Thanks! That article suggests another was the plotter:
“Unlike some terrorist leaders – including Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the late leader of the Islamic State jihadist group, and Ayman al-Zawahiri, the late al-Qaeda chief and accused plotter of the 9/11 terrorist attacks – al-Sharaa has not been known as a charismatic leader, said Warrick.”
I assume they’re talking about Ahmad al-Sharaa: https://abcnews.go.com/International/al-qaeda-syrias-presidency-rise-ahmad-al-sharaa/story?id=121788656 although I’m unsure about the claim of “ordering the attacks”
The depressing thing is that I thought they were referring to the Saudis and the latest U.S. investment trip.

Not to mention that al-Sharaa was a 19-year-old with no known status in any groups at the time of the 9/11 attacks.
