Someone posted, "Al Qaeda" as one of the first replies on one of the first Breaking News threads after the 2nd Tower was hit.

Au Contraire....if it was common knowledge to FReepers minutes after the second plane went into WTC, it was common knowledge to the gubmint.
I'm not sure how to link it up, but check my profile page for links and see the "Second Plane" thread - you'll be amazed at some of the posting times.

It's my understanding that they actually considered several sources for the terrorist attack. Nevertheless, there are ample connections between AQ and Iraq--they trained AQ fer cryin' out loud.

I think people made educated guesses, but no one really knew for certain.
If I remember correctly, WE were talking about Iraq the first 24 hours as well, not just the "White House". I smell a rat

I was watching FNC live when the second plane hit the WTC. It was only seconds before the guy who was anchoring (John ???) mentioned OBL. My brain was still trying to process what my eyes had just seen.

Why does Clarke seem to have jumped to the conclusion on 9/11 that AQ was responsible? What information did he have at that point which proved this?

Chris Matthews is still not sure. This is what he said last night :
" Al Queda was behind 9/11-apparently."
