Convicted Qaeda Agent Seeks Retrial in ’95 Case
By BENJAMIN WEISER
More than 15 years after El-Sayyid A. Nosair was convicted of
seditious conspiracy and of murdering Rabbi Meir Kahane, a dispute has
erupted over a claim by Mr. Nosair that prosecutors improperly blocked
his trial lawyers from gaining access to a witness who he says would
have supported his claim of innocence, court papers show.
A federal magistrate judge recently ordered a hearing on Mr. Nosair’s
claim of prosecutorial misconduct, leading to a sharp response from
prosecutors, who say Mr. Nosair’s contention is “absurd” and deny
suppressing the witness.
The government also argues that, given what is now known about the
witness, a former United States Army sergeant who became a Qaeda
operative and a close aide to Osama bin Laden, the only way he could
have provided exculpatory testimony for Mr. Nosair would have been to
lie on the stand.
“A defendant has no right to present perjured testimony,” a federal
prosecutor, Michael D. Lockard, wrote last month to Judge Richard J.
Holwell of the United States District Court in Manhattan, “and Nosair
can hardly invoke the court’s aid to vacate his conviction based on
such a claim.”
Mr. Lockard asked Judge Holwell to overturn the order for a hearing,
which prosecutors described as “clearly erroneous and contrary to
law.” Prosecutors have also asked that the judge dismiss Mr. Nosair’s
petition, which seeks a new trial.
Mr. Nosair, now in his 50s, was convicted of conspiracy to wage a war
of urban terrorism and other charges in a nine-month trial with nine
other defendants, including a blind sheik, Omar Abdel Rahman. In the
years since, many of the key participants in the trial have gone on to
national prominence: the judge, Michael B. Mukasey, served as attorney
general under President George W. Bush, and the prosecutors included
Patrick J. Fitzgerald, now the United States attorney in Chicago;
Robert S. Khuzami, now director of enforcement for the Securities and
Exchange Commission in Washington; and Andrew C. McCarthy, an author
and commentator for National Review.
Mr. Nosair sent in his 2009 handwritten motions from the so-called
Supermax prison in Florence, Colo., where he was then being held. He
has since been moved to a prison in Terre Haute, Ind. The documents,
which are signed by Mr. Nosair and written in the third person,
include sections with about 50 lines of writing squeezed onto a page.
“Petitioner’s conviction should be overturned and he be set free,” he
writes at one point.
The hearing has been postponed pending Judge Holwell’s review, but the
dispute is a reminder of how intertwined the threads of Islamic
terrorism have been in New York since the killing of Rabbi Kahane, the
founder of the Jewish Defense League, and even before that.
The witness Mr. Nosair’s lawyers wanted access to was Ali A. Mohamed,
a naturalized American citizen from Egypt and one of the more
intriguing figures to surface in the government’s investigations. Mr.
Mohamed served in the Army in the late 1980s at Fort Bragg, N.C., and
was honorably discharged in 1989. But he was a double agent, working
also as a member of Egyptian Islamic Jihad, a terrorist group that
later merged with Al Qaeda.
In 1989, while on active duty, Mr. Mohamed traveled to the New York
area and provided military training to local Islamic militants. The
United States government has said the militants included people who
were later convicted of plotting terrorist attacks, including the 1993
World Trade Center bombing. But a witness for Mr. Nosair testified
that the men who received training, including Mr. Nosair, were
preparing to fight the Soviet forces in Afghanistan.
Indeed, Mr. Nosair’s lawyers argued that their client was not involved
in a conspiracy against the United States, but rather was part of a
United States-supported covert operation to train and arm the
mujahideen to fight in Afghanistan. He “was on the same side” as the
United States, one lawyer, Roger L. Stavis, told the jury.
Mr. Stavis and his co-counsel, Andrew G. Patel, who no longer
represent Mr. Nosair, have said in recent court filings that they
sought Mr. Mohamed’s testimony to bolster their argument.
“We believed that if we could have located Mohamed,” Mr. Patel wrote,
“we likely could have presented him as a witness that Mr. Nosair was
also acting in accordance with the United States government’s position
in helping to train fighters for the war in Afghanistan, not to wage
an urban war against the United States.”
A new lawyer who has been appointed to represent Mr. Nosair, Marjorie
M. Smith, declined to comment, as did the two former lawyers and a
spokeswoman for the federal prosecutor’s office.
Mr. Mohamed was arrested in 1998 and described his terrorist past when
he pleaded guilty in 2000. Prosecutors say that by the time of Mr.
Nosair’s 1995 trial, Mr. Mohamed was already an active Qaeda member
who had trained Bin Laden’s bodyguards and was reporting to senior
Qaeda officials.
Far from keeping his whereabouts secret from the defense, the
government has said in court papers that officials extracted an
agreement from Mr. Mohamed, who met with the authorities in 1994, to
be available for the trial, but that Mr. Nosair’s lawyers did not ask
for help in securing his presence. “Mohamed simply was not
suppressed,” prosecutors wrote.

Regolamento di conti tra fascisti ("thugs and hooligans" la tua amata
ADL chiama i membri dell'organizzazione fondata da Kahane, e l'FBI
terroristi). Ma non c'era bisogno di confermare per l'ennesima volta
che sei fascio fino alla punta dei capelli che non hai più. LO dissi

finire kahanista.

a proposito di uno dei quali, guardacaso arabo, hai poco da dire.

in questo ng per anni una accolita di coglioni, che comprendeva sergio
e quel tale che si firma Luca Logi, ha tirato fuori il nome di quel
boia fascista di Kahane ad ogni pisciata di cane, senza nemmeno una
volta parlare del tale che lo ha ammazzato. Ambedue fascisti, e' vero.
Ma che almeno si mostri un poco di equanimita', invece di accanirsi
solo contro quello dei due che era ebreo. Tu, Bombacci, sei un niubbo,
