Background on Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh
Back in 2002 and 2003, largely due to their relevance to the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui and their captivity in overseas secret prisons where they likely were tortured, I wrote many, many posts about Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh.
All of the posts are accessible here:
- Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (60 posts)
- Ramzi Binalshibh (53 posts)
In addition to the alleged torture of Khalid, the CIA also kidnapped his young sons and flew them to America to talk. My criticism of that is here. The U.S. gave a denial, but it didn't fit. The Associated Press reported on Khalid's statements to interrogators back in 2003. Here is the summary of Khalid's debriefing introduced at the Moussaoui trial. (Analysis here.)Time Magazine profiled Khalid in 2003. ABC reported on the torture techniques as described by CIA officers. The New York Times reported on the techniques used on Khalid (described here.) In 2004, the Washington Post reported on the conflicts between what Khalid and Binalshibh were telling them.
