Do you have a link handy for a full transcript of the hearing (the parts that haven't been redacted)?

'Plaza Bank' in Washington on al-Qaida list

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEATTLE -- A document released by the Pentagon says the "Plaza Bank" in Washington was on al-Qaida's list of targets.

Since al-Qaida targeted tall, high-profile targets it may be a reference to the 76-story Columbia Center, the tallest building in Washington.

The document is the censored transcript of the closed-door tribunal at Guantanamo Bay for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (HAH'-leed shayk moh-HAH'-med). It says he confessed to planning Nine Eleven and 30 other plots.

Another downtown Seattle bank is the "Bank of America Fifth Avenue Plaza."

Seattle F-B-I agent Ray Lauer says he could not comment on what Mohammed might have meant or whether the F-B-I was previously warned to take any special precautions involving such a bank.
