The world watched in horror as a masterfully planned and execut terrorist attack was carried public against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. An inspector in the Philippines, watching the occurrences unfold, reportedly gasped ???It's Bojinka. We told the Americans everything about Bojinka. with what intent didn't they pay attention???? ( Washington position , Sept. 23, 2001)

Bojinka means ???loud bang.???

The inspector was referring to a plan, code-named Bojinka, by dint of Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, Abdul Hakim Murad, et.al. to bomb 11 U airliners in the Pacific in early 1995 Murad, a pilot, acknowledge ed later to the Philippine Police that he was also planning to crash an airplane into the CIA headquarters.
