Anyone really think the Hijackers came from Saudi Arabia yet or did they come from Iraq .?

Answer 1

I believe they were Citizens of Saudi Arabia. Where they were prior to coming to the US, I am not sure.........

Answer 2

19 of the 21 were born in Saudi Arabia and, I believe, without exception, all were wanted by Saudi authorities and so were not in Saudi Arabia. So, I think, technically, it can be said that they didn't come from Saudi Arabia, but from where ever they were living in hiding from the authorities.

As to Iraq, you really need to get past this myopic view of terrorism. While al Quada was behind the attacks of 9/11, they are not the only game in town. There's Hamas, Fetah, Black September, Islamic Jihad and a half a dozen more, all of whom are enemies not just of the United States, but the entire world. I would refer you to recent events in Russia, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, Great Britain, and half a dozen other countries in the world where these psychopathic whack jobs have been killing and maiming innocent civilians behind a facade of Islamic fervor. You now what 'facade' means, right? It means a 'fake front'.

And had Saddam been developing WMD's, as every single intelligence service of every single nation in the U.N. security council...including France, Russia and Germany...believed, not to mention darned near every leading democrat you could name, does it sound like a good idea to go in and make sure he's not or are you just going to sit back and hope that the psychopath that was Saddam would play nice? Seems you're the kind who'd bet the house against a dealer holding two tens.

Answer 3

It is quite obvious that most of the alleged hijackers were Saudis, and I believe the remaining were Pakistanis or Afghan.

There is no connection between Iraq and 911. Please stop making that judgement.

The best experts in the world studying suicide bombings found that the number one reason that people became suicide bombers was due to a foreign force occupying their country. The country with the most suicide bombers in the world is Sri Lanka, because they were occupied by India.

Now we are building a military base in Iraq and we are going to simply cause the recruiting of terrorists to increase dramatically.

Please people do not believe the media pundits lies about Iraq and Iran. I have many friends from Iran and other middle eastern countries. The extremists consist of a very small percentage of the population probably less than 1% of those countries. Iran does not want war with us. That is a flat out lie.
We need to stop involving ourselves in foreign affairs that really don't concern us at all and spread our defense thin.

I believe this country will have another attack before the end of this year that will be blamed on Al Queda and sure enough we will retaliate on Iran.

Answer 4

They came from Saudi Arabia. But the idiot Bush got confused and attacked Iraq thinking he was attacking Saudi Arabia.

Answer 5

All were from Saudi Arabia except one Egyptian. Where do people come up with this stuff?

Answer 6

I'm sure they came from Saudi Arabia, it's a breeding ground for terrorism. Don't listen to all the conspiracy kooks on here, just look for the facts.

Answer 7

They came mostly from Saudi Arabia...but are most of the Al Qaeda prisoners in GITMO Saudi? Nope...so your attempt at supporting a premise, disguised as a question, is specious.

Answer 8

I understand it that they came from all parts of the middle-east and Europe. They were all born purhaps in Saudi Arabia same as Bin Laden.

Answer 9

It is my understanding they came from Saudi Arabia.

Answer 10

What's the difference. There are terrorists in Iraq and Saudi Arabia, and currently we're killing the ones in Iraq.
