In the aftermath of the September 11th 2001 terrorist attacks, intelligence started coming in from every station of the intelligence community on the hour. But as Osama Bin Laden was being mentioned as the perpetrator of the attacks, one name in particular was left unmentioned and unrecognized. It wasn't until the capture of an alleged Al Qaeda recruiter, Abu Zubaydah, that FBi agent Ali Soufan showed him a photograph of a bearded man, Zubaydah murmurs...."Mukhtar". It was here thru Soufan's conversation with Zubaydah that "Mukhtar" was Khalid Sheikh Muhammad (KSM), uncle of Ramzi Yousef, who was the main suspect of the 1993 WTC bombing and co-mastermind of the Bojinka Plot. The rush was on to find the mastermind of the 9/11 attacks. After KSM's capture in Pakistan on March 1, 2003, the CIA immediately took control of interrogating him, and subjected him to the "enhanced interrogation techniques" which included waterboarding him 183 times in single month. Rendering him mentally unstable. The problem? His confessions cannot be used as evidence for the crimes of September 11th in the military tribunal for which he awaits trial for his alleged participation.
