Reply #36: Ya missed a couple of things besides his self-admitted lie about the dates, ace.

- The only record of said interview is an audio track with the voices distorted. Fouda tells a story for why this is so (the video was taken from him by the terrorists, who later sent him the audio track with distortion via the UK mail). One is entitled to take that with a grain of salt.

- Fouda claims he first tried to remove said distortion and was making progress, but then decided to go ahead and broadcast it in distorted form on Sept. 9th, 2002. Were they trying to make the 9/11 ratings sweeps? More importantly, has he or has Al Jazeera made further progress in the last four years toward fixing that pesky audio track? Do you know of a follow-up to that?

- They told him to assure the world they were the same guys as in the pictures of them.

- One of Fouda's ways of confirming himself is by citing an anonymous "jehad" web site that he can confirm knows what he knows, so it's All in the Circular Family, I guess.

- Al Jazeera is a propaganda channel that consciously feeds to a jihadi fan audience in the Arab world. They are the first public source of many of the dubious hijacker confession videos.

- The Binalshibh paraded to the world by the ISI with a mask on doesn't look like the Binalshibh in other photos (the visible lower part of his face, anyway).

Again, the evidence of "KSM's" confessions consists in the Fouda audio track and written transcripts released by the Guantanomo authorities.
