The theory, which I meekly offered last week, that Able Danger may have mixed up Atta (aka Mohamed el-Amir) with another Mohamed al-Amir, is gaining credence. As blogger Strata-Sphere pointed out, there's a link between the other al-Amir and Sheik Rahman, best known as the blind cleric connected to WTC I bombing. Could Able Danger have mixed up the two al-Amirs? Well, again as Strata-Sphere notes, it's sure telling that an Able Danger guys says "Atta" was spotted by A.D. thanks to... his connections Sheik Rahman. (Bonus explication for the slow: Atta wasn't connected to Rahman, but according to long-ago press reports, other al-Amir was.)
