"DR. RICE: Steve, I don't think anybody could have predicted that these people would take an airplane and slam it into the World Trade Center, take another one and slam it into the Pentagon; that they would try to use an airplane as a missile, a hijacked airplane as a missile. All of this reporting about hijacking was about traditional hijacking. You take a plane -- people were worried they might blow one up, but they were mostly worried that they might try to take a plane and use it for release of the blind Sheikh or some of their own people. "

It's just foolish to lie about what Condi said in public. You can't distort what's in the public record.

Well, forgive me for not getting the quote exactly right, but nothing in your post detracts from mine. Airplanes as missiles would be a logical scenario, hijackers or not.
