The Hijackers
From 911myths
Background
At some point I'll summarise the background to the hijackers here. Right now this is really just a starting point to read more about the individual or theory of your choice, though. Keep reading to find out more.
Controversies
- Some suspects were trained by the US military?
- Several suspects were identified by the Able Danger project in 2000?
- Israeli "art students" spied on the hijackers before the attacks?
- The hijackers used drugs, drank alcohol, went to strip clubs?
- There were no hijackers on the 9/11 passenger manifests?
- Could these flight school dropouts really have flown the 9/11 planes?
- The passport recovered from the WTC must have been planted?
- The hijackers couldn't have been identified so quickly?
- Some of those named as hijackers are still alive?
- The FBI chief Robert Mueller said there's doubt over the hijackers identities?
- The hijackers remains can't have been identified by DNA?

Videos
Since 9/11, al-Qaeda have released footage of several of the hijackers. These include a number of video wills, where they talk about jihad and attacking America. Reportedly all but one of the hijackers made a will, so we'd anticipate that others will appear in future 9/11 anniversary releases.
