As I read your post I sat dazed that anyone would post such a perfect proof .... how fast one can speculate that 911 was an attack is an amusing revelation. Some of us think a little quicker off the T and faster than others, so be amused i was witnessing it in real time too.... and I'm sure a great deal of very trite & small mundane things in life amuse you . (I notice over 80 people have you on ignore, good job Thomas ) But the suggestion that some 3 min response force capable of point defense should be 24/7/365 ready. Now that is idiotville to the max. What would be your estimation of the response time for sealing off of the airspace surrounding White House lets say --> pre ~ 9/11 ? 10mins ? 20mins ? 25mins? Hello ? Any lights on in that protected little enclave of that "bright" hinterland where you live ?? * The use of jet airliners as flying missles has been well documented and pattern hijackings have been used by terrorists for decades . The World Trade Center had already been targeted by terrorist car bomb attack in feb 1993 and it killed six, injured over 1,000 people....maybe your memory is a bit slipping ? And the goal of that attack was to devastate the foundation of the north tower in such a way in that it would collapse onto its twin. To say that it was unknown that these Towers were of supreme importance as vital targets & symbols of the Western decadence is completely naive . OBL had already mentioned them as a targets and this we were aware . Of any City in the US that would warrant such instant arial protective response , it would have been NYC being one of the world's top premier vital financial Hubs . It would be much cheaper to have up to dozen armed agents on every commercial flight and private flight, train, bus and let's do truck and cars> ** That's a little extreme but heading in the right direction , and yes , since Munich and other terrorists incidents/hijackings since , in a rapidly radicalized Islamic world ... someone got the big picture .

Bushies are so desperate to hang onto power at all costs that they're now trying to turn our nation into a mob of crazy lunatics almost as bad as the Jihadist bozos. It's got to stop. Bushies had their chance and failed. Time for brand new muchy more honest and sane leadership. Republicans need to stop coddling and appeasing Bush and his people. You have to admit they are not competant and many of them are quasi fascists. They also chated to steal both elections so they don't even deserve to be in there in the first place. Clinton, Gore, Kerry all sound tens times as sane and rational. They actually know how to make good things happen. Bushies are like unruly children who only know how to break things, not build anything.
