Aside from being guilty of bedhead and wearing a T-shirt 3 sizes too small, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has copped to the following:
- He confessed to 29 planned Al-Qaeda attacks, including 9/11. Says Mohammed: "I was responsible for the 9/11 operation from A to Z."
- He confessed to beheading Daniel Pearl...the Wall Street Journal reporter whose head was severed on TV and posted on the Internet.
- A number of other plots over the years including the 1993 World Trade Center attack, the attempted shoe bombing of a commercial jetliner by Richard Reid, the Bali nightclub bombing in 2002 and so on.
He also confessed to a number of plots that weren't carried out. They included assassinating Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, attacks on the Sears Tower, the Panama Canal and the Empire State Building. Attacks on oil tankers and nuclear plants were also on his list. Oh..and he also says he was tortured by the CIA. I know we're all very sorry that happened..
So there you have it...everything Al-Qaeda was going to do, laid out in the open. Think there's no Islamic terrorist threat? Think again. The good news is now that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has told us everything we want to know, we can take him out back and shoot him.
OK .. I'll admit it. This weird beard may have some delusions of grandeur ... and he may just be on a confession binge. So, how long before Ramsey Clark comes knocking to be his defense attorney?
