- Commission Has Not Compelled Three Individuals Having
Most Power To Affect Immediate Action On 9-11 To Explain Their Failure
To Defend America. All Three Remained In Offices And An Elementary Classroom
While Four Planes Crashed. This, Despite Having 25 Minutes Advance Notice
From Secret Service, Pentagon, And Air Traffic Controllers Prior To First
Crash--But Also A Full Summer Of Frantic But Now Classified Briefings About
"Planes Used As Weapons To Crash Into Buildings," Thus Permitting
White House To Shield Its Prior-Knowledge.

-- Tomorrow's public hearing on Capitol Hill, held by the National Commission
on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, will focus upon how intelligence
affects the War on Terrorism. However, the ten-member commission is continuing
to hear expert witness testimony mostly from former government officials
rather than compelling public testimony from current high-ranking individuals
in the executive branch to defend their lack of decisive action on September
11, 2001.
-
- Since the dramatic testimony and hallway media interviews
held last May 22-23 involving military generals and the Transportation
Department, the Commission has restrained itself from compelling President
George W. Bush, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and Joint Chiefs of
Staff Chairman Richard Myers to explain their highly questionable actions
on the day of the attacks. The timeline of events is astonishing, in and
of itself.
-
- The first commandeered plane, American flight 11, was
considered hijacked at 8:13 am [33 minutes prior to crashing into the North
Tower at 8:46], having failed to follow flight instructions from air traffic
controllers, after which it turned 100 degrees south toward New York City
at 8:20 am. At that time, according to our conversation with a Department
of Transportation source, phone bridges were established linking Secret
Service, Defense Department, NORAD, Transportation Department officials--and
others. Thus, President Bush's Secret Service detail in Florida was well
aware of a hijacking some 25 minutes before any of the planes impacted
the World Trade Center, Pentagon, or the field in Pennsylvania. And Bush
himself publicly told reporters at 8:35 am that he "would have more
to say later on."
