This story -- "9/11 Report Says Plotter Saw Self as Superterrorist" -- in the Washington Post today has some interesting new details about the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, Khalid Sheik Mohammed. (the sleepy shirt head-hole guy we captured March 2003).
The original plan ...called for hijacking 10 jetliners on both coasts of the United States and crashing nine of them. The kicker would have been the final plane, which he would commandeer personally. After killing all the men on board, Mohammed would alert the media and deliver a speech excoriating the U.S. government for its support of Israel and repressive Arab regimes.
