NOTE: Many thanks to all the people who have helped me recently find and translate articles. New items to find keep popping up, though. All new items since the last update are italicized.
Any help in finding any of the below is most appreciated. My biggest interest right now is finding out more about the alternate identities of the 9/11 hijackers. For instance, the Telegraph said:
"The FBI had published [Saeed Alghamdi's] personal details but with a photograph of somebody else, presumably a hijacker who had "stolen" his identity. CNN, however, showed a picture of the real Mr. Alghamdi." [Telegraph, 9/23/01] Another Saudi pilot, Said Hussein al-Ghamdi, whose photograph was broadcast on CNN when it portrayed him as a hijacker, is living in Tunis. [London Times, 9/20/01]
Does anyone have the CNN picture? I can't find it. I'd like to find other pictures of the hijackers that don't appear to be the same as their official FBI photos. See the article on Ziad Jarrah for some examples of these alternate pictures depicting other people that I've found. I've come across mentions of pictures in newspaper articles in the Middle East and Africa. If anyone has the texts or pictures from articles like this, I'd appreciate it. Most of the articles I'm speaking of would be in Arabic I assume, so translation would be key as well. Here are two specifically I'm very keen on finding.

VIDEO FOOTAGE
I'd love to link to short video clips or get transcripts to these programs.

Subject: in an interview, Russian President Vladimir Putin says he "I ordered
my intelligence to warn President Bush in the strongest terms that 25 terrorists
were getting ready to attack the US, including important government buildings
like the Pentagon."
The Independent
[Independent,
8/13/02] reported:
"there was one brief report on CBS television before the crash that
two F-16 fighters were tailing Flight 93."
Does anyone have that?
A recent Al-Jazeera video featuring interviews with Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh has made a lot of news lately. Does anyone have a copy of this video and/or a transcript? HIGH PRIORITY!
Also, in
April 2001 Al-Jazeera aired a tape that included a farewell message from hijacker
Ahmed Alhaznawi
An excerpt is available with "realpass" at: http://www.cnn.com/2002/WORLD/meast/04/15/terror.tape/
but I don't have the pass.
