Omar al-Bayoumi Khalid al-Mihdar

UK Government Confirms Omar al-Bayoumi worked for Saudi Government.

 

Video footage surfaces of Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, the first two hijackers to arrive in the U.S. in January 2000 at a house party thrown by Omar al-Bayoumi.

..”Omar al-Bayoumi, was arrested by British police less than two weeks after the attack that killed nearly 3,000 Americans in New York, the Pentagon and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. British police seized the videos and documents from Bayoumi.”

 

Retired FBI agent Danny Gonzalez, who worked on Operation Encore, told CBS News last fall that he believes Bayoumi was part of the hijackers' U.S-based support network.

 

"He helped them with apartments, he helped them with bank accounts," Gonzalez told CBS News.

 

Gonzalez and another former FBI agent, Ken Williams, are working on behalf of the families of some 9/11 victims in their litigation against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Williams wrote a memo before 9/11 that warned potential terrorists were taking flight lessons in Arizona.
