Changed: 18c18

It is believed that Atta was a ring leader of the terrorist attacks and probably piloted the plane. His father, a retired lawyer in Egypt, characterized this accusation in an interview as ridiculous, calling his son gentle and shy.

It is believed that Atta was a ring leader of the terrorist attacks and probably piloted the plane. In a video released by the US government, Osama bin Laden points to Atta as the leader of the attacks (see videos of bin Laden). Atta's father, a retired lawyer in Egypt, characterized this accusation in an interview as ridiculous, calling his son gentle and shy.
