6/1/2002

On or around June 1, 2002, “…FBI chief Bob Mueller had held a press conference officially announcing that KSM [Khalid Sheikh Muhammed] was the mastermind behind 9/11–the main disclosure from the [al Qaeda operations chief Abu] Zubaydah interrogation. Pictures and profiles of the terrorist had saturated the media, elevating KSM to the status of international criminal, and folk hero in much of the Muslim world.”
