9/11 link to militant in Europe terror alert (AP)

A man reads the Quran inside a mosque in Hamburg, northern Germany, Thursday, Oct. 7, 2010. Hamburg security officials shuttered the al-Quds mosque, later dubbed Taiba mosque, in August, forcing its members to scatter. But authorities insist they have the city's estimated 200 extremist Muslims — including 45 al-Qaida followers — under surveillance and have sought to downplay Hamburg's role in the <b>international</b> terror scene. (AP Photo/Frank Augstein)AP - The Islamic militant whose disclosures under U.S. interrogation in Afghanistan triggered Europe’s terror alert is an old friend of a man convicted in the 9/11 attacks and, as the strikes were being planned, frequented the same mosque where the Hamburg-based plotters often met, officials say.
