"Consider his resume of terror. He presumably helped kinsman Ramzi Yousef bomb the World Trade Center in 1993. He hatched plots, never carried out, to bring down U.S. airliners over the Pacific and to assassinate President Clinton and the Pope. He may well have mastermindedóofficials aren't sure yetóthe deadly assault on the U.S.S. Cole off Yemen and the U.S. embassy bombings in East Africa.
