GUANTANAMO BAY U.S. NAVAL BASE, Cuba, July 22 (Reuters) - Osama bin Laden's driver knew the target of the fourth hijacked jetliner in the Sept. 11 attacks, a prosecutor said on Tuesday in an attempt to draw a link between Salim Hamdan and the al Qaeda leadership in the first Guantanamo war crimes trial.

Hamdan's lawyer said in opening statements that the Yemeni, held for nearly seven years before his trial, was just a paid employee of the fugitive al Qaeda leader, a driver in the motor pool who never joined the militant group or plotted attacks on America.

2. How does the Al Queda deputy know what happened on the plane?

4. "If they hadn't shot down the fourth plane it would've hit the dome,"

Crash planes in WTC = OK.(No planes were shot down).

Crash planes in the U.S. Capitol = No way.:wtf:

5. This trial is a pathetic, shameful mockery of Justice.

6. It would be too embarrassing for Cheney to let a plane, whose flight plan he had prior knowledge of

crash into the White House. Never mind the political problems the bu$h administration would have with having a plane crash into the Capitol.
