I really don't have a life, so for "fun" I've been reading the Mid-East newspapers (just to see what's going on there - can't trust the TV). Seems that 5 of the hijackers (including the ringleader) that did this horrible thing on Sept. 11th, have presented themselves in person - alive and well - to the authorities in Saudi.
Seems this main guy (Al Alt or something like that) was in the states, lost his passport when his apartment was ramsacked, reported it to the police, got a new passport, returned to Saudi and has been there since 1999. He's an engineer and all the things they're saying about him. The other four are about in the same shape. He was quoted as saying he was very surprised when he saw his picture slashed across the TV saying he had bombed the WTC. This is really strange now.
Just thought I'd pass that along. It made me wonder what's going on and how much we really do know.
Love you BD
