9/11 Unveiled (Part 4 of 10): The Hijackers
by Enver Masud
On September 12, 2001 ABC News reported that “investigators have identified all the hijackers”.
Among those identified was “Satam Suqami, a Saudi national on American Airlines Flight 11, whose passport was [miraculously] recovered in the rubble.”
The next day, FBI Director Robert S. Mueller announced that the FBI had “identified most of the hijackers responsible”. Mueller is reported to have said (CBS, 60 Minutes II, September 10, 2003):
A flight attendant on American Flight 11, Amy Sweeney, had the presence of mind to call her office as the plane was hijacked and give them the seat numbers of the hijackers.
Peter Finn and Charles Lane wrote that an attendant on Flight 11 used a cell phone (Washington Post, October 6, 2001), but six years later, the FBI admitted that two low-altitude calls from Flight 93 were the only cell phone calls made from all four of the 9/11 planes (Griffin, Canadian, October 8, 2007).
If an Airfone was used, billing records could provide confirmation of Sweeney’s phone call.
On September 21, 2001, Nick Hopkins of the Guardian reported:
After analysis of the passenger lists of the four hijacked flights and other immigration documents, investigators identified Salem Al-Hazmi and Abdulaziz Al-Omari as two of the terrorists.
The real Salem Al-Hazmi, however, is alive and indignant in Saudi Arabia, and not one of the people who perished in the American Airlines flight that crashed on the Pentagon
On September 23, 2001 BBC News reported that four of the hijack “suspects”—Waleed Al Shehri, Abdulaziz Al Omari, Saeed Alghamdi, and possibly Khalid Al Midhar were—alive, and Director Mueller acknowledged “that the identity of several of the suicide hijackers is in doubt.”
The same day, David Harrison of the Telegraph reported:
The men—all from Saudi Arabia—spoke of their shock at being mistakenly named by the FBI as suicide terrorists. None of the four was in the United States on September 11 and all are alive in their home country.
On September 17, 2001, the Associated Press published passenger lists for AA Flight 11, UA Flight 175, AA Flight 77, and UA Flight 93, based on information supplied by “family members, friends, co-workers and law enforcement”—the same list appears on CNN and the websites of several other news organizations.
There were no Arab names on these lists!
The “terrorist ringleader Mohamed Atta”—identified by a suitcase and will allegedly left behind at Boston airport (Peter Finn, Washington Post, October 6, 2001)—was not listed on the passenger list for American Airlines Flight 11.
Hani Hanjour’s “name was not on the American Airlines manifest for the flight because he may not have had a ticket” according to the Washington Post. How then did he get on the flight?
The passenger lists published by the Associated Press, USA Today, and others note that these are, “Partial lists of passengers and crew killed in Tuesday’s terrorist attacks, according to family members, friends, coworkers and local law enforcement.”
“This is a very strange way to source such information,” said Gerard Holmgren. He asks,
Why not get it from American Airlines or the FBI? If neither of these were consulted, how did USAT know who’s “family members, friends, co-workers” to go looking for? Or if AA and the FBI were the first source of inquiry, why a partial list from hearsay sources?
Gary North, an historian, also expressed concern:
How did the airlines know how many people were on each of these flights? The airlines must have had a list for each flight. What possible reason could they have had for not releasing the full lists?
On April 19, 2002, Mueller said in speech at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco,
In our investigation, we have not uncovered a single piece of paper—either here in the United States, or in the treasure trove of information that has turned up in Afghanistan and elsewhere—that mentioned any aspect of the September 11 plot.
In July of 2006, in connection with the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui—the “20th hijacker,” the U.S. government published documents containing the names of the alleged hijackers, and aircraft layouts showing the seats occupied by the hijackers.
The 9/11 Commission Report, published July 22, 2004, left unresolved the discrepancies in the passenger lists.
Jerry Markon and Timothy Dwyer wrote (Washington Post, March 21, 2006):
An FBI agent who interrogated Zacarias Moussaoui before Sept. 11, 2001, warned his supervisors more than 70 times that Moussaoui was a terrorist and spelled out his suspicions that the al-Qaeda operative was plotting to hijack an airplane, according to federal court testimony yesterday.
Lawyers for Moussaoui who pleaded guilty, and is the only person criminally charged by the U.S. with participating in 9/11, allege that the government knew more about the conspiracy than did the defendant (CNN, February 2, 2006).

From multiple sources , I understand that the pilot, co-pilot, hands over a final list before take-off, with the final count and the names and details of all passegers on-board, in case there is an accident. Automatic.
This is something done for EVERY FLIGHT in the USA. Where is the final list, and what does it say, for each of the flights in question??? Since before there was a problem (once in the air) this is mandatory and would have been done. Why is no-one harping on this???
Alex, it’s basic questions like this that were never answered. (Let’s not even address basic physics.) I saw four lists printed at the time and downloaded them, but I don’t recall them being released by the airlines. Maybe they were. The reason given that they wanted to protect the families’ privacy. The ‘notice next of kin’ thing.
But in real life, that’s a 24-hour embargo. Death notices are public notices, public records. Without them, banks would never know to seal an account for estate tax purposes. Social Security would never know if benefits should be paid. Ditto insurance companies, etc. If someone dies in testate, and without family, the government picks up the cost of burial.
Death records are public records.
So, Alex, who do the pilot and co-pilot hand this final list to? What person? In what capacity?
Because there were no highjackers/terrorists and this guys article stinks to high heaven of a 9/11 trojan horse. (Yawn!)
DDL, you’re either a paid shill, or your IQ does go much higher than the speed limit.
“Where Did The Towers Go” Dr Judy Wood . Read this book if you want the truth.
The buildings did not collapse, they turned to dust, before they ever hit the ground.
Jim
Yes they did turn to dust – because the were “Nuclearly Vaporized.” Judy Wood will NEVER provide the truth because she is caught up in her DEW limited hangout that DOESN’T support any of the evidence of GZ. Infact, her laughable hangout supports NONE of the GZ evidence. Where did this “energy” come from, and “how” was it directed? And what laws of science support her BS claims?Oh wait – you don’t know because she can’t tell you. Because they don’t exist. Dr Judy Wood and Dr Steven Jones should get married because between their pathetic “thermite/DEW” limited hangouts, they could start a new mindless reality show – “Dancing With The Clueless.”
Heres the truth Jimmy start arresting the criminals that are already proven to have connection and the others will follow ….”just like any other criminal gangs” WTF Americans can not be this docile???? can they Jimmy??? Time for all the debating to stop and just “DO IT”….wasting time talking ………
“9/11 Unveiled Pt 1 of 1″
I can give you the details of 9/11 in “one” part, not ten. And everything in my “one” part is confirmed by facts, or confirmed by (lack there of) unsubstantiated claims by the US regime. If you can’t prove something, it doesn’t exist.
The PTB planned 9/11 for over 10 years, using the 1993 WTC bombing and the Oklahoma bombing as a pretext (trial run) for their big dance. Small micro-nukes were used in Oklahoma as proven by the fact that the truck bomb couldn’t possibly have produced the massive destruction to the building and the fact that the FBI was seen carting away “unused nukes.”
The PTB had numerous reasons for nuking the three skyscrapers in New York, we’ll just name a few;
1. 2.3 trillion missing off the pentagons books
2. 280 million of the “black eagle or vulcan” fund (gold stolen from Germany and Japan after WW II, used to fund CIA black ops and bring down the USSR.
3. Hide the securities transactions that would have transpired on 9/12/01 involving said funds.
4. Secure American’s hatered of Muslums.
5. Secure the passage of The Patriot Act to start eliminating Americans freedoms in the name of National Security.
6. To invent Al Quada as a “fake” bogeyman to terrorize the American sheep into submission of all of what they thought they held dear.
7. To get American sheep to rally around the flag and support a BS invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq to further the PTB’s chokehold on the middle east.
8. To expand that chokehold on Egypt, Libya, Syria and eventually, Iran.
9. To replace all of the middle east’s “dictators” with US Regime approved criminals beholdened to TPTB.
10. To continue the US regimes radiation experiments on not only the US military, but the US civilian population aka “Nuclear 9/11.”
11. To infiltrate and even create 9/11 (fake) truth movements to help spread the disinformation to the masses.
12. To hide the FACT that the US regime is the ONLY regime in the world that has not only “nuked” people halfway around the planet, but has gleefully “nuked” it’s own citizens and kept a straight face.
So there you have it – 9/11 in ONE small article – so, tell me, who are YOU going to vote for?

no NC Bill just a “sham” yes and to bad too huh………America once the country that everyone looked up too, and trusted …now just a laughing stock for the world……
I have a friend who has a cousin who knows a guy who says alqaeda did it but the us knew from the mossad what was exactly happening all along. One of the hijackers was a Lebanese, right? he had an uncle who was a mossad informer. the hijacker bragged to his uncle -or said farewell- and presto! so its practically the same shit. They let it happen and even aided them because they figured it was convenient for their imperialistic agenda. treason. its easier to see it all
this way, less headaches figuring shit out
Would a Jew tell you the whole truth about 9/11? Enver masud is an anagram for never dum(b)as(s). I kid, of course, jews are lovely people…. Smiles
