A chilling inheritance of terror

KARACHI - Ever since the frenzied shootout last month on September
11 in Karachi there have been doubts over whether Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed, the self-proclaimed head of al-Qaeda's military
committee, died in the police raid on his apartment.
Certainly, another senior al-Qaeda figure, Ramzi Binalshibh, widely
attributed as being the coordinator of the September 11 attacks on
the United States a year earlier, was taken alive and handed over
to the US. The latest information is that he is on a US warship
somewhere in the Gulf.
Now it has emerged that Kuwaiti national Khalid Shaikh Mohammed did
indeed perish in the raid, but his wife and child were taken from
the apartment and handed over to the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI), in whose hands they remain.
Sources close to Pakistani intelligence agents say that the wife,
under intense interrogation, has revealed information that is
likely to lead to a new crackdown in Pakistan, as well as in
Southeast Asia.
After the Taliban and al-Qaeda were routed in Afghanistan at the
end of 2001, many fled to Pakistan to regroup and set up new cells.
One of these, as described in Asia Times Online, From the al-Qaeda
puzzle, a picture emerges, was in Karachi, with Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed as its head.
Despite being tracked by informers within Pakistan's Inter-Services
Intelligence (ISI), Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, who has been described
as "probably the only man who knows all the [al-Qaeda] pieces of
the puzzle", always managed to remain one step ahead of any raiding
parties in the slum areas along the coastal belt of Karachi.
However, it was then learned that Shaikh Mohammed had established
connections with some local groups, including underworld figures,
to entrench his cell. Using highly sensitive equipment, in April a
call was tracked to someone by the name of Arif, living in the
densely populated southwestern part of the city. Arif spoke to a
Tunisian, passing on a message from Shaikh Mohammed. Subsequently,
the Tunisian is believed to be the man who rammed a truck laden
with explosives into a Jewish synagogue in Djerba in Tunisia in
which many French and German citizens died.
After this suicide attack, the FBI were onto Shaikh Mohammed in a
big way, and, no doubt not entirely without coincidence, on
September 11 they decided on a showdown at the apartment of Shaikh
Mohammed, his wife and child, in the Defense Housing Authority near
Korangi Road. A number of Arabs were also living in the apartment
at the time.
Initially, the joint ISI-FBI plan was to take Shaikh Mohammed alive
so that he could be grilled, especially as he was believed to have
knowledge of other al-Qaeda cells in Afghanistan, Somalia, Sudan,
Yemen and elsewhere. However, as a plainclothed officer climbed the
stairs toward the third-floor apartment, a hand grenade was thrown,
and he retreated. Reinforcements then arrived, and for the next few
hours a fierce gun battle blazed.
The FBI, still keen to take Shaikh Mohammed alive, teargassed the
area, and a number of people were captured. However, despite
instructions to the contrary, a few Pakistan Rangers entered the
flat, where they found Shaikh Mohammed and another man, allegedly
with their hands up. The Rangers nevertheless opened fire on the pair.
Later, the Pakistani press carried pictures of a message scrawled
in blood on the wall of the flat, proclaiming the Muslim refrain of
Kalma, in Arabic: "There is no God except Allah, Mohammed is his
messenger"). An official who was present in the flat at the time of
the shooting has told Asia Times Online that the message was
written by Shaikh Mohammed with his own blood as his life drained
from him.
Subsequently, to their surprise, the raiders learned that Ramzi
Binalshibh had been netted in the swoop. And nothing further was
said of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed.
But now it emerges that an Arab woman and a child were taken to an
ISI safe house, where they identified the Shaikh Mohammed's body as
their husband and father. The body was kept in a private NGO
mortuary for 20 days before being buried, under the surveillance of
the FBI, in a graveyard in the central district of Karachi.
The widow subsequently underwent exhaustive interrogation in the
custody of FBI officials, during which she revealed details of
people who visited her husband, and of his other contacts and plans.
News of the death of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was intentionally
suppressed so that officials could play on the power of his name to
follow up leads and contacts.
From this it emerges that, in particular, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed
was in close contact with the Rabitatul Mujahideen, an alliance
formed by Indonesia's Jemaah Islamiyah to act as a central
committee for leaders of the various militant groups in Southeast
Asia. He was also in touch with dissident groups within the Lashkar-
i-Taiba, a Pakistani-based militant group that has been active in
Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) in Indian-administered Kashmir, and another
Pakistani militia, the Ansarul Islam.
Intelligence officials now believe that through these links a new
wave of terror will be unleashed - and officials have already taken
the precaution to warn the intelligence agencies of friendly
countries to check the lists of all people who have undergone
flight training in the past six months: They have been led to
believe that another World Trade Center/Pentagon attack is being
planned, although not on a target in the US.

(Above) Mugshot of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed;
(Below) Mugshot of disinformation agent "Neo"
http://www.911blogger.com/node/6928
I must profess embarrassment. After 5 years of 9/11 activism KSM’s
confession today has brought my world crashing down. After years of
paranoid conspiracy theories I must now accept the government’s
word that this confession is the genuine bona fide article – the
final smoking gun behind 9/11.
It is therefore out of respect for our legal system that I will
reproduce KSM’s confession here:
I, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, being of sound mind and body, un-coerced
through torture, and fully enjoying the legal representation and
due process afforded me under the constitution of the United States
of America, hereby confess to the following crimes associated with
9/11:
I confess that in the summer of 2001, I instituted the Visa Express
Program in Saudi Arabia which allowed terrorists to enter the
United States without even being interviewed by a consular officer.
The Visa Express Program was ONLY instituted in Saudi Arabia, and
no such privileges were extended to other US allies in Europe or
the Middle East – ONLY Saudi Arabia, a country known to have a
large population of Muslim fundamentalists hostile to the United
States, and loyal to Osama Bin Laden.
I confess that when Consular representatives objected to this
practice I posed as Richard Armitage (a member of the Project for
the New American Century) and wrote a letter in his name defending
the practice. Stating:
"Unfortunately, the information we have received from Foreign
Terrorist Tracking Task Force so far has been insufficient to
permit a consular officer to deny a visa. The information we have
received states only that the FTTTF believes the applicants may
pose a threat to national security."
When a top secret Pentagon program “Able Danger” got wind of known
Al Qaeda terrorists residing in Florida, and learned that they were
taking flight lessons, they quickly dispatched officers, including
Lt. Col Anthony Shaffer, to meet with SOCOM in Florida. I confess
that I posed as an ‘unnamed’ two star general who warned Shaffer
that he would lose his job if he continued to pursue action on
Mohammad Atta. In fact, I ordered him to place yellow stickers over
Atta’s face on the large chart Able Danger had prepared identifying
the terrorists.
I confess that I have destroyed Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer’s career
by placing him on administrative leave, taking his health benefits,
pension and salary away – and slapping a gag order on him
prohibiting him from talking about the incident.
I confess that I infiltrated the 911 Commission and erased all
knowledge and references to Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer and Able
Danger in their final report.
I confess that when known Al Qaeda terrorists arrived in San Diego
I posed as a professor of English Abdussattar Shaikh – a known FBI
asset – met them at the airport and housed them under my own roof.
I possessed a phony diploma from a phony college with known
military-intelligence connections.
I confess that when the hijackings were underway I prevented the US
Airforce from scambling jets to protect Washington DC – despite the
nearly 90 minutes warning they received.
I confess that I had the Pentagon ‘stand down’ its anti-aircraft
batteries, allowing the plane to hit.
I confess that I secretly tutored Hijacker Hani Honjour (who could
not even fly a single engine Cessna) to fly a wide-bodied jet, with
all its modern instrumentation aboard, from Ohio to Washington DC,
evading radar and the United States Air Force the entire way, and
hitting the Pentagon with pinpoint accuracy, executing a flight
maneuver that even experienced pilots claim they would have
difficulty executing.
I confess that – out of compassion - I arranged for the one section
of the Pentagon that was struck to be nearly empty due to
renovations (to reinforce walls with blast resistant Kevlar).
I confess that I secretly worked with esteemed physicist Stephen
Hawking to change the laws of physics and caused 3 buildings in NYC
to collapse at near free-fall speed, despite the internally
redundant and massive core columns which were unaffected by damage
and fire.
I confess that I slipped President George W. Bush pharmaceutical
grade LSD on the morning of 9/11, causing him to sit enraptured
over a pet goat story depicted in a children’s book, despite being
told by his chief of staff that “America Is Under Attack.”
I confess that I hindered the investigations into Zacarias Mousoui
by re-writing and removing key evidence from the subpoena to search
his laptop, despite over 70 warnings that he was planning air piracy.
I confess that I removed military-grade anthrax from the army’s Ft.
Detrick, MD laboratories, and mailed it to liberal democrats in
Congress who were threatening to slow down passage of the Patriot Act.
I confess that I ordered Dick Cheney’s staff to begin taking the
anti-anthrax antibiotic Cipro just days before the first of the
anthrax letters were mailed.
I confess that I fabricated all the links between Iraq and Al Qaeda
and WMDs and 9/11, confusing the American public into launching a
catastrophically ill-advised war in Iraq.
I confess that I distracted nearly everyone in the chain of command
on 911, so that none of them were available to take action on that
morning.
I confess that I scheduled a meeting between the acting head of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff and Max Clellan, so that he was unaware of
the attacks until after the Pentagon was hit.
I confess that I forced Donald Rumsfeld to sit inactive at his desk
on 9/11 until after the Pentagon was hit.
I confess that I made the secret service sit inactive, failing to
protect the president and remove him from his Sarasota school photo-
op, until after the Pentagon was hit.
I confess that I ordered all the top brass in the Pentagon on
September 10th to cancel their travel plans for the next day.
I confess that I made General Winfield (in charge of the Pentagon
war room) request a rookie stand in for him on the morning of
September 11th. I had him put this request in on the evening of
September 10th.
I confess that I ordered multiple simultaneous war games for the
morning of September 11th that mirrored the hijackings themselves -
confused air traffic controllers.
I confess that I ordered multiple drills for the morning of
September 11th, including FEMA being pre-placed in Manhattan – and
emergency personnel pre-placed in Washington DC preparing for a
scenario of a plane hitting the CIA building.
I confess that made Donald Rumsfeld address congress at 8am on the
morning of 9/11, and warn them that soon something ‘shocking’ would
happen soon.
I confess that I published the infamous Project For The New
American Century document that described the need for a
“catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor.”
I confess that I forced the president to ignore dozens or warnings,
including his August 6th presidential briefing entitled, “Bin Laden
Determined to Strike in the US”
I confess that I forced NORAD to provide 3 timelines of events for
that day, all of which have been proven to be inaccurate.
I confess that I hindered the president in his attempts to capture
Osama Bin Laden for the last 5 years.
I confess that I hindered the president in his attempts to rescue
people in New Orleans.
I confess that I personally signed legislation destroying the
United States Constitution – removing civil liberties and due process.
I confess that I mesmerized the American media into NOT ASKING
QUESTIONS about 9/11.
I confess that I placed Cointelpro operatives throughout the 911
Truth movement to distract them with tales of holograms, space
beams, TVFakery and American Idol.
I confess that I killed O.J. Simpson’s wife.
I confess that I kidnapped the Lindberg baby.
I confess that I am the Zodiac killer.
I confess that I fired the fatal headshot in the JFK assassination.
