I don't agree with this...
Edited on Thu Feb-10-05 09:22 PM by RBHam
I started a thread on the fact that the 9-11 commsioners were on Hardball doing their Cover Up song and dance...

It was moved to the obscure, segregated "9-11 Forum", where the uncomfortable truth won't disturb those Deeply Deluded Democrats who so desperately cling to the Big Lie that 9-11 was solely engineered and executed by Arab Islamic Extremists and that it was all just REAL BAD LUCK on the part of the US's Intel networks and GOOD TIMING on part of Atta's 19 hijackers.

Even though every single operative who could be held responsible for their FAILURE to stop 9-11 has been promoted and rewarded or both ever since!

SUCCESS is usually rewarded...

Not FAILURE!

Get it, yet????

Good God, people...

This is how Right Wing crimes and their cover up operations are aided and abetted, consciously or not.

6. I did, they haven't replied...

I believe that by segregating this discussion from GDers you are doing a disservice to the quest for the truth.

I believe that the import of this thread to ALL DUers is far too important for that, and that this issue of the FAA warnings and the suppression of the report are Red Flags to those still on the fence.

It's time to stop reflexively moving controversial posts just because the sensibilities of some timid, moderate Dems may be injured.

The truth is coming out. Don't try and insulate people from finally realizing that 9-11 HAD to have been aided and abetted by Bush Mafia insiders.

Nothing else makes any sense.

3. Here were my thoughts once again....
...Thomas Keans and Lee Hamilton to talk about the newly released warnings by intelligence sources to the FAA early in 2001. Four things that Keans and Hamilton said during the interview which has compromised their credibility:

A. When asked by Mathews why the report which the 9-11 commission had on this information only now has come out the commission heads answers were that the commission had released the report, but due to bureaucratic delays and just the way officials business works, the information was not declassified for the public until this week, nearly eight months after the commission gave its full report to the public and well after the presidential election. -- Commissioners Kean and Hamilton credibility compromised by blaming bureaucratic delays on something that the public needed to know about the events leading up to the 9-11 attacks.

B. Then Mathews asked why if the FAA had this information back in early 2001, well before the events and the intelligence clearly was suggesting that a suicidal terrorist high jacking of planes with spectacular explosions was eminent, why the FAA didn't prepare better, placed more sky marshals on planes tightened up security at domestic airports. -- Commissioners Kean and Hamilton credibility compromised by suggesting that no body was prepared because there was no past experience of such a thing happening here and the powers felt it was most likely to happen overseas anyway and not in the U.S.

C. Mathews then showed the video of the now famous press conference statement by Condi Rice where she stated that nobody could have foreseen these events and Chris makes his soft-hardball pitch that surely those who were at the head of the agencies should have been able to piece the intelligence together enough back before 9-11 attacks that some kind of alarm should have gone out. Commissioners Kean and Hamilton credibility compromised by claiming that there really was no one with the specific job to do such a thing at that time including Condi Rice whose job was National Security Advisor. Uhmmm.

D. Mathews then asked what the country has learned about terrorists threats are we in fact protected now and if so by whom and how. Thomas Keans made the statement that the best protection is by the passengers themselves and that if they suspect or see a threat to take matters into their own hands to stop it. Hamilton did not offer an alternative to that and even laughed along with Keans. -- Commissioners Kean and Hamilton credibility compromised by suggesting such an outrageous vigilante type solution as to have passengers take matters into their own hands to ensure their own safety.

I am now left with the impression that a bipartisan coverup has taken place on a massive scale and our government along with leaders in both parties are hiding critical facts about 9-11 from the American people and we will never be allowed to know what really happened. What do DUers think?
