to attend flight training and had overstayed a previous visa by a month. Yet, for some strange reason, they let him in, anyway.
Also, why did the Chief INS Officer rip up the Sec. 212(d)(3) Visa Waiver application that he had begun to prepare for Atta? Atta was admitted without the waiver on a regular tourist visa, a visa with a purpose not compatible with flight training which requires approval of an H-3 Trainee Visa.
Yes, they all got CIA visas.
Yes, those Sith Lords.
P.S. Atta got several CIA visas: http://911review.org/JohnDoe2/Atta.html
January - May 2000:
"Indeed he was under CIA surveillance between January and May last year after he was reportedly observed buying large quantities of chemicals in Frankfurt, apparently for the production of explosives and for biological warfare. The US agents reported to have trailed Atta are said to have failed to inform the German authorities about their investigation. »

Comment: It is one thing that the German authorities werent informed, but how did Atta obtain several subsequent visas to the US?
