A new study by Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government reveals that al Qaeda agents went to McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario during their search for nuclear and biological weapons. According to the study’s author, known operatives Adnan el-Shukrijumah, Abderraouf Ben-Habib Jdey and Zacharias Moussaoui were at the University in 2001. Mr. Shukrijumah and Mr. Jdey are still at large. Moussaoui is serving a life sentence without parole at the Federal Supermax Prison in Florence, Colorado for plotting “to murder thousands of innocent people in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.”
The study provides a glimpse into al Qaeda’s search for the world’s most destructive weapons. As the author notes, “Organizing a coherent strategy to prevent this nightmare from occurring begins with a clear recognition that WMD terrorism is a real and imminent threat.” McMaster University has filed a $2 million defamation suit against the study’s author.
