A video i made on December 1,2021. Abdussattar Sheikh was an asset of the FBI’s San Diego Field Office from May 14, 1994, to July 2003. He was called "The FBI's Best Chance to Uncover September 11th Before it Happened" by the Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities before and after the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001. His hand;er was Steven Butler from the FBI's San Diego field office, and recruited him due to his personable nature and his broad influence in his Muslim community, which the FBI had "persons of interest" which they wanted to know more about.Butler had a code name for Sheikh, "Stan". By April 2000, two of the hijackers in the September 11 attacks, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, rented a room in Shaikh's home in Lemon Grove, California. Yet Sheikh, would only tell Butler, about their surnames, and also shared little menial information about their presence in the country, which they spoke hardly any English. But not everything was at it seemed. And after the events of September 11th 2001, "Stan" was not the man he claimed to be.
