The 9/11 commission is expected to reveal later this week that at least eight of the 9/11 hijackers passed through Iran in late 2000 and early 2001 and that Iran has a history of allowing Al Qaeda members to enter and leave the country across the Afghan border. This according to a report in Time Magazine. The commission however found no evidence that Iran was aware of the 9/11 attack plans. The Commission is also expected to recommend the creation of a Cabinet-level national intelligence director to oversee all of the government’s 15 intelligence agencies.
