New transcripts released by the Pentagon show that the man considered to be the chief mastermind behind the Sept. 11 attacks, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, has admitted he is responsible for the terrorist attacks from "a to z".
Mohammed has also acknowledged being responsible for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, as well as other attempted terrorist attacks around the world in the years since.
The confessions come from a transcript of a hearing held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, Saturday in which the Al Qaeda terrorist also acknowledged a plot to assassinate Bill Clinton while the former president was visiting the Philippines in 1994. The transcripts also show Mohammed admitted to plotting the October 2002 terrorist attack in Bali, Indonesia.
The admissions came during what was the first military hearing for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and 13 other major detainees since they were transferred last September from secret CIA prisons overseas into military custody at Guantanamo Bay.
He went before what is known as a Combatant Status Review Tribunal, the first step toward a possible war crimes trial.

5. Perhaps he was "pursuaded" to confess to all of these things..... |
|
by the wonderful hospitality received at Guantanamo (NOT). Can you say "water-boarding"???

14. From reading that story, what DIDN'T he "confess" to masterminding? |
|
9/11, the WTC bombing, plots to assassinate Clinton, "other" bombings, this bombing, that bombing, and a bomb-ing in a pear tree... Wow, he's sure a busy guy, isn't he?
And, BTW, haven't the FReepers been claiming for years that al-Quaida LOVES Bill Clinton? Now this guy claims they were plotting to whack him! ROFL! I can't wait to see how they try to reconcile that- it'll probably be a good one!

electric shock hypothermia sleep deprivation and sensory overload then withdrawal anal rape beatings and drugs
What did they use to get this confession?
Didn't McCain confess to being a war criminal and a murderer at the hands of the Vietnamese?
I hate these bastards and will never be able to trust them or their results.

They are now saying he is responsible for Richard Reid trying to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight with explosives hidden in his shoes.

10. More fodder for the Bush grandfathers and grandmothers who call |
|
Edited on Wed Mar-14-07 07:01 PM by higher class
in to moan about how awful Kg. Bush is treated. They should be breathing more deeply this evening and can rise to call in again to Praise the Lord, the Lord who gave them George Bush to fight those bad people.
Moslems - bad. People who criticize the President - bad. People who fight to save the country - bad. Christian supporters of the President - good.

Another 'fall guy.' I wonder how much water boarding it took for Khalid to confess? Guess we don't have to worry about Bin Laden anymore. :dem:

12. but how did he arrange the air defense execises? |
|
northern vigilance/guardian and all that? they effectively prevented routine AF defenses from working on 911! And, how did he stop the pigmedia from mentioning the fact that the air defenses were 'preoccupied' that sept morning? Does he have pics of all the men who run the newsmedia? EVERYONE OF THEM? And what kinda pics are they: murdock etc raping and murdering a toddler? They'd have to be something very bad, or the media would 'get the scoop'! http://www.cooperativeresearch.org/timeline.jsp?before_9/11=militaryExercises&timeline=complete_911_timeline
