Local news is saying US has "linked" attack to Bin Laden

[tgillitzr]

I don't know where they got the info cause I haven't heard it anywhere else, but KC 41 News is saying that the US intercepted calls from Bin Laden to his "supporters" talking about the attack.

I don't have a link, i'll see if I can find something.

If he did do it, a public trial and execution should be in order.

The sheer scale and sophistication of this operation (highjacking 4 planes etc) makes me think Bin Laden was not behind this. The biggest most sophisticated operations his operatives have been involved in have been simple carbombings and boat bombings. Certainly nothing of this magitude, not to mention he would have to have lots of operatives in place in the US. I suspect the Iranians or Iraqi's had something to do with this......

this operation wasnt as well thought out as people think. they used the box cutters cause razorblades can be stashed in a bag with out someone questioning you. the hijacking was the easy part. the only hard part was training the terrorists to fly and that would require some help. bin ladin could have done this operation. he had his eye on destroying those buildings

Just incase ya'll haven't figured it out yet, the US is already planning to kill that mofo, they just need an 'alllah-by' [inside joke] to pretend like they have a *real* reason.. They'll never have proof but everyone knows it was him...

Correct. The simple operations are most often successful ones.

It's also been widely reported that Bin Laden had access to Boeing flight simulators he'd illegally acquired.

his operatives planted and executed two simultaneous bombs in africa a few years ago that killed hundred of people and he also masterminded
the cole attack in yemen that killed nearly three dozen us military personnel. he's curried the support of an outlaw government that serves as his
guardian and provides him with logistical support and manpower to move about freely. how's that for scale and sophistication ?
