to exploit their knowledge in demolition materials and
weapons, however, we stopped the meetings after some time, as a result of the Gulf
War. The other ten Brothers trained to the best of their ability and studied activation of
explosive charges, in practice and in theory. The instructors were a Brother from
Lebanon who was a commander of the strip in the south, and another Lebanese Brother
who for years participated in the Lebanese war against the Israeli enemy. Following the
Gulf War we decided to stop the training because the American intelligence service
investigated the ties between Iraq and Muslim Arabs in the U.S. and especially as
regards procurement of complex equipment. The training of three Brothers only
continued in absolute secrecy. They were trained in preparing detonators by Brother
Ismail Khadr of Nablus, who acquired personal experience in Afghanistan.´

In 1992, civil war broke out in Algeria when an Islamic fundamentalist party won
national elections but was prevented from taking power by the military government.
Many of the Islamic militants left Algeria in 1992, including Ahmed Ressam. He moved
to France, where he lived illegally until 1994, mostly on the island of Corsica. There he
obtained a French passport, glued his picture on it, and used it to enter Canada, where
using his true name, Ressam sought asylum in Canada, claiming that he had been
falsely accused by the Algerian government of aiding Islamist insurgents and had
served 15 months in prison. His petition was denied, but Ressam was allowed to stay in
Canada because of a moratorium on deportations to Algeria.68 Ressam cheated the
Canadian welfare system, and stole luggage from tourists and was arrested for theft
four or five times but was never jailed or deported - he only paid a fine. Ressam
contacted Abder Raouf Hannachi,69 a Tunisian-Canadian who performed the call to
prayer at the Assuna mosque in Montreal. Hannachi, who had also trained in
Afghanistan, set things up with Abu Zubaydah and Ahmed Ressam traveled to a remote
area of Afghanistan for training.70 During the time that the Taliban trained Ressam in

condemned him to 6 years in prison for membership in a 
 organization acting with foreigners. The supreme court of appeals
of Tunis confirmed the verdict on January 5, 2005.

. Ressam was asked about some other experiments that were conducted at the training camp:
 You watched as your chief put a dog in a box, correct? Your chief put cyanide in the box, is that correct? He added sulphuric acid
to the cyanide, correct?

 Yes. We were all present there.
 And the dog shortly thereafter died from that experiment, correct?

 Correct.
 How long in general would you say that you watched these dogs suffer?

 Not very long, I don't remember precisely, maybe four minutes, because the dog was very small.
 In the four minutes you watched the dog suffer before the dog died did you do anything to stop your leader from killing the dogs?

 No.
 You wore a mask over your face during these experiments, correct, so that you would not breathe in any of the poison?

 Yes.
 You told us that with the experiments with the dogs in the box, that you did not conduct them personally, correct?

 Yes, not myself, personally, I was present during the experiment.
Afghanistan, he observed a fatwa issued by Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman. Ressam
stated: ³It was a fatwa issued by Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman with his picture in on it, a
piece of paper with his photograph on it. It said it was a fatwa by Omar Abdel Rahman
from prison [smuggled out by the Sheik¶s attorney, Lynne Stewart]. It says fight
Americans and hit their interests everywhere.´ This fatwa was found in Lynne Stewart¶s
office by the FBI:

Quite a number of the people of the book [referring to Jews and

Christians] wish they could turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye
have believed. [Qur¶anic verse.] Do you think the people of the book or the
polytheist will like the wealth that God provides you with? There are the
ones who fight any Islamic enlightenment in the whole world, and they are
working to spread adultery, usury and all the types of corruption in this
land. Oh Muslims everywhere, destroy their nation. Tear them apart, ruin
their economy, burn their companies, plunder their interests, sink their

 Do you recall telling [Agent Cohen] on May 24, 2001 during [an] interview, that while at the Deronta camp, that you yourself
conducted experiments on dogs under the instruction of Mustapha Al Maghrebi and Abu Al Suleiman [Ihab Mohamed Ali - one of
Sheik Rahman¶s unindicted co-conspirators]; do you remember saying that to those people on May 24, 2001?

 It might have been a mistake. The information was misrepresented. I was there during the experiments that were carried out by
the sheikh.
 The reason you were trained in the use of cyanide at the camps in Afghanistan was because you were going to use cyanide in
your urban warfare, correct?

 We don't know. Possibly if I needed it, I would use it. Yes, because it is very difficult to use gases in the field.
 You were trained to use cyanide by placing the cyanide near the air intake of a building, correct? The reason one of the
examples was to put the cyanide right near the air intake of a building such as a government building, correct?

 They gave us some examples, but we did not try them out actually.
 And the reason that you would put the cyanide, you were trained, near the air intake would be to kill the most amount of people
without endangering yourself and without being detected, correct?

 Yes, that's how gas is used in killing.
 When you were at the Deronta camp, you yourself injected dogs with cyanide from a syringe and you watched those dogs die,
isn't that right?

 It was relayed incorrectly. What I was saying was cyanide was used on dogs and an experiment was conducted on the dogs.
 Do you recall in the May 24, 2001 meeting with Mr. Bianco and others that you told them that you also used syringes to inject
dogs with cyanide and you would then observe their impending death within a short time; did you tell them that?

 I saw dogs being injected with cyanide and saw it die; however, I was not the one injecting it. Maybe the way it was translated
made it sound incorrectly.
 Other experiments that you conducted at the Deronta camp included experiments with other poisons, correct?

 Yes.
 One of the things you learned at the Deronta camp was how to mix poisons with other substances, put them together and smear
them on doorknobs; do you remember that?

 Yes, I did say that.
 Any person who would touch that doorknob would soon have poison running through their bloodstream, correct?

 Yes, that's true; the poison will infiltrate his body and kill him or her.
 That procedure was designed to be used against intelligence officers and other VIPs, correct?

 Yes, yes.
 On whom or on what did you test those procedures?

 This was theoretical only and that's what I said. The cyanide I said would be mixed with some oily substances. (USDC SDNY 00

blood with the sword. We used podiums to talk about it, however, the

but using force. Dear brothers, if they killed me, no doubt that they will kill

Inspired by the words of the Sheik Ahmed Ressam was ready for a mission. He
already knew that Canada71 has long been a gateway into the United States for v.
Ressam told the FBI that he had conceived the idea to attack Los Angeles International
Airport himself, but that Abu Zubaydah encouraged him and helped facilitate the
operation as had members of the al-Qaeda affiliated Armed Islamic Group. Brothers
Hannachi and Mokhtar Haouari ordered Ahmed Ressam to smuggle EGDN and timing
devices into Washington from Canada on December 14, 1999. This action is known as
³The Millennium Plot.´ Ressam said bin Laden was aware of the Los Angeles
operation.72

Unfortunately, U.S. Customs Agent Mark Allen Johnson thought the

substances in Ressam¶s car were drugs, ³We looked inside and when he
saw what was in there he shuddered and I saw some white crystalline
powder. In my mind I automatically assumed it was meth«´ Two tall olive
jars filled with 50 ounces of EGDN to be used in an attack on Los Angeles
Airport were seized along with Casio timing devices that were much more
primitive than those constructed by Ramzi Yousef. At least three of these
devices were to be used in each bomb, should one of them fail. His
associate, Abdel Ghani Meskini, 31, an Algerian, who was wanted for bank fraud in the
U.S. had been driven to the Canadian/American border and then re-entered the U.S. by

afforded enhanced powers to spy on citizens, steal bank accounts, arrest suspects preventively and deport them on the basis of
secret evidence. Alhumdulallah, Canada has done little with its new powers and in February 2007 was considered not renewing two
of these measures, which have not been used but have stirred strong debate, that allow the police to hold suspects without charges
for 72 hours if they are accused of plotting an attack and authorize judges to compel witnesses to testify in terror cases. (

Despite the fact Meskini was an illegal alien who had left
the United States because of criminal charges, he was never
deported, even after he was questioned about the theft of a 9mm
handgun from a Brooklyn apartment in 1998, a stabbing, the sale
of hashish and the shipment of $15,000 to Algeria. This was
because Meskini developed a relationship with the United States
Customs Service. Meskini was questioned about this:

 What did your relationship become with Customs in 1996?

 They want me to work for them as an informant. It was -- a friend of

mine who pretty much put me in this I met a friend in Boston. His name is
Abdelmajid Kandi and he was working for U.S. Customs and he find out
that I came in this country in a boat,74 so he asked me a few questions, if
there is any people working in the boat which they bring hash, drugs, in
this country. I said: Well, I heard that some few people do that and a few
days later, he pick me up with his car. Yes, and he told me: I'm going to go
see someone. I said sure. And he asked me to go with him. When we
went in the building, I wasn't speaking English. So, when we went in, I find
out I was -- I saw people with badge and guns, and I find out I was right
there in U.S. Customs after he told me, of course, that's U.S. Customs. I
dealt with Robert O'Connor an agent. [He asked me] if I can provide him
with some information, who, how they bring the drugs in this country and
when, whatever I can provide him with.

 At that time in 1996, did you have any information about those
subjects? During that time, did you ever provide Agent O'Connor with any
truthful information about drugs?

 No.

 Did you lead Special Agent O'Connor to believe that you did have
information about those subjects? While you were dealing with Agent
O'Connor, did he ever ask you to make a telephone call?

 Yes.

What did he tell you about the purpose of the telephone call?

make the call from the office. I said: Sure. So, the following day, before I
go over there, I set up a call. I call my friend the day before, and I said:

Yemeni native and geochemist Ashraf Al-Jailani (left) worked at

the Jew-owned Gojo hand soap company in Akron, Ohio and had
indirect access to the chemical labs where flammable ingredients were
stored. These chemicals could have been the fuel for a massive attack.
The FBI picked up Al-Jailani in October 2002. In 1996 Al-Jailani paid a
30-day visit to Yemen after which his wife's diary stated he was
completely changed. The diary said Al-Jailani had become an evil man,
obsessed with a harsh, violent version of Islam and he began to talk
about suicide bombers going to heaven. An FBI memo stated that in
1999 a business card belonging to Al-Jailani was found in the possession of a
suspected v in New York City.

This was Abdel Ghani Meskini, who had been arrested on December 31, 1999 in
Brooklyn and charged with concealing his material support of Ahmed Ressam's efforts
to smuggle explosives into the Seattle area. The complaint against Meskini alleged that
FBI agents learned from a confidential source that between December 11, 1999 and
December 16, 1999 Meskini traveled to and stayed in Seattle where he was to join
Ressam. The source said that Meskini had explained that Ahmed Ressam was a
member of a well-organized group that had assigned him to deliver his rental car,
loaded with explosives, to a parking lot in Seattle where another group member would
retrieve it.75 Meskini¶s arrest was a result of FBI agents having found a piece of paper
with his name and Brooklyn phone number in Ressam¶s possession. After Ressam's
arrest, Meskini returned to his apartment and tried to destroy evidence of his trip to

75
. Meskini said that each person involved in the scheme would only know the tasks of two others so that in the event of an arrest,
no one could expose more than two other Jihadists. This tactic prevented cell member Mokhtar Haouari from being convicted of
providing material support to a so-called ³terrorist´ group nonetheless; he was sentenced to 288 months for credit card fraud. The
United States Attorney was unhappy with this and complained to Haouari¶s judge that the jury could have reasonably inferred that
Haouari deliberately closed his eyes to the fact that Ressam intended to destroy property in the United States by explosion or fire.
For example, Ressam testified that: Ressam told Haouari that Ressam's training in Afghanistan included explosives training; In
October 1999, when Ressam and Haouari discussed a past operation in France in which metro stations were bombed, Ressam said
that it would be good to do another such operation and Haouari agreed; At the same time, when Ressam and Haouari discussed the
bombings of the U.S. embassies in Africa, Ressam expressed the opinion that the bombings were a good thing but would have
been better if they had been done inside the United States, and Haouari agreed; When Haouari first told Ressam that Haouari had a
friend in the United States who could help Ressam, Ressam said, ³Mokhtar, I'm not going to America for tourism. I am going on
some very important and dangerous business.´ When Haouari later confirmed to Ressam that Meskini was willing to assist Ressam,
Ressam asked if Haouari ³explain[ed] to him well the business,´ and Haouari replied that he told Meskini that ³it is a business that
has shteah,´ which is an Algerian word used to describe something that involves fear and danger. Reuters January 1, 2000; USDC

Seattle to rendezvous with Ressam, including an airline ticket and withdrawal slips from
ATM machines in Seattle. The withdrawals were from a Brooklyn bank account.

An FBI agent called Al-Jailani about this business card and Al-Jailani invited the
agent to his apartment and answered all questions in a one-hour session. Al-Jailani said
he distributed hundreds of business cards when he first came to the United States in an
attempt to get a job. At a bail hearing for Brother Al-Jailani Akron FBI agent Roger
Charnesky testified that after the September 11th Raids Al-Jailani said that he knew a
brother of one Shaheeds and approved of the action. Federal Immigration Judge Walt
Durling forced the hearing to make the FBI justify why they needed to continue keeping
Al-Jailani in a Berks County, Pennsylvania prison after more than a year. Agent
Charnesky said that when the FBI searched Al-Jailani¶s apartment on October 23, 2002
Al-Jailani's Wisconsin ID card had the same address as a ³Suspect B´ whose address
(Briarwood Apartments 1826 Fordem Avenue, Madison, Wisconsin) was found in April
1999, along with Al-Jailani's business card, in the Chicago home of
Ziyad Khaleel. Ziyad Khaleel and Tarik Hamdi (right) delivered a
satellite telephone and battery pack to Usama bin Laden in Afghanistan in
76
May 1998. Khaleel purchased the phone itself and Hamdi delivered it.
Ziyad was a Committee for the Defense of Legitimate Rights associate. The
credit card used to purchase the phone belonged to Said al-Fagih
(right), also tied with the Committee for the Defense of Legitimate
Rights. This phone was used to co-ordinate the attacks on the
American Embassies in East Africa. An employee of O'Gara Satellite
Networks testified about the sale of an Inmarsat phone to Ziyad
Khaleel, who was a resident of Columbia, Missouri at the time.
Khaleel purchased additional phone accessories and asked that the
equipment be mailed to Tarik Hamdi, 933 Park Avenue, Herndon,
Virginia. From 1989 to 1992 Tarik Hamdi, reared in Turkey and Iraq,
lived in Tampa, Florida where he worked as office manager for Brother Sami Al-Arian¶s
Islamic Committee for Palestine. In January 2000 Tarik Hamdi joined the defense team
of Mohamed Rashed Daoud Al-'Owhali.77 Tarik Hamdi was familiar with bin Laden's
senior military commander Mohammed Atef, and a letter to Atef contained a line
referring to previous communication through ³Mr. Tarik Hamdi in Washington.´ Tarik
Hamdi sent a fax from Pakistan to bin Laden aide Khalid al-Fawwaz. The fax read:
³Brother Khalid: Peace be upon you. We arrived safely and now we are in the Marriott
Hotel.´78

Al-Jailani placed four phone calls to the same phone numbers dialed by a
Yemeni man convicted of money laundering as a result of information supplied by the
informant known as Mohammed Aansi. Al-Jailani said that a childhood friend, whom he
has not been able to locate, made the calls while he was a houseguest at his

apartment. Two of these numbers were private and two belonged to small grocery

At the bail hearing Al-Jailani's wife, Michele Swensen swore that he kicked,
slapped, and punched her, threatened to relocate their three children in Yemen and
threatened to murder her after which he was to dispose of her body in a vat of acid at
the GOJO hand soap company. Al-Jailani had tried to disciple his wife in December
1998 and his plight became a national issue after he plead guilty to a misdemeanor then
was ordered deported for what Americans call ³domestic violence.´ Governor Taft of
Ohio, seeking the Arab vote, pardoned Al-Jailani after the Jew Anthony Lewis of the

 wrote that Al-Jailani¶s plight was Kafkaesque.80 Al-Jailani was deported
to Yemen in December 2005.

In July 2005 Ahmed Ressam was sentenced to 22 years in prison. The

Government had asked for 35 years because Ressam had ceased co-operating and
refused to testify against associates and began backing away from some of the
information he had shared with investigators when he came to the startling conclusion
that his sentence would not be reduced substantially. Two cases fell apart without him.
The government appealed this sentence as unreasonable in light of Ressam¶s failure to
continue to assist the government and the district court¶s lack of explanation for what
the government believes is an extreme departure. The Appellate Court Given reversal
of the conviction on Count 9 and its corresponding mandatory minimum sentence of 10
years, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit vacated the entire
sentence so that the district court can re-sentence in light of this decision and
developments in the law of sentencing in the meantime. In relation to Count, the court,
Praise Allah, chose to split camel hairs: ³Ressam¶s cross-appeal boils down to what 18
U.S.C. § 844(h)(2) means when it punishes one who ³carries an explosive during the
commission of any felony which may be prosecuted in a court of the United States,´ with
a mandatory term of imprisonment of 10 years. Does it criminalize carrying an explosive
during the commission of another felony, or does it criminalize carrying an explosive
during and   

that other felony? The answer matters in this case because the
government offered no evidence that Ressam¶s carrying the explosives in any way
facilitated his falsifying the customs declaration form.´81 Upon his release Ahmed
Ressam will be deported to France where he was convicted, in absentia, of
³terrorism.´82

two to take effect and it results in death. The gaseous form is more deadly than the
liquid form and acts almost immediately on the victim. The effects are worst after it is
inhaled and death is an end to the suffering. The ³V´ of Vx signifies its long persistence.
So it is more dangerous and toxic than its cousins of the ³G´ variety like GB (Sarin),
which dissipate quickly and were thought to have only short-term effects until scientists
observed behavioral problems, brain changes and immune system suppression in the
animals many days after exposure to doses that caused no immediate effects.84

UNSCOM destroyed 3,000 tons of Iraq¶s Vx precursor chemicals. This would

provide a capability of making 200 tons of Vx nerve gas - enough to wipe out the entire
global population. Iraq loaded Vx nerve gas into missile warheads and UNSCOM found
traces of the nerve agent on fragments of Iraqi missile warheads. Vx was too dangerous
to be used for local attacks with wind that could blow the Vx back onto Iraqi troops. This
factor has helped to keep Vx from being used to cripple local nations. Another problem
was that if Vx weapons were launched against the U.S. or the Zionist entity then there
would be the possibility of a nuclear counterattack because Vx is a weapon of mass
destruction that spreads from impact point killing all in its path.

How was Saddam able to develop Vx, this most potent of all chemical weapons?
There are two ways to produce Vx. The first is by a combination of chlorine, phosphorus
pentasulphide and diisopropylamine - chemicals routinely produced in drug factories
worldwide. This is a difficult process. The other is to produce it starting with O-
ethylmethylphosphonothioic acid (EMPTA) -- a material with no commercial uses other
than that is a key ingredient of Vx. Iraqi military scientists chose to synthesize Vx from
EMPTA. Iraq and Sudan are the only countries to have taken the EMPTA route to Vx.
Three U.S. Army chemists developed the formula, which was the subject of a secret
patent application in 1958. After being declassified in 1975, the patent became publicly
available. Joseph Epstein, one of the chemists who invented the EMPTA approach,
believed it is ³very possible that the patent has gotten into enemy hands.´85

In November 2002 propaganda was circulated that Iraq ordered a million doses
of atropine, and the 7-inch autoinjectors that inject it into a person¶s leg from Turkey.
This can be used to counter the effects of nerve gases such as Vx. Judith Miller of the
 
  reported that it was unclear how much was actually delivered to Iraq
nor was the company to which the order was placed ever named. She knew that is was
false but was another Jew who was a secret member of the Wolfowitz PAC (Political
Action Committee). The Ä
 
 reported that al-Qaeda had received a
shipment of Vx via Turkey from Iraq. More war propaganda, now the subject of a
thousand conspiracy theories! In 2003 the Zionist war propaganda machine circulated a
story that Iraq considered using Vx and Iraqi scientists learned how to modify chemical
weapons so that they could penetrate military protective clothing. The lies continued:
³Before the American occupation, Iraq imported 25 metric tons of silicon diaroxide, a
powder that is a crucial ingredient to such ³dusty´ weapons. If added to Vx, it could kill

We had close political connections with the Sudanese Government since the
Sudanese had been waging a war against the  since 1983. There, in what is
geographically Africa¶s largest country, a Jihad forced several million southern
Sudanese Christians from their homes and caused the deaths of at least two million
more, a campaign that was as effective as Pol Pot¶s in Cambodia in the 1970s. This
was a holy war - a battle between two cultures - one in the north, the other in the south -
the former Arab-dominated and Islamic, the latter African and largely pagan
(Christian).87 In the confessions he wrote for the Egyptian Government in order to gain
his freedom, Ibrahim al-Naggar stated, ³During my stay in Yemen, I cannot say there
was any co-ordination between the Yemeni regime and the leaders of Egyptian Islamic
Jihad, unlike in the Sudan, where there was co-ordination between the Sudanese
Government and the members of the group.´88 Al-Qaeda had close economic relations
with the Government of the Sudan as Usama the Elder had single handedly revived its
economy. Bin Laden, aside from being the world¶s greatest asymmetrical military
strategist, is also a world-class businessman who ran the Sudanese equivalent of
Halliburton or Brown and Root.

The Sudan backed Saddam Hussein in the 1991 Gulf War, and the United
States, which provided covert military aid to the infidel south, did not have a permanent
diplomatic presence in Sudan since 1996. By 1998 the Sudan had a long ³sheet´ of
³terrorist´ offenses and had been on the U.S. State Department¶s list of ³terrorist states´
since 1993. Sudan was not a signatory of the Chemical Weapons Convention. The
National Islamic Front, (NIF) the ruling party of the Sudan since 1983, gave sanctuary to
countless members of the Muslim Brotherhood along with the Abu Nidal Organization,
Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hizb¶allah89 and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad.

bin Ladin began sponsoring Egyptian Islamic Jihad training camps in northern Sudan in
cooperation with the Sudanese National Islamic Front. Bin Ladin's Al-Hijrah for
Construction and Development worked directly with Sudanese military officials to
transport and provision the Brothers training in these camps.92

Many Brothers moved to the Sudan in the early 1990¶s such as Mahmoud
Hinnawi who was expelled from the Sudan in 1995.93 In 1996 Dr. Al-Zawahiri, Ahmed
Salamah Mabrouk and Mahmoud Hinnawi were arrested in Dagestan while trying to
enter Chechnya in order to join Ibn Khattab and Shamil Basayev in the first Russo-
Chechen campaign (1992-1996). Ä   *
 reported the Brothers served
six months in a Russian prison94 but their true identities were never revealed. A member
of Russia's parliament, Nadyr Khachiliev, leader of the Muslim Union of Russia, wrote to
Dagestan's highest court that the three "businessmen" had come to "study the market
for food trade" and should be freed. Russian security services overheard telephone
discussions of a $10,000 bribe offer by the head of the Dagestan town of Karamakhi, a
center of Islamist fervor that later was reduced to rubble by Russian troops. With all this
money changing hands the judge rejected prosecution demands for a three-year
sentence and gave the men only six months. They'd already been in jail five months, so
the Russians soon freed them. "God blinded them to our identities," Dr. Al-Zawahiri
wrote later, "God's mercy accompanied us during these months."

Following his release from prison, Mahmoud Hinnawi joined a group of

Dagestani Islamists and traveled to Chechnya in the hope of joining the small number of
foreign fighters who were involved the Jihad. Dr. Al-Zawahiri also traveled to Chechnya
then returned to the Sudan. Ahmed Salamah Mabrouk, whose movements are unknown
following his release, was a Jihad veteran who had been arrested and sentenced to
seven years in prison in 1981 following the assassination of Anwar Sadat. In 1988
Mabrouk moved to Afghanistan and assumed a new role organizing Egyptian Jihad. In
1992, he moved to Sudan, where Egyptian Islamic v were always welcome. On
April 19, 1999 Ahmed Salamah Mabrouk spoke before his sentencing hearing to
Egyptian reporter Muhammed Salah. Through a caged-in section of the courtroom
where defendants are kept, Mabrouk told Salah:

That Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri have access to chemical
and biological weapons" Although Mabrouk didn't specify what those
weapons were, he said they came from countries in Eastern Europe. "He
also said that these chemical and biological weapons are already in the
possession of some of the members of the organization, but Ayman al-
Zawahiri and bin Laden issued strict orders that they'll never be used
except in extreme emergency situations."95

 Al-Qaeda tested nerve gas, according to law enforcement officials who saw
advisories that stated: ³Information indicates the group has experimented with
procedures for making blister (mustard) and nerve (Sarin and VX) chemical agents.´96
An unclassified report produced by the CIA's intelligence directorate stated al-Qaeda's
plans for chemical arms were revealed in a document obtained in summer 2002 that
³indicates the group has crude procedures for making mustard agent.´97 Dr. Al-Zawahiri
wished to build a laboratory for what he called the â -- yogurt or ³culture´ --
program. Fluent in English and French, Dr. Al-Zawahiri studied foreign medical journals
and provided Arabic-language summaries. Dr. Al-Zawahiri: ³We must move the battle to
the enemy's grounds to burn the hands of those who ignite fire in our own countries.
The only language understood by the West is that of maximum casualties. We must
resist this Jewish crusade.´98 In April 1999 he authored a memorandum that stated, ³the
destructive power of these [chemical and biological] weapons is no less than that of
nuclear weapons,´ and ³despite their extreme danger, we only became aware of them
when the enemy drew our attention to them by repeatedly expressing concern that they
can be produced cheaply.´ Much of this was Dr. Al-Zawahiri ¶s work, as he had the
scientific background to explore the use of chemical and biological weapons.





   c  

Dr. Al-Zawahiri had help from an Egyptian scientist

he met in Afghanistan, Midhat Mursi al-Sayed Umar,
whose Jihad name was Abu Khabab Al-Masri the father of
the proud steed, chemical weapons, that with swiftly carry
us to victory. A son of Alexandria's Asafirah, a noisy
seaside district of rutted streets and crowded housing, Abu
Khabab, (born October 19, 1953) graduated from
Alexandria University in 1975 with a degree in chemical engineering. Abu Khabab left
Egypt in 1987 for Saudi Arabia, and then Afghanistan, where Egyptian Islamic Jihad
joined the war against Soviet occupation.99 Khabab prepared the explosives for the
bomb that hit the Egyptian Embassy in Islamabad in November 1995. After the Taliban
took Kabul in 1996 they took over the former Soviet military base at Darunta to house
the 66th Ground Garrison of the 1st Corps of the Taliban Army. Shortly after, at least
300 Arabs arrived at the base. Khabab was in charge of this al-Qaeda training camp
that specialized in unconventional warfare. Nabil Abu Aukel a Palestinian, received
advanced training in explosives using chemicals at the Abu Khabab camp in March
1998. Abu Khabab warned Aukel "never to discuss the nature of the training," according
to an indictment prepared by the Israelis.100 In October 1998, Brother Ressam traveled

how to build explosives. After the Vx Production Operation was shut down at al-Shifa
and other locations in the Sudan Abu Khabab set up shop in Afghanistan. A June 1999
memo found on the hard drive and addressed to Abu Hafs gave instructions for building
a laboratory, ordering that walls be covered with oil paint and floors with tiles or cement
"to facilitate cleaning with insecticides." But, noted the memo, "construction should not
start until electricity is installed."101 In 1999 Khabab supervised nerve gas tests; satellite
photos showed corpses of dogs scattered about the Tora Bora camp, and al-Qaeda
training videos showed that poison gas had been tested on dogs. In March 2001
authorities at Cairo Airport arrested Mohamed Medhat Omar, the son of Abu Khabab,
upon his attempt to enter Cairo with a fake Yemeni passport, in order to hide his
Egyptian nationality. Montassar El-Zayyat asked the authorities to release Omar, saying
that even if it was confirmed that he was Abu Khabab's son, "we should not punish him
for what his father did." El-Zayyat, who tried to meet with Mohamed Medhat Omar, said
Omar told investigators he was planning to visit Cairo for a few days before heading to
Chechnya to join Islamic rebels there fighting against Russian troops.102 In March 2004,
Egypt arrested Abu Khabab Al-Masri¶s teenage son, Hamzah, following his deportation
from Pakistan.103 Abu Khabab Al-Masri trained a group of Taliban militants who made
the suicide jackets that were used in the suicide attack of January 16, 2006 by the
Taliban in Afghanistan, in which 26 people died. Abu Khabab was in contact with
Gulbuddin Hekmatyar's militants in Kumar and training them in making explosive
devices.

On January 13, 2006 the Crisis Management Cell of Pakistan¶s Interior Ministry
confirmed the deaths of Abu Khabab Al-Masri and Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi, the son-
in-law of Dr. Al-Zawahiri, during the missile strike on Bajour Agency¶s village of
Damadhola. Local resident Sahibzada Haroon reported, ³My house is at a distance of
2.5 km from the spot of the raid. On the night of January 13, 2006 four drones were
monitoring the area. After a few hours, four to five jet planes bombed the house. They
fired missiles. I reached the spot at 9:00 am. The local people removed the dead under
the rubble after 5 or 6 hours. The dead were buried in front of my eyes. There were 13
casualties. There were three, four men. The rest of the dead were women and children
including an infant."

Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi was in the village because he was planning to marry
a relative of Maulana Faqir Mohammad, a tribal leader wanted by the government. That
night, Maulana Faqir Mohammad had invited the future couple and Abdul Rehman al-
Maghribi was there to see the woman. He met the woman, liked her and was to marry
her on January 20, 2006. The woman was taken away along with her relatives after
Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi had seen her. She was not among the dead. She is a distant
relative of Maulana r+ Mohammad and was a widow whose husband died fighting in
Afghanistan when the US overthrew the Taliban. She is around 30 and has a son who is
7. Her martyred husband was a follower of Maulana  Mohammad of the Tehrik-e-

against the state authority in 1994 when its activists seized control of the government
buildings, civilian airport and police stations in an attempt to enforce Shariat in
Malakand division. Maulana Sufi Mohammad was put in detention under the Frontier
Crimes Regulation. The TNSM chief led thousands of followers to Afghanistan to fight in
support of the Taliban in October 2001. Sufi Muhammad returned with a handful of
supporters, and was arrested and sent to jail.104 Since it is not a tradition that the
prospective groom will propose to the prospective bride himself Dr. Al-Zawahiri
represented Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi. Dr. Al-Zawahiri is married to a Pakistani
woman who lives in Federally Administered Tribal Areas. Al-Zawahiri acted as Abdul
Rehman al-Maghribi's guardian or elder or   as per Islamic tradition. Al-Zawahiri had
to pay Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi's dowry, $12,000. In return Faqir Mohammad had to
provide him 100 committed shaheeds as the bride's dowry. Soon after giving Abdul
Rehman al-Maghribi his blessings, Dr. Al-Zawahiri left. Abdul Rehman al-Maghribi
stayed behind along with Abu Khabab Al-Masri. Abu Khabab Al-Masri, Dr. Al-Zawahiri
and his bodyguards were to attend the wedding, but the US attack spoiled the whole
plan. His death was a setback to the Taliban and other v groups fighting in
Afghanistan. Abu Khabab had trained Balochistan Liberation Army militants in making
bombs and landmines.105

The National Islamic Front also provided sanctuary to Gama¶a al-Islamiyya, from
about 1991 until 1996, which used Sudan as its main operational and training base.
Siddig Ali of the Brooklyn / Jersey City Al-Gama¶a al-Islamiyya cell commented:

We have heard that the Brothers from Afghanistan have been going to
Sudan and they have made a great impact, I mean. In Afghanistan they
hold the Brothers, they bother them like this and such they are under great
pressure, some of them went to Sudan and they have created a great
storm now between Egypt and the Sudan because of this subject, a great
storm, they sent some for us to the borders.

In August 1992, Deputy Egyptian Prime Minister Youssef Wali claimed that
weapons were being smuggled into Egypt to Al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya from Iran and the
Sudan.106

Many Brothers have been incubated by Sudan including Mohammed Shawqi El-
Islambouli, Mustafa Hamza, Othman Al-Siman, Rifa'i Taha and Mustafa Nawawi. These
al-Turabi-inspired Brothers were all fugitives after they were indicted in a 1992 case in
an Egyptian military court known as ³the returnees from Afghanistan case´ and were

of Jihad using the Sudan as a base of operations such as June 1995 attempt to
assassinate Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak during a visit to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
The plot, by members of Jamaat al-Islamiyya and Al-Gama¶a al-Islamiyya, was devised
in Sudan and had the financial backing of Usama bin Laden; the state-owned Sudan
Airways carried the attackers¶ weapons to Ethiopia. Mubarak escaped unhurt but in the
attack and the retaliatory firing by the Presidential security guards, two or three
mujahedeen and two Ethiopian security agents were killed, however, another of the
Brothers escaped to Khartoum on a Sudan Airways flight. Sudan, afraid of Egyptian

Islamic Jihad] and the 1981 events. Following the arrival of [Sharif's] wife El-Islambouli paid [Sharif] 4,000 Pakistani rupees a month.
When [Sharif] decided to return to Egypt along with his wife, [El Islambouli] asked [Sharif] to listen to what the second accused has
to say. The second accused, Mustafa Hamza, informed [Sharif] that he wanted to invest in [Sharif's] presence in Egypt, especially
that [Sharif] was never apprehended before. [Hamza] provided Sharif with 500 US dollars for personal expenses. The accused
Mohammed Shawqi El-Islambouli asked [Sharif] to participate in the military training provided by the Sada camp. [El-Islambouli]

Egypt was to carry out the assassinations of public figures, such as the Minister of Interior, Minister of Information, the Governor of
Souhaj and the Governor of Daqahleya. The accused Hisham Hasan Moursi Ahmad admitted that the accused Mustafa Hamza
requested to change his home address [Hisham] in Egypt, and to dodge the surveillance of the security forces because Al-Gama¶a
al-Islamiyya will carry out assassinations in Egypt. Fayez Eid Abdel Rahman Mohammad admitted during interrogation that the
accused Mustafa Hamza handed him 1,500 US dollars. He [Hamza] asked [Fayez] to meet an individual that Mustafa Hamza knows

published in ! ,&   newspaper on April 21, 1996. Mustafa Hamza stated that the
Egyptian group, Al-Gama¶a al-Islamiyya, was responsible for the murder attempt. He
stated that most of the gunmen involved came from Pakistan, traveling on passports
issued by an Arab country, and that one or two men had entered Ethiopia from Sudan,
having received visas from the Ethiopian embassy in Khartoum. He said that only one of
the gunmen had left through Sudan and that he was now in a third country. Mustafa
Hamza added that Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman was the movement¶s spiritual leader.108
The Sudan refused to turn over the would-be assassin and two others believed to be
involved in the plot.109

Circa 1994 our colleagues in the Al-Jihad Group set up an ambush for Husni
Mubarak's motorcade along the Salah Salim road, but he did not use that road on his
way to perform the Eid prayers, so we failed. There was another attempt to assassinate
Husni Mubarak at Sidi Barrani Airport by members of the Islamic Group, but the attempt
was discovered before we could carry it out. Brother Mohammed Yousry had this
among his papers,

Egyptian Group Says It Tried To Kill Mubarak.´ In handwriting, 


, July 8, 1996. By Youssef M. Ibrahim. Jerusalem July 4, 1995. A
Muslim militant group battling the Egyptian government for more than a
decade took responsibility today for an attempted assassination of
President Hosni Mubarak in Ethiopia last week, saying that killing Mr.
Mubarak remained its "sacred duty." The organization, the Al-Gama¶a al-
Islamiyya, said in a statement that it will stop attacks against Egyptian
government officials and security force when Mubarak releases thousands
of Islamic militants, lifts emergency security laws and institutes an Islamic
theocracy. "The Al-Gama¶a al-Islamiyya in Egypt announces its
responsibility for the attempt to kill this dictator, which took place in Addis
Ababa on Monday, June 26th," said the statement faxed to several
newspapers. "Our attempts to carry out the sentence of God against this
criminal will not stop, God willing.110

Another Sudan-based activity was the simultaneous August 1998 bombings of

the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. Several of the Al-Qaeda members who
carried out this mission operated from Sudan, which borders on Kenya. For example
Harun Fazul lived in Khartoum for two years before moving to Nairobi to take over
Brother el-Hage¶s position as leader of the Nairobi cell.111 Mohamed Suleiman al-Nalfi
was taken into custody in Kenya. He was lured from his home in Sudan by al-Fadl the

East African Embassy strike. In 1989 al-Qaeda Military Commander Abu Ubaidah al-
Banshiri ordered Suleiman al-Nalfi to form a Sudanese Jihad group that would be based
on the principles of al-Qaeda and would be used to recruit Sudanese nationals.
Suleiman Al-Nalfi formed this group and acted as its Emir until 1991. In 1990 al-Nalfi
and other Brothers traveled with a caravan of camels from the Sudan into Egypt in an
attempt to establish a route to move al-Qaeda members and associates, and ultimately
weapons without detection. In 1992 Suleiman al-Nalfi participated in a meeting of al-
Qaeda members and associates at which was discussed al-Qaeda¶s goal of violently
removing United States forces from Somalia. In 1994 Suleiman al-Nalfi and others met
with Sudanese government officials and people from the intelligence forces of Sudan in
an effort to prevent the immediate expulsion of Libyan members of al-Qaeda from the
Sudan. Suleiman Al-Nalfi was on the security team of Usama bin Laden, and brought
dogs to the Sudan to protect him.

At the request of the Justice Department Federal Judge Kevin T. Duffy imposed
a ten-year sentence on Suleiman al-Nalfi, despite the fact he was a high-ranking leader
of the al-Qaeda.

Suleiman al-Nalfi: Your Honor, my attorney Mr. Jacobs advised me that in

this case the sentence should not be more than ten years.

THE COURT: If you talked to Mr. Jacobs about the sentence, I would
guess that he told you that he had no idea what kind of a sentence I would
impose.

Suleiman al-Nalfi: Yes, he did tell me that.113

The remainder of this sentencing hearing was held in secret, however, it was
revealed that al-Nalfi did in fact get ten years. Whether he actually served any time is
questionable, as his name does not appear on the Bureau of Prisons inmate locater.
Why? Suleiman al-Nalfi had ratted out his subordinates, who played a much less
significant role in the East African Embassy strike than Suleiman al-Nalfi did. One of
Suleiman al-Nalfi¶s attorneys told the press that her client had not co-operated with the
authorities, however he most certainly must have talked otherwise he would have
received life imprisonment.

The National Islamic Front provided sanctuary to Usama bin Laden from about
1991 until 1996, and gave shelter to al-Qaeda, which used Sudan as its main
operational and training base. During the period Usama bin Laden used the Sudan as
his base of operations many dual use businesses were established. For example when
he wished to purchase explosives to deal with the enemies of Islam construction and

his Grand Jury testimony:

 Did you visit any chemical companies [when you worked for Usama bin
Laden]?

 Three or four chemical companies in Russia. [It was] probably in 1993.

It could be the end of 1992, but maybe in 1993. Moscow and another city,
I can¶t recall the name.

 Did you obtain information about what the prices were for the
chemicals?

 Yes. [I gave the information] to the company, I think it was Abu Fadhl
al-Makkee, the fellow in Saudi Arabia.

 And what was the reason for the other trip you made to Russia?

 Same thing, for purchasing things. Chemicals and other equipment.

Bitumin [paving material] is manufactured by chemical companies.

 Did you purchase any other chemicals? Did you ask about the prices of
any other chemicals? Did they ask you to look for any other chemicals
besides Bitumin, any other chemical products?

 No.

 The company that you purchased or were interested in finding

information for, was that Al Hijra Construction,114 a company owned by
Usama bin Laden in Sudan, correct? And that was building a road going
from Khartoum to Port Sudan, called the Challenge Road correct?

 Right.

 When you build those roads, you not only need Bitumin to build the
ground, you also need explosives to clear the path for the road, correct?

 I guess so. I was asked to bring Bitumin. I was never asked to find out
anything about explosives.

 So when you went to Slovakia and Russia on behalf of Al Hijra

Construction, you confined yourself to looking for Bitumin, but not
explosives, is that your testimony?

 Yes.

114
. Owned together with the National Islamic Front and the Sudanese military.
  Do you know if Chemko, the name on Grand Jury Exhibit 67 and 68,
was the name of any of the companies you visited in Slovakia?

 It¶s possible. I can¶t recall for sure. It¶s possible that I did visit Chemko
in Slovakia.

 Do you know of any reason why you would need nitric acid on behalf of
your business dealings? Are you aware that nitric acid can be used in the
manufacture of explosives?

 Yes.

 Were you ever asked by anyone to find out information on nitric acid?
Do you know any reason why you would need to find out information
about DAM 390?

 No.

 Are you aware DAM 390 is a liquid nitrogenous fertilizer which is a

mixture of ammonium nitric and urea solutions?

 No, it¶s the first time I heard this name.

 Did you have any reason in your business to acquire anything that was
made from nitrogenous fertilizer or urea compounds?

 Yes.

 Why did you need to acquire nitrogenous fertilizer and urea compounds
in your business?

 For the agricultural company al-Themar al-Mubaraka.115

 And Themar al-Mubaraka was owned by Usama bin Laden, correct?

 Correct.

 And did he send you to obtain fertilizer compounds on behalf of that

company?

 That¶s true.

 In what countries did Usama bin Laden send you to obtain those
compounds?

115
. Blessed Fruit.

 Same countries, Russia and Slovakia, on the same trip.

 So now you¶re on the trip looking for Bitumin and 24 nitrogenous

fertilizer and urea, but not explosives?

From 1991 to 1994 Usama bin Laden rented office and living space from Osman
Sulayman (also transliterated as Salman or Suleiman), or at least pretended to do so as
Osman did not seem able to afford such a large, well-guarded compound with al-Qaeda
funding. When Osman Sulayman was asked about this he claimed that he did not know
it was bin Laden who he rented to because bin Laden rented in the name of his
construction company, Wadi al Aqiq. Bin Laden, however, had appeared on Sudanese
television to inform the Sudanese that his construction company was improving the
infrastructure of their country. Wadi al-Aqiq Company, Ltd., (Valley of the Brown Gem)
was also bin Ladin's import-export firm that he ran in conjunction with his Taba
Investment Company, Ltd. Taba was established in 1989 as one of a series of
businesses intended to provide income to al-Qaeda for its training and operations, and
to provide cover for the procurement of explosives, weapons and chemicals. Wadi al-
Aqiq Company, Ltd had secured a near monopoly over Sudan's major agricultural
exports of gum, corn, sunflower, and sesame products in cooperation with prominent
National Islamic Front members. Jamal Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl the Co-operator
called Wadi al-Aqiq a corporate shell that operated in Sudan and that was the "mother
of other companies." As al-Qaeda solidified its position in Sudan other business
ventures followed such as bin Ladin's Al-Themar Al-Mubaraka, "The Blessed Fruit",
Agriculture Company, Ltd. which grew to encompass large tracts of land near Khartoum
and in eastern Sudan. Bin Ladin and wealthy National Islamic Front members
capitalized Al-Shamal Islamic Bank in Khartoum. Bin Ladin invested $50 million in the
bank. This bank was used in 1993 when al-Qaeda bought an aircraft in the US to move
Stinger ground-to-air missiles from Peshawar to Khartoum. The money was wired from
the Wadi al-Aqiq account at al-Shamal bank via Bank of New York to a Bank of America
account held in Dallas, Texas by Essam al-Ridi. Al-Ridi flew the plane to Khartoum. 116
Bin Ladin's work force in the Sudan grew to include militant Afghan war veterans
seeking to avoid a return to their own countries, where many stood accused of
³subversive and terrorist activities.´ In May 1993 bin Ladin financed the travel of 300 to
480 Afghan war veterans to Sudan after Islamabad launched a crackdown against
Islamists living in Pakistan. A joint Egyptian-Saudi investigation revealed in May 1993
that bin Ladin business interests helped funnel money to Al-Gama¶a al-Islamiyya who
used the cash to buy printing presses and weapons. Osman Sulayman was deported
from Saudi Arabia around 1995 for his suspected ties to bin Laden. Osman Sulayman
returned to the Sudan where he got a job at Al-Shifa Pharmaceutical Plant as the plant's
Sudanese general manager, a radical career change for the Brother from food to drugs.

Some cite American pressure as having caused the Sudanese to expel bin
Laden but the blame may rest with the Internal Security Committee of Egyptian Islamic
Jihad, which protects Egyptian Islamic Jihad leadership, conducts background
investigations of members and carries out executions of members deemed as
collaborators. Sudanese intelligence discovered that a young boy was spying for the
Egyptian authorities. The Sudanese government knew that Egyptian intelligence was
active in Sudan, but avoided revealing such information in public. A Sudanese official
informed Zawahiri of the matter, and he in turn referred the case to the Security
Committee.

Mos'ab Mohamed Sharaf, the 15-year-old son of Muhammad Sharaf, a

prominent Egyptian Islamic Jihad member living in Sudan, was collaborating with
Egyptian intelligence. After the tip the Security Committee noticed that information was
being leaked to the Egyptian authorities. This information included the activities of the
group and the places that Zawahiri and his men frequented. Some members of the
committee noticed that the Egyptian authorities were watching the house where
Zawahiri was living in Khartoum. Islamic Jihad preempted an attempt on the life of
Zawahiri when a bomb was planted at the entrance of a hospital that he frequented.
After conducting more investigations, the committee discovered that the Egyptian
authorities had managed to infiltrate the group to the extent that they knew what
happened in the meetings of the leading figures in the group. The Egyptian authorities
had recruited the young Sharaf by taking photos of the young degenerate in a
compromising position and had blackmailed him into spying on the group.

A Shari¶a court that Zawahiri formed condemned the boy. The court said that he
harmed the group by spying on its activities for the Egyptian authorities. The boy was
executed in front of a number of leading figures within the group in order to deter others
from committing the same crime, which Zawahiri considered unforgivable. As a top-
ranking figure in the group, Muhammad Sharaf had to attend the execution of his son by
gunfire in the Sudan. The Sudanese government was concerned about Egyptian Islamic
Jihad having its own court and executioners that condemned members outside the
country's legal system. This, combined with Sudan's worry about relations with Egypt,
was one of several determinants that caused the Sudanese to expel bin Laden and AI-
Zawahiri in May 1996.117

Before expelling bin Laden in the early spring of 1996, General

Omar al-Bashir and the leadership of the Sudan offered to arrest him and
extradite him to Saudi Arabia in return for a huge sum of money. Another
condition was that the Saudis issue a pardon for Usama bin Laden.118 But
the faction of the Saudi Royal Family who stripped bin Laden of his
citizenship in April 1994 then attempted to poison him refused to issue a

country, even as a prisoner who would be executed in short order. The Clinton
Administration was unable to persuade the Saudis to accept him, and did not have a
case to indict him in U.S. courts at the time, so Clinton abandoned the effort and
returned to his adulterous dalliance with the Jew Monica Lewinsky that involved
penetration with cigar and oral anal contact.119 The Intelligence Community knew what
Usama bin Laden represented by this time, but had been literally forbidden from
investigating him and his network by the Jew Gorelick. For Usama and Ayman the
Elders, it was still open season on infidels, although they would have to work through
proxies in the Sudan.

Producing WMDs had been a long-term goal of al-Qaeda. In the Federal Court
trial (or tribunal) of Usama bin Laden before the Jewish Judge Sand, the traitor Jamal
Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl testified about al-Qaeda¶s previous attempts to produce
chemical weapons in the Sudan circa 1992. Jamal Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl reported
that al-Qaeda and the National Islamic Front had a close working relationship in the
Sudan, working together to obtain weapons and explosives and in an effort to develop
chemical weapons.

 I learn that in this building they try to make chemical weapons with
regular weapons.

 Can you explain what you mean by chemical weapons with regular
weapons?

 I really I have no idea about what they mean. I remember Amin Abdel
Marouf, he explain more to me about this. He say the war between the
government and the Sudan and the rebels in the south, it¶s like 30 years,
and always the rebels during the rain time, they took the Sudanese army
to north, and he say if we use weapons like that, it easy for us to win. He
tell me the al-Qaeda group try to help Islamic National Front to do these
weapons, to make these weapons.

 During the time that al-Qaeda was in the Sudan, did al-Qaeda have a
relationship with a group by the name of al Gama¶a al-Islamiyya? Can you
tell us what the relationship was between al-Qaeda and Gama¶a al-
Islamiyya?

 The Gama¶a al-Islamiyya help al-Qaeda for their agenda, and at the
same time al-Qaeda help Gama¶a al-Islamiyya for their agenda. That time
the Gama¶a al-Islamiyya leader was Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman.

 During this time recalled by Jamal Ahmed Mohammed al-Fadl, Mamdouh
Mahmud Salim became very intimately involved with the government of Iran and with
members of the National Islamic Front, particularly National Islamic Front members who
controlled the Sudanese intelligence service and all three worked together to produce
chemical weapons, however, nothing much came of it.

On September 12, 1997, the      , published in Paris,
reported that a Chemical Warfare factory was under construction south of Khartoum,
near Abu-Dawm. On October 31, 1997, a report in the Paris-based, pro-Saudi Arabia,
! ,Ä  ! ,-! news magazine said that leaders of Islamic organizations including
Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri held a strategy-making meeting at the home of Hassan al-Turabi
in al-Manshiyah, Sudan.120 The leaders agreed to ³find the necessary funding to
develop the chemical and bacterial weapons factory that the Sudanese Government
has established in the Khartoum Bahri suburb of Kubar...´ This location was reportedly
near the al-Shifa facility, although al-Shifa is generally characterized as a more
industrial than residential location. On July 16, 1997, the secretary general of the
opposition National Democratic Alliance said that the Sudanese government had built a
CW production factory in Kafuri, also in the north of Khartoum. On January 14, 1998,
the Beirut newspaper  ,%  reported that Arab security forces had observed
Sudanese government efforts to acquire chemical and biological weapons production
technology as part of its ³War Industrialization Program.´ According to the report, the
project was headquartered in the Kafuri suburb of Khartoum and has several facilities
located in Khartoum, the agricultural town of Fao, and the more industrialized city of
Shandi in northern Sudan. Human Rights Watch noted opposition National Democratic
Alliance charges that Iraqi Chemical Weapons were stored at the Yarmouk Military
Manufacturing Complex located 12 kilometers south of Khartoum in Sheggera. The
locations of three alleged production facilities are in or close to Khartoum: Kubar, Kafuri,
and Sheggara.121 James Risen of the 
 reported, ³American suspicions
about the Al Shifa plant arose in the summer of 1997 when, intelligence officials said, an
informant reported that two sites in Khartoum might be involved in chemical weapons
production. The informant also mentioned a third site -- Al Shifa -- on which he had less
information, but which was suspicious because it had high fences and stringent
security.´

Many of these tips came from Mubarak Fadl al-Mahdi, Sudanese Interior Minister
before the 1989 Islamist coup, who was known as the Umma Party's (the National
Democratic Alliance) organizer and fund-raiser. The National Democratic Alliance was
the major opposition group in the Sudan and although many of their leaders were in
exile, they had the best intelligence on the Sudanese Islamists. As was the case when
the communist Mujahedeen of Iran revealed Iran¶s nuclear ambitions, the National
Democratic Alliance was right on the money about al-Qaeda and the Sudan¶s chemical
ambitions. The time was right for nerve gas production to begin. With the major v

Friends Sudanese handiwork, America had severed diplomatic relations with the Sudan,
so its spy nest was closed, although its satellites where still recording suspicious activity
and its NSA still monitoring communications and media. Before entering into large-scale
production, it was determined that a small amount of Vx nerve gas should be produced
in an inaccessible part of an already existing facility. There were only a few such plants
in the Sudan, and one of them was Al-Shifa. A June 1999 memo found on Abu
Khabab's computer hard drive and addressed to "Abu Hafs" Atef called for evasive
action to avoid detection: "Periodically (for example about every three months) one of
the locations is to be canceled and replaced by another."122 This was why there were so
many reports of al-Qaeda¶s nerve gas and chemical weapons production taking part at
so many locations. It was what Americans would term, ³the proverbial floating crap
game.´

Construction began on the Al-Shifa Pharmaceutical Plant in Khartoum in 1992 as

a 40-60 venture between Bashir Hassan Bashir and Baaboud Trading and Shipping
Agencies, which partially owned by Saeed Ahmed Baghlaf & Partners, well known in the
Saudi business community for real estate, steel industries and currency exchange
businesses. With over 40 years of existence, the group had no connection to bin Ladin
unless you consider the fact that Baghlaf sells ! ,&% .123 The Al-Shifa plant
opened in 1996 and supplied malaria tablets and veterinary medicine for cattle.

In early 1998 Osman Sulayman, who had been placed in the Al-Shifa
Pharmaceutical Plant in 1995 as a sleeper agent of al-Qaeda, manipulated things so
that Al-Shifa fell behind on payments to suppliers, and he even spent a few nights in
prison for bouncing checks to bolster his credibility. Sulayman claimed he sent a
desperate fax to Salaheldin Idris asking him to buy Al-Shifa; he knew he had money and
had been buying up a number of Sudanese companies. He claimed the two men met in
Saudi Arabia, where Sulayman ran a food company before deported back to the Sudan.



 cc c

Salaheldin Idris (Salah-Eddin Ahmad Idris), a 46-year-old tailor's son, was born in
a farming town in north Sudan. He moved to Saudi Arabia in 1976 and currently holds a
Saudi Arabian passport. He found work, as an accountant at Sheikh Khalid bin
Mahfouz's National Commercial Bank. Eventually, he joined Sheikh Khalid bin
Mahfouz's circle of close advisers, where he could earn commissions by finding
investments for his friends, like Dr. Al-Zawahiri. On October 4, 1998, the  

 stated that, according to ³U.S. intelligence officials,´ Idris ³has had financial
dealings with members of Islamic Jihad, an Egypt-based group responsible for the
assassination of President Anwar el-Sadat in 1981. Egyptian Islamic Jihad, in turn,
receives money and sponsorship from Mr. bin Laden and has been absorbed into his

terror network....´ These officials also reported that Idris ³launders money for
international Islamic groups, and that he also has a stake in a company in Sudan that is
40 percent owned by the Military Industrial Corporation, a Government entity that the
United States says controls Sudanese chemical weapons development.´124 Idris also
did business with Abdul Baset Hamza, a former Sudanese government engineer who
says he once oversaw a road-construction project of an Osama bin Laden company
during bin Laden's years of exile in Sudan. Abdul Baset Hamza built military factories for
Sudan's Islamist regime. Salaheldin Idris had links to the Military Industrial Corporation
through other business interests in Sudan.125 Salaheldin Idris said, ³I'm definitely not a
supporter of this government, I'm a close friend of Omar Hassan Bashir´126 whatever
that means? Idris¶ Jewish lawyer Daniel H. Bromberg alleged, ³A well-known supporter
of an opposition party, Mr. Idris regularly writes a column critical of that regime in a
newspaper based in Egypt, where he maintains a residence.´127 If this were true would
Idris been allowed to operate in the Sudan? Idris also said the U.S. freeze on bin
Laden's assets has affected unspecified assets of his own but called the action a
mistake that eventually will be reversed.

Salaheldin Idris had begun investing heavily in the Sudan in early 1996 about the
time when bin Laden was expelled.128 In March 1998, Bashir and Baaboud sold the
factory for approximately $32 million to Salaheldin Idris. Salem Baaboud said he got
cash -- he won't say how much -- from Salaheldin Idris after negotiating with him directly
in Sudan. Sidi Tayyib chief financial officer for some of bin Laden¶s companies in Sudan
claimed bin Laden had invested in al-Shifa.129 Tayyib defected to the Saudi regime and
he knew quite a bit about bin Laden remaining small companies here and there. He told
the Saudis about them.

Salaheldin Idris put his cousin, a pharmacology professor named Idris Babiker
El-Tayeb130 in charge of overt operations at the plant. At this time the plant was instead
dedicated to repackaging pharmaceuticals produced by others and distributing them in
Sudan and elsewhere. Dr. Eltayeb claimed he quickly concluded that one-third of the
staff could go, and that a pharmaceuticals specialist should replace Osman Sulayman,
who was never fired.131 The name Hasab El Rasoul Mohamed   appeared on the
Rahman Unindicted Co-Conspirator List. Hasab Babiker was arrested by the INS on

Had the CIA penetrated al-Qaeda? Or was the CIA monitoring the financial
transactions of those they suspected of financing Usama bin Laden¶s operations? Were
they examining dual use businesses that would lend themselves to Jihad such as
fertilizer, chemical and pharmaceutical? Did Osman Sulayman¶s presence at the plant
tip them off? The answer is none of the above. It was the information from the
Sudanese opposition groups and others that had appeared in the press obligated a
reluctant CIA to send an agent or agents to all of the locations mentioned to take soil
samples. 

c  


A soil sample was taken from the grounds around the Al-Shifa plant and EMPTA
was discovered. According to former CIA Director George Tenet, the CIA sent a human
agent to Al-Shifa who entered the facility grounds, evaded plant guards, and collected
the soil sample from a designated area within the gates of the plant.135 He said that a
U.S. commercial laboratory analyzed the sample and found a level 2.5 times that
necessary to be considered a trace presence of EMPTA. Tenet said the operative had
submitted to repeated polygraph tests to gain assurance that the informant had carried
out the mission as instructed.136 Idris¶ Jewish lawyer Daniel Bromberg alleged, ³The
agent who supposedly collected the soil sample from El-Shifa was not a U.S.
intelligence agent but an Egyptian operative. Given Egypt¶s antipathy toward Sudan, a
possible motive for providing false evidence must have been evident to the U.S.
government«´137 Perhaps the plant¶s ventilation system or underground waste-disposal
system allowed the EMPTA to get into surface soil or maybe someone wanted to get rid
of some already made EMPTA and poured it directly into the soil? Or maybe it had been
stored but not produced there? We do not pretend to be God. We are not all knowing.

 As God lives, the only known use of EMPTA is as a precursor to Vx; it has no
uses in pharmaceuticals. It is not made accidentally as a by-product of legitimate
pharmaceutical manufacturing. A synthetic chemist has to go to quite a bit of trouble to
make the carbon-phosphorus bond in EMPTA, and none of the pharmaceuticals made
in the Sudan included that chemical bond. It is three steps removed from any precursor
that could legitimately be present in a pharmaceutical plant (and that one is regulated
on Schedule 3 of the Chemical Weapons Convention). Thus, unless an ³accident´ had
occurred which involved running three separate chemical reactions, one of which is
rather tricky, EMPTA was not there due to a mistake.138 EMPTA was a smoking gun
that should have alerted the West to al-Qaeda¶s intentions. A small quantity of a Vx
precursor chemical was produced and stored in Al-Shifa then transported through or
near it. This was a small-scale pilot production of EMPTA that only required a wide
range of available glass-lined equipment that can be tucked away in a small part of a
building.139 The plant was not heavily guarded for that would have only aroused
suspicion.

Since only small quantities of EMPTA were produced extensive tests in the
facility subsequently, including the septic tank, did not detect it. Of course these tests
were conducted after the U.S. bombed the facility. This fact did not stop Seymour Hersh
who wrote in the 
 that the government $  to have evidence that the
plant the United States bombed in Sudan, in retaliation for supposed terrorist activity,
was something other than a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility. According to Hersh it
wasn¶t, and America knew it, but killed people anyway. Brother Mohammed Salameh
agreed with Hersh: ³I would like to say that even after more than 79 months of my
detention, Judge, Honorable Judge, I would like to tell you who is the coward. The
cowards is the one who launch the missiles at the medicine factory in Sudan and
Afghanistan and Iraq from military vessel just by pressing buttons«´140 The Learned
Elders of Islam believe Hersh wishes to see America¶s enemies obtain WMDs, as he
does his best to facilitate this. Jews today are bound for self-destruction and seek to
arrange matters so that they can destroy the rest of the world in the process.

In June 1998, an FBI mail cover at International Institute of Islamic Thought's

physical address and its post office box in Herndon revealed the receipt of mail from the
Al-Shifa Pharmaceutical Industries Company, in Khartoum, Sudan. The International
Institute of Islamic Thought is a core member of the Safa Group that corresponded
directly with Sami Al-Arian¶s groups in Tampa. Various documents and videotapes
stolen by the FBI in the Tampa searches showed that Taha Jaber Al-Alwani, the
President of International Institute of Islamic Thought, was an associate of his Eminence
Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman.141

 In August 1998 (August 20, 1998) U.S. President Clinton
ordered a cruise missile attack on the al-Qaeda VX program ± and
the Al-Shifa Pharmaceutical & Vx Plant in Khartoum, Sudan was
demolished. One person was killed and nine others were wounded.
There was much controversy about the Al-Shifa Affair because
Clinton ordered the attack at exactly the same time he confessed to
having an adulterous affair with Monica Lewinsky. Many believed he did this to deflect
attention from his own problems. This cloud of doubt generated by the reprobate
behavior of America¶s degenerate President aided al-Qaeda in convincing the Zionist
controlled Western media, both liberal and conservative, that Clinton was mistaken in
choosing this target. The 9/11 Commission: ³The failure of the strikes, the  

slur, the intense partisanship of the period, and the nature of the al-Shifa evidence likely
had a cumulative effect on future decisions about the use of force against bin Ladin.´

The U.S. Treasury Department froze $24 million of Salaheldin Idris¶ assets,
however Salaheldin Idris is a very wise and very wealthy man quite familiar with the
corrupt greedy ways of the Zionists and Crusaders. In America Salaheldin Idris hired
Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld. Akin Gump ranked number four among law firms
serving as lobbyists, bringing in $6.7 million and $9.7 million in lobbying fees in 1996
and 1997. In October 1998 Akin Gump had donated $674,000 to the major American
political parties with 53 percent of that amount to the Democratic Party and 47 percent
to the Republican Party. Idris was sure it could unfreeze his assets. The United States
chose to release the money rather than go to court, because of security concerns. The
Justice Department claimed it was hesitant to reveal additional information in court to
maintain the freeze since this would have destroyed their ability to gather intelligence.142
Or was American afraid of alienating the Saudis - Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld
defending Idris meant the Saudi Royal Family stood behind him. The Learned Elders of
Islam wonder what the outcome of the case would have been post-September 11th,
when the convoluted financing of al-Qaeda was part of the public record? Shortly after
the plant was bombed, Idris retained constitutional expert the Jew Laurence Tribe of
Harvard Law School in another lawsuit to recover damages against the U.S.
Government for bombing his plant, but Tribe no longer represents him, and will not say
why.143

In the Sudan Salaheldin Idris hired Ghazi Suliman, an attorney,

human rights activist and chairman of the National Alliance for the
Restoration of Democracy in Sudan, who was part of the National
Democratic Alliance and was close to Mubarak Fadl al-Mahdi,144 who was
intent on convincing America that EMPTA was being stored or produced at
al-Shifa. After the Vx plant was decimated, Mubarak Fadl al-Mahdi and

other Sudanese opposition leaders in exile in Asmara, the capital city of Eritrea, issued
a press release that stated Idris was a front man and that the factory actually belonged
to the National Islamic Front lead by Hassan al-Turabi.145 This reinforced the legend
that Idris was not an Islamist nor was he into fronting for Islamists. Idris¶ lawyer Daniel
Bromberg alleged, ³Mr. Idris maintains a residence and conducts business in Egypt,
which would not be possible if the government believed that he had any ties to the
terrorist organizations that were responsible for the assassination of Anwar Sadat.´146
On July 6, 2003 the Sudan police arrested Ghazi Suliman, for his secularist activities.147
After he was released Suliman took part in a discussion of the ways in which Islam has
been used in some countries, for instance Sudan, as a means for suppression and the
installation of autocratic regimes.148 Idris had completely distanced himself from
Islamism.

Now the question of al-Shifa has become a weapon in the hands of those who
oppose the American occupation of Iraq. Richard Clarke, former National Security
Advisor to Bush the Younger wrote that he is unaware of any reason to believe that
Salaheldin Idris ever supported Osama bin Laden or any terrorist organization.
Accordingly, in the most recent edition of his book !  !  /, Clarke wrote
that the ³intelligence I had seen never implicated Idris in any investment by the Sudan
Military Industry Commission nor in any involvement with Osama bin Laden nor any
terrorist activities.´ In January 2005 Idris¶s lawyers added this to their complaint against
the United States Government: ³Upon information and belief, the U.S. officials who told
reporters that Mr. Idris had business dealings with terrorists and acted as a ³front man´
for bin Laden did not possess any intelligence about Salah Idris that was unknown to
Mr. Clarke.´149 Clarke also wrote that there was no doubt al-Shifa was either producing
or storing EMPTA.150 Idris¶s lawyers did not quote that passage.

that a key figure in Iraq¶s CW program, Dr. Emad Husayn Abdullah al-Ani, the father of

contract with al-Shifa for goods that were never delivered.151 Dr. Al-Ani, who headed the

never verified any of this information. The

interrogations despite America¶s occupation of Iraq. The original sealed indictment
against al-Qaeda had stated that al-Qaeda had "reached an understanding with the
government of Iraq that al-Qaeda would not work against that government and that on
particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al-Qaeda would work
cooperatively with the Government of Iraq."153 All this was propaganda, prepping
America for the occupation of Iraq. Other conservative types hated Bill Clinton more
than al-Qaeda. Accuracy in Media stated, ³After bin Laden was blamed for the
bombings of our embassies in Africa, the Clinton Administration launched a completely
ineffective missile strike on a tent city in Afghanistan and a pharmaceutical factory in
Sudan. The owner of the plant was actually an opponent of the Sudanese regime.´154

Shifa attack. Pearl was taken hostage while attempting to interview Shaykh Gilani for a
story about the would-be shoe-bomber Richard Reid. Pearl had gone to a restaurant in
hopes of arranging an interview with the Sheik. His contact was a man he knew as
³Imtiaz Siddiqui´156 but was in reality, Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheik. Sheik Gilani was
taken into custody by Pakistani police but was not charged in the case.

Shaykh Gilani publicly termed the kidnapping episode ³a Zionist plot to get
Jamaat-ul-Fuqra, a peaceful organization and educational institute, declared as a
µterrorist¶ outfit and a conspiracy against the Inter-Services Intelligence Agency.´ Shaykh
Gilani:

Daniel Pearl was a secret service agent. He went to Bahawalpur to the

house of Maulana Masood Azhar so that he is seen there, so that
somebody sees him, follows him and might abduct him. And then he wrote
my name in the diary that he would be seeing me like this and then leave
the diary at home and then he is abducted. From January 18, 2002 till
January 26, 2002 I was in Garhi Habibullah, supervising the establishment
of a school. When I read in the newspapers that my name was being
associated with the kidnapping, I called my son on January 26th, and he
told me that a colonel had come and he and other people recommended
that I go and talk to the police and tell them I know nothing about Daniel
Pearl. I didn¶t know who Daniel was! The Rawalpindi police agreed that I
was not involved in the kidnapping but requested I proceed to Karachi, as
there was pressure from the U.S. authorities«Try to understand the
conspiracy. I have given a book to my lawyer,    , which says
that documents prove that the aim of the Zionists is to divide Pakistan into
four republics. And the people here very well know this project as well.
Last year (2001) I told my students to hold a rally in America. Then the
U.S. Embassy in Islamabad called someone to the embassy and tried to
bribe him to sign a statement that Sheik Gilani is a terrorist and he could
have the whole briefcase full of money.

York, USA a settlement run by his Eminence and it wastes no words; the World Trade
Center bombing and revelations of v plans by the Brooklyn Muslim Brothers are
described as a case of mistaken identity. "In New York a group of Muslims were being
trained by an FBI plant, whom they believed would lead them to Bosnia to participate in
the struggle there...Imagine their surprise when they were arrested along with their
training materials and charged with plotting to blow up the Holland Tunnel along with
other targets in New York City." The accusations against Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman,
who was sentenced in Egypt for terror acts, before he fled to America, are called "false
propaganda." The Anti-Defamation League is pictured as running paramilitary camps
"that are equipped as small armies that are put together expressly to train members for
terrorist and paramilitary activities to guard the security of their Jewish state, Israel...

The Islamic Front of Pakistan carried out the kidnapping and execution of this
slimy Daniel Pearl on behalf of al-Qaeda. One of the members of the Islamic Front is
Harkat-ul-Mujahideen, or HUM, which is essentially the same organization as Jamaat-
ul-Fuqra, except that it operates within the confines of Pakistan and Kashmir. After the
Afghan Mujahideen captured power in Kabul in April 1992, the HUM converted itself into
an international network of fighters for the defending of the rights of the Muslims all over
the world; HUM has a presence in the U.S. and had trained at least 16 Afro-American
Muslims in the past in order to carry the Jihad to U.S. territory.158 However, most of its
efforts are concentrated in liberating the majority Kashmirian population from Hindu rule.
HUM specializes in kidnapping and in the brutal treatment of its victims. HUM members
will cut the disbelievers throat, let them bleed to death and then behead them. That is
what HUM, under the name of al-Faran, did to the Norwegian tourist kidnapped by
Islamists in Kashmir in 1995.159 When HUM hijacked an Indian Airlines plane enroute to
Kandahar in December 1999, v slit the throat of Rupen Katyal, a newly-married
Indian who was returning from a honeymoon in Katmandu with his young wife, and let
him slowly bleed to death in the business class of the aircraft while the HUM hijackers
sat around him and read from the Holy Qu¶ran. At least he got to fly business class! This
action almost woke up the American Federal Aviation Administration and it released this
bulletin,

Most international hijackings in the 1990s were attributed to individuals

motivated by personal factors, such as seeking to escape social, political
or economic conditions in one's homeland. These criminal acts were
largely unprofessional and rarely involved violence against passengers or
crew. The December 1999 terrorist hijacking of Indian Airlines flight 814
was an exception and could foretell future terrorist acts against civil
aviation, which may include U.S. airliners. The incident most likely will
generate an increase in threat reporting specific to civil aviation, and
increase the near-term threat to U.S. civil aviation for a sustained
hijacking. While operationally difficult, a hijacking of a U.S. airliner could
be viewed by bin Ladin as an option under certain circumstances«He
could demand the release of key operatives and Egyptian spiritual leader
Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman. Since the arrest and incarceration of Sheik
Omar Abdul Rahman in 1993, there have been reports of varying degrees
of reliability to suggest that terrorist groups have discussed or planned the
hijacking of a U.S. air carrier for the purposes of freeing Sheik Omar Abdul
Rahman. Finally, a hijacked aircraft could be flown into a

 It does not offer an
opportunity for dialogue to achieve the key goal of obtaining Rahman or
other key captive extremists, and could result in a greater crackdown or
retribution on captive leaders. A suicide hijacking is assessed as an option
of last resort. The incarceration of Sheik Omar Abdul Rahman in the U.S.
has been identified as a motivation for hijackings.160

In August 1998, in retaliation for al-Qaeda

activities such as the East African Embassy Event U.S.
Cruise missile strikes destroyed training camps
belonging to HUM, however, HUM claimed that what
was destroyed were madrasas being run for teaching
the Holy Qu¶ran to Afghan and Pakistani children and
alleged that the U.S. strikes also destroyed four
mosques, severely damaged another and for good
measure destroyed 200 copies of the Holy Qu¶ran. Imams described this as an act of
sacrilege by the U.S. against Islam and as marking the beginning of a new Crusade.
During the sermons in mosques and madrasases in Afghanistan and Pakistan, they
warned that this act of sacrilege would not go unpunished.

Pearl was kidnapped, his throat slit by Khalid Shaikh Mohammed161 and then he
was beheaded by a HUM group led by Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheik, who was put on trial
in Karachi. Khalid Khawaja who is helping Brother Saifullah Paracha and is related to
Sheik Gilani also helped in the Pearl surgical operation.162 Khawaja has stated: ³It was
not the Taliban that was responsible for September 11th. It was all planned by the
Jewish lobby to take over Afghanistan. The Jewish lobby is taking the whole of
Afghanistan hostage.´ Daniel Pearl was not only bled to death then decapitated but to
add insult to injury he was also dismembered! On the last day of Pearl¶s captivity three
Yemenites arrived who were close to Ramzi Yousef. They had a satchel, a drop cloth
and assorted knives. They ordered some Pakistani¶s to cut Pearl¶s body into pieces,
however, when they buried him face down on land owned by the Al-Rashid Trust they
placed his body parts back together.

HUM Brother Maulana Fazlur Rehman Khalil signed Usama bin

Laden¶s fatwa in February 1998 calling for attacks on U.S. and Western
interests and brought HUM into Usama bin Laden¶s Islamic World Front for
the Struggle Against the Jews and the Crusaders.163 Maulana Fazlur
Rehman Khalil told crowds of believers in Pakistan µOur salvation lies in
obeying the orders of Allah, not America, if we don't do Jihad, our prayers
and fasting will not be accepted. This is a sacred duty. Usama bin Laden is

has formed Jamiat-ul-Ansar another name for Harkat-ul-Mujahideen or HUM.164

A majority of LeJ¶s cadres are drawn from the

numerous Sunni madrasases in Pakistan.´165 Arab League
head Amr Moussa commented, ³To talk about international
terrorism and include madrasases in Pakistan is to turn the
war on terror into a criticism of Islam.´166 For many years Riaz
Basra ran the day-to-day operations of LeJ. Riaz Basra was
involved in more than 300 operations, including attacking
Iranian missions, killing an Iranian diplomat Sadiq Ganji in
December 1990 and targeting government officials. Riaz Basra was a religious man
with extraordinary enthusiasm. It is under Riaz Basra¶s leadership that the LeJ became
the most dreaded sectarian outfit in Pakistan. The intensity of its threat was such that
former Premier Nawaz Sharif, who was served a threatening letter by Riaz Basra,
stopped attending open courts. 167 Brother Riaz Basra was nabbed through an associate
who, unbeknownst to him, had been arrested earlier by Pakistani intelligence agents
and agreed to cut a deal with them in exchange for leniency. LeJ has a hierarchical
network through which they contact each other, usually after prayers at the mosque.
The police had to patiently wait for Basra to contact this co-operator. When he did so,
the man asked Riaz Basra to meet him at his house at a certain time. The co-operator
was milking his buffalo when Riaz Basra arrived and found intelligence personnel lying
in wait for him. Riaz Basra trapped no other militants.168

during his trial in 1994. The entire leadership of the LeJ consists of Jihadists who fought against Soviet forces in Afghanistan.
Brother Riaz Basra figured on a U.S. State Department list of ³terrorists´ who ³live in or have lived in, have trained in, are
headquartered in or financed from Afghanistan.´ Riaz Basra was allegedly permitted to escape from the annual Tablighi
congregation in November 2000, in Raiwind. Security force personnel allowed him to escape fearing large-scale bloodshed if he
were arrested at the congregation. Basra was adept at changing his appearance, and that he had a number of look-alikes within his
ranks. Because of this on a number of occasions he has mistakenly been reported killed. ³Haq Nawaz hanged; one killed in

 ³After Riaz Basra¶s arrest, LeJ¶s next leader was Asif Ramzi, Pakistani¶s ³Most
Wanted Man,´ who was killed in a bomb factory explosion in December 2002. The
    asked: ³Terrorist Killing: Accident or Israeli Revenge?´ It never
occurred to them that HUM had a hand in Ramzi¶s death. After Asif Ramzi became the
Emir of LeJ its energies were focused on killing the doctors of Pakistan. For example,
on the evening of April 21, 2002, after he had seen to the last of his patients, Dr. Ameer
Muavia was leaving his clinic when armed members of LeJ accosted him. One put a
pistol to his temple, and pulled the trigger. Mortally wounded, the 35-year-old urologist
was rushed to hospital and operated upon, but died a few hours later. Since the
beginning of 2001, Muavia is the thirteenth doctor among 80 individuals who have fallen
victim to sectarian killings in Karachi. Of the victims, 51 were Shi¶a and the rest,
including Dr. Muavia, Sunni.169 Doctors are soft targets, but their killings make a big
impact and create fear and frustration in the society. Most of the doctors killed were not
linked to any political or religious organization. Several hundred doctors have already
left Pakistan. The Muslim poor suffer as a result of this activity, and this is totally
antithetical to Islamist teaching.

On July 4, 2003 LeJ members stormed an imambargah170 in Quetta, Balochistan

when it was crowded with about 2,000 people gathered for Jumma prayers. Fifty
worshippers were killed and hundreds wounded. Two assailants carrying automatic
weapons opened fire on the people for over 10 minutes. In the meanwhile, a powerful
bomb exploded outside the main hall, killing the suicide bomber and many other people
offering prayers. The massacre was followed by angry demonstrations and rioting that
led to the imposition of a curfew in the city. During investigations it was found that one
of the attackers, Daud Badini is a brother-in-law of Ramzi Yousef as Badini's sister is
married to Ramzi Yousef.171 In February 2006 police arrested medical doctor Munir
Baloch, at an Afghan refugee camp and accused him of planning the deadly attack in
Quetta city. The government had posted a reward of one million rupees for the arrest of
Baloch, who belonged to Lashkar-e-Jhangvi. The doctor, who confessed his crime
before a magistrate, planned the attack with Daud Badini who has already been
sentenced to death by an anti-terrorism court.172

The purification of Islam by sectarian grouplets can get out of hand: In 1995
Usama bin Laden was almost assassinated by the Takfir wal-Hijra, (literally Identifying
Infidels and Migrating away from them) a group so extreme that members have
embarked on murderous sprees in mosques against fellow Muslims in the belief that a
pure Islamist state can be built only if the corrupt elements of the last one are wiped out.
That year four Takfir members brandishing Kalashnikovs drove up to Usama bin
Laden¶s home in Khartoum in a pick-up at about 4:00 p.m. and attempted to murder

him. They were on their way home, having killed 12 Muslims at a local mosque, all in a
days work. Usama bin Laden¶s guards were alert and fought back. Four of Usama bin
Laden¶s guards died, as did three of the four Takfir members. The fourth was captured
by the Sudanese police and hanged. After that event, bin Laden closed the road leading
to his home. Trenches were dug at either end of the street, closing it to all vehicles ±
and after midnight even pedestrians were stopped, questioned and searched.173

Shukri Mustafa, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, who was imprisoned in

the mid-1960s and joined the radical Disciples of Qu¶tb while in prison, founded Takfir.
He built the Takfir ± the full title of which means ³repentance and isolation´ ± on his
release in 1971. Shukri Mustafa was executed after he kidnapped and murdered an
Egyptian government minister in 1978. In the early 1980¶s Mubarak attempted to crush
this group by arresting 350 suspected members, but many escaped into the deserts of
North Africa. In September 2002 Egyptian police arrested 36 members of the al-Takfir
organization who were accused of trying to topple President Hosni Mubarak¶s
government. Leaflets calling on the population to ³topple the regime´ and appealing for
unity among Islamist groups were found at their homes and workplaces.

Sheik Omar Bakri Mohammed Fostok, who runs Al-Muhajiroun, had this to say
about the Takfirists: ³They are fanatics! They cannot be compared to bin Laden and al-
Qaeda, who have many eminent scholars behind them.´ Abu Hamza Al-Masri said: ³The
Takfir are nothing but a bunch of extremists. They kill Muslims! These people create
nothing and destroy everything. It is not right to be as harsh as they are. These people
want to be judge, jury and executioners.´174 The Takfir were Islamist anarchists until
they saw the true path.175 Now they have abandoned this self-destructive philosophy
and have joined the mainstream Islamists in our Jihad against the West. When 24
members of Takfir were brought before a Paris Magistrate accused of trafficking in
weapons they stated: ³Mamdouh Mahmud Salim and Toufik said to me that the whole of
the Takfir-wal-Hijra network in Europe had joined the World Islamic Face (FIM) of
Usama bin Laden.´176 Takfir Brothers are trusted by Al-Qaeda.

Al-Taqfiri associate Abu Dahdah, a 41-year-old Syrian

Brother, made several monitored phone calls to a North African
man code-named ³Shakur.´ At the end of August 2001, Shakur
told Abu Dahdah that he had ³cut off all his communications«At

. A living example of this union can be found in Takfirist Djamel Beghal, a 36-year-old Algerian, and associate of Brother Nizar
Trabelsi. Djame Beghal was a constant presence at Finsbury Park Mosque in London. When intelligence officers approached
Brother Beghal in the departure lounge of Dubai airport he looked like any other business traveler from the Middle East dressed in
Western clothes and clean-shaven. As a member of Takfir-wal-Hijra, now financed by Usama Bin Laden, he knew he had to keep a
low profile, but Djame Beghal was being cautious for a second reason. Returning to Europe from Kabul after a year of training with
Abu Zubaydah, Djame Beghal was on his way to open the European front of Bin Laden¶s war on the West. Djame Beghal was
returning to France to give the go-ahead for a suicide attack on the U.S. Embassy in the Place de la Concorde in central Paris,
using a truck or even a helicopter. Djame Beghal was one of the key British links at the center of a worldwide Islamist Movement
and the point of contact between Bin Laden¶s group and Takfir wal-Hijra. Le Nouvelle Observateur October 18, 2001 ³The

declined to be more specific, indicating that all of this was highly confidential: ³My

as Imad Eddin Barakat Yarkas) is a mureed of Jamal Zougam - one of three Moroccans
and two Indians arrested in the March 2004 attacks in Madrid that killed 200 people and
wounded 1,500. On September 26, 2005 a Spanish court convicted Abu Dahdah of
conspiring to commit the September 11th Raids in the U.S. and leading an Al-Qaeda cell
in Madrid. Dahdah was sentenced to 27 years in prison for coordinating a July 2001
meeting in Tarragona, Spain, between members of his cell and some of the September
11th martyrs, including Mohammed Atta. During the meeting, final preparations for the
attacks on New York and Washington were discussed. 178

Carlos the Jackal issued a letter from prison contesting any possible link between
Usama bin Laden and attacks planned in France in the mid-1990s. ³These failed attacks
planned to hit Marseille in 1996-1997 have been attributed to Takfir-wal-Hijra and al-
Qaeda. These bloody tales [the assassination attempt against Usama bin Laden in
Sudan] prove the impossibility of any form of co-operation between bin Laden and
Takfir-wal-Hijra. Sheik Usama bin Laden rejected the extremist positions of Takfir.´

The former government of Saddam Hussein was falsely accused of using the
Nile Virus as an entomological weapon against the United States. This was propaganda
generated by the CIA puppet, the Iraqi National Congress, designed to hasten the
overthrow of Saddam Hussein and put them in power.179 The Iraqi National Congress
was aware of the fact that the Center for Disease Control had sent Iraq the Eg101 West
Nile virus years ago as a diagnostic reagent. U.N. UNSCOM inspector Scott Ritter said
that Iraq did research on the West Nile virus, but not for the biowarfare purposes.180 In
1997 the virus spread to the Zionist entity where it caused bird deaths and human-
infections.

the resemblance to Saddam could be formulated. Dr. Richard Preston, the author of
numerous books on biowarfare, contacted Ramadan¶s publisher who told him: ³We
  he was in Canada for a while. We have five employees here, and none of our
people has ever met him. We were introduced to him through a third party. There was a
woman, an American-Iraqi nurse, involved in bringing him forward. There was a
verification meeting with him that took place in the fall of last year, in Canada, .
All of our communication with him has been by E-mail. His E-mail address is now
defunct. A courier outfit physically delivered his manuscript to us.´ Since Ramadan
claimed he was Saddam¶s double the picture of Ramadan on the book cover is actually
a photograph of Saddam. Where is Ramadan now that the threat of reprisals by the
Iraqis has vanished? Why hasn¶t he surfaced and appeared on the media? Why haven¶t
any captured Iraqi scientists given credence to his story?

³Mikhael Ramadan´ was born in Iraq in 1944. He was employed as a

schoolteacher until 1979. That year Saddam Hussein allegedly recruited him to act as
his double. Ramadan had plastic surgery performed by Doctor Helmut Riedle, so that
he would even more closely resemble Saddam. Saddam had hired Riedle after the
doctor was arrested for being sexually involved with young boys when the doctor lived
in Lagenhagen, Germany. Yet there is no record of this man to be found anywhere!
While working for Saddam Mikhael Ramadan was wounded, kidnapped and imprisoned
by the Kurds. Ramadan claimed that he met with Yassir Arafat and Hosni Mubarak
when they visited Iraq, while Ramadan was impersonating Saddam Hussein.

Much of the information he related about the Iraqi regime could be found in the
public domain, or was good information that could have originated with the CIA-
controlled Iraqi National Congress - however, there was plenty of incredulous
information in this book: Ramadan claimed that his wife told him this in 1987: ³It is no
secret what I think about Saddam Hussein. I hate him. I cannot take much more of what
he is doing and what is done in his name. Do you remember the air disaster in America
last year? A 747 jumbo jet bound for Paris exploded shortly after leaving New York in
July last year. 230 people were killed. Saddam authorized it. American air-crash
investigators have no idea what caused the explosion. They have found no evidence
consistent with a bomb. There was a bomb, but it was very small. Four foreign agents of

Saddam¶s assembled it on board when the plane was traveling from Frankfurt on its
way to America. They traveled as two married couples, with false passports. The bomb
was carried on board in separate parts that consisted only of a small battery, a digital
watch, an electric switch and a minute quantity of liquid explosive. They do not have the
necessary equipment in Frankfurt to detect such items. The bomb was assembled in a
toilet and discreetly secured beneath one of the terrorist's seats, situated immediately
above the main fuel tank. There was sufficient fuel for the journey to Europe in the
auxiliary tanks, so the main tank was virtually empty. Instead, it contained a potentially
lethal quantity of fuel vapor. The terrorists knew this. The job of the bomb was not to
blow up the plane. Between the roof of the fuel tank and the main floor of the aircraft is
a space of less than half-a-meter, through which runs the electrical wiring to the main
fuel tank. The initial explosion was a small one, audible only to a handful of people in
the immediate vicinity, but it was sufficient to puncture the tile floor and cause a small
fire beneath the main deck. The main tank was empty, so the electrics leading to it were
switched off. The captain and his crew would have been completely unaware of the
problem. It is likely that one or two of the passengers reported a small bang, but
stewards were probably still making enquiries when the plane blew up. The fire
generated heat against the wall of the main tank. Fuel vapors require a temperature of
approximately forty degrees Celsius to ignite. Within minutes the temperature of the
tank wall would have been greatly in excess of this. The vapors exploded, the tank blew
up and the plane fell out of the sky. On the way down, tile auxiliary tanks exploded,
consistent with eyewitness reports and the findings of crash investigators. The terrorists
were supposed to be affiliated to some terrorist organization based in the Philippines.´

There were many inaccuracies in this account: TWA Flight 800 was destroyed in
July 1996; Ramadan allegedly heard this report in 1987, not 1997; Ramadan claimed
Saddam had murdered his wife years before the flight went down; his wife¶s tale was so
detailed (³forty degrees Celsius to ignite´) one would think she herself was a terrorist; all
of the passengers who boarded the flight, either in Paris, Athens or in New York City
were fully investigated and if they were using false passports the FBI would have
detected this; the flight never stopped in Frankfurt; finally the story had many of the
same details of Bojinga (bombs assembled on board) that had already been made
public. This was sloppy work.

A review copy of the In

we met, Saddam summoned me to his study. Seldom had I seen him so elated.
Unlocking the top right-hand drawer of his desk, he produced a bulky, leather-bound
dossier and read extracts from it...The dossier holds details of his ultimate weapon,
developed in secret laboratories outside Iraq...Free of U.N. inspection, the laboratories
would develop the SV1417 strain of the West Nile virus capable of destroying 97% of all
life in an urban environment...He said SV1417 was to be µoperationally tested¶ on a
Third World population center...The target had been selected, Saddam said, µbut that is
not for your innocent ears.¶´
 Here are more relevant passages from   

  that planted
the seeds for the Myth of the West Nile Virus. Firstly, Ramadan related a conversation
he had with a scientist who believed him to be Saddam Hussein:

My name is Inahn Ahmad al-Bahzaz. I am a biologist from Qurnat as-

Sawda in Lubnan (Lebanon). I have been in Iraq for eighteen months,
working in a research laboratory on the Salmon Pak complex. My task has
been to assist in the development of a variety of strains of the West Nile
virus. As you know, Your Excellency, the experiments have been
successful and preparations are in hand for several deadly strains of the
virus to go into full production. We now know its effects on the human
body in a variety of circumstances and different environments. Since I
graduated in Tarabal (Tripoli), I have experimented on the effects of
foreign matter on respiratory systems and bodily functions. Always I have
used animals: rats, pigs, cattle. Now I am being asked to experiment on
people. Last year, after the army's victory in Mehran, twenty captured
Iranian women were brought to Salman Pak. They were exposed to the
virus, either for observation purposes or to test the effectiveness of
vaccines or protective equipment. Twelve of them are now dead. Of the
others, all are sick in varying degrees. I doubt any will survive. The
subjects are strapped down in an airtight chamber184 and the virus
released. If the subject dies, an autopsy is carried out. This is done from
outside the chamber by means of sleeves inserted into the chamber wall.
Once the examination is complete the chamber is frozen and the contents
stored. The chamber is then prepared for the next test. We know as much
about the way the human body reacts to the various strains of the West
Nile virus, as we ever will until they are used on a large number of people
at once. I have received instructions to prepare the virus for mass
production. But once the virus is released there is a very real possibility it
will mutate further into strains against which our vaccines are useless.
Please, Your Excellency, I implore you with the utmost respect. If Ali-
Hassan is not stopped, he may cause the most dreadful disaster yet seen
by mankind«

"You have to remember that this was only considered a suspect facility.

Ramadan continued,

I return to my meeting with Saddam, almost the last occasion we

were alone together. I was not allowed to sight the dossier he so boastfully
quoted from. Nor do I remember the fine detail only the broad sweep of
what itself was a precise. Later that day though, I filled both sides of a
sheet of notepaper with a private code. This document I kept thereafter in
a hidden compartment in my wallet. It is from these notes that the final
section of this book is extracted.

When Saddam opened the dossier with a lightly trembling hand, I had
wondered again if I was looking at a man stricken with some insidious
affliction. There were no other outward signs, yet some instinct told me
that he was not well. µI will not bore you with the technical data, my friend,¶
he said. µThis will be a layman's resume.¶ He flipped past the first two
pages and began reading from the third. The essence of the introduction
was that, as a result of the United Nations Security Council's persistent
restraints on its sovereignty and legitimate right to defend its borders, Iraq
had initiated a programme, in collaboration with another state [not
identified], to relocate its research facilities beyond its national boundaries.

A list of potential sites was currently under review. Once suitable sites had
been selected the laboratories would be set up and the technical staff
deployed. This part of the programme was scheduled for completion by
mid-1998, and was referred to by Saddam as Point One.

Free of U.N. inspectors¶ interference, the development of the SV1417

strain of the West Nile virus was to be accelerated. In order to satisfy the
potential requirements outlined in Section µX¶ of the dossier [the reference
was stated but I cannot recollect it], it is estimated that the research will be
completed within two years, and stockpiling of the virus will require a
further twelve months. This three-year term was referred to as Point Two.

Up to late 1997 the practical value of the virus SV1417 had been limited
by Iraq's inability to influence the degree and extent of contamination. No
control could be exercised over the natural physical conditions that
determine its direction and distance capability. It was also beyond the
ability of our scientists to predict the longevity and full potential of the virus
in optimum climatic conditions. According to Saddam, it has the capacity
to destroy as much as 90% of all life in an urban environment, but until a
few months ago the means did not exist to protect the Iraqi people and
those of our allies.

New developments have removed these constraints. The almost

accidental discovery of a fully efficient and economically viable antidote
means that protection from the virus can be guaranteed. Within the terms
of Point Two, it was estimated that the antidote could be produced in
sufficient quantity to protect the lives of thirty million people from the
effects of the SV1417 virus. Full logistical details of distribution of the
antidote are given in Section Y.

Saddam went on to explain to me that the SV1417 was to be operationally

tested on an urban development with a population of no less than 100,000
persons and no more than 250,000, within a third world environment,
probably about two years from then, that is early in the year 2000. µHas
the target been selected?¶ I asked timorously, certain in my mind that he
would withhold that information. He looked smug. µCertainly, but it is not
for your innocent ears.¶

Cleverly, responsibility for the act would be diverted away from Iraq by the
formation of a bogus terrorist group, with no known political affiliation or
national cause. Evidence would be left at the scene to implicate this make-
believe organization. More proof of the boundless cunning of Saddam
Hussein.

Once sufficient stocks of the virus and antidote have been accumulated,
Saddam's agents will be sent out to release the virus at specified locations
throughout the world. A list of primary and secondary international targets
and the estimated loss of life for each was included in an appendix to the
document, which he did not read to me. This part of the process was
designated Point Three. Before releasing the virus, an announcement will
be made to the United Nations to the effect that Iraq possesses both the
means to wipe out the populations of entire continents and the antidote
 against it. The announcement will be followed by a series of ultimata, to be
known as Point Four.

Saddam broke off reading abruptly, to bestow his famous broad smile on
me. µI could go on,' he said, 'but I think that is enough to whet your
appetite, and for you to appreciate the extent of the unlimited power I will
wield once this weapon is ready. You know, my friend, power is not about
having the ability to destroy, it is about the willingness to use it without
qualm or discrimination.¶

On August 23, 1999, an infectious disease physician from a hospital in northern

Queens, New York, not far from Kennedy airport, contacted the New York City
Department of Health to report two patients with encephalitis caused by the Nile virus.
What good luck for the Iraqi National Congress! Their book had been published
accusing Iraq of developing the West Nile virus as a weapon and lo and behold the
Great Satan is struck with the disease bearing insects! But a careful examination of the
passage in Ramadan¶s book indicates this was mere co-incidence. Saddam¶s timetable
for production began in mid-1998 and ended three years later, in mid-2001. SV1417
was supposed to kill 90% of those who were infected. The NY99 West Nile virus wasn¶t
highly virulent and other virii would have been more effective as a bioweapon. No bogus
terror group ever took credit for its dispersion and no evidence pointing to this group
was ever left behind. No announcement was ever made wherein Iraq threatened the
world with destruction. Most important of all, after Saddam¶s son Udai allegedly
executed Ramadan¶s wife and children (³I came home the following Wednesday and
Amna, my mother and the children were missing«Hashem told me they were dead´)
why in the world would Saddam confide in this man? This was clearly an atrocity story
designed to frighten the world into taking action against Saddam.

On October 18, 1999, Richard Preston wrote an article for 
 that
reprinted the Ramadan¶s allegations as put forth in the 1

 %  4 , not in the
book itself. CNN reported that a CIA official said that the agency had looked into rumors
that the outbreak was the work of terrorists and concluded it wasn¶t. The official, who
spoke on condition of anonymity, told the !
  there¶s no evidence Iraq or
any other foreign government was involved. None-the-less the damage was done and in
September 2002 Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont urged that the government explore
the possibility of a terrorist link to an outbreak of West Nile virus. ³I think we have to ask
ourselves: Is it coincidence that we¶re seeing such an increase in West Nile virus or is
that something that¶s being tested as a biological weapon against us?´ said Leahy, who
is chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and was the target of an anthrax-laden
envelope sent to his office. Leahy¶s office also released excerpts from previous news
and congressional committee reports saying officials had downplayed the fear that the
spread of West Nile virus might be the work of Islamists.185

 It was the United States that experimented with entomological warfare not Iraq: A
declassified training manual published in March 1981, by scientists at Dugway Proving
Ground,186 that described the feasibility of an attack on civilian populations with yellow
fever infected mosquitoes.187 The training manual estimated that 50% to 90% of the
population would become infected, and half of those would die. In 1954 fleas were
dropped from an airplane over Dugway Proving Grounds. After release, most of the
insects were able to find hosts, but died off within 24 hours. In 1955 a million
mosquitoes were loaded into rocket-shaped ground released munitions. They survived
and the females were successful in seeking blood meals from humans. It was
concluded that EW could be effectively used against civilian populations in urban areas.

Islam¶s bioweapons program began with a disinformation campaign planted by

Arab sources: a story was circulated that Israeli scientists at the super-secret Nes Ziona
bio-warfare laboratory near Tel Aviv were attempting to engineer deadly
microorganisms that only attack DNA within the cells of victims with distinctive Arab
genes.188 South Africa¶s Truth Commission revealed the apartheid government
conducted extensive efforts in the mid-1980¶s to produce a pigmentation bio-weapon
that would kill blacks, but not whites. South Africa¶s director of biowarfare stated his
team had been unable to develop the weapon. As part of the program, South Africa was
said to have tried to develop a bacterium, which acted selectively on the basis of
pigmentation, and would render infertile only black people. The director of this program,
Wouter Basson, had closer ties with the Libyans and Iraqis, than with the Israelis.

Now a real threat of ethnic weapons exists thanks to the Human Genome Project
whose goal is to sequence and identify all the genes on the human genome. This work
may produce weapons targeted at the specific genetic characteristics of Arabic peoples
if investigations provide sufficient data on ethnic genetic differences between population
groups. Scientists have reported: ³It may be possible to use such data to target suitable
micro-organisms to attack known receptor sites for which differences exist at cell
membrane level or even to target DNA sequences inside cells by viral vectors.´ These
kinds of novel bio-weapons, developed from the application of genomics, would only
affect individuals with the particular target protein or structure against which they were
designed. This possibility has led to speculation about µethnic weapons¶ that would
affect Arabs while leaving Jews untouched, becoming a reality.189

Genetic engineering will also change the entire face of germ warfare: In 2001 the

smallpox - was vaccine-resistant and 100% lethal after inserting one immune-inhibiting
gene into mousepox. In 2002    described the complete synthesis of the

estimated that breeding facilities in Harbin could yield 135 million fleas every three to four months. On several occasions, Japanese
aircraft dropped mixed payloads of wheat, rice, and plague-infected fleas onto Chinese towns, instigating plague outbreaks.

Despite our infatuation with biological warfare, al-Qaeda was not responsible for
the post-September 11th small-scale anthrax mailings that terrorized the United States.
When al-Qaeda launches a biojihad hundreds of thousands of  will die.
Remember, there are ten types of filth and impurities: urine, feces, semen, carrion,
blood of carrion, dogs, pigs, and . They all must be cleansed and biological agents
are easy to transport across borders or through airports and cannot be detected by
conventional security mechanisms, such as x-rays or metal-detectors. They are the
perfect weapons. America¶s top expert on biological warfare, William Patrick III, carried
a plastic bottle of powdered anthrax through security, undetected, into a congressional
hearing on germ warfare!

Iraq, as God lives, was innocent of the anthrax attacks just as any observant
Muslim is innocent of having a Big Mac attack. This was apparent from the strain of the
bacteria that was used. Ames is not widespread. The only two natural isolates were
from a cow that died in Texas in 1981 and a goat that died in Texas in 1997.
Microbiologist Paul Keim at Northern Arizona University used a panel of markers to
divide anthrax isolates into 89 genotypes. He tested over 4000 isolates and only two
were Ames. One was the Ames that the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of
Infectious Diseases gave the British biological warfare facility at Porton Down and the
other was from the 1997 goat from Texas. It was the strain of Ames given to British that
was used in the post-September 11th anthrax attacks.

There is no denying that Iraq made extensive efforts to obtain the Ames strain of
anthrax in 1988 and 1989 from various countries in Western and Eastern Europe. A
laboratory in the United Kingdom denied Iraq¶s request for the Ames strain. Iraq
subsequently tried unsuccessfully to get Ames from Porton Down, where Britain
developed its biowarfare agents. Many laboratories in the United States experimented
with the Ames strain, but kept it under close watch.191

America provided much aid to Iraq during the war with Iran, as American foreign
policy tilted back and forth between Saddam¶s National Socialism and Iran¶s theocracy.

since the  wished to see Iran and Iraq inflict great damage upon one another. The
American Type Culture Collection, Incorporated (ATCC) made 70 United States
government-approved shipments of anthrax and other disease-causing pathogens to
Iraqi scientists between 1985 and 1989, according to American congressional
records.193 American Type Culture Collections role as a supplier of anthrax to Iraq
became public on February 9, 1994 when Senator Donald Riegle delivered a Senate
speech that outlined American Type Culture Collections shipments and criticized
Commerce Department¶s export controls. The Senator noted that American Type
Culture Collection shipped ³bacillus anthracis,´ twice ± in May 1986, and September
1988. The batches, frozen in tiny vials, were shipped to Baghdad¶s Ministry of
Education. American Type Culture Collection insisted that they never carried Ames.
They admitted seeding the Iraqi anthrax stockpile in 1986, but not with Ames. In 1989
shipments were halted by the Bush administration. The FBI found no evidence that
Baghdad ever obtained the Ames strain. Dried anthrax spores remaining from its pre-
1991 program would still be viable and pose a significant threat, however they would not
have been of the Ames variety.194

Dr. Wouter Basson told the Pretoria High Court ³the whole Western world helped
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein create chemical and biological warfare facilities in the
late 1980s. The British made certain inputs about security. The Swiss and Germans
were also involved. The whole Western world helped Saddam to build up these things -
the Americans were also involved.´ Intelligence sources within the Zionist entity
reported that anthrax had been found in hospitalized Iranians. Iranian sources have
confirmed this and referred to Iraqi use of ³microbic´ and ³bacteriological´ weapons.195

biological agents,´ to Iraq. Between 1985-89, the US firm ATCC sent Iraq up to 70 shipments including 21 strains of anthrax, 15
Class III pathogens, E. coli, Salmonella cholerasuis, Clostridium botulinum, Brucella meliteusis, and Clostidium perfringens. [This

Philippines, the Moros, purchased anthrax from an Indonesian pharmaceutical company. Anthrax bacteria were obtained from arms
th
dealers in Kazakhstan. None of these, however, was the Ames strain, used in the post September 11 anthrax mailings.
 U.S. intelligence agencies told U.N. weapons inspectors that Iraq had hidden
7,000 liters of anthrax but it was never uncovered. United States Secretary of State
Colin Powell said that records dating from the 1990¶s inspections showed that Iraq
 
 produced 27,000 liters of anthrax. Could have but had not. Iraqi defectors also
accused Saddam¶s scientists of weaponizing the Ebola virus. Adnan Ihsan Saeed al-
Haideri, whose legend portrayed him as an engineer specializing in constructing dust-
free ³clean rooms´ needed for certain types of laboratory work defected after Iraqi
authorities arrested him in January 2002 on fraud charges and imprisoned him in
Hakamiya Prison, where political prisoners were held. Al-Haideri said he bribed his way
out of jail and fled Iraq with the help of the Iraqi National Congress then claimed Iraq
constructed underground test chambers and a viral strain code-named µBlue Nile,¶ a
variation of the Ebola virus, a usually fatal hemorrhagic disease that causes bleeding
from the eyes and certain death. The Iraqi National Congress officials said they have
been unable to learn whether the lab had produced viruses in a weaponized form. 197
The American occupation forces failed to uncover any such underground bioweapons
facilities Al-Haideri¶s flunked at least one polygraph tests and like most of the other

When Colin Powell gave his speech regarding Iraq to the United Nations, he
never mentioned underground laboratories, only mobile ones:

We have firsthand descriptions of biological weapons factories on wheels

and on rails. The trucks and train cars are easily moved and are designed
to evade detection by inspectors. In a matter of months, they can produce
a quantity of biological poison equal to the entire amount that Iraq claimed
to have produced in the years prior to the gulf war« As shown in this
diagram, these factories can be concealed easily, either by moving
ordinary-looking trucks and rail cars along Iraq¶s thousands of miles of
highway or track, or by parking them in a garage or a warehouse or
somewhere in Iraq¶s extensive system of underground tunnels and
bunkers.

American press reported troops discovered mobile laboratories but reported their
contents were looted and the surfaces of their equipment treated with a caustic agent.
The trucks allegedly contained dual-use items like fermenters, spray dryers, centrifuges,
and could be hooked up to an electrical source and water to begin producing weapons.
Agent production reportedly occurred Thursday night through Friday when the U.N. did
not conduct inspections in observance of the Muslim holy day. William C. Patrick III

to-grow organism like anthrax.´199

On May 25 and 26, 2003, a Defense Intelligence Agency-led interagency

exploitation team that provided a technical engineering assessment of the trailer system
examined two trailers uncovered in Iraq. The team concluded in a May 27, 2003
executive summary, "although a substantial explosion hazard does exist based on the
configuration of the system, it is possible to produce hydrogen gas with the system" and
"that the trailer system could not be used as a transportable biological production
system as the system is presently configured.´ British scientists agreed: ³You could not
use them for making biological weapons. They do not even look like them. They are
exactly what the Iraqis said they were: facilities for the production of hydrogen gas to fill
balloons.´200 The United States State Department¶s Bureau of Intelligence also had
doubts about these trailers.

The story had to be changed. Now teams of Iraqi scientists might have been
ready to use these dual use facilities to quickly develop weapons of mass destruction if
U.N. sanctions against Iraq were lifted, but his never took place and that was why no
anthrax was ever found in Iraq. All the evidence of this was hypothetical, ³We
  start
again anytime,´ said a captured Iraqi officer, ³It's very easy. Especially biological.´201 In
response to questions raised by these ambiguities, the Iraq Survey Group examined the
trailers as part of its investigation of the alleged mobile BW program. The Iraq Survey
Group found that eleven design features of a fermentor, critical to a BW production
capability, were not present on the fermentor in the mobile trailer. Ten of those features
would require major reconfiguration to be transformed into a BW-capable fermentor.
The Iraq Survey Group judged that the trailers were impractical for biological agent
production and almost certainly designed and built for hydrogen generation.

It was later revealed that, Curveball, the source of information for existence of the
mobile labs had failed two lie detector tests and was connected with the Iraqi National
Congress nor did American officials initially speak with him directly.202 The Americans
had to admit, ³The CIA hypothesized that Curveball was motivated to provide fabricated
information by his desire to gain permanent asylum. Despite speculation that Curveball
was encouraged to lie by the Iraqi National Congress (INC), the CIA¶s post-war
investigations were unable to uncover any evidence that the INC or any other
organization was directing Curveball to feed misleading information to the Intelligence
Community. Instead, the post-war investigations concluded that Curveball¶s reporting
was not influenced by, controlled by, or connected to, the INC.´203 Ah, but what would
one expect from those who live under civil rather than religious law ± the cover-up of
one¶s own misdeeds of course. The INC could not have existed with the CIA funding it

reliability. Despite the April 2002 CIA assessment, the May 2002 fabrication notice and
the July 2002 assessment suggesting the source may have fabricated information, the
source was highlighted in the October 2002 National Intelligence Estimate, and he was
one of the four HUMINT sources specifically referred to in the part of Secretary Powell's
February 2003 speech before the UN Security Council that discussed the mobile BW
production units.´204 Time after time it was reported that the information provided by INC
sources like CURVEBALL was ³embellished´ and ³coached.´

The Iraqi Survey Group "harbored severe doubts about the source's credibility.´
The Iraqi Survey Group team investigating CURVEBALL's story located and debriefed
over sixty individuals who could have been involved in a mobile program or were linked
to suspect sites or to CURVE BALL. Many of the individuals corroborated some of the
reporting on personnel and some legitimate activities the source claimed were cover
activities, but none provided evidence to substantiate the claim of a mobile BW
program." The facility, which CURVE BALL said housed the mobile production units, did
not have vehicle entrances on the ends of the buildings as he reported. In fact, the Iraqi
Survey Group reported, "two two-meter-high block walls around three sides of the
building prevent vehicle access into the building through these reported vehicle
entrances. Iraqi Survey Group determined that the walls were constructed by 1997,
which is when the BW production unit was reportedly on site." A CIA analyst involved in
the Iraqi Survey Group's investigation of CURVE BALL told the Senate Intelligence
Committee staff that in the fall of 2003 the Iraqi Survey Group interviewed
CURVEBALL's relatives who said CURVEBALL was not in Iraq during key parts of the
time he claimed to have worked in the mobile program." A CIA assessment dated May
26, 2004 states that "investigations since the war in Iraq and debriefings of the key
source indicate he lied about his access to a mobile BW production project."205

dryers needed to weaponize it however, CIA-linked inspector and Bush apologist David

 Discussions with Iraqi scientists uncovered agent R&D work that paired
overt work with nonpathogenic organisms serving as surrogates for
prohibited investigation with pathogenic agents. Examples include: B.
Thurengiensis (Bt) with B. anthracis (anthrax). Two key former BW
scientists confirmed that Iraq under the guise of legitimate activity
developed refinements of processes and products relevant to BW agents.
The scientists discussed the development of improved, simplified
fermentation and spray drying capabilities for the simulant Bt that 
 
 directly applicable to anthrax, and one scientist confirmed that
the production line for Bt

The fermentation and drying of anthrax was in the discussion stage and
applicable lab equipment was found but nothing was ever produced. David Kay
concluded that Iraq had no stockpiles of biological weapons.207

Our Brothers in Afghanistan were in the midst of producing a

strain of anthrax when the United States interrupted their efforts. On
May 7, 1999, a computer file recorded that al-
Qaeda had set aside $2,000 to $4,000 for ³start
up´ costs of experiments to produce anthrax that
were carried out by Midhat Mursi (left) (also called
Abu Khabab) an elderly chemical engineer and
Egyptian Islamic Jihad member. Moazzam Begg
(right), a detainee at Guantanamo confessed to a
plot in which he arranged for an unmanned drone aircraft to fly over London spraying
weapons-grade anthrax spores on the British Parliament. Such an operation was
beyond our capabilities, my Brothers and Begg was coerced into making this confession
or made it up.208 The computer hard drives and handwritten notes seized from Khalid
Shaikh Mohammed included an order to buy       but the Americans
reported, ³Nothing so far translated implies access to the most dangerous microbial
strains or to any advanced processing or delivery methods.´209 The American General
Richard B. Myers said his forces discovered traces of anthrax and ricin in the camps
used by al-Qaeda. But then he said that the anthrax traces were so small that they
could have been residue of naturally occurring anthrax carried by diseased animals.
The faint traces of ricin could have been residue from stores of castor beans, from

which the toxin is extracted.210 If the Americans had just found traces of anthrax or just
found traces of ricin, that would have been one thing, but traces of both at the same
location? It is well known in the West al-Qaeda wishes to produce biological weapons.
In Afghanistan Americans also found ³calculations and drawings´ for building weather
balloons that could be used to disperse a biological or chemical agent from the air. One
diagram showed four balloons flying together in tandem with a box around them. The
box illustrated how the agent would be spread over a large area.211 The CIA reported,

Information in the Intelligence Community¶s possession since the late

1990s indicated that al-Qaeda¶s members had trained in crude methods
for producing biological agents such as botulinum toxin and toxins
obtained from venomous animals. But the Community was uncertain
whether al-Qaeda had managed to acquire a far more dangerous strain of
agent (an agent we cannot identify precisely in our unclassified report and
so will refer to here as ³Agent X´ but which the Learned Elders of Islam
shall refer to as anthrax) The Community judged that al-Qaeda v had
³probably´ acquired at least a small quantity of this virulent strain and had
plans to assemble devices to disperse the agent. While the Community
believed that a facility to which the group had access provided the
potential capability and expertise to produce biological agents, it had no
evidence that the facility was being so used. Likewise, the Intelligence
Community assessed that al-Qaeda was ³highly unlikely´ to have acquired
two other dangerous biological agents, and had no credible reporting
indicating it was attempting to do so.

Post-War [intelligence revealed] al-Qaeda¶s biological program was further

along, particularly with regard to anthrax, than pre-war intelligence
indicated. The program was extensive, well organized, and operated for
two years before September 11th, but intelligence insights into the program
were limited. The program involved several sites in Afghanistan. Two of
these sites contained commercial equipment and were operated by
individuals with special training. Documents found indicated that while al-
Qaeda¶s primary interest was anthrax, the group had considered acquiring
a variety of other biological agents. The documents obtained at the
training camp included scientific articles and handwritten notes pertaining
to anthrax. Reporting supports the hypothesis that al-Qa¶ida had acquired
several biological agents possibly as early as 1999, and had the
necessary equipment to enable limited, basic production of anthrax. Other
reporting indicates that al-Qaeda had succeeded in isolating cultures of
anthrax. Nevertheless, outstanding questions remain about the extent of
biological research and development in pre-war Afghanistan, including
about the reliability of the reporting described above.212

Although al-Qaeda has carried out numerous acts for which it did not take credit,
Al-Qaeda had nothing to do with the post-September 11th anthrax attack. The
perpetrator of this attack was determined to make it seem as if Arabs were responsible
and an amazing coincidence helped him do just that: In June 2001 real estate agent
Gloria Irish rented an apartment at the Delray Racket Club to September 11th Shaheeds
Marwan Al-Shehhi and Saeed Alghamdi. Her husband, Michael Irish, was editor of the
tabloid   published by !  4, a target of the anthrax attack.
September 11th operative Ahmed Ibrahim A. Al-Haznawi and other September 11th
v moved in with Marwan Al-Shehhi and Saeed Alghamdi. They all attended flight
school near the Boca Raton headquarters of !  4. Additionally Mohamed
Atta and another operative subscribed to the .214 A FBI spokeswoman said all of this
was a coincidence. She was correct, however, the fact that the first anthrax letter was
mailed to the  was not a coincidence. The news media had carried numerous
reports of our presence in the same area where the  was located and the person
who sent out this letter wished to place the blame on al-Qaeda for the attacks so he
sent it to an entity within our proximity. The contents of later anthrax-laden letters
contained the phrases ³Death to Israel´ and ³Allah is Great´ and were mailed from
northern New Jersey, where a great many Muslims reside. The September 11th Raids
caused many Americans to fear our power and reevaluate their previous contacts with
us, having been swayed by the subterfuges of the anthrax mailer.

 
 c


One such person to make this error was Dr. Christos Tsonas. * Ahmed
Ibrahim A. Al-Haznawi had entered the United States on June 8, 2001. On June 25,
2001 Al-Haznawi went to Holy Cross Hospital in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, accompanied
by September 11th Shaheed Ziad Samir Jarrah, and was examined by Dr. Tsonas. Al-
Haznawi told him he had sustained an injury bumping into a suitcase two months
earlier. Dr. Tsonas treated Al-Haznawi¶s lesion with Keflex, an antibiotic. Keflex is
ineffective against coetaneous anthrax. The FBI found the Keflex among Al-Haznawi¶s
possessions and they questioned Dr. Tsonas who reviewed the case and arrived at a
new diagnosis. The lesion, he determined, ³was consistent with coetaneous anthrax.´
The FBI never released this information despite the fact that Johns Hopkins Center for
Civilian Biodefense Strategies agreed with Tsonas¶ diagnosis. Tsonas went to the

345 with his story and refuses to comment any further on the encounter but
confirming coetaneous anthrax is very difficult, especially after the fact.

If a member of the September 11th raiders in Florida contracted an infection from

the first batch of anthrax it had in its possession it was unlikely that it would have been
coetaneous anthrax. The anthrax mailings produced a batch specific disease. No one in
Florida got coetaneous - two cases of inhalational were reported. Everyone who came
in contact with the September 18th mailing had coetaneous (Hamilton postal workers or
New York City media mailroom people). In the later D.C. mailing everyone got
inhalational, even if by minute amounts due to cross contamination. In any event the
quality of the anthrax differed from mailing to mailing indicating that someone was
perfecting the technique in producing it and that it was not imported from Iraq.216

Al-Haznawi had not come into contact with anthrax and paranoia had engulfed
Dr. Tosnas. If Al-Haznawi had come into contact with anthrax he would NOT have gone
to an outside source to seek help. When Abdul Rahman Yasin was helping to build the
World Trade Center bomb ³he burned his thigh with some acid used to make the bomb,
and Ramzi Yousef and others considered taking him to a doctor, and they thought it
might arouse suspicion, and Mrs. Yasin or Yasin¶s mother had treated his leg.´217

Because of the anthrax attack that was mistakenly attributed to al-Qaeda by

many Americans it was thought that our attempted acquisition of a cropduster was
related to this attack. But in reality it would have been difficult, if not impossible, to spray
anthrax from a cropduster plane. Weather and wind conditions are essential, and the
sprayer must be set for the correct particle size. Most cropdusters cannot disperse a
spray finer than 40 microns. But particles must be smaller than 10 microns to enter the
lungs and infect a victim. Otherwise they will only cause coetaneous lesions. To stay
airborne, the spores have to be aerosolized in tiny droplets of about a micron in
diameter. Finding the right carrier chemicals to produce this undetectable aerosol that
will reach the lung, rather than get trapped in the sinuses, poses a third difficulty.218

Dr. Richard Spertzel, former head of biological inspections in Iraq, confirmed that
Iraq tested cropdusters to spread anthrax before the Gulf war but had trouble getting
them to work. In particular, there was a problem with nozzle design. The Iraqis
possessed several hundred modern Italian-made pesticide dispersal systems that were
fitted with sprayer nozzles capable of generating aerosols of the 1- m to 5- m size
optimal for biological warfare. Some sprayers and appropriate holding tanks were
installed on aircraft. In 1990, the Iraqis modified a MIG-21 fighter plane to be a remotely
piloted vehicle and equipped it with a 2200-L belly tank (taken from a Mirage-F1 fighter
plane) and a spray mechanism. In a field test carried out in January 1991, the remotely

piloted vehicle sprayed a solution laden with a biological simulant over a practice target
range. The results of this test are not known.219

Iraqi scientists considered using an aerosolizer powered by pressurized gas,

such as CO2 or air, to produce vapors or ultrasonic atomizers to produce clouds of
vapor. Aerosolization can destroy some or all of the microbes, depending the species
fragility, pressure, and nozzle type. The Aum Shinrikyo cult in Japan had trucks with
aerosolizers but used the wrong strain of anthrax so the nozzles on their spray guns got
plugged up and they ended up dispersing the agents in harmless concentrations.

Now al-Qaeda has formulated plans to deliver anthrax effectively, although on a

much smaller scale, through the use of medical devices such as portable nebulizer
systems that make liquid into a mist with particles about 2 microns in diameter. Some of
these nebulizers use AC current and can be disguised as a plug in air purifier. The
specifications are perfect as a small-scale biodispersion device: Atomization Rate: 130
ml/hour min for 2.4 MHz / Particle Size Range: 1-3 microns for 2.4 MHz PCB /
Dimensions: 4.25´ long x 2.81´ wide x 7/8´ high / available from Sonaer Ultrasonics.220
This is the description: ³Inexpensive ultrasonic atomization made simple. With the small
particle size produced by this devise, clouds seem to levitate. Connect fluid source to
one of the ports, fill the cylinder up to the specified level and you are ready to atomize.´
An aerosolizer, fan motor, together with small tubes containing 1 to 3 million infectious
doses of a particular agent can fill a large metropolitan skyscraper or enclosed coliseum
with a highly infectious aerosol. One ounce of anthrax in the air conditioning system of a
sports stadium could infect 70,000 .221

On April 21, 1999, trash recovered by the FBI from Benevolent International
Foundation¶s office in Palos Hills, Illinois, included, among other things, a copy of a
February 3, 1999 article in the    concerning small pox as a biological
terrorism weapon. (The article had been removed from the rest of the paper.) The
sections of the text indicating that federal, state and local authorities are poorly
prepared for a biological attack involving smallpox were highlighted. In none of
Benevolent International Foundation¶s advertisements of its humanitarian causes has it
ever indicated that it was dealing with the issue of smallpox in any country.´

influence religious development in the direction laid down by our prophet. These
publications will be cheap and will be read voraciously. Censorship will bring vapid

. In the 1930¶s an American Nazi claimed Ben Franklin's remarks at a 1787 Constitutional Convention were recorded in "Chit Chat
Around the Table During Intermissions," a section of the Diary of Charles Cotesworth Pinckney of South Carolina. ³I fully agree with
General Washington, that we must protect this young nation from an insidious influence and impenetration. That menace,
gentlemen, is the Jews. In whatever country Jews have settled in any great number, they have lowered its moral tone; depreciated
its commercial integrity; have segregated themselves and have not been assimilated; have sneered at and tried to undermine the
Christian religion upon which that nation was founded by objecting to its restrictions; have built up a state within a state«Jews,
gentlemen, are Asiatics, let them be born where they will or how many generations they are away from Asia, they will never be
otherwise. Their ideas do not conform to an American's, and will not even though they live among us ten generations. A leopard
cannot change its spots. Jews are Asiatics, are a menace to this country if permitted entrance, and should be excluded by this
Constitutional Convention.´ Despite the fact that Pinckney was the principal agent in the removal of the civil and political disabilities
that had been imposed on Jews in South Carolina this brillant piece of Nazi propaganda lives on today! This Nazi was motivated by
the fact that Pinckney¶s long lost papers were found in September 1937. In 1938 replying to a statement in the British Parliament by
a Labor Party member that Dr. Goebbels tried to spread anti-Semitism in foreign countries, the Propaganda Minister said ³The
blossoming of senseless can go no further. I never made propaganda for anti-Semitism in the world. The dear Jews did that for
themselves. All we have done is to eliminate the Jews from public life in Germany.

 Adolf Hitler, whose 4 6$ is a best seller throughout the lands of Islam,
wrote:
In the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the
broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper
state of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily, and thus in
the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the
big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little
matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It
would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they
would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth
so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be
brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will
continue to think that there may be some other explanation.

Hitler was right: The absurd story entitled ³Four Thousand Jews Absent From
Jobs at World Trade Center on Day of Terror Attack´ has spread like desert fire
throughout the world. We can hear the Jews that died in the World Trade Center that
day being tormented in their graves! This ³big lie´ was first invented by ! ,42
website223 on September 19, 2001: ³With the announcement of the attacks at the World
Trade Center in New York, the international media, particularly the Israeli one, hurried to
take advantage of the incident and started mourning 4,000 Israelis who work at the two
towers. Then suddenly, no one ever mentioned anything about those Israelis and later it
became clear that they remarkably did not show up in their jobs the day the incident
took place. No one talked about any Israeli being killed or wounded in the attacks. Arab
diplomatic sources revealed to the Jordanian  ,Ä  newspaper that those Israelis
remained absent that day based on hints from the Israeli General Security Apparatus,
the Shabak, the fact which evoked unannounced suspicions of American officials who
wanted to know how the Israeli government learned about the incident before it
occurred, and the reasons why it refrained from informing the U.S authorities of the
information it had.´

 reported it.
Radio Pakistan¶s   reported it. Syed Adeeb, once the Jewish-owned  

correspondent in Washington, DC, New Delhi, India and the United Nations wrote, ³the
terrorist government of Israel«cannot be ruled out´ as a suspect. The Zionist controlled
American media repeated the story, although they ridiculed it. The news spread
throughout the Arab world. Countless Internet websites, chat rooms and bulletin boards
repeated it. Every enemy of the Jews helped to spread this black propaganda! In
December 2002 Saudi minister of the interior, Prince Nayef Ibn Abd
Al-Aziz, and a major Wahhabist thinker, created a variation on this
theme: ³We put big question marks and ask who committed the
events of September 11th and who benefited from them. I think they
the Zionists are behind these events. The Zionist-controlled media
manipulated the events of September 11th and turned the U.S.
public opinion against Arabs and Islam. I cannot still believe that 19 youths, including 15
Saudis, carried out the September 11th attacks with the support of bin Laden. It¶s
impossible. I will not believe that these people have the power to do so horrendous an
attack.´228

We have contrived to possess ourselves of the minds of the Islamic communities

to such an extent that they all look upon the events of the world through the colored
glasses of those spectacles we have set astride their noses. The words of al-Qaeda¶s
own spokesmen (there will be a rain of aircraft from the skies, Muslims in the West are
warned not to live or work in tall buildings) fell upon deaf ears, as did the video tape of
Usama bin Laden that came into the possession of the CIA wherein it was said:

We calculated in advance the number of casualties from the enemy, who

would be killed based on the position of the tower. We calculated that the
floors that would be hit would be three or four floors. I was the most
optimistic of them all. (...Inaudible...) due to my experience in this field, I
was thinking that the fire from the gas in the plane would melt the iron
structure of the building and collapse the area where the plane hit and all
the floors above it only. This is all that we had hoped for. We were at
(...inaudible...) when the event took place. We had notification since the
previous Thursday that the event would take place that day. We had
finished our work that day and had the radio on. It was 5:30 p.m. our time.
Immediately, we heard the news that a plane had hit the World Trade
Center. We turned the radio station to the news from Washington. The
news continued and no mention of the attack until the end. At the end of
the newscast, they reported that a plane just hit the World Trade Center.
Thank Allah. Allah is great, praise be to Allah.

In the spring of 2003 Usama bin Laden said, ³These young men (the September
Shaheeds) refused to stay behind and engage in unimportant things... they engaged in
Jihad against the . The confusion caused to the enemy was sufficient to make
people wake up from their slumber and rise for Jihad for the sake of God. I had the

except as seeds that God planted in his faith and used in his obedience. May God bless
them.´

Amiri Baraka, the poet laureate of New Jersey who converted to Islam in 1968
after associating with homosexuals wrote a poem that incorporated this calculated lie:

And cracking they sides at the notion
Who set the Reichstag Fire
Who knew the World Trade Center was gonna get bombed
Who told 4,000 Israeli workers at the Twin Towers
To stay home that day
Why did Sharon stay away?

Baraka insisted that Israel and its Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, as well as
President Bush, and the FBI knew of our pending attacks, citing various reports in the
news media in the Middle East. ³If you don¶t think President Bush knew, man, you are
back in the cartoon days.´230

Alex Cockburn is an American left-wing columnist, whose father, Claude, was a

British journalist and member of the Communist Party.231 Cockburn publishes
#
 $ , and ran a story that said Israeli spies trailing Mohammed Atta knew
September 11th was going to happen ³but did nothing about it.´ Cockburn, the brother of
Andrew Cockburn, who helped instill the false belief in the American public that al-
Qaeda possessed suitcase-sized nuclear weapons, didn¶t endorse this story, but he
didn¶t disprove it either. He¶s clever, all the while giving the story legitimacy more than
when it appeared in the Arab press. ³I don¶t think I said they were true«I don¶t know
that there¶s enough exterior evidence to determine whether they are true or not,´ he
said.232

Alexander Cockburn was greatly influenced by Brother Edward Said. The Jewish
Defense League called Edward Said a Nazi. His office at Columbia was set on fire by
these Zionist thugs. Both he and his family received innumerable death threats. Since
1991, Edward Said had battled refractory leukemia, induced by the Mossad, who could
not openly assassinate him within the borders of the United States. He finally
succumbed to it in September 2003. Edward Said and Cockburn¶s connection went
back to at least the early 1980s, when a scandal broke concerning an undisclosed
$10,000 grant. In 1982, the now-defunct Institute of Arab Studies secretly gave
Cockburn a $10,000 grant to write a book on the Zionist invasion of Lebanon. When the
payment was exposed, Cockburn, who had never disclosed it to his editor or readers,
was fired from the 2 2
  newspaper. Edward Said, Chairman of the Board of the
Institute of Arab Studies, defended Cockburn in the

AAUG as was the Arab Bank, an institution favored by the PLO. The Iraqis also
contributed funds to the Institute for Arab Studies ± in fact they provided the Institute
with $250,000 in 1979.

Edward Said had to be careful of how much of what he thought that he actually
expressed, since he pretended to be a non-violent intellectual. He did not want to loose
his job at Columbia University, so his statements had to be ³balanced´ when it came to
the Jews and the enemies of America. Although Said denounced the Institute for
Historical Review he defended its right to hold a conference in Lebanon on ³free speech
grounds.´ ³Al-Fatah tacitly encourages a real democracy in political ideal and style,´
Said said. ³Yassir Arafat is a mere symbol of authority despotic or capricious.´235 But
Edward Said¶s actions spoke louder than his words, as evidenced by a famous
photograph of him throwing rocks across the Lebanese border at Israelian soldiers.

³This painting of Arab-American donors and political participants as being

terrorists in disguise is a garish and grotesque caricature,´236 Brother Zogby said trying
to hide the truth under his cloak of respectability. But our donations to U.S.
Congressional Representative Cynthia McKinney paid off when she hinted that the
Israelis knew about the September 11th Raids beforehand: ³What did this administration
know and when did it know it, about the events of September 11th? Who else knew,
and why did they not warn the innocent people of New York who were needlessly
murdered? What do they have to hide?´237 In 1996 McKinney¶s opponent was a Zionist
pig who her father called ³a racist Jew´ because he took issue with McKinney¶s support
of Louis Farrakhan. The Zionist lobby funneled money to McKinney¶s opponent and she
was finally defeated in a Democratic Primary in August 2002 but re-elected in 2005 only
to suffer the indignity of being ³inappropriately´ touched entering a Congressional Office
Building in 2006 and then being accused of assaulting the white police officer whose
³attitude´ caused him to do this however a Washington D.C. Grand Jury refused to indict
her.

C The Jews strived to amass great and substantive material wealth that they devoted to
the realization of their dream of the Zionist entity. With their money, they took control of
the world media, news agencies, the press, publishing houses,
broadcasting stations, and others. In the front rank stand the Zionist
organs of an official character. They will always stand guard over Jewish
interests, and therefore their influence will be significant. In October
1974 when at a Duke University seminar, George Scratchley Brown,

Jews exerted undue influence in U.S. affairs because they ³own the banks in this
country and the newspapers.´ He went on to criticize the Jewish lobby in Congress.
Then in an interview in late 1976, told a French journalist that Israel was ³a burden´ to
the U.S. This is what the former Vice President of the United States Spiro Agnew said
on this subject over 20 years ago:

The people who own and manage national impact media are Jewish and,
with other influential Jews, helped create a disastrous U.S. Mideast policy.
All you have to do is check the real policy makers and owners and you
find a much higher concentration of Jewish people than you¶re going to
find in the population. By national impact media I am referring to the major
news wire services, pollsters,  and  4(

On June 10, 1992 United States Vice President Dan Quayle proclaimed he knows
³exactly who the cultural elite, the media elite, and the Hollywood elite are,´ but declined
to name any names.

Many Jews do control the major opinion making media, although often this works
in our favor, as these are Jews who are convinced they are above the others of their
race or half-Jews who hate the Jew in them. During the war against the Jews in the
1940¶s, Arthur Hayes Sulzberger, the publisher of the  
 , was a Jew
opposed to Zionism, an anti-Zionist. Had the Jews had Israel to flee to back then, many
would have been saved, at least temporarily. But while opposed to Jewish nationhood
Sulzberger was reluctant to take any action that might possibly endanger the advertising
by Jews in his newspaper. He kept his mouth shut, but in 1942 he co-founded, with Dr.
Alfred M. Lilienthal, The American Council for Judaism, an anti-Zionist organization.238

. The  
  gave The American Council for Judaism as much coverage as it gave to all the other Jewish groups
combined -- and more than it gave to the holocaust, in fact, it refused to cover the holocaust as front-page news. On May 18, 1942
the  reported from Lisbon that the Germans had machine-gunned more than 100,000 Jews in the Baltic States, 100,000 in
Poland, 200,000 in Russia. The news appeared on an inside page ± a small article of neutral copy. On June 30, 1942, and again on
July 2, 1942 the  ran reports that the Germans had already put more than 1,000,000 Jews out of their misery. The reports
were of mass killings, but the  again placed them on an inside page. Lecture delivered by Marvin Kalb at the U.S. Holocaust
Memorial Museum on February 27, 1996. The current  publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. was confirmed at an Episcopal
Church as his mother was a non-Jew, who had divorced his father, Arthur Ochs ³Punch´ Sulzberger. Punch was unhappy about his
children having been brought up as Christians, but not enough to force them to be Jews. On a 1969 trip that Arthur Ochs Sulzberger
Jr. made to the Zionist entity ³a senior official of the Israeli government suggested that, no matter what happened in the world,
everyone around the table would always have a homeland in Israel.´ ³Excuse me,´ he said ³But I¶m an Episcopalian! Is this still my
country?´ He realized that Zionism was racism. When America falls under the rule of Islam, we will be happy to look at his Christian
Confirmation Certificate before we execute him as we did Mossad agent Daniel Pearl. There is no conversion except to
Islam.Featherman ³Noteworthy Items in the Press´ The Forward March 16, 1999

 Dr. Alfred Lilienthal began his career as an anti-Communist
activist and candidate for New York City¶s City Council who believed
that the Communist Party supported the policies of Franklin Roosevelt,
the President who brought the United States into an unnecessary war
against the Nazis.239 As the years progressed Dr. Lilienthal became
more and more useful to us. Lilienthal made the transition from anti-
Zionism to embracing a form of historical revisionism. He said: ³At this
point it is not of any real consequence whether the number of Jews
killed was six million - the widely accepted figure which by now has
been held even by Zionist writers to be far too high - or four
million, the number which is closer to historic substantiation, or even
lesser numbers of human beings who were exterminated just
because they were Jews«The bones of [Nazi] Mengele are
exhumed to inject

decision about establishing peace in the Middle East«When I
questioned the authenticity of  %

assailed«´240 In the summer of 1982 the French Nazi Robert
Faurisson wrote an article titled:   %

ã9

Dr. Lilienthal said Americans must understand that criticism of Israel is not anti-
Semitism. ³Zionism isn¶t Judaism. Judaism isn¶t Zionism. Zionism is a political
movement,´ he stated. Without the Zionist entity¶s tanks, guns, grenades and atomic
weapons world Jewry will fall to the will of Almighty God with infinitesimal resistance.
When the National Association of Arab Americans learned Dr. Lilienthal was in
California as a visiting scholar at the Hoover Institution, radio personality Casey Kasem
presented him with a lifetime achievement award. Kasem is an advisor to the American-
Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee.

Dr. Lilienthal probably always knew good Arabs hated Jews, not just Zionist
Jews. But now there must be no doubt in what is left of his mind that Zionists was a
code word for Dirty Jews. No longer do those who oppose the existence of Israel shout
³Death to Zionists!´ Now it is ³Kill the Jews!!´ but he would not care as his anti-Zionist
motivation was racist ± in this case he hated his own race. You might term Ramzi
Yousef a racist ± but he did not hate his own race. Abdul Rahman Yasin said that
Ramzi Yousef had told him in 1993, ³I want to blow up Jewish neighborhoods in
Brooklyn,´ but after scouting the Hasidic neighborhoods of Crown Heights and
Williamsburg Yousef had a brilliant idea: ³Ramzi Yousef told us to go to the World Trade
Center, I have an idea we should do one big explosion rather than do small ones in
Jewish neighborhoods. The majority of the people who work in the World Trade Center
are Jews, anyway.´ On July 28, 2000, Palestinian Authority Television broadcast a

The Jews are a people that Allah cited in the Qur'an as those who
attacked their prophets with lies and killings and attacked Mary, may
peace be upon her, and accusing her of being a whore. They are a people
who didn't abstain from killing God's prophets. How would they refrain
from killing, raping and stealing from humans? They believe that all
humans are animals to be exploited by them, and found that the
Americans are the best-created beings for that use.

Now it is out in the open, we hate ALL JEWS, not just the Zionists. Dr. Lilienthal
is still alive today, living in Washington, D.C. at 800 25th Street NW D.C. in the same
apartment building as Morton Abramowitz, of the Council of Foreign Relations, along
with many others with Jewish names, thanks to the Saudis. He is well into his 90¶s.

Now al-Qaeda attacks Jews in general Zionist or non-Zionist. Outside of Paris

Islamists attacked a Jewish day school. In Nice Islamists attempted to set fire to a
Jewish school, a fire was set in the Jew¶s cemetery in Strasbourg, and in Marseilles a
synagogue was burned. More than 20 synagogues and schools have been set on
fire.242 Shots were fired at a kosher butcher shop in Toulouse. Rabbi Gabriel Fari was
stabbed in his synagogue in Paris and his car was set afire. The problem with this is the
number of Jews leaving France and moving to the Zionist entity doubled after these
attacks. In order to counter charges of Arab anti-Semitism the editor of the Palestinian
Authority daily, ! ,&   ! ,*, issued this statement, ³The secret Zionist gangs
have been acting in France in the same way they used to act in Arab countries - Iraq,
Egypt and Morocco - blowing up Jewish synagogues in order to force them [the Jews] to
immigrate [to Israel]. There are Israeli or Zionist gangs that carry out terror attacks
against Jews and force them to immigrate [to Israel], because Israel suffers from
emigration.´243 This is a Jihad against the Jews, not against the Zionists! This is the
word of Allah, blessed be He. They, the Jews are the real terrorists. They should all be
slaughtered. They should all be murdered. Such is the divine word of God, of Allah!

In order to prevent the world from becoming aware of our seemingly racist
intentions in regard to the Jewish problem (the Jews can convert and avoid all of this)
al-Qaeda has developed an alternative tactic to explain why we conduct activities
against Jews and Jewish religious institutions. After al-Qaeda destroyed two

are in the American prisons, especially Guantanamo prisoners and the Mujahid Sheik

concentrate on the identity of the doer as much as I want to concentrate on [the
assumption] that this act [the explosion] is a legitimate work regardless whether the
explosion was aimed at the World Trade Center itself or aimed at one of the Zionists

Serve Allah, and join not any partners with Him.´ An-Nisa¶ 4: 36

Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say: "This is from
Allah," to traffic with it for a miserable price! Woe to them, for what their hands do write
and for the gain they make thereby. Al-Baqarah 2: 79

When we come into our kingdom there should not exist any other religion than
ours of the One God with whom our destiny is bound up by our position as the children
of Allah. We must therefore sweep away all other forms of belief. Until this day arrives
some variations on the theme of Wahabist Sunni Islam must be tolerated for they are
useful to Islam in achieving this, our ultimate goal. The Islam practiced by the Black
Muslims falls under this protocol, but forget not the contradictions of this heresy.

 



 

The Black Muslims believe: ³Allah came to us from the Holy City, Mecca, Arabia,
in 1930. He used the name Wallace D. Fard´ yet he racial heritage of Wallace Fard is
an enduring mystery. The FBI reported Fard  have been named
Wallace Dodd and  have been born in New Zealand on February 26,
1891. His father  have been British and his mother  have been
Polynesian. Dodd  have arrived in the United States in 1913 and
settled briefly in Portland, Oregon. The FBI, which initiated an
investigation of Fard in 1942 that was to last more than thirty years, could
not substantiate or verify his name at birth, birth date, place of birth, port
of entry, exit, or present whereabouts, despite exhaustive inquiries. There
are even indications that bodies were exhumed in the search for Fard.

After Wallace Fard settled in Detroit, a detective from the Detroit Police
Department assigned to monitor Fard¶s activities collaborated with a college professor
from the University of Michigan on an article concerning Fard¶s Voodoo Cult, also

244
. Yousef Yusuf Polat was arrested in connection with this bombing as he attempted to flee to Iran. Polat said that the two terrorists
killed in the bombing met with al-Zawahiri and "The instructions came from him. They would meet (with him) at least three times a
year, using false identity documents.´ Susan Fraser Associated Press November 29, 2003 and December 10, 2003.
known as Allah¶s Temple of Islam. After both of these men had died, the FBI questioned
the detective¶s widow about Wallace Fard. She reported: ³It was her recollection that
this person was actually of Jewish origin and his real name was a Jewish name,
unknown to her, but not similar to either Fard or Ford.´245 There were unconfirmed
reports that Wallace Fard visited synagogues in Detroit and that he took the name Fard
from Se$ic. He was rumored to have been a dark-skinned Jew of middle-eastern
origin.

On November 17, 1918 Wallace Fard was arrested for assault with a deadly
weapon but was released. He moved to Los Angeles where he opened a speakeasy
and was arrested for bootlegging in January 1926. Many other Jews were arrested for
this offense during the Prohibition Era. His common-law wife in Los Angeles was white.
When she gave birth to a boy, the child¶s birth certificate listed the child as a member of
the white race. After he separated from his wife Fard never sent her money for the
child¶s support. His wife told the FBI that the boy died on August 3, 1942 while in the
Coast Guard. In June 1926 Wallace Fard was arrested under the California Poison Act
for sale of cocaine. Fard¶s partner made a deal to sell the drug to an undercover police
officer and told the officer that Fard had the drugs in his possession. The deal was
concluded in Fard¶s speakeasy. Fard was sentenced to six months to six years in San
Quentin Prison and was released in May 1929. In all of these arrests he was identified
as white. His prison record listed him as white. The leader of the   Muslims was a
 and possibly a Jew.

The prophet and founder of the cult made his first appearance among the
Negroes of Detroit as a peddler. Like Jewish peddlers, he went from house to house
selling his wares. In this way he could get into people¶s homes for every woman was
eager to see the nice things he had. Fard began to comment on the diet of his
customers and recommended they follow what was essentially a kosher regimen since
it forbade the eating of pork. Fard learned of a Moorish Islamite group headed by Noble
D. Ollie called Allah¶s Temple of Islam. The peddler suddenly assumed the role of a
prophet and took over this group. He began to attack the teachings of the 
  and his sermons became popular in the black community. He preached: ³My
name is W.D. Fard and I came from the holy city of Mecca. More about myself I will not
tell you yet, for the time has not come yet. I am your Brother. You have not yet seen me
in my royal robes. I am from the tribe of Koreish, the tribe from which the Mohammed
the Prophet sprang. I am a Hashemite. I am the Supreme Ruler of the universe.´ The
Hashemite family tree is well documented and the name Fard is definitely not present.

Eight thousand Negroes heard ³the call.´ Most of them were recent illiterate
migrants from the South who had been the victimized by white racism. Wallace Fard
told them that their illiteracy was a result of Caucasian ³trickology.´ ³Why does the devil
keep our people illiterate? So he can use them as a tool and also as a slave.´ The
Negro migrants listened to him because they were discontent with life in the North. The
Great Depression deprived them of their livelihood and many went on welfare, which
was given to them begrudgingly by whites. The crowded quarters they were forced to

245. FBI 100-33683-38

live in and the cold climate added to their discontent. The Prophet proclaimed that his
followers did not belong to America and their allegiance was to him, and to Allah. Fard
organized a University of Islam. Truant officers tried to break up the University and a riot
ensued.

A Japanese national, Major Satochasi Takahashi, who had been deported from
the United States and then had re-entered illegally and married a Negro woman,
preached at Fard¶s gatherings. Takahashi was an agent of the racist Black Dragon
Society of Japan. Wallace Fard predicted a race war between the darker people and the
white people of the world. Fard told the Negroes not to serve in America¶s armed forces.
He was useful to the armed forces of Japan. Today, the United States Defense
Department reported that there are approximately 9000 Muslims on active duty in the
U.S. armed services (it is reported that more than 3000 Americans embraced Islam
during the Gulf war alone). Many of these men are Black Muslims. Many of them
refused to fight in the Gulf War. The Black Muslims, although not true followers of Allah,
still remain extremely useful to the  in carrying out our plan to destroy America
by subverting its armed forces!

More serious difficulties arose from the question of human sacrifice than from
draft dodging. Wallace Fard taught that it was the duty of every Muslim to offer to
sacrifice four Caucasian devils in order that he might return to his home in Mecca and
that Allah demanded obedience unto death from his followers. No Muslim dare refuse
the sacrifice of himself or his loved one should Allah require it. On November 21, 1932
Robert Kariem erected an alter in his house and sacrificed his roomer, John J. Smith.
He plunged a knife into Smith¶s heart.

Wallace Fard was arrested on May 25, 1933. The official report stated Wallace
Fard said that he had passed himself off as black and that his teachings were ³strictly a
racket´ and he was ³getting all the money out of it he could.´ Making a deal with Fard,
the police let him out of a psychiatric ward on condition he disband Allah¶s Temple of
Islam; Wallace Fard agreed, but then changed the name of his cult to the Nation of
Islam. Wallace Fard subsequently left Detroit and visited his common-
law wife in Los Angeles. He told her he had sold medical supplies since
his release from San Quentin, was returning to New Zealand, and he
gave her some long flowing white sheets that he said he no longer
needed. There is no record that he ever returned to New Zealand. On
September 26, 1933 Wallace Fard was arrested in Chicago for
disorderly conduct. Before this arrest he had met Elijah Poole, while
walking down a Detroit street. Elijah Poole changed his name to Elijah
Mahammad and became Fard¶s disciple. Elijah Mahammad had
accompanied Fard to Chicago.

Wallace Fard unaccountably vanished without a trace in Chicago in 1934.

Looking back at the violent history of these heretics, the Learned Elders of Islam believe
Fard was murdered and his body disposed of, by his successor, Elijah Mahammad.
Perhaps a clue to the fate of Fard lies in the actions of a close associate of Elijah
Mahammad, Verlene Ali, who was arrested on January 1937 as he prepared for the
ceremonial slaying and cooking of his wife and daughter.246 Wallace Fard probably met
the same end and was cooked then served to his own disciples as Halal meat.

 
  c





After assuming the leadership of the Nation of Islam by the alleged order of its
deceased founder, Elijah Mahammad faced a death plot at the hands of a few
disgruntled members of the group who believed he was behind Wallace Fard¶s
disappearance. Elijah Mahammad, while hiding out in Washington, D.C. was arrested
on May 8, 1942, for evading the draft and telling others to do so. Elijah Mahammad
subsequently ran the Nation of Islam for 40 years, until his descent to hell in 1975.
Elijah Mahammed claimed to have been in touch with Wallace Fard after his
disappearance through mental telepathy.

Elijah Mahammad propagated Fard¶s heretical teachings: Blacks were the

original race of men, but 6,000 years ago, a mad scientist named Yacub invented
whites to be a curse upon the black man. The Holy Qu¶ran said nothing of this. Elijah
Mahammad taught that the Holy Prophet [PBUH] was black. The Hadith247 says: ³He
[the Prophet] uncovered his thigh and I saw the whiteness of the thigh of the
Prophet.´248 ³Whenever the Prophet [PBUH] used to offer prayer he used to keep his
arms away (from his body) so that the whiteness of his armpits was visible.´249 In
4
    4 published in 1965 Elijah Mahammad wrote: ³You will agree
with me that the whole Caucasian race is a race of devils.´ The Black Muslim religion
calls all whites devils, and claims that Muhammad was black. Since Muhammad was
white, the Black Muslim religion either lies, or the one it claims to follow is a devil. Elijah
Mahammad put himself on equal footing with the Prophet [PBUH]

I am the first man since the death of Yakub (4,000 years ago)
commissioned by God directly. I say no more than Jesus said. He said
that He came from God. I say that I am µmissioned by God¶«Orthodox
Islam must bow to Black Islam (God¶s choice). Arabs misunderstand the
Holy Qur`an when they don¶t accept me [Elijah Muhammad] as a prophet.
Six thousand years ago the black race gave birth to Allah, He is the
mightiest God since creation, born after Yakub. Twenty-four scientists
wrote the Bible and Qu¶ran - one scientist was appointed to be God.
Moses used dynamite with a fuse to kill 300 of his followers.

This is heresy, pure and simple, and under other circumstances for making
claims of this nature one must die.
