I think it might be worthwhile to remind people that, when the third plane hit the Pentagon on 9/11, the Pakistani general heading ISI happened to be meeting in a congressional office building with congressional leaders of the intel committees (Rep. Goss and Sen. Graham, if memory serves.) He later had to resign from his position because India leaked to its press that the general had wired Atta $100,000 shortly before. We now know the target of Flight 93 was the Capitol. I wonder if the general was supposed to go into action if and when the Capitol was hit.

It's amazing that story never crossed the Atlantic.

Imagine if that had been an Iraqi general!

One wonders if between the islamists scheduled in the WH for later that day and the General in DC, were ultimatums planned to be issued to the USG? Farfetched but the whole story about that day is a long way from being told.
