Nizar Trabelsi
 Nizar Trabelsi was born in Tunisia on 07/02/1970. He moved to Germany as a player in the German Bundesliga team - Fortuna Dusseldorf in 1988. The team soon dropped Nizar Trabelsi. He drifted from team to team, developed a cocaine habit and racked up criminal offenses.
Nizar Trabelsi was recruited to Radical Islamism by Jamel Beghal at a mosque in Dostrum, a city in northwestern Germany in the mid 90s’, when he leaved a German prison in 1995. He soon became associated with other Islamic cells in Europe, the Frankfurt Group, the BELGIUM cell and with the Islamic method of Takfir wal-Hijra* practiced by Al Qaeda.
Nizar Trabelsi visited, since 1996, several times in Afghanistan. In his visits in Afghanistan Nizar Trabelsi met several times Osama Bin Laden in Kandahâr who encouraged him to be a Mujahid (holly warrior) and tried to convince him to accept a suicide mission in Europe.
Nizar Trabelsi last visit in Afghanistan was in 02/2001 when they discussed the possible use of Sarin gas in future terror attacks. On that visit Nizar Trabelsi committed himself, eventually, to a suicide attack against American targets in Europe after seeing pictures of a Palestinian baby girl, who was killed in the Gaza Strip in 2001.
Nizar Trabelsi was arrested in Brussels on 09/13/2001, two days after The 9/11. His arrest led to the discovery of the raw materials for a huge bomb in the back of a Brussels restaurant. He was also interrogated on his role in a planned US Paris Embassy attack scheduled to 11/2001, which was plotted in his mosque in Dostrum by Jamel Beghal the ringleader.
On 09/30/2003 a court in Brussels, Belgium, convicted Nizar Trabelsi for planning to detonate a car bomb containing 850 kilograms of Nitrates and 100 kilograms of Sulphur, at the Kleine Brogel air base, which houses U.S. soldiers. The attack was scheduled to the beginning of 2002. Nizar Trabelsi was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment. Because Belgium has no specific anti-terror laws, Nizar Trabelsi was charged with attempting to destroy public property, illegal arms possession and membership in a private militia.
