Thanks for the post and ping ...

In the end they probably face life imprisonment and even execution. Binalshibh, at least, appears to have no regrets. If he is released or escapes, he has told his interrogators, his first act will be to "kill 1000 Americans".

Say goodnight, Dick ! ...

Does this indicate that before the events a "tuesday" was chosen on purpose, or is the title an afterthought?

It was chosen on purpose, but not for any religious reason. Tuesday is the least-busy day of the week in commercial air travel. Fewer people on board = less chance of any "Let's Roll"-style passenger uprisings.

So the plot was hatched and the great bulk of the planning was done while Clinton was president.

What does this do to the current democratic argument that the terrorists are terrorists because Bush is so mean to terrorists?

I looked for the article on the Der Spiegel site, and found this: Operation Heiliger Dienstag [Operation Holy Thursday]. Since it would cost money to look at the articles in the dossier, I'm going to try to find a hard copy of the issue of the magazine instead.

So hard to tell with these guys. The amount of mysticism prevalent is so pervasive - Remember the Osama tape released the same day as the Attack on the Indian Parliament, December 2001?

In it, the Saudi mullah and Osama spoke about the dreams of the muj, talking about players in pilot uniforms playing on soccer fields, and dreams and visions of planes, burning buildings etc. Osama said he counselled the brothers not to speak about their dreams and visions with others, in order to preserve the secrecy.

Holy Tuesday prolly became so after the Consecration ceremony performed in NY. IMO, unimportant whether they consider it holy before or after - It certainly is now and is written about in glowing terms in some of their missives.

Only the earthy, empirical, quantifiable demonstration of America's resolve could possibly negate the megalomaniacal mysticisim of the mullahs, military and rulers by demonstrating the power of rationality over irrationality.
