Khalid Sheik Mohammed at
http://www.answers.com/topic/khalid-sheikh-mohammed

"He attended Chowan College, a small Baptist school in Murfreesboro, North Carolina, for a few years (beginning in 1983) before transferring to the North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University and completing a degree in mechanical engineering in 1986. The following year he went to Afghanistan and joined the fight against the Soviet Union during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. (Some sources believe he was fighting in Afghanistan before he moved to the United States.) There, he was introduced to Abdul Rasul Sayyaf, the head of the Islamic Union Party. The 9/11 Commission Report notes on page 149 that "Sayyaf was close to Ahmed Shah Massoud, the leader of the Northern Alliance." Mohammed became Sayyaf's principal student. He fought the Soviets for three months."

Now CNN reports a US connection, via North Carolina, to the London bombings
"FBI investigates U.S. lead in bombings
British police seek man who enrolled at NC State University"

The report says he was 'sponsored' by Egypt while in England. Who 'sponsored' him while on a visa in the US ? Same with KSM...
