"Al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui testified Monday that he and would-be shoe bomber Richard Reid were supposed to hijack a fifth airplane on Sept. 11, 2001, and fly it into the White House. "

So we still wonder where Flight 93 was headed. The Capital building?

Two crashed in NYC, one hit the Pentagon, and the fourth crashed into the ground in the field. Either someone really hates dirt or it was crashed after the hijacking went horribly wrong.

Well, theres still the option of the US airforce shooting it down, then again, dirt sucks.

No because then he couldn't have lit his shoes on fire, thus earning him the honour that comes with a Darwin Award.

So, if you get arrested, it means that the court can skip over 'due process' and get down to business, thusly shoving you into a jail cell to rot until a disgruntled guard is transferred to the prison and decides to you use as 'target practice'. Now, that'll help to 'take care of things', won't it? :p

How can you have missed the various tapes, documentaries and other snippets for four and a half years now?

They don't get poor training in those camps. US Soldiers fighting in the invasion of Afghanistan have time and time again said how tough the AQ people were. They aimed well, they had good morale and they knew their tactics.
Add to that the footage of people leaping through hoops, climbing up all sorts of obstacles and so on, and you can assume that he's physically fit.

Hell, if someone looks like this (http://www.terrorismcentral.com/Library/Biographies/Bios/Moussaoui/Moussaoui.jpg), I'd still put my money on him even if he hadn't had any training at all.

Either someone really hates dirt or it was crashed after the hijacking went horribly wrong.
The plane crashed because the passengers on the plane got up from their seats and tried to fight the hijackers. Or that is what the American government tells us. Some eye-witnesses say that they saw debris falling from the plane before the actual aircraft crashed, meaning that the plane might have been shot down. You can read some conspiracy theories about it here: http://www.flight93crash.com/

Oh yah? What happened to the other 4?Two crashed in NYC, one hit the Pentagon, and the fourth crashed into the ground in the field. Either someone really hates dirt or it was crashed after the hijacking went horribly wrong.I think the question (which hasn't been answered yet) was "What happened to the other four hijackers [in his 'team']?"

Actually, that's partially answered by his assertion that the 'Shoe Bomber' guy was supposed to be one of them, isn't it?

I personally always assumed that he was the 'missing' hijacker for the Pennsylvania crash, though, which might mean that there's another missing one.

Total speculation, of course, and utterly marred as authoritative opinion by the simple fact that I've not really been paying attention to the whole business, merely making snap assumptions to the odd bit of information I've half-absorbed from the TV.

Oh, and the fact that either himself (wishing to muddy the waters, having already been ready and willing to die for his cause and having nothing to lose) or the authorities (consciously or unconsciously pressuring him to givem them some more statements to hint at "clear and present danger") might have prompted him to come up with the recent statements. Maybe he was just "plane #4, hijacker #5"...

Has anyone else considered that he's lying?

I know that he's verified as part of Al Qaeda, I don't question that.

I know that he wanted to kill Americans. I don't question that, either.

I think he's pulling the connection to Richard Reed out of his Islamic hindquarters. What does he gain by making a confession now?

He draws attention toward himself.
He starts people looking for immigrants that went through pilot training.
He just about ensures his execution, or at the very least his incarceration until they think they have every scrap of knowledge he holds.
He gives the appearance of selling out Al Qaeda, if not actually doing it.


On the surface, it just doesn't make any sense for him to sing this tune. Of course, I could be discounting the effects of radical Islam. Do you still get to be called a martyr if your are arrested, tried, convicted, and executed by lethal injection? And if someone were to put some bacon grease on the needle prior to the execution, would he still go to Paradise?

Well, Reed isn't dead yet, so there's a simple enough way to verify the story. Whether he is telling the truth or lying, I think there is a reason other than confession being good for the soul, and we need to find out what is motivating him.
