Confessions of khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Oklahoma City, PanAm 800 and American 587

Here's a brief summery of the events from my 9th district appeal:

Defendant was charged with attempted murder (Pen.Code, §§ 664, 187;  except as noted, unspecified references are to the Penal Code);  assault with a deadly weapon, involving personal use of a firearm (§§ 245, subd. (a)(2), 1192.7, subd. (c)(, 12022.5), and unlawful possession of a firearm within 10 years of being convicted of a misdemeanor assault (§ 12021, subd. (c)).The victim testified defendant fired shots at him with a revolver.   The other witness testified she saw the victim running near her house while a man fired a rifle towards him.   Defendant denied firing any shots and claimed to have been in a shed on his own property, at the local Coast Guard Station or traveling by boat between those two locations.   He also claimed on the day of the alleged shooting the victim had threatened to kill him and had, contrary to the allegations, actually fired shots at him.The jury acquitted defendant of attempted murder but found him guilty of aggravated assault with a firearm and guilty of possession of a firearm by one previously convicted of a misdemeanor assault.   The court denied probation and sentenced defendant to prison for a total term of seven years, including a two-year concurrent term for the firearms possession conviction.   Defendant promptly appealed. - See more at: http://caselaw.findlaw.com/ca-court-of- ... 473gG.dpuf

My superior court trial involved four lawyers, three judges and two trials. The prosecution asked for the death penalty. The D.A. suborned perjury, manufactured evidence and violated the principal of double jeopardy. The term lasted for 3 1/2 years at hard labor!

The F.B.I informed the Court that I was very very dangerous!

"An FBI informant learned of a plan to bomb major New York landmarks, including the Holland and Lincoln tunnels. Disrupting this "landmarks plot".

"As a result of the investigations and arrests, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York prosecuted and convicted multiple individuals, including Ajaj, Salameh, Ayyad, Abouhalima, the Blind Sheikh, and Ramzi Yousef, for crimes related to the World Trade Center bombing and other plots".

"The New York City landmark bomb plot was a planned follow-up to the February 1993 World Trade Center bombing designed to inflict mass casualties on American soil by attacking well known landmark targets throughout New York City in the United States. If the attack had been successful, it is likely it would have resulted in the death of thousands. The plot was foiled in 1993 before it could be carried out".

"Clinton had been in office just 38 days when terrorists bombed the World Trade Center, killing six people and injuring more than 1,000. Although it was later learned that the bombing was the work of terrorists who hoped to topple one of the towers into the other and kill as many as 250,000 people, at first it was not clear that the explosion was the result of terrorism. The new president's reaction seemed almost disengaged. He warned Americans against "overreacting" and, in an interview on MTV, described the bombing as the work of someone who "did something really stupid."

"From the start, Clinton approached the investigation as a law-enforcement issue. In doing so, he effectively cut out some of the government's most important intelligence agencies. For example, the evidence gathered by FBI agents and prosecutors came under the protection of laws mandating grand-jury secrecy — which meant that the law-enforcement side of the investigation could not tell the intelligence side of the investigation what was going on. "Nobody outside the prosecutorial team and maybe the FBI had access," says James Woolsey, who was CIA director at the time. "It was all under grand-jury secrecy."

"What haunted me more than anything else was that [President Clinton] refused to make a decision.  Human lives were at stake – the lives of American service members and the lives of our allies who opposed Saddam at our behest and were now under attack.  At a time when America's honor and grander principles were being challenged and the world was watching our every move... the president was watching golf.
     ...I approached the president and said, "Sir, our aircraft are ready, bombs loaded, and waiting for your command...His reply destroyed my faith in him as commander-in-chief and convinced me that the greatest security risk to the United States was none other than...the president himself".
     — Lt. Col. Robert "Buzz" Patterson, USAF (Ret.), author of "Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Compromised America's National Security," recalling his three different attempts to pull Clinton away from watching the Presidents' Cup long enough to give the go-ahead to bomb Iraq on Sept. 13, 1996.  With lives hanging in the balance, Clinton, all three times, replied that he would deal with it later.

Anyone can see how the Ensign Synchro got falsely labeled as an HBO Pork Shop hoodlum by Cinnton's Ozark "Boss Hog" outfit!
