Punto G-1: Controversia sobre Osama Bin Laden

<< Punto anterior, Siguiente punto >>

La Versión Oficial

Osama bin Laden fue responsable de los ataques del 11-S. [1]

La Evidencia Revisada

El FBI no incluyó el 11-S entre los actos terroristas por los cuales Osama Bin Laden era buscado. [2]

Cuando se interrogó acerca del porqué de esta omisión a Rex Tomb, (quien se hallaba a cargo de la publicidad investigativa para el FBI), [3] éste aseguró que el FBI no contaba con evidencia concreta que vinculara Bin Laden con el 11-S. [4]

Asimismo, aunque el Secretario de Estado Colin Powell, el Primer Ministro Británico Tony Blair y la Comisión del 11-S prometieron [5] evidencia que demostrara la responsabilidad de Bin Laden por los ataques, ésta nunca fue presentada. [6]
