Slap,

Thanks for those Youtube items, which I'd not seen or heard before, although many observers have referred to US policy towards the Middle East and Israel underpinning AQ's original stance / narrative. Citing the FBI agent and KSM's interview testimony is from "the horse's mouth" and far better - first-hand.

I recently read, three times, a Washington "think tank' report on radicalisation and thought something was missing. Yes, there was no mention of Israel / Palestine and after swift research found the "tank" Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WINEP) had a close association with the US-Jewish community.

This blindness does not help, politics and Politics intervene.
