Rainey--re:>>1) Have interceptor jets at locations close to the two prime targets--New York City and Washington, DC--on a heightened state of alert. As it was, the jets dispatched to intercept came from far away locations compared to where they could have come from. Order of the President could have solve that! and the interceptor jets would have done what? << I was shocked at Rumsfeld's testimony. He repeatedly stated that his concern was overseas, and not domestic. It was then pointed out to him that domestic air defense was his responsibility, and he acknowledged that, but never apologized. If those planes were shot down, as is now the presidential order, we MIGHT have averted three-thousand deaths and the destruction of the WTC and part of the pentagon. That's what! fred
