(CNN) -- For the first time, a video has been released showing al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden meeting with suspected terrorist Ramzi Binalshibh, purportedly as they prepare for the September 11, 2001 attacks, according to Al-Jazeera, which aired the tape Thursday.


Binalshibh is a Yemeni who allegedly admitted a role in planning the attacks. He was among 14 al Qaeda operatives that President Bush on Wednesday said had been transferred to the U.S. prison camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.


The 14 men were transferred from CIA custody so they can face military hearings if Congress approves the tribunals, the president said.

It is alleged that Binalshibh intended to be one of the September 11 hijackers but was unable to get a visa to enter the United States despite several attempts.

ps. Trivia question:

How many Bin Laden tapes/statements have been released to us in 2006?

al Jazeera was doing a "Five Years After" thing... Just like our journalists will do. Yeah the timing is convenient, because it is supposed to be to get the most impact out of the report and make mo' money!
