Revelations About Saudi Agent in 9/11 Case

In a recent civil court case in the United States, evidence revealed a connection between a Saudi Arabian student, Omar Albaumi, and the 9/11 terror attacks. Arrested in Birmingham shortly after the attacks, he was initially freed without charges. However, Albaumi was later identified as a Saudi intelligence agent by the FBI. Newly disclosed video footage from two years prior shows Albaumi filming near government buildings in Washington D.C., with comments that some have interpreted as incriminating. He noted the 'demons inside the capital' and hinted at a 'plan', suggesting he was surveilling the area before the attacks. Albaumi claims he was merely a tourist and contends he had no ulterior motives. He did admit to befriending two future hijackers while studying in the U.S. Advocacy groups have reacted strongly, asserting that this evidence strengthens their case for suing the Saudi government for damages, claiming that Albaumi was a state-supported student. The emergence of this evidence after so many years raises troubling questions about whether the Metropolitan Police shared it with the FBI at the time of the investigation. Key pieces of evidence include calculations related to aircraft altitude found in Albami's possession, which he attributes to his son’s homework. These findings have ignited further scrutiny of Saudi involvement in the attacks, as officials have long denied any support of the terrorists.
