In 2002, as news of the August 2001 briefing began to emerge, the Bush Cartel hauled out Condi to “explain” that it was true that Bush had been warned that it was highly possible that Al-Qaeda hijackings might occur in the near future, but that Bush wasn’t told specifically about plans to attack the World Trade Center or Pentagon so he didn’t take action to protect them. The press dutifully accepted this explanation.
But as BuzzFlash pointed out at the time — and we assume most second graders would understand this, but apparently not the mainstream press — the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon WERE hijackings.
If Bush had taken steps after his pre-9/11 security briefing to put law enforcement and airport security on heightened alert, he might very well have prevented the hijacking attacks on the WTC and the Pentagon. But the American press and the TV pundits couldn’t figure out this little bit of basic common sense and convinced the American public that Condi had cleared everything up.
It staggers the mind that they could get away with this transparent, nonsensical, lie. Condi admitted that Bush was warned about potentially imminent hijackings the source of the 9/11 attacks — and that he did nothing to prevent these hijackings: nothing! That is the bottom line, period. Remember that Condi Rice is the source of this information, not BuzzFlash. (”White House officials acknowledged that U.S. intelligence officials informed President Bush weeks before the Sept. 11 attacks that bin Laden’s terrorist network might try to hijack American planes.” [ABC News, 5/16/03].) …{{link http://www.buzzflash.com/editorial/04/03/edi04020.html/ MORE}}
