Independent researchers obtained an uncensored copy.<\/p>\n<p>The filing is a 21-page declaration by Don Canestraro, a lead investigator for the Office of Military Commissions, the legal body overseeing the cases of 9\/11 defendants. It summarizes classified government discovery disclosures, and private interviews Canestraro conducted with anonymous high-ranking CIA and FBI officials. Many agents who spoke to Canestraro headed up Operation Encore, the Bureau\u2019s long-running investigation into Saudi government connections to the 9\/11 attack.<\/p>\n<p>Canestraro reportedly found that two of the 9\/11 hijackers had been recruited either knowingly or unknowingly into a joint CIA-Saudi intelligence operation which may have gone awry.<\/p>\n<p>Until March 2022, when a large

noopener\"><strong>Firstpost<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong>The two pilots<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Activities of Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar in the 18 months preceding the day of 9\/11 attacks are one of the numerous persistent mysteries that have not yet been fully clarified more than 20 years later.<\/p>\n<p>Despite being repeatedly recognised by the CIA and NSA as potential Al Qaeda terrorists prior to their arrival into the US in January 2000, the pair entered the country on multiple-entry visas, documents revealed.<\/p>\n<p>They attended an Al Qaeda gathering in Kuala Lumpur just days prior to their arrival, where important decisions regarding the 9\/11 attacks are thought to have been made.<\/p>\n<p>The CIA\u2019s Alec Station, a special unit set up to follow Osama bin Laden, requested that Malaysian authorities discreetly picture and record the meeting. Oddly, no audio was recorded.<\/p>\n<p>However, this information should have been enough to deter Hazmi and Midhar from entering the US, or at the very least, to alert the FBI to their presence.<\/p>\n<p>As it transpired, the CIA prevented Bureau representatives in Alec Station from informing their superiors about their admission for a six-month period without incident at Los Angeles International airport.<\/p>\n<p>The documents reveal that one officer named Mark Rossini, who was then a member of Alec Station tried to warn FBI about the two men and the fact that they had multiple entry visa to the US.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve got to tell the Bureau about this. These guys clearly are bad. One of them, at least, has a multiple-entry visa to the US. We\u2019ve got to tell the FBI,\u201d Mark recalled discussing with his colleagues. \u201c[But the CIA] said to me, \u2018No, it\u2019s not the FBI\u2019s case, not the FBI\u2019s jurisdiction.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As soon as they arrived, Omar al-Bayoumi, a Saudi national who lives in California, was contacted by Hazmi and Midhar in an airport caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>He co-signed their lease, paid them $1,500 towards their rent, helped them find an apartment in San Diego over the course of the following two weeks, and introduced them to Anwar al-Awlaki, an imam at a nearby mosque.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, a US drone strike in Yemen resulted in the death of Al-Awlaki.<\/p>\n<p>After 9\/11, Operation Encore, an FBI investigation into possible Saudi participation in the attacks, naturally turned its attention to Bayoumi.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that he met Hazmi and Midhar by accident in a 2003 interview with Riyadh-based investigators. He said he overheard them speaking Arabic, realised they couldn\u2019t speak English, and decided to help them out of kindness.<\/p>\n<p>The Bureau came to a quite different conclusion: Bayoumi was a Saudi intelligence agent and a component of a larger militant Wahhabist network operating in the US that dealt with a wide range of potential and real terrorists and kept tabs on anti-Riyadh dissidents\u2019 overseas activities.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, both the Saudi government and Encore believed there was a 50\/50 possibility he knew of the 9\/11 attacks before they occurred.<\/p>\n<p>The recently made public Guantanamo Military Commission document provides additional insight about Bayoumi\u2019s interactions with Hazmi and Midhar, the CIA\u2019s intense interest in them, their activities during their stay in the US, and their failure to inform the FBI of their presence until late August 2001.<\/p>\n<p>The content strongly implies that the CIA hindered official investigations to hide its infiltration of Al Qaeda based on an examination of classified information maintained by the FBI and Pentagon, as well as interviews with representatives of both agencies.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>About Alec Station from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thegrayzone.com\/2023\/04\/18\/9-11-hijackers-cia-recruits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>The GRAYZONE<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong>A most \u2018unusual\u2019 CIA unit<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Alec Station\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.9-11commission.gov\/hearings\/hearing8\/tenet_statement.pdf\">formal remit<\/a>\u00a0was to track bin Laden, \u201ccollect intelligence on him, run operations against him, disrupt his finances, and warn policymakers about his activities and intentions.\u201d These activities would naturally entail enlisting informants within Al Qaeda.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, as several high level sources told Canestraro, it was extremely \u201cunusual\u201d for such an entity to be involved in gathering intelligence and recruiting assets. The US-based unit was run by CIA analysts, who do not typically manage human assets. Legally, that work is the exclusive preserve of case officers \u201ctrained in covert operations\u201d and based overseas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCS-10\u201d, a CIA case officer within Alec Station, concurred with the proposition that Hazmi and Mihdhar enjoyed a relationship with the CIA through Bayoumi, and was baffled that the unit was tasked with attempting to penetrate Al Qaeda in the first place. They felt it \u201cwould be nearly impossible\u2026to develop informants inside\u201d the group, given the \u201cvirtual\u201d station was based in a Langley basement, \u201cseveral thousand miles from the countries where Al Qaeda was suspected of operating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCS-10\u201d further testified that they \u201cobserved other unusual activities\u201d at Alec Station. Analysts within the unit \u201cwould direct operations to case officers in the field by sending the officers cables instructing them to do a specific tasking,\u201d which was \u201ca violation of CIA procedures.\u201d Analysts \u201cnormally lacked the authority to direct a case officer to do anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCS-11\u201d, a CIA operations specialist posted to Alec Station \u201csometime prior to the 9\/11 attacks\u201d said they likewise \u201cobserved activity that appeared to be outside normal CIA procedures.\u201d Analysts within the unit \u201cmostly stuck to themselves and did not interact frequently\u201d with others. When communicating with one another through internal cables, they also used operational pseudonyms, which \u201cCS-11\u201d described as peculiar, as they were not working undercover, \u201cand their employment with the CIA was not classified information.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The unit\u2019s unusual operational culture may explain some of the stranger decisions made during this period vis a vis Al Qaeda informants. In early 1998, while on a CIA mission to penetrate London\u2019s Islamist scene, a\u00a0 joint FBI-CIA informant named Aukai Collins received a stunning offer: bin Laden himself wanted him to go to Afghanistan so they could meet.<\/p>\n<p>Collins\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/360081020\">relayed the request<\/a>\u00a0to his superiors. While the FBI was in favor of infiltrating Al Qaeda\u2019s base, his CIA handler nixed the idea, saying, \u201cthere was no way the US would approve an American operative going undercover into Bin Laden\u2019s camps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, in June 2001, CIA and FBI analysts from Alec Station met with senior Bureau officials, including representatives of its own Al Qaeda unit. The CIA shared three photos of individuals who attended the Kuala Lumpur meeting 18 months earlier, including Hazmi and Mihdhar. However, as an FBI counter-terror officer codenamed \u201cCS-15\u201d recalled, the dates of the photos and key details about the figures they depicted were not revealed. Instead, the analysts simply asked if the FBI \u201cknew the identities of the individuals in the photos.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another FBI official present, \u201cCS-12\u201d, offers an even more damning account. The Alec Station analysts not only failed to offer biographical information, but falsely implied one of the individuals might be Fahd Al-Quso, a suspect in the bombing of the USS Cole. What\u2019s more, they outright refused to answer any\u00a0questions related to the photographs. Nonetheless, it was confirmed that no system was in place to alert the FBI if any of the three entered the US \u2013 a \u201cstandard investigative technique\u201d for terror suspects.<\/p>\n<p>Given Hazmi and Mihdhar appeared to be simultaneously working for Alec Station in some capacity, the June 2001 meeting may well have been a dangle. No intelligence value could be extracted from inquiring whether the Bureau knew who their assets were, apart from ascertaining if the FBI\u2019s counter-terror team was aware of their identities, physical appearances, and presence in the US.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>About the cover-up from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.floridabulldog.org\/2023\/04\/ex-fbi-agents-accuse-top-cia-fbi-officials-9-11-coverup-cia-domestic-spying\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Florida Bulldog<\/strong><\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>While most criticism in the declaration is directed at the CIA, higher ups at the FBI were also targets of the FBI agents\u2019 complaints.<\/p>\n<p>An ex-agent in the bureau\u2019s Washington Field Office referred to as CS-9, was part of a squad tasked with investigating leads developed after the attacks. CS-9 told Canestraro that \u201cagents were told they were not permitted to interview Saudi nationals in support of their investigation. CS-9 stated that many of the leads developed during his\/her investigation pointed toward the Saudi diplomats stationed in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n<p>Another former FBI agent, CS-4, who in the spring of 2002 supervised two other FBI agents assigned to the CIA\u2019s UBL Station, stated that \u201cCS-3 approached him\/her and said, \u2018Boss, something is bothering me big time\u2026we [meaning the United States government] could have prevented the 9\/11 attacks.\u201d CS-3 then outlined the CIA intelligence that showed Hazmi and Mihdhar had attended the Malaysian al Qaeda meeting, that the CIA knew in January 2001 that both men had multiple entry visas to the U.S. and that his FBI colleague had written a report on the future hijackers that \u201cwas not distributed on orders from one of the analysts at UBL Station.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>CS-3 gave his supervisor a draft of the report. The supervisor, a male, asked who else knew about it. CS-3 said just him and the colleague who wrote it. The supervisor said he then contacted FBI deputy director for counterterrorism Pasquale D\u2019Amuro saying he needed to meet right away. The supervisor hopped in his car and \u201cat a high rate of speed\u201d drove to FBI headquarters where he met with D\u2019Amuro and gave him the secret UBL report on Hazmi and Mihdhar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cD\u2019Amuro read the cable then told CS-4, \u2018I will take care of this,\u2019 the declaration says. \u201cCS-4 noted that D\u2019Amuro never mentioned the cable\u2019s existence\u201d again.<\/p>\n<p>A short time later, though, CS-4 was promoted out of UBL Station to a senior liaison position outside of the FBI. He hadn\u2019t asked for a promotion and told Canestraro he felt he was moved away from UBL Station because he \u201cknew about the existence\u201d of the CIA\u2019s secret report on Hazmi and Mihdhar. CS-4 added he believed he was moved to ensure he \u201ckept silent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ex-FBI agent CS-23 said that when the FBI became aware of Omar Bayoumi\u2019s affiliation with Saudi Intelligence and the CIA\u2019s recruitment operation through Bayoumi after 9\/11, \u201csenior FBI officials suppressed investigations into the above. CS-23 also told me that FBI agents testifying before (Congress\u2019s) Joint Inquiry into the 9\/11 attacks were instructed not to reveal the full extent of Saudi involvement with Al-Qaeda,\u201d Canestraro\u2019s declaration says.<\/p>\n<p>The declaration does not say who ordered FBI field agents investigating 9\/11 not to interview Saudi nationals or other agents to lie to Congress \u2013 or why.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/breakingdigest.com\/declassified-court-filings-reveals-that-two-9-11-hijackers-were-cia-agents\/\">https:\/\/breakingdigest.com\/declassified-court-filings-reveals-that-two-9-11-hijackers-were-cia-agents\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-185728","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185728","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=185728"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185728\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=185728"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=185728"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=185728"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
