The Bush administration ignored the issue of terrorism
from the moment it assumed office:
- They ignored the final report of the Hart-Rudman
commission, the Road Map for National Security: Imperative for Change,
that was issued on January 31, 2001 (
www.cjr.org/year/01/6/evans.asp )
- They blocked Senate hearings on the Hart-Rudman
commission's report, scheduled for the week of May 7, 2001, by
announcing a brand new commission led by Vice President Dick Cheney -
which never met before 911 (
www.cjr.org/year/01/6/evans.asp )
- They ignored repeated requests from the Hart-Rudman
commission from January 2001 to September 6, 2001, when National
Security adviser Condoleezza Rice said she would "pass on" their
concerns (
www.cjr.org/year/01/6/evans.asp )
- They ignored repeated requests from Senator Dianne
Feinstein to restructure US counter-terrorism and homeland defense
programs, starting in July 2001 and continuing through September 10,
2001, when Dick Cheney's Chief of Staff told Feinstein to wait 6 months
(
www.senate.gov/~feinstein/Releases02/attacks.htm )
- They ignored the report of the Gore Commission on
Aviation Safety and Security (
www.fas.org/irp/threat/212fin~1.html )
The Bush administration changed Bill Clinton's policy
towards Afghanistan to appease Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and their Saudi
backers to promote the interests of oil companies, putting profits for
campaign contributors ahead of fighting terrorism:
When appeasement failed, the Bush administration then
prepared for war against Afghanistan:
- They issued an ultimatum to the Taliban in July 2001,
telling them to turn over Osama Bin Laden and permit Unocal to build a
pipeline across Afghanistan in return for a "carpet of gold" - or face a
"carpet of bombs" (
http://democrats.com/view.cfm?id=5166 )
- They prepared a National Security Presidential
Directive on September 9, 2001, a detailed "game plan to remove al-Qaida
from the face of the Earth" (
http://www.msnbc.com/news/753359.asp?cp1=1 )
The Bush administration ignored numerous warnings from
US and foreign agencies:
- They ignored warnings as early as June from the
National Security Agency's Echelon electronic spy network that Middle
Eastern terrorists were planning to hijack commercial aircraft to use as
weapons to attack important symbols of American and Israeli culture (
http://www.newsbytes.com/news/01/170072.html )
- They ignored warnings from an FBI agent in Phoenix on
July 10, 2001 about suspicious Arab pilots with ties to Al Qaeda who
were training in a local flight school, urging a nationwide
investigation of Arab students in flight schools (
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A30176-2002May16.html
)
- Bush personally ignored warnings from the CIA on
August 6, 2001 that Al Qaeda planned to hijack US planes (
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35744-2002May17.html
)
- They ignored warnings from Jordanian intelligence in
the summer that a major attack was planned inside the US using airplanes
- (
http://www.iht.com/cgi-bin/generic.cgi?template=articleprint.tmplh&ArticleId=58269
)
- They ignored warnings from Israeli intelligence in
August that large-scale terrorist attacks on highly visible targets on
the American mainland were imminent, organized by a cell of as many of
200 terrorists said to be preparing a big operation (
http://www.dailytelegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2001/09/16/wcia16.xml
)
- They ignored warnings from Russian intelligence in
August that at least 25 terrorist were trained in Afghanistan and
Pakistan to attack US targets, with future plans to attack financial,
nuclear, and space facilities (
http://www.fromthewilderness.com/free/ww3/izvestia_story_pic.html )
- They ignored warnings from Moroccan intelligence in
August that Bin Laden was "very disappointed" by the failure of the 1993
WTC bombing, and planned "large-scale operations in New York in the
summer or autumn of 2001" (
http://www.iht.com/cgi-bin/generic.cgi?template=articleprint.tmplh&ArticleId=58269
)
- They ignored warnings from Egyptian president Hosni
Mubarak on August 31 of an impending attack on the US (
http://globalresearch.ca/articles/LEB112A.html )
- They ignored phone calls from Abu Zubaida, bin
Laden's chief of operations, to the United States that were intercepted
by the National Security Agency shortly before 911 (
http://abcnews.go.com/sections/wnt/DailyNews/wnt_missedsignals_1_020218.html
)
- They ignored an extraordinary number of "puts" on the
stocks which were hardest hit by the 911 attacks, including American and
United airlines, in the days leading up to 911 (
http://news.independent.co.uk/business/news/story.jsp?story=99402 )
The Bush administration failed to take meaningful
precautions against a terrorist attack when so many warnings were being
issued:
On 911, Bush failed to take decisive action:
- George W. Bush said on two occasions that he saw the
first plane hit the World Trade Center at 8:46 a.m. on 911, and was told
by Andrew Card about the second plane hitting the World Trade Center at
9:05 a.m. - yet Bush did nothing but listen to a children's story until
9:30 a.m. instead of ordering fighter jets to intercept all hijacked
planes immediately (
http://democrats.com/view.cfm?id=6061 )
- George W. Bush and Dick Cheney ordered the Pentagon
to shoot down Flight 93 over Pennsylvania at 9:55 a.m., but could have
shot down the other three flights if they had not waited so long to act
(
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A42754-2002Jan26 )
- Following 911, Bush used the tragedy to promote the
agenda of his wealthy and powerful supporters:
- Bush pushed through the USA Patriot Act, which
rewarded right-wing opponents of freedom and civil liberties
- Bush demanded additional tax cuts for the wealthy
using the pretense of "stimulating" the economy
- Bush massively increased defense spending, to the
direct personal benefit of his father and his cronies in the Carlyle
Group
To cover up his failures, the Bush administration
resorted to stonewalling, finger pointing, and lies about 911:
They have continually lied about the extent of the
warnings about the 911 attack
- Shortly after 911, Ari Fleischer declared flatly that
there were "no warnings"
- When it was revealed in May 2002 that the CIA briefed
Bush personally on August 6, 2001, they claimed that the briefing did
not address terrorist attacks in the US; then they claimed it was a
"low-level" briefing based on only one warning
Condoleezza Rice said, "I don't think anyone could
have predicted that these people... would try to use an airplane as a
missile, a hijacked airplane as a missile." (5/16/02)
- The Pentagon commissioned a study in 1993 called
"Terrorism 2000", which predicted multiple simultaneous attacks, the use
of airplanes as weapons, targeting of large landmarks and financial
centers, etc. (
http://www.infowar.com/class_3/class3_081398a_j.shtml )
- A Fedex employee tried to crash a DC-10 into FedEx HQ
in Memphis in 1994, but was apprehended
- An Islamic fundamentalist group hijacked an Air
France flight and loaded it with 27 tons of fuel to destroy the Eiffel
Tower, but special forces stormed the plane on the ground
- Abdul Hakim Murad and Ramsey Yousef conceived of
'Project Bojinka' in 1995, a plan to blow up 11 US airline flights over
the Pacific in 1995, and to crash airplanes into the Pentagon and the
CIA, which definitely caught the attention of counter-terrorism experts
in the US (
http://www.mediamonitors.net/mosaddeq36.html#_Toc9410681 )
- The Library of Congress Report on The Sociology And
Psychology Of Terrorism warned in 1999 about suicide hijackers ( http://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/Sociology-Psychology
of Terrorism.htm )
- The Pentagon conducted a drill in December 2000 to
respond to an airline crashing into the Pentagon (
http://www.mdw.army.mil/news/Contingency_Planning.html ) Since
removed. See it here.
- U.S. and Italian officials were warned in July
2001 that Islamic terrorists might attempt to kill President Bush and
other leaders by crashing an airliner into the Genoa summit of
industrialized nations (
http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-092701genoa.story
)
They did everything possible to block an independent
commission investigation
- Bush and Cheney personally called Senate Majority
Leader Tom Daschle urging him not to conduct an investigation (
http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/01/29/inv.terror.probe /)
- When pressure for an independent commission became
too strong, they suddenly announced warnings of another attack -
although they did not raise the official alert level above yellow,
leading to widespread speculation of a deliberately false alarm to stop
the momentum
- When the Independent Commission finally began its
work, Bush used Nixon's dictatorial doctrine of "Executive Privilege" to
deny commissioners access to crucial documents (
http://www.msnbc.com/m/pt/printthis.asp?storyID=910676 )
George W. Bush himself has repeatedly JOKED about the
911 attack:
- "Lucky me. I hit the trifecta," George W. Bush,
shortly after 9/11-quoted by Bush Budget Director Mitch Daniels,
11/28/01

The world gets crazier and crazier everyday, doesn't it? The world that many
of us thought was there, isn't. The bottom has dropped out of everything. The
illusions have been revealed, we have found out who has been pulling the strings
behind the scenes. Millions have lost their jobs, have mortgage
problems, and
foreclosure. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been
taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild
dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government
of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit
me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its
laws." Get
the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system.
It's all about 'commerce'. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for
each individual. Not only does this end
personal debt, it places the people first in line
as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for
you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A
New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study. Is
your credit rating bad for reasons that seem out of your control? There are
ways of credit repair,
so you can men those broken fences too. Do you want to keep your children protected
from outside forces, there are ways of protecting
your children. Do you want
to keep your sons and daughters free from 'the draft'? Check this out.
