Due to a June 2002 article by the NY Daily News, a former CIA "mole" of middle east related "terror groups", warned about an Al Qaeda training camp, a couple of months before Sep11th: http://www.nydailynews.com/2002-06-01/News_and_Views/Beyond_the_City/a-152809.asp U.S. had agents inside al-Qaeda June 4, 2002 "U.S. intelligence overheard al-Qaeda operatives discussing a major pending terrorist attack in the weeks prior to Sept. 11 and had agents inside the terror group, but the intercepts and field reports didn't specify where or when a strike might occur, according to U.S. officials. The disclosures add to a growing body of evidence to be examined in congressional hearings that open today into how the CIA, FBI and other agencies failed to seize on intelligence pointing to the deadliest terror attack in U.S. history." http://www.usatoday.com/news/attack/2002/06/03/cia-attacks.htm In December 2001, the Washington Post reported, that "the CIA recruited and paid a team of 15 Afghan agents to track Osama bin Laden 's movements in Afghanistan." The team, whose code name is still classified, operated from early 1998 to this Sept. 11, the Post said."
