Strong doubts that alleged hijacker Abdulaziz Al Omari (Hollywood) existed
Advertisements [?]
To make it clear right from the start:
This thread is not about any Saudi-Arabian who has the same name as an alleged hijacker etc.
This thread leaves aside the question if and who of the alleged hijackers used stolen identities, who they really were and if it was them or even somebody else who left all the trail of evidences.
This thread is about the question if Abdulaziz Al Omari from Hollywood ever physically existed. If there is any proof to his existence prior to 911.
It is the logical conclusion of the articles:
“Meet the four unknown ‘hijackers’”
“Vero Beach maybe a center of the 911 story”
“What was going on in Portland”

The first reason for douting Abdulaziz’ existence:
First of all right after 911 not Abdulaziz but Abdul Rahman Al Omari from Vero Beach was in the spotlight as he was named hijacker of AA 11:

A FBI affidavit from September 12, 2001 states officially that the public database search let to him.
http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/atta/resources/documents/fbiaffidavit11.htm

One of two vehicles that had the right to use Abdul Rahman’s parking place belonged to Atta.
http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/atta/resources/documents/fbiaffidavit11.htm
and
http://www.abc.net.au/4corners/atta/resources/documents/fbiaffidavit12.htm

His appartement in Vero Beach was searched in the night to Wednesday.

His name appeared already on September 13 in the news.

He was seen in Portland. As witnesses appear in the media prior to September 14 (when Abdulaziz for the first time appeared) that claim to have seen Al Omari in Portland and there is even a woman telling that he was her boyfriend this certainly doesn’t prove the presence of Abdulaziz from Hollywood but only the strange coincidence that the acclaimed innocent Abdul Rahman was in Portland.
(See “What was going on in Portland”)

Abdul Rahman was on CNN on September 21 stating that his photo was around the world although he was innocent. Even with the kind help of Paul Thompson I wasn’t able to find any photo of Abdul Rahman. Therefore the logical question is if it is not him on the photo that officially shows Abdulaziz.

His neighbour recalled strange late night meetings in his house in Vero Beach.

His ID showed a St Paul address but the landlord said to have never seen him there.
(AP, 9/14/01)

Vero Beach was completely omitted by the FBI (why if there is nothing and Bukhari and Al Omari was just a sad coincidence)?

Three other official hijackers had addresses at Flight Safety Academy in Vero Beach.

His neighbour Bukhari shows suspicious patterns as well:
His rush to flee on September 11.
The fact that Hopkins got fired from FAA as he figured out that Bukhari had attended FAA Academy in Oklahoma.
http://www.osc.gov/documents/press/2001/pr01_25.htm

So: Proof enough that he wasn't and neither Bukhari just an innocent guy. Proof enough that the FBI turns a blind eye on him.


A strangely absent person: Abdulaziz Al Omari
Contrary to Abdul Rahman Abdulaziz is strangely absent and never witnessed.
He appeared only on September 14 when FBI presented its first list.
In accounts from Portland he's strangely absent, too: It's Atta who rented the car, took the hotel room (on September 12, 2001 media accounts only speak of “Atta and another man”).
(See: “What’s going on in Portland”)
The ATM photo from Portland is highly questionable as shown above by the doubts if this photo doesn’t show Abdul Rahman.
He’s never on any video footage (I don't count the flue Jetport video). The Wal Mart footages show only Atta. Other video footages that have been made in Portland never were made public.
The video surveillance at the check inn in Portland Jetport didn't work.
Strange: Finding his passport right away on September 11 didn't help preventing the confusion about his identity. And btw why did the FBI need to search public database if they had the passport of Abdulaziz?

So, while there are many details and suspicion about Abdul Rahman Abdulaziz seems incredibly absent.
In fact if we question his photo the only proof of his existence I found is his visa. Which is certainly not a lot.

On September 21, 2001 CNN reported:
Tonight, law enforcement sources tell me that the suspected hijacker, Abdul Aziz Alomari, is now considered to have played a key role , a significant role in helping to carry out the attack. Now, quoting sources, they call it "a significant role." They say, among other things -- that is because they are continuing to gather evidence -- that he in particular was making more phone calls, more e-mails, made more contacts with other people, purchased airline tickets, for example. And that is one of the reasons they believe that he was a key coordinator of the attacks.
http://cnnstudentnews.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0109/21/tpt.00.html

But nowhere is shown which people he met. No witness quoted who saw Abdulaziz. And that he bought the tickets is highly questionable as it was supposed to Atta who purchased it for him via the web.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/Archive/Article/0,4273,4258191,00.html

And also the famous “key role” Abdulaziz was supposed to have played dropped to the simple role of a muscle (according to the Commission Report). A muscle that had the honour to spend his last night with Atta.
Strange. What happened to the estimation by officials that he had a “key role”?

And while there is nowhere any proof that Al Omari ever lived in Hollywood (the only given location for him).
http://www.fbi.gov/pressrel/pressrel01/092701hjpic.htm

The Commission Report states that he was living already at least since beginning of August in New Jersey. And taking into consideration that he arrived at June 29, 2001 in the US that simply means that he spend at least half of his time in the US in New Jersey. Yet, the FBI only locates him in Hollywood. Him, strange again.
And what about proofs that Abdulaziz was in New Jersey. Well, look for yourself what amazing evidence the Commission has to present:

79.For the apartment rental in New Jersey, see FBI report of investigation, interview of Eyad al Rababah, June 10,2002; FBI report, "Hijackers Timeline,"Dec.5,2003 (May 21,2001,entry citing 265A-NY-280350-302,seri-als 25453,25445).For the landlord finding six people, see FBI report of investigation, interview of Jimi Nouri, Sept.19,2001. Although no specific evidence places Omari in the apartment , the muscle hijackers based in New Jersey likely lived together, as they apparently conducted other activities jointly, such as obtaining identification cards. See,e.g.,FBI report,"Hijackers Timeline,"Dec.5,2003 (July 1, 2001, entries citing 265A-NY-280350-FD-302,serials 4718,11815,20900,21529).
(CR, 523)

That’s really amazing. The Commission contradicts the FBI in their assertion that Abdulaziz lived in Hollywood (no proofs for this at all anyway) and places him in New Jersey. Yet, once again no proof for his presence there.
Hey, what’s up official investigation? Not even able to figure out where an alleged hijacker lived?


But maybe Abdulaziz is just one of many cases where there are no proofs of hijackers presence and whereabouts. Maybe it was part of their tactics.
But this is unfortunately not the case:
It is easy for most of the alleged hijackers to prove their existence. (Remark this doesn’t imply that the alleged hijackers were aboard on 911 and who they really were. We only talk about physical presence of somebody)

Other went to flight school. Many witnesses.
Others were seen by neighbours. Many witnesses.
Others bought flight tickets and paid cash. But Atta bought for Al Omari.
Others went to gyms. Many witnesses.
Apparently all alleged hijackers living in New Jerset went to the gym:
After he returned to New Jersey, Hazmi's behavior began to closely parallel that of the other hijackers. He and Hanjour, for instance, soon established new bank accounts, acquired a mailbox, rented cars, and started visiting a gym. So did the four other hijackers who evidently were staying with them in New Jersey.
(CR, 243)

But not only from the fact that the Commission concedes to have no evidence of Abdulaziz being in New Jersey (and a membership in a gym would certainly be a proof) also newspaper accounts speak of all the other alleged hijackers working out or better said standing around.
But no one mentioned Abdulaziz.

I checked all hijackers if I could find at least one witness for their existence:
And I found proofs for all of them save Abdulaziz.



Therefore the suspicion seems to be well founded and the question urgent:
Does anybody have a proof that Abdulaziz Al Omari from Hollywood existed?
