My impression:
Hanning was on the right track with his “frequent” remarks about the role of the “STATE SUPPORT” for Hamburg cell, although it is unclear if he considered Germany itself in this role. It was a powerful opinion, at odds with the official version of the non-state Al Qaeda, and someone (the true culprits) probably did not like it, because it could lead directly to them. What followed, looks like a SET UP, the series of traps for Hanning, from his financial ruin (prearranged?) to his various unrelated private investigations which eventually lead to his arrest and current predicament. Now he is effectively shut off from the world and can talk only to his native BND. His former boss Gerhard Schroeder looks unconcerned about this, and, to the contrary, rather happy in his meeting with Putin: was this his birthday present?
It looks like the “STATE SUPPORT” for the Hamburg Cell, of which Hanning frequently spoke out, went directly from Gerhard Schroeder through his own channels, via the local Hamburg politicians, bypassing Hanning; otherwise Hanning would not speak about it so readily, risking to implicate himself and Germany.

The phrase “9/11: the missing link” refers to a prominent public theory and a series of high-profile statements made by August Hanning


 

Translated from German
“Disgrace,” “Bear’s Service to Peace,” “Miracle Cure à la Rasputin”: German politicians condemn Gerhard Schröder’s participation in Vladimir Putin’s birthday celebration. SPD politician Ralf Stegner, however, defends the former chancellor. Link in X-Bio.

Former German Chancellor Schröder visited Putin at home on his 74th birthday.

The Kremlin said Putin spotted Schröder was in Moscow — there for a board seat at Russian supermarket chain Hyperglobus — and invited his “old friend” over on 7 October.

The same day, Russia launched a mass strike on Ukraine killing at least 32 people.

Zelensky called it the birthday “present” Putin gave himself.

August Hanning investigation of the Hamburg cell

As the head of Germany’s Federal Intelligence Service (BND) from 1998 to 2005, August Hanning oversaw the extensive and highly controversial investigation into the Hamburg cell, the al-Qaeda network that planned and executed the September 11 attacks. [1, 2, 3, 4]
The Intelligence Failure & Initial Investigation
Prior to September 11, 2001, key hijackers including Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi, and Ziad Jarrah lived and studied in Hamburg completely undetected by German authorities. Following the attacks, Hanning and the BND faced intense pressure from both domestic critics and U.S. counter-terrorism officials for failing to identify the cell sooner. In response, Hanning mobilized the BND to audit bank accounts, intercept wiretaps, and piece together the cell’s timeline, financing, and connection to Osama bin Laden. [1, 3, 4, 5, 6]
The Capture and Interrogation of Mohammed Haydar Zammar
A focal point of Hanning’s operation was Mohammed Haydar Zammar, a radical Islamist cleric based in Hamburg who was suspected of recruiting Atta and others into the al-Qaeda network. [7]

The Detainment: In late 2001, Zammar was targeted by a joint U.S.-German intelligence effort. He was subsequently detained in Morocco and transferred to a prison in Syria. [7]
The Interrogation: Under Hanning’s direction, the BND negotiated with Syrian authorities to allow German agents to interrogate Zammar in Damascus in November 2002. Hanning later acknowledged the extreme geopolitical pressure the agency faced to obtain actionable intelligence from the cell. [3]

Recent Developments (October 2026)
Hanning’s past career and legacy have re-entered the spotlight following his arrest on October 6, 2026, on charges of treason, espionage, and trading state secrets. [8, 9]
Ironically, the investigation that led to his arrest began due to a completely unrelated child custody dispute involving prominent Hamburg businesswoman Christina Block. During police searches of Hanning’s properties linked to that case, investigators uncovered an electronic storage device containing roughly 2,000 classified BND documents. Federal prosecutors allege that a former aide, Manfred D., smuggled these secrets to Hanning over a decade, which Hanning then used for his private security consulting work and allegedly passed to foreign intelligence agencies. A German judge ordered Hanning to be held in pretrial detention. [9, 10, 11, 12]
