ID'ing the Hijackers

One of the first obvious curiosities of 9/11 was the fact that the FBI was able to identify all the hijackers so quickly AND have nice pictures of all of them.

The question of course is how exactly did they know which of the passengers were hijackers and how did they get those nice pictures of them?

This is a question I would love to see the FBI answer, and sometimes I dream of calling someone at the FBI and demanding some answers. But then I get intimidated and worry that they will investigate me and find something to harrass me over.

In any case, I think in the context of my current 9/11 working model, it is fairly clear how the FBI knew who the hijackers were and where they got pictures of them. The hijackers were recruited by either the CIA or military intelligence to pose as hijackers in the highjacking drill they ran on 9/11, Operation Vigilant Guardian and Vigilant Warrior. Thus, the military and the CIA knew exactly who the hijackers were on the planes, because they put them there. And they probably had pictures of the hijackers from when they were trained. Of course this scenario fits perfectly with reports that some of the hijackers received training at US military bases.

As far as the fact that some of the 9/11 "hijackers" have turned up alive, this is simply explained by the fact that many of the men the US recruited to pose as hijackers were using fake ID's. Whether the US or another organization gave the men fake ID's is not clear.

The fact that many of the hijackers were Saudis or used Saudi names is most likely a function of the fact that Saudis received preferential treatment in the US, as documented by Dan Hopsicker.
