-Retweet9/11 Hijackers' Motivations

Fri, Sep 8, 2006 at 12:19:58 pm PDT

In their article on the newly released video of Osama bin Laden meeting with two 9/11 hijackers, JihadTV’s headline is inadvertently revealing: Al-Qaeda video takes credit for 9/11. (Hat tip: Sweetness and Light.)

“Takes credit?

But even more interesting is a bit of information that Western media hasn’t mentioned. Seems the 9/11 mass murderers were motivated by a desire to avenge Muslims ... in Bosnia, where the US went to war to protect Muslims.

I’m getting a headache.

The 90-minute video apparently shows bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda, taking part in the planning and preparation of the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people.

The footage, first aired on Thursday, also shows Abu Hafsa al-Masri, al-Qaeda’s then military leader, and Ramzi bin al-Shaiba, co-ordinator of the 9/11 attacks, meeting in al-Qaeda’s training camps in Taliban controlled Afghanistan.

The tape also says that a previous unknown Arab Islamist, Abu al-Turab al-Urduni, supervised the training for the attacks.

The video said the preparation for the attacks included not only flight training but also lessons in street-fighting and how to forge official documents.

The video also showed two of the 19 Islamists who took part in the attacks, Saudi nationals Hamza al-Ramdi and Wael el-Shemari.

The men said that their actions were inspired by an urge to avenge the suffering of Muslims in Bosnia and Chechnya.
