A good starting point in the search for terrorists would be Saudi Arabia...from the Guardian

"Bin Laden is a Saudi (or 'was a Saudi' if the Americans have got lucky by the time you read this). Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were Saudis. Thousands, perhaps as many as 10,000, Saudis passed through the al-Qaeda Afghan camps, according to veterans. The success of al-Qaeda in Saudi Arabia is scarcely a surprise. The monarchy is buttressed by Western support for whatever repression it needs to keep the oil, bribes and arms contracts flowing, and by Wahhabism, the most miserable version of Islam yet invented. In return for allowing the thousands of Saudi royals to treat the country as their private property, the clerics have control of the schools and universities, where they teach that 'support for the pagan by hand, by tongue or money' is a heretical breach of Allah's injunction to 'never support the infidels'"

As l5 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi's...should be not be looking more around the sand dunes of Arabia rather than the Muslim Barios of United States?
