1/5/2000

In Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on January 5, 2000, “a camera captured [future 9/11 hijacker Khalid] al-Midhar meeting with Tawfiq bin Atash, the one-legged chief of security for Osama bin Laden. About a dozen men attended the secret multiday conference. Malaysian intelligence officers delivered copies of the pictures to the CIA within weeks, but inexplicably, the CIA seemed to have already lost interest in this mysterious gathering of al Qaeda associates.”
