	Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Encyclopedia Article @ Confines.net (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Mohammed is thought to have been born in the Baluchistan region of Pakistan, and spent some of his formative years in Kuwait.
		Mohammed conspired with Ramzi Yousef on the plot until it was uncovered on January 6, 1995.
		Mohammed is also a suspect in the April 2002 bombing on the historic El-Ghriba synagogue on the island of Djerba, Tunisia, which killed 14 Germans, five Tunisians and two French citizens.

	Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
		According to KSM, the 1998 bombings of the U.S. embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam marked a watershed in the evolution of the 9/11 plot.
		KSM himself was to land the tenth plane at a U.S. airport and, after killing all adult male passengers on board and alerting the media, deliver a speech excoriating U.S. support for Israel, the Philippines, and repressive governments in the Arab world.
		KSM told them to watch the cabin doors at takeoff and landing, to observe whether the captain went to the lavatory during the flight, and to note whether the flight attendants brought food into the cockpit.

	The Capture of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
		For while Khalid Sheikh Muhammad's capture is but the latest in a long series of arrests of terror activists, including senior operatives from al-Qaeda and other organizations supported by it, over the last eighteen months, it is nevertheless much more significant than any that went before it, in terms of both symbolic and operational implications.
		Khalid Sheikh Muhammad's arrest was the result of close cooperation between American and Pakistani security agencies, and that clearly points to international intelligence and operational cooperation as the only way of dealing effectively with the international terrorist threat.
		Khalid Sheikh Muhammad's interrogation and the investigation of the materials found in his possession are likely to tighten the ring around other commanders in the organization and may even turn up information about the location of bin Laden and his deputy, Ayman al-Zawahiri thought they can certainly be expected to change their hiding place.

	[No title]
		Khalid Shaikh Mohammed (also known as Ashraf Refaat Nabith Henin, Khalid Adbul Wadood, Salem Ali, Abdul Majid, Abdullah al-Fak'asi al-Ghamdior, Fahd Bin Adballah Bin Khalid, and 27 other aliases) is the military head of Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network.
		Mohammed, who seemed to have found his calling as a terrorist, was now simultaneously plotting multiple acts of murder, including the assasination of Pope John Paul II and a failed plot to assassinate President Clinton during his 1994 trip to Manilla.
		Mohammed initially resisted joining because he needed to be sure that bin Laden was really committed to terrorist attacks against the United States.

	The CEO of al-Qaeda: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
		Khaled Sheikh Mohammed was the fourth son of Sheikh Mohammed Ali, a respectable man who in the early 1950s brought his family from the barren Pakistani province of Baluchistan to the thriving oil emirate of Kuwait.
		Sheikh Mohammed Ali became a prominent preacher at the al-Ahmadi mosque in a suburb of the Kuwaiti capital.
		For five years, Khaled Sheikh Mohammed devoted himself to this cause and exulted in the victory that came with the withdrawal of the Soviet troops in 1989, and the eventual collapse of the superpower.

	OpinionJournal - Extra
		Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, is a Pakistani Baluch.
		Mohammed, Yousef and Murad, supposedly born and raised in Kuwait, are part of a tight circle.
		Mohammed should now be just under 38, but the terrorist's arrest photo, showing graying sideburns and heavy jowls, seems to suggest an older man (admittedly, a subjective judgment).

	Jim Hoagland, Who is Khalid Sheik Mohammed?
		The U.S. media and government officials describe Mohammed and Yousef as "masters of disguise," and then assume they are who they say they are this time.
		How they acquired prodigious masterminding skills and, at least in Mohammed's case, rabid Islamic fanaticism after lives of intellectual mediocrity and pleasure-seeking, also is a mystery.
		Mohammed migrated from the identity of small-time freelance terrorist to the top ranks of bin Laden's ultra-secretive band not long after the 1993 bombing resulted in the breakup of Yousef's U.S. network.

	IS KHALID SHAIKH MOHAMMED (Khalid Sheikh Mohammed) AN IRAQI AGENT?
		The operational planner of Project Bojinka was Khalid Mohammed, who was accordingly indicted in 1996 in the Southern District of New York.
		Khalid Mohammed is, in fact, the uncle of Abdul Basit.
		Thus, the family of Khalid Mohammed and Abdul Basit, as well as Abdul Murad who grew up with Basit and was the son of a Kuwait pilot, were likely among the 600+ Kuwaitis that disappeared when Iraq took over the emirate in 1990.

	9/11 Report Says Plotter Saw Self as Superterrorist (washingtonpost.com)
		According to the new report from the Sept. 11 commission, the idea is classic KSM -- as Mohammed is referred to in U.S. intelligence reports -- mixing grim nihilism with a flair for the dramatic and always putting Mohammed at the center of things.
		Mohammed, the architect of the Sept. 11 attacks, has been in U.S. custody at an undisclosed location since March 2003, when he was captured in a safe house in Pakistan.
		The report portrays Mohammed, now 39, as a flamboyant and zealous operative who was continually hatching grandiose plans for terrorist attacks, even as bin Laden and other senior al Qaeda leaders urged him to stay focused on the Sept. 11 plot.

		Mohammed told interrogators: “I was impressed by JI’s ability to operate regionally and by Hambali’s connections with the Malaysian government.

	Mystery surrounding Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
		Khalid Sheikh Mohammad is being projected by US officials and the army of so-called non-governmental counter-terrorism experts, who have sprung up since 9/11, as if he is the Field Marshal Montgomery or General Patton or General Rommel of Al Qaeda, but his case is shrouded in mystery.
		An ISI official brought to the notice of his seniors that after the encounter in Karachi on September 11, 2002, in which Ramzi Binalshibh was captured, the officer in charge of the raid had submitted a report to the headquarters claiming to have killed Mohammad and buried his body without informing the Americans about it.
		Sheikh Omar's defence counsel has drawn the attention of the appeals court to reports in the foreign media that it was Mohammad who masterminded Pearl's kidnapping and murder and pointed out that handing him over to the US without trying him in Pakistan vitiated the case against his client.
