Sept 11 accused removed from own trial

Proclaiming: “I am al-Qaida!”, Zacharias Moussaoui was escorted from a federal courtroom in Alexandria, Virginia today at the outset of jury selection in his terrorist conspiracy trial.

Moussaoui, held for more than four years in the Alexandria Jail, is appearing in the heavily guarded courtroom a few miles from the Pentagon, one of the targets of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
