- Anti-leak policy enacted at Pentagon before and after
9-11. According to a senior Pentagon official, the Pentagon issued a strict
anti-leak policy to Pentagon employees prior to and just after 9-11. The
order was particularly emphasized to Air Force employees at the Pentagon.
-
- A U.S. Army Pentagon employee confirmed that the Army
was also subject to an anti-leak policy around the time of 9-11. After
the 9-11 events, employees were strictly prohibited from discussing aspects
of the crash of American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon and the confiscation
by the FBI of security video tapes from the Pentagon and surrounding facilities.
-
- The pre-911 Pentagon prohibitions on leaks to the media
add to debate about how much pre-intelligence about the 9-11 attacks was
known to the Bush administration.
