Rich, Even the reports that stated that the Pentagon was most likely the primary target (Sept 21, Washington Post), state that Flight 77 was approaching on line with the White House, then turned away (about 10 miles away from the warning area) making a 270 degree turn to strike the Pentagon. In fact the article states that part of the reason why the Pentagon is now believed to have been the primary target, is that turn was so well executed. I seem to recall that the helipad that flight 77 hit, was where the Marine 1 was supposed to land latter that day. In addition, President Mubarak had previously warned the U.S. that Bin Laden was planning to kill the President by ordering that an airplane crash into him (LA Times Sept 27) at the G8 meeting. This warning was discounted (apparently) by the United States, but the Italians worried enough about it to station anti-aircraft weapons at Genoa's airport. And I'm sure once the planes hit the WTC, the earlier warning must have suddenly been remembered by the Secret Service.
