The hijackers in the September 11 attacks were 19 men affiliated with al-Qaeda. They were followed by three hijacker-pilots, Mohamed Atta , Marwan al-Shehhi , and Ziad Jarrah in mid to undertake flight training in south Florida. The rest of the "muscle hijackers" arrived in early- and mid Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi were both experienced and respected jihadists in the eyes of al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden. As for the pilots who would go on to participate in the attacks, three of them were original members of the Hamburg cell Mohamed Atta , Marwan al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah.
Following their training at Al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan , they were chosen by Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda's military wing due to their extensive knowledge of western culture and language skills, increasing the mission's operational security and its chances for success. The fourth intended pilot, Ramzi bin al-Shibh , a member of the Hamburg cell, was also chosen to participate in the attacks yet was unable to obtain a visa for entry into the United States.
He was later replaced by Hani Hanjour , a Saudi national. Mihdhar and Hazmi were also potential pilot hijackers, but did not do well in their initial pilot lessons in San Diego.
Both were kept on as "muscle" hijackers, who would help overpower the passengers and crew and allow the pilot hijackers to take control of the flights. In addition to Mihdhar and Hazmi, thirteen other muscle hijackers were selected in late or early Two flight attendants called the American Airlines reservation desk during the hijacking.
Betty Ong reported that "the five hijackers had come from first-class seats: Mohamed Atta's voice was heard over the air traffic control system, broadcasting messages thought to be intended for the passengers. Everything will be okay. If you try to make any moves, you'll endanger yourself and the airplane.
A United Airlines mechanic was called by a flight attendant who stated the crew had been murdered and the plane hijacked. She said her flight was being hijacked by six individuals who had moved them to the rear of the plane.
Unlike the other flights, there was no report of stabbings or bomb threats. One of the hijackers, most likely Hanjour, announced on the intercom that the flight had been hijacked. Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi. Passenger Jeremy Glick stated that the hijackers were Arabic-looking, wearing red headbands, and carrying knives. Spoken messages from Ziad Jarrah intended for passengers were broadcast over the air traffic control system, presumably by mistake:.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is the captain. Keep remaining sitting sic. We have a bomb on board. Uh, this is the captain. Would like you all to remain seated. There is a bomb on board and are going back to the airport and to have our demands met.
Jarrah is also heard on the cockpit voice recorder. Wright was part of the Bureau's Chicago counter-terrorism task force and involved in project Vulgar Betrayal, which was linked to Yasin al-Qadi. According to James Bamford, the NSA had picked up communications of al-Mihdhar and al-Hazmi back in , but had been hampered by internal bureaucratic conflicts between itself and the CIA and did not do a full analysis of the information it passed on to the agency. For example, it only passed on the first names, Nawaf and Khalid.
Miller asked his associate Mark Rossini for advice; Rossini pressed Wilshire's deputy but was rebuffed also. Bamford also claims that al-Mihdhar and Hazmi wound up living with Abdussattar Shaikh for a time to save money. Shaikh was, coincidentally, an FBI informant, but since they never acted suspiciously around him, he never reported them. None of this information made it back to the FBI headquarters. The suspects were identified within 72 hours because few made any attempt to disguise their names on flight and credit card records.
