His drinking buddy, Christopher Isham, formerly of ABC, but now VP of CBS News Washington, said (at about 45 minutes in) that "it was known that Yemenis were involved in the 9/11 attacks."

I don't recall any hijackers from Yemen. I wonder to whom he was referring.

Ramzi bin al-Shibh is from Yemen, accused of being a "key facilitator for the September 11 attacks", was held at Guantanamo (still there I believe) and was tortured by the CIA.

Khallad bin Attash is another Yemeni who was tortured at a CIA black site in Poland, and accused of training 9/11 hijackers.
