A former FBI agent who worked on an investigation into the 9/11 attacks says two of the hijackers likely had help in the US. Danny Gonzalez was involved in the still-classified FBI investigation 'Operation Encore,' which looked into two of the hijackers living in San Diego before the attacks, and whether they had help. Fifteen of the 19 September 11 hijackers were Saudi citizens.
