In reply to the discussion: Counterterrorism Czar Accuses Tenet and CIA of 9/11 Cover-Up [View all]Bolo Boffin

From this press release on the death of Bin Laden, it is clear that the FBI considered him a person of interest in the 9/11 attacks. Indeed, he had already been indicted for the embassy bombings in 2001, but the FBI added him to the Top Ten list in October 2001, a response to the 9/11 attacks.
You should drop your silly claims about the wanted poster. The FBI knew bin Laden was responsible for 9/11 and would have charged him with that crime had he been in their custody.
Now please do answer my question. I continue to answer yours, but you keep avoiding mine.
Which Al Qaeda attacks, small or large, involved airplanes?
The mastermind of the attacks on September 11, 2001 that killed thousands of innocent men, women, and children has been killed.
...Well before the events of 9/11, bin Laden had openly declared war on the U.S. and was committed to killing innocents. His al Qaeda group was responsible for the 1998 bombings of the U.S. Embassies in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Nairobi, Kenya. The attacks killed over 200 people. Bin Laden was indicted for his role in planning the attacks and added to the FBIs Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list in 1999.
Intelligence agencies quickly learned that the 9/11 attacks were carried out by bin Ladens terrorist organization, and in October 2001, his name was added to the U.S. Department of States Most Wanted Terrorists List.

So the USS Cole attack is not a significant attack and did not involve American casualties?

"according to Sunder, the explosions were silent which is why no one could hear them on 9/11."
