Informant says FBI threw away chance to catch alleged 9/11 plotter

By Raw Story

Published: September 10, 2009
Updated 1 day ago

A Lebanon-native who pretended to be an Islamic extremist at the behest of American authorities claims that the FBI took him off the trail of alleged 9/11 plotter Mohammed Atta right as a window of opportunity opened to catch him.

Were it not for the FBI’s action, the informant says he is “one million percent positive” the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks could have been prevented.

The claims are part of an ABC News report, set to air on Thursday’s editions of World News Tonight and Nightline.

1. Atta would never have confided in Assad
Assad's cover story was that he was a personal representative of Osama bin Laden, and Atta would have known better or been able to find out.
