Quote:Dubai police officials are investigating at least four United States-issued credit card accounts, which they say the suspects obtained with the passports they used to travel to Dubai. The police say the suspects used the accounts to purchase plane tickets and other items related to the assassination, according to a person familiar with the investigation. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity, saying he was not authorized to discuss the matter.I don't think it is easy for anybody to get a US credit card account on just a foreign passport without any credit history. But maybe they had a little help from a three letter agency...
The most relevant literature regarding what happened since September 11, 2001 is George Orwell's "1984".
