I'm not a journalist, writer or investigator. I am, by chance, a witness to some very significant matters.

September 1997: When employed as a field service technician by a Queen's Award winning British engineering export company I was sent to install printing machinery for a new customer in Yemen. That factory turned out to be Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s front company located inside the Hayel Saeed Anam (HSA) Group's Taiz headquarters, 17-miles south of Al Qaidah town. After being vetted over dinner at my hotel by Yousef, I was introduced to the Engineer (KSM) the next morning by the HSA Group HQ's managing director Saeed Alrobaidi, aka the Chief. His general manager Mohamed A. Salem then took me to an unscheduled meeting one mile from Al Qaidah town - it was a recruitment interview that I cut short before it'd even begun. Those meetings occurred after KSM's Pakistani chemical engineers who I was training asked me about visiting New York as tourists. I repeated a warning I'd first given to a customer in Toronto on 12 June 1997, after flying there from Boston's Logan airport: I told them not to visit the World Trade Center (WTC) and to resist any hijacking attempts, after I'd explained my fear of the 1993 WTC bomb group trying again but next time using a hijacked plane as a missile. Little did I know that I was already in the lions den - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's new Yemen HQ - sent there by my British employer JM Heaford Limited, my parents' company. On January 8, 2020 my parents' US sales agent David Dean, a 101st Airborne Vietnam veteran of Hamburger Hill, killed himself by drowning in Lake Hartwell. That happened after I tweeted about his links to CIA contractor Billy Waugh via their Vietnam service, and saying Dean set up the machine sale to KSM's front company in Yemen at an exhibition in Chicago on 14 April 1997. In his 2004 autobiography Billy Waugh admitted working with Al Qaeda operators in 1990s Yemen.
I also deployed with the British army to 2012 Afghanistan, a vehicle mechanic working in Camp Bastion's light vehicles workshop. I did many airfield guard duties and five top-cover vehicle patrols too. The Afghan Reports tab details my experiences and specifically my subsequent efforts to expose NATO's corrupt incompetence and criminal alliances that wasted so much blood and treasure.
I’m documenting my experiences so my testimony and the supporting evidence I've presented can be acted upon. I declined a 9 March 2018 9/11 Military Commission invitation to interview from US Pentagon based investigators because they were working for KSM's nephew's defence attorneys and wouldn't discuss my witness status. British security services are spying on and targeting me for retribution, but refuse to acknowledge my reports or investigate my claims. Britain's Secret Intelligence Service, Parliament's Intelligence & Security Committee and the US Embassy London have all been formally informed of my experiences in 1997 Yemen, via my MP Sir Graham Brady on 27 March 2017.
