911 Report: FBI-Informant al-Bayoumi was Saudi Agent

Another FBI asset had also contact to "Hijacker" Hani Hanjour

Exclusive: The 9-11 Report: Slamming the FBI

By Michael Isikoff -Newsweek -July 28 issue -
Update: FBI Informant knew 9/11 Hijackers (AP)

The FBI blew repeated chances to uncover the 9-11 plot because it failed to aggressively investigate evidence of Al Qaeda's presence in the United States, especially in the San Diego area, where two of the hijackers were living with one of the bureau's own informants, according to the congressional report set for release this week.

THE LONG-DELAYED 900-page report also contains potentially explosive new evidence suggesting that Omar al-Bayoumi, a key associate of two of the hijackers, may have been a Saudi-government agent, sources tell NEWSWEEK.


The report documents extensive ties between al-Bayoumi and the hijackers. But the bureau never kept tabs on al-Bayoumi-despite receiving prior information he was a secret Saudi agent, the report says.

In January 2000, al-Bayoumi had a meeting at the Saudi Consulate in Los Angeles-and then went directly to a restaurant where he met future hijackers Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Alhazmi, whom he took back with him to San Diego. (Al-Bayoumi later arranged for the men to get an apartment next to his and fronted them their first two months rent.)

The report is sure to reignite questions about whether some Saudi officials were secretly monitoring the hijackers-or even facilitating their conduct. Questions about the Saudi role arose repeatedly during last year's joint House-Senate intelligence-committees inquiry. But the Bush administration has refused to declassify many key passages of the committees' findings. A 28-page section of the report dealing with the Saudis and other foreign governments will be deleted. "They are protecting a foreign government," charged Sen. Bob Graham, who oversaw the inquiry.

The report criticizes the Pentagon for resisting military strikes against Al Qaeda camps in Afghanistan prior to 9-11, and the CIA for failing to pass along crucial information about Almihdhar and Alhazmi at a terrorists' summit in Malaysia.

But the FBI gets the toughest treatment. A few months after al-Bayoumi took them to San Diego, Almihdhar and Alhazmi moved into the house of a local professor who was a longtime FBI "asset." The prof also had earlier contact with another hijacker, Hani Hanjour. But even though the informant was in regular touch with his FBI handler, the bureau never pieced together that he was living with terrorists. The bureau also failed to pursue other leads, including a local imam who dealt with several key 9-11 figures. The report, one congressional investigator said, "is a scathing indictment of the FBI as an agency that doesn't have a clue about terrorism."

Furious bureau officials say the report misstates the evidence. They say the bureau checked out al-Bayoumi-now back in Saudi Arabia-and concluded he had not given the hijackers "material support." As for Almihdhar and Alhazmi, "there was nothing there that gave us any suspicion about these guys," said one FBI official.

An American's fighter's war in Czechnya

MoscowTimes -Monday, Jul. 21, 2003

Mujahedin circles, however, welcome fellow travelers -- terrorists such as those in al-Qaida -- who Collins says pervert the ideal of jihad by murdering innocents. And so a few years before the Sept. 11 attacks, frustrated at Islam's failure to police its jihad movements, Collins walked into the U.S. Embassy in Azerbaijan.

Soon, back home in America, he was a paid FBI informant moving in circles he said included Hani Hanjour, the man believed to have piloted American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001. An FBI spokesman told The Washington Post that as an asset of the bureau's counterterrorism team in Phoenix, Arizona, from 1996 to 1999, Collins "did some very productive things and helped some cases over the years."

Collins said his undercover work fed into a celebrated pre-Sept. 11 memo out of the Phoenix FBI office that urged a closer look at Arabs in U.S. flight schools. He also said the counterterror work was endlessly, uselessly bureaucratic. An FBI spokesman's only comment was to insist Collins had never mentioned Hanjour before Sept. 11.

Eventually, Collins became as exasperated with American intelligence as he had been with Muslim terrorists. Low on money, having quarreled with everyone -- the CIA, the FBI, Chechen warlords, Azeri gangsters -- his options were dwindling.

So he again reinvented himself and wrote a brisk-selling book.

Report: FBI Informant Knew 9/11 Hijackers

By CURT ANDERSON, Associated Press Writer - Mon, Jul 21, 2003

WASHINGTON - An FBI informant knew two of the Sept. 11 hijackers but never suspected they were terrorists, according to a congressional report that nonetheless concludes no single piece of information could have prevented the attacks.

The unidentified informant was with Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Alhazmi in San Diego during the summer of 2000, although the nature of their relationship was unclear.

Almihdhar and Alhazmi recently had been linked by U.S. intelligence officials to possible terrorist activity, but that information apparently had not been shared with the FBI, the report said. Nothing the two men said or did in the presence of the informant aroused suspicion.

Almihdhar and Alhazmi were aboard American Airlines Flight 77, which crashed into the Pentagon (news - web sites). The informant also may have been introduced to Hani Hanjour, who U.S. officials believe piloted that hijacked plane.
