A captured al-Qaeda operative has told Canadian intelligence investigators that a Montreal man who trained in Afghanistan alongside the 9/11
hijackers was responsible for the crash of an American Airlines flight in New York three years ago.
Canadian Security Intelligence Service agents were told during five days of interviews with the source that Abderraouf Jdey, a Canadian citizen also
known as Farouk the Tunisian, had downed the plane with explosives on Nov. 12, 2001.

While it is highly unlikely that this was an Al-Qaida attack, it is curious that the offical explanation of the crash is some what difficult to

I do not remember if the FAA ever searched the debris for traces of explosives, or if they just locked on to the tail failure and let it go as
that.
