Sounds entirely plausible, but its a different Mohammad Atta in this case...lots of these folks walking around with the very same names. It might be interesting though to know who exactly authorized the "blind cleric" Egyptian coming to America who helped plot the 1st attempt at the WTC. Tom remembering the Palestinian with "financial problems" who felt the need to go to The Empire State Bldg observation deck to shoot everyone. kinda similar to the LA limo driver who had to go the airport, to the El Al desk, on an American holiday, with lots of extra ammo.....oh, yeah, and the kid who flew the plane into the FLA office tower.....(and left a note as to his reasons... which was summarily dismissed.)
