Just when you thought you were out, they pulled you back in! Robbyn Swans' latest article from the Florida Bulldog, has given us a breaking report surrounding Los Angeles Saudi officials and two 9/11 hijackers Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi. Part of this report also covers a tremendous bit if information not previously known or even reported by the national media. Omar al-Bayoumi, one of the Saudi officials who had direct contact with al-Mihdhar and al-Hazmi, was detained at his home in the United Kingdom, and investigators seized a notebook, as well as some documents, which seem to show airline coordinates, drawings of planes and even diagrams of speed and altitude calculations. Agents believe these coordinates were for American Airlines Flight 77 and the coordinates of landmarks which would allow for the operatives to know when to begin hijacking the plane.
