  Zakariya Essabar at AllExperts
Zakariya Essabar (Arabic: زكريا الصبار) is, according to the governments of the United States, Germany, and other countries, a member of al-Qaida and an associate of many of the organizers of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
After loaning Binalshibh $600 in December of 2000, Essabar is later reported to have delivered the cryptic message from Binalshibh to Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, indicating the date that the September 11, 2001 attack would be carried out.
Essabar may not have known the significance of the date, but he did relay the message, and he moved to Afghanistan just before the attacks (having been warned that travel would be more difficult after September 11).
