For years, Omar Al-Bayoumi was dismissed as a harmless Saudi national with no ties to terrorism. But newly unearthed evidence paints a far darker picture — one that could reshape what we thought we knew about the events leading up to 9/11.
A former CIA analyst now claims that Al-Bayoumi wasn’t just a bystander, but a possible al-Qaeda facilitator, helping two of the hijackers — Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar — find housing and settle in the U.S. back in 2000. At the time, these connections were downplayed. Now, they’re under fresh scrutiny.
Authorities recently revisited a 2001 search of his apartment, uncovering documents and calculations that hint at possible aviation knowledge. Even more disturbing is a 1999 video he recorded in Washington, casually showing security checkpoints and key landmarks. Saudi officials say it was just a “tourist video,” but to some, it looks more like reconnaissance.
Additional materials, including sketches of descent angles and flight paths, raise serious questions. Bayoumi insists they came from old school notes — but not everyone is convinced.
Despite mounting concerns, Bayoumi was never charged and today lives quietly in Saudi Arabia. As the truth continues to unfold, one thing is clear: some pieces of the 9/11 puzzle are still falling into place — decades later.
