Moussaoui says he knew of WTC attack
Al Qaeda conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui testified at his sentencing trial Monday that he knew about the terrorist group’s plan to crash airplanes into the World Trade Center.”I had knowledge that the two towers would be hit, but I did not have the details,” Moussaoui told jurors after taking the stand in his own defense.
He said he was supposed to pilot a plane into the White House, with convicted shoe bomber Richard Reid as a member of his crew.
Moussaoui said he did not know in advance the precise date of Twin Towers attack, which unfolded the morning of September 11, 2001.
The only person tried in the United States in connection with the 9/11 attacks, Moussaoui testified against the advice of his court-appointed lawyers.
Sounds to me like he should have listened to his lawyers’ advice.
