"9/11 Hijackers May Have Gone Through Iran"

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran said Sunday some al-Qaida operatives blamed for the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States may have illegally passed through Iran from Afghanistan months before the terror strike, but Tehran dismissed as "fabrications" U.S. reports that Iran may have helped in the assault.

"It's normal that five or six people may have crossed the border within a couple of months without our knowledge. ... Our borders are long and it's not possible to fully control them," Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi told reporters.

Asefi was responding to a September 11 Commission report, expected out Thursday, that says Iran may have facilitated the 2001 attacks in the United States by providing eight to 10 al-Qaida hijackers with safe passage to and from terrorist training camps in Afghanistan.

"Even more people may (illegally) cross the border between Mexico and the United States," he said.

1. 9/11 hijackers DID go through san diego..
fortunately, we have a pretty strong military presence, so I don't foresee shrub calling for an attack on the city.

Lest we not forget the smell of day old fish surrounding the whole 911 tragedy. They went through here plenty 'nuff times... and several FBI investigations into Saudi Binladen connections were effectively killed by higher levels.....
