Luego de muchos años de misterios, se conoció el pensamiento de uno de los ideólogos de los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001 en Estados Unidos. Se trata del paquistaní Khalid Sheikh Mohammed que dijo que los atentados fueron en "respuesta directa a la política exterior de Estados Unidos y las muertes inocentes que han causado".

Mohammed lanzó su acusación en una larga carta escrita entre 2014 y 2015 que tenía como destinatario al entonces presidente Barack Obama. El texto, de 18 páginas, llegó a la Casa Blanca dos años después por decisión de un juez pocos días antes del fin de su mandato, y fue finalmente divulgada este jueves.

This combination of file photos shows a handout photo (L) obtained on March 1, 2003 of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, alleged organiser of the September 11, 2001 attacks, shortly after his capture and an ABC World New Tonight handout photo of Abd al-Rashim al-Nashiri, al-Qaeda's chief of operations for the Gulf and a suspected mastermind of the USS Cole bombing in Yemen obtained November 23 2002. The US Senate released on December 9, 2014, the most thorough public report on interrogation techniques used by the CIA after September 11 on suspected members of Al-Qaeda that many say amounts to torture. In February 2008, Director of the CIA Michael Hayden acknowledged three detainees were subject to waterboarding: 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), influential Al-Qaeda member Abu Zubaydah(Not shown) and accused USS Cole bombing mastermind Abd Rahim Al-Nashiri. KSM was apparently subject to the waterboarding practice 183 times. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed terrorista de al qaeda terrorismo terroristas

"No fuimos nosotros quienes empezamos la guerra contra ustedes el 11 de septiembre. Fueron tú y tus dictadores en nuestra tierra", escribió Mohammed, quien se encuentra detenido en la cárcel de Guantánamo, Cuba, tras su captura en 2003 en Pakistán y su posterior extradición a los Estados Unidos.

Luego, se refirió a Obama como "la cabeza de la serpiente y líder del país de la opresión y la tiranía". "Allah nos ayudó en llevar a cabo el 11-S, destruyendo la economía capitalista, golpeándolos en su momento de debilidad y exponiendo toda la hipocresía de su histórica atribución de democracia y libertad", remarcó.

Iyman Faris, 34, is shown in this photo made available by the U.S. Justice Department. The Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on the CIA program that included torturing al-Qaida detainees provides eight “primary” examples in which the CIA said it obtained good intelligence as a result of what it called “enhanced interrogation techniques” and the Senate panel’s conclusions that the information was available elsewhere and without resorting to brutal interrogations. The CIA said the brutal interrogation of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed identified an Ohio truck driver, Iyman Faris, who later pleaded guilty to terrorism charges.

FILE - This file photo released by Pakistan's Interior Ministry shows senior al-Qaida leader Abu Faraj al-Libi on May 4, 2005, in Islamabad, Pakistan. To his CIA interrogators in a secret prison in Iraq Al-Libi, a Libyan who had become al-Qaida's operational commander after Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's capture, adamantly denied knowing one of al-Qaida's most important couriers, Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti. Suspecting a lie, and an important one, the CIA reasoned that if they could find al-Kuwaiti, they could find bin Laden. And years later al-Kuwaiti did unwittingly lead the agency to Osama bin Laden's doorstep in Pakistan.

Además de la carta, Mohammed presentó un texto de 51 páginas titulado "¿Moriré cuando los cruzados ejecuten la pena de muerte sobre mí? La verdad sobre la muerte", en el que dice estar preparado y dispuesto a morir y "reencontrarse con el Sheikh Osama Bin Laden", el máximo líder de Al Qaeda muerto en un operativo de Estados Unidos en 2011.
