Manhunt is on for intended ‘20th hijacker’
BY PETE YOST AND
MELISSA EDDY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A Yemeni man
who tried but failed repeatedly to
get into the United States was sup
posed to be the 20th hijacker on
Sept. 11, the FBI said. The man is
now the focus of a worldwide man
hunt.
Ramzi Omar, also known as
Ramsi Binalshibh, is thought to
have intended to be part of the hi
jacking team that commandeered
United Airlines Flight 93, which
crashed in southwestern
Pennsylvania.
He was never able to enter the
country, despite three attempts by
Mohamed Atta, the suspected
ringleader of the 19 hijackers, to
get him into the country before
r~"'......
Sept. 11, FBI Director Robert
Mueller said Wednesday.
“We believe he was the 20th hi
jacker,” he said. The FBI director
said the teams that hijacked and
crashed four commercial airlin
ers had five members each except
the United flight that crashed in a
Pennsylvania field while on a
flight path to Washington.
Mueller’s assertion about
Binalshibh marks a change from
earlier suggestions by federal au
thorities that a man arrested in
Minnesota, Zacarias Moussaoui,
might have been the 20th hijacker.
Justice Department and FBI of
ficials wouldn’t comment about
Mueller’s remarks.
A month ago, Vice President
Dick Cheney said Moussaoui, who
was taken into custody the month
before the hijackings, might have
been intended as part of the terrorist
crew that commandeered Flight 93.
Mueller said there was no in
formation on the computer seized
from Moussaoui that links him to
the Sept. 11 attacks. That prompted
officials to consider other suspects
as the 20th hijacker, officials said.
At a security conference in
Germany on Wednesday, FBI offi
cial Michael Rolince said: “As an
investigator, I’m convinced there
were supposed to be five people on
this plane.... Whoever that fifth
person was is probably still alive.
“Clearly, we are looking into
the pool of people who crossed
paths with the hijackers” to find
the 20th hijacke4 said Rolince,
FBI section leader for interna
tional terrorism.
U.S. officials, speaking on con
dition of anonymity, said infor
mation recently obtained from
Osama bin Laden operatives now
in custody has helped provide a
clearer picture of the hijacking
plot and plans for follow-up at
tacks.
German authorities have is
sued international arrest war
rants for three suspected accom
plices of the hijackers: Binalshibh;
Said Bahaji, a German national;
and Zakariya Essabar of Morocco.
All three left Hamburg shortly be
fore the Sept. 11 attacks.
Attorney General John Ashcroft
has said the three had extensive
connections to Atta and Marwan
Al-Shehhi, the suspected pilots of
the hijacked planes that crashed
into the World Trade Center in
New York City, and Ziad Jarrah,
suspected of flying the plane that
crashed in Pennsylvania.
Advisement
DARS could be in
place in two years
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
and has served to identify sev
eral bugs that need to be worked
out in the system.
“I think it would free up some
of the advisement time for more
high quality discussions be
tween the student and the facul
ty member,” Miller said. “It
would provide more instanta
neous accurate information so
that when you sit down with
your adviser you don’t sit 20
minutes looking through a cat
alogue, you are able to spend 20
minutes talking about what it is
that you want to do.”
DARS is expected to be com
bined with Visual Information
Processing (VIP) in two or three
years.
The forums are the first in a
series of events aimed at getting
better publicity for student gov
ernment and to show that
“Student Government actually
can do something.”
“I think some of the things we
do are not seen by the student
body or they are internal correc
tions,” Stauffer said. “If students
complain, they need to have a
voice for their complaints. We are
the loudspeaker for that voice.”
Student Government also
plans to pressure the state leg
islature next semester with
everything from “a muffin with
a little card in it to a full fledged
lobbyist packet” to encourage
legislators to not cut the uni
versity’s budget or raise the
higher educations price index.
“I think it is time for us to
take a more active role in stu
dent life, listen to concerns and
try to voice them,” Stauffer said.
“You can go along walking
around campus, walking down
Greene Street and grumble all
you want, but we are finally giv
ing you a place to say something
that will make change happen.
[Students] should be there for
that.”
