Lest anyone forget:
It is a fact that Al-Qaeda's very first terrorist action inside the United States was the murder of Rabbi Meir Kahane.
Kahane's assassin was an Egyptian-born American citizen named El Sayyid Nosair. Nosair was acquitted in 1991 of the murder.
Fast-forward to the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. He stood trial for the bombing with Omar Abdel-Rahman, otherwise known as the Blind Sheikh. Rahman's background was in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood and its latest manifestation, Egypt's Islamic Jihad.
Together with Ramzi Yousef, who is the nephew of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (Al-Qaeda's number 2 man), these men conspired and intended to bring down both towers.
Nosair, in addition to being found guilty for his role in the WTC bombing, was convicted of murdering Rabbi Kahane. Kahane's murder was found to be part of a 'seditious [terrorist] conspiracy' and not an isolated action.
On September 11th, 1994, Chaim Ben Pesach was on television in Manhattan, explicitly predicting that the terrorists who bombed the WTC in 1993 would return to finish their work. He made the case that this was not a closed case; Al-Qaeda was not finished.
He was dismissed as a kook, as a right-wing nutjob. Chaim was later taken off the air in Manhattan.
The rest is history. Exactly 7 years later, America was attacked by the same terrorists.
Not one word of this has been exaggerated. Every word is true and the truth is a powerful tool.
