Moussaoui “regularly wrote legal motions referring to himself as ‘Slave of Allah,’ a name he continues to use.” And “as recently as 2018, he continued to refer to himself as a ‘natural born terrorist’ in court papers.”
Nonetheless, Katherine Donahue, who wrote a book about him, said: “He’s been there 14 years. It’s a long time to think about what you’ve done. I don’t see him lying. … There were so many ways he could have helped himself before by lying” but he didn’t.
According to a hadith, Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” (Bukhari 4.52.268). And some Infidels are so eager to be deceived. The fact that he calls himself a “slave of Allah” is indication enough of his deceit, as he wouldn’t have gotten involved in jihad terrorism in the first place if he didn’t believe that Allah commanded it. Now he says that he was misunderstanding Islam, which is just what Western authorities want to hear. Has he explained the nature of his misunderstanding and showed from the Qur’an and Sunnah how the jihad terrorists are wrong? Of course not. And no authority will ask him to do so, either.
“The only man ever convicted in 9/11 attack now says he renounces terrorism, bin Laden,” by Matthew Barakat, Associated Press, May 20, 2020 (thanks to Ken):
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — The only man ever convicted in a U.S. court for a role in the Sept. 11 attacks now says he is renouncing terrorism, al-Qaida and the Islamic State.
Zacarias Moussaoui is serving a life sentence at a federal prison in Colorado after narrowly escaping the death penalty at his 2006 trial.
He was sometimes referred to as the missing 20th hijacker, and while he was clearly a member of al-Qaida there is scant evidence to suggest he was slated to hijack a plane on Sept. 11, 2001. Instead, prosecutors pinned responsibility on Moussaoui because they said he could have prevented the attacks if he had not lied to the FBI about his knowledge of al-Qaida and its efforts to attack the U.S. when he was arrested in August 2001.
In a handwritten court motion Moussaoui filed with the federal court in Alexandria last month, Moussaoui wrote, “I denounce, repudiate Usama bin Laden as a useful idiot of the CIA/Saudi. I also proclaim unequivocally my opposition to any terrorist action, attack, propaganda against the U.S.”
He also said he wants “to warn young Muslim against the deception and the manipulation of these fake Jihadis.”
His remarks are a far cry from his 2006 trial, when he taunted victims and flashed a victory sign after a jury opted to send him to prison for life rather than execute him. At his final sentencing hearing, he told the judge “God save Osama bin Laden you will never get him.”…
Moussaoui made his renunciation in a petition seeking relaxation of the special administrative measures under which he serves his sentence. In particular, he says he wants either Rudy Giuliani or Alan Dershowitz to represent him as a lawyer, so he can testify in a civil trial filed by victims of the Sept. 11 attacks. Prison documents filed with his motion indicate he received a response of some kind to a letter he wrote to the American Civil Liberties Union but was not allowed to see it because it was marked as privileged legal communication, and he is only allowed to receive the mail if the prison can can open and read it.
Moussaoui has a long history of writing letters to the court — indeed he served as his own lawyer for several years leading up to his trial and regularly wrote legal motions referring to himself as “Slave of Allah,” a name he continues to use.
He has written numerous letters seeking to testify at the 9/11 civil trial, and at the military trials of al-Qaida members including Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. But those requests have not included the explicit renunciation of terrorism that he includes in his most recent letter. As recently as 2018, he continued to refer to himself as a “natural born terrorist” in court papers. In another handwritten motion that year, he concluded his motion with “God Curse Ugly Satan of Abomination” in huge letters.
Katherine Donahue, an anthropology professor at Plymouth State University in New Hampshire, who wrote a book about Moussaoui called “Slave of Allah” after attending his 2006 trial, said she was unaware of any other instance in which Moussaoui had renounced terrorism or bin Laden. She said she expects he is being truthful, even though he admitted at his trial that he lied to the FBI after his arrest.
“He’s been there 14 years. It’s a long time to think about what you’ve done,” she said. “I don’t see him lying. … There were so many ways he could have helped himself before by lying” but he didn’t….
Steve says
OMG. That has to be a world champion Zabibah.
Ma says
Mr. Musawi (why the French spelling “Moussaoui”?) says he has renounced terrorism, but has he given up forehead abuse? Once a forehead is not longer banged against a prayer mat, how long does it take for the zebibah to disappear? (Hey, is there a market for zebibah tattoos?)
Steve says
I’d be curious to see his forehead, as it looks today. A zabibah is a sure sign of a devout fanatic.
FYI says
He should renounce the Zebibah too..
Like Lady Macbeth:”out damned spot”
“Out damned spot!Out I say!One,two.Why,then ’tis time to do’it.Hell is murky…”

Yep–I noticed that as well. That’s one heck of a forehead “raisin”–more like a forehead prune…
mortimer says
Moussaoui STILL calls himself ‘Slave of Allah’ ??? Then he is not yet ‘out of the woods’. Supremacism and terrorism are on almost every page of the Koran. Why would he renounce the 164 jihad verses in the Koran … Allah’s literal words? He would not renounce them.
Until a Muslim sees that the Koran is of human origin, he is a ticking time bomb.
It is easy to prove that the Koran is of human origin.
Rarely says
He’ll be “out of the woods” after the third shovelful.
pfwag says
Taqiya… let’s see if he repudiates Mohammad and the Koran.
Old Fat Bald Socially Inept Ron says
This SOA is SOL ?
Rarely says
Good for him. “I’M CURED!!!” Now everything about 9/11 is OK. He should be let out, given landed immigrant status, a large settlement for being imprisoned for so long and sent out on the lecture circuit to help educate elementary school kids.
Or not. This evil, sick lowlife is just a pitiful sick joke. He has absolutely nothing to say worth listening to.
Michael Copeland says
“Act like you are his friend. Then kill him.”
So urged Sheikh Mubarak Gilani. Usman “I aint no terrorist” Khan acted as if he was friend to Jack Merritt of “Learning Together” and then he stabbed him to death at Fishmongers” Hall.
Islam has begotten a long track record of deception.
elee says
I hope they’re quarantining him in the deepest hole in the hardest super-max there is.
DHazard says
It’s always tragic when a religion and it’s manipulative exponents take a talented, intelligent man and ruin him.
But it seems we will always live with people who, knowing they are infected, will eagerly go out of their way to fulfill the wishes of patient zero and spread the virus to as many others as possible. The problem with this disease is that you never are 100% certain that a patient is cured or still infected but asymptomatic.
Kant Explain says
HERD IMMUNITY FOR DUMMIES
There are 6 populations to consider :
A : those with innate immunity because of blood type, gender etc
B : those who have acquired immunity – they were exposed to the virus and produced antibodies
C : those who are infectious (which lasts about 10 days)
D : those who are seriously ill with the virus
E : those who are susceptible but not at risk
F : those who are susceptible and are at risk
population C either go to B (about 95%) or to D (5%)
population D either go to population B or die (6% reducing to 2% if treated with hydroxychloroquine)
The continuation of the virus depends on C infecting E or F
If it cannot find a victim in the E or F groups it will die. Population C goes to zero; even if new members come from outside, the virus cannot re-establish itself.
This depends on population B reaching a percentage of the total population, which may be as low as 40%. “Second waves” are due to this target not being reached.
So public policy should be :
1) isolate populations D and F
2) do not try to prevent population C infecting population E as that will prevent population B from reaching its critical mass.
So no lockdown or social distancing; lockdown also means the virus has an equal chance of infecting populations E and F.
This is how all epidemics are ended, apart from the small number of cases where early containment is possible.
At the moment we cannot easily detect how far we are into this as the only population whose number is well known is population D.

Zacarias Moussaoui should have been executed years ago.
Even ADX Florence is too good for him…

Well, that ”Slave of Allah” routine doesn’t seem to be working. Guess I’ll send ”my opposition to any terrorist action” up the flagpole and see who salutes it.

It is likely that Zacarias Moussaoui has developed chronic traumatic encephalopathy from all of that headbanging…
