Eleven commercial airlines are missing after Tripoli International
Airport was taken over by Islamist rebels late last month in Libya.
U.S. officials reportedly fear the airplanes will be used to carry out
9/11-style terrorist attacks for the thirteenth anniversary in a little
more than a week. September 11 also marks the second anniversary of the
raid on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya which resulted in the
deaths of four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
