Khalid Sheik Mohammad also confessed to a slew of other operations that he was planning like, assassinating President Carter and blowing up Library Tower in California, the Sears Tower in Chicago, several suspension bridges in New York, Heathrow Airport in London, the Canary Wharf Building, New York Stock Exchange, the Plaza Bank in Washington State (although he was captured in early 2003 and the Plaza wasn't completed until 2006), and last but not least, the Empire State Building in New York City.

He also planned to destroy American military vessels and oil tankers in the Straits of Hormuz, the Straits of Gibralter, the Port of Singapore, and the Panama Canal. On a side trip to the Philippines, he masterminded the assassination attempt against Pope John Paul II.

I forgot to mention that he admitted to personally decapitated “the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl, in the city of Karachi, Pakistan,” he testified, although his fat body doesn't in anyway resemble the fit militant in the video.

He also admitted to being responsible for, the nightclub bombings in Bali and during an overnight flight from South Korea, he personally identified targets “such as American military bases and a few night clubs frequented by American soldiers.” Perhaps it was on that flight that he planned the “Shoe Bomber Operation to down two American airplanes.”

Good thing he was tortured or else we may have never know that he was such an evil mastermind.

As muslims, they are liars. If 1 admits to being the killer, it is only to help the real killer to get off. Do not hold your breath that the Pakistanian courts will do the right thing. They sold their soles to the devil when they became muslims.
