August 6, 2001, a CIA memo was presented to President Bush entitled <br>"Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US". (1) According to Ron Suskind, Bush's <br>response to the briefing was to tell his CIA representative "All right. You've <br>covered your ass, now." (2)<br><br>National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice had already received dire warnings <br>about upcoming al Qaeda attacks in CIA briefings on May 30 and July 10. <br>The CIA's Cofer Black said "The only thing we didn't do was pull the trigger to <br>the gun we were holding to her head." Though warnings came from 4 FBI offices <br>and 13 foreign countries (Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Italy, Germany, Afghanistan, <br>Cayman Islands, Argentina, Russia, the UK, Morocco, the UAE, and India), Dr. <br>Rice told the 9/11 Commission she could not remember if before 9/11 she <br>discussed with the president the presence of al Qaeda cells inside the United <br>States. (3)<br><br>Many of the warnings were quite specific. One from a former Iranian intelligence<br>figure resulted in an FBI memo entitled "Kamikaze Pilots". (4) Vladimir Putin<br>warned of suicide pilots training for attacks in the USA. (5) FBI agents warned<br>of upcoming attacks in lower Manhattan. (6) Israel warned of terrorists inside <br>the USA planning something big, and they named names including at least four <br>alleged 9/11 plotters. (7) (8) Two of these were already known to the CIA as al <br>Qaeda agents inside the USA and. according to Bob Woodward, they bought <br>ten airline tickets for September 11, 2001 under their real names, and this fact <br>could have been turned up by a simple credit-card check. (9) <br><br>When Condi testified under oath to the 9/11 Commission, she claimed emphatically<br>that the "Bin Laden Determined to Strike in US" memo was not a warning. (3) The<br>Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission, Dr. Philip Zelikow, was an old friend of <br>Condi's--they'd authored a book together, and he'd served on the transition team <br>with her at the beginning of the Bush term. Zelikow was overheard telephoning the <br>CIA authors of the memo to ask them to validate Condi's assessment. They refused, <br>telling the 9/11 Commission that they intended the memo to indicate that the threat <br>of an attack was "current and serious". (10) <br><br>The German journalist,
Oliver Schröm, tells us that the 1-1/2 page memo we have<br>seen was only part of the memo--the whole thing was 11-1/2 pages. (8) Peculiar<br>redactions at the bottom of both pages seem to be consistent with a 12-page memo. <br>They're placed centrally, like page number notations. They're too long to fit "Page<br>1 of 2" but they fit "Page 12 of 12" very nicely. The redactions are discussed at the <br>end of this 5-minute video "Condi Lied Under Oath to the 9/11 Widows".<br><font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcrgeuLb3dQ&list=UUCU5Ac7Vd7cqPk074nnKSTw&index=10&feature=plcp">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcrgeuLb3dQ&list=UUCU5Ac7Vd7cqPk074nnKSTw&index=10&feature=plcp</a></font><br><br><br>(1) <font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://articles.cnn.com/2004-04-10/politics/august6.memo_1_bin-conduct-terrorist-attacks-abu-zubaydah?_s=PM:ALLPOLITICS">http://articles.cnn.com/2004-04-10/politics/august6.memo_1_bin-conduct-terrorist-attacks-abu-zubaydah?_s=PM:ALLPOLITICS</a></font><br>(2) <font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/19/AR2006061901211.html">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/19/AR2006061901211.html</a></font><br>(3) <font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://govinfo.library.unt.edu/911/archive/hearing9/9-11Commission_Hearing_2004-04-08.htm">http://govinfo.library.unt.edu/911/archive/hearing9/9-11Commission_Hearing_2004-04-08.htm</a></font><br>(4) <font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/2011/02/01/the-fbi-%25E2%2580%259Ckamikaze-pilots%25E2%2580%259D-case/">http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/2011/02/01/the-fbi-%E2%80%9Ckamikaze-pilots%E2%80%9D-case/</a><br>(5) </font><font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,53065,00.html">http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,53065,00.html</a></font><br>(6) <a href="http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/October-2002/True-Believer/">http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/October-2002/True-Believer/</a><br>(7) http://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/cia-pannen-mossad-agenten-waren-atta-auf-der-spur-a-216421.html<br><font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2">(8) </font><font style="font-size: 10pt;" face="Tahoma" size="2"><a href="http://www.antiwar.com/article.php?articleid=2305">http://www.antiwar.com/article.php?articleid=2305</a><br>(9) Woodward, State of Denial p. 79-80<br>(10) Shenon, The Commission p. 374-85<br></font> </div></body>
