Southern District prosecutor John Cronan turned and pointed to Sulaiman Abu Ghayth as he told the jury the propagandist was at the very heart of al Qaida’s terror campaign against the United States on Sept. 11, 2001.
That same day, Cronan asserted, Osama bin Laden asked Ghayth “to send a message—a message that al Qaida’s attacks on 9/11 were justified and the United States got what it deserved” and to put the call out to young Muslim men to “help replenish al Qaida’s stock of suicide terrorists.”
