 But which Mohammed Atta was it? The great patsy shuffle continues... From MadCowMorningNews Dec 11 2006: " Wolfgang Bohringer, the German pilot who was one of Mohamed Atta’s closest associates in Florida as well as the subject of an FBI terror alert in the South Pacific, was apprehended two weeks ago and taken into custody, but then was almost immediately released after he told authorities responsible for his capture that he works for the CIA.[...]
"U.S. authorities raised an alarm over the plan by the German pilot — linked to the Sept. 11 terror attacks — to build a flying school in the remote South Pacific island nation," stated an AP report picked up by the New York Times-owned International Herald Tribune.

Bohringer fled tiny Fanning Island after a story in the MadCowMorningNews headlined "Close Associate of Mohamed Atta Surfaces in South Pacific" drew attention to his suspicious intention to open, on an island with no electricity and barely a hundred inhabitants, more than a thousand miles from a city of any size, a flight school to train pilots to fly only DC3's.
Then, two weeks ago, German pilot Wolfgang Bohringer was arrested. And notwithstanding the American public’s much-abused right-to-know, the news was to remain a closely-guarded secret, one person close to the investigation told us.
"There could be national security reasons for keeping this information quiet."

Bohringer told authorities that he worked for the Central Intelligence Agency. The revelation brought his immediate release.

During the time she lived with the terrorist ringleader, Spring of 2001, Atta and Wolfgang were "inseparable," [Atta ladyfriend] Keller stated. The two could be seen tooling around together in Bohringer’s red convertible, and drinking in Sarasota nightclubs. They had been thrown out of an area Hooters together for harassing the waitresses.
Bohringer's relationship with Atta also appeared to be of long-standing, pre-dating the time both were in Florida, according to the same eyewitness. Atta always spoke German with Wolfgang, who was in his thirties, said Keller.
