DUBLIN, Ireland, Sept. 2 (UPI) -- The mother of the Sept. 11 "20th hijacker" Zacarias Moussaoui says her son was driven to extremism partly by growing up a North African Muslim in France.
Aicha el-Wafi told CNN she did not realize how radical her son's views had become until after his arrest in the United States. Moussaoui spoke to the network while she was in Dublin, Ireland, at a recent conference on combating terrorism.
