[Jeff Gannon]

It's not on their website yet. because I am a White House reporter, it was emailed to me as a pdf file.

It clearly shows what frauds the Dems on the 9/11 Commission are.

The really, really scary thing is that this site could have probably given just as through a briefing as the one in question. Richard Clarke and the intelligence community had been working for decades and this was the sum of the threat intel that we had to work with the month prior to the strike.

[KC Burke]

just copy and paste the whole dang thing in the post box and we will reformat it

[tonyinv]

Can you serve it from your website..and place a link to it here?

Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.

Clandestine, foreign government, and media reports indicate Bin Ladensince 1997 has wanted to conduct terrorist attacks in the U.S. Bin Laden implied in U.S. television interviews in 1997 and 1998 that his followers would follow the example of World Trade Center bomber Ramzi Yousef and "bringthe fighting to America."

After U.S. missile strikes on his base in Afghanistan in 1998, Bin Ladentold followers he wanted to retaliate in Washington, according to a [deleted text] service.

An Egyptian Islamic Jihad (EIJ) operative told [deleted text] serviceat the same time that Bin Laden was planning to exploit the operative'saccess to the U.S. to mount a terrorist strike.

The millennium plotting in Canada in 1999 may have been part of Bin Laden's first serious attempt to implement a terrorist strike in the U.S. Convicted plotter Ahmed Ressam has told the FBI that he conceived the idea to attack Los Angeles International Airport himself, but that BinLaden lieutenant Abu Zubaydah encouraged him and helped facilitate theoperation. Ressam also said that in 1998 Abu Zubaydah was planning hisown U.S. attack.

Ressam says Bin Laden was aware of the Los Angeles operation.

Although Bin Laden has not succeeded, his attacks against the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in 1998 demonstrate that he preparesoperations years in advance and is not deterred by setbacks. Bin Laden associates surveilled our Embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam as early as 1993, and some members of the Nairobi cell planning the bombings were arrested and deported in 1997.

AI Qaeda members — including same who are U.S. citizens — have resided in and traveled to the U.S. for years, and the group apparently maintains asupport structure that could aid attacks.

Two Al Qaeda members found guiltyin the conspiracy to bomb our embassies in East Africa were U.S. citizens, and a senior EIJ member lived in California in the mid-1990s.

A clandestine sourcesaid in 1998 that a Bin Laden cell in New Yorkwas recruiting Muslim-American youth for attacks.

We havenot been able to corroborate some of the more sensational threat reporting, such as that from a [deleted text] service in 1998 saying that Bin Laden wanted to hijack a U.S. aircraft to gain the release of "Blind Shaykh" 'Umar' Abd aI-Rahman and other U.S.-held extremists.

Nevertheless, FBI information since that time indicates patterns ofsuspicious activity in this country consistent with preparations forhijackings or other types of attacks, including recent surveillance offederal buildings in New York.

The FBI is conducting approximately 70 investigations throughout the U.S. that it considers Bin Laden-related. CIA and the FBI are investigating a call to our embassy in the UAE in May sayingthat a group or Bin Laden supporters was in the U.S. planning attacks with explosives.

We now know what George Bush knew and when he knew it.

Now we need Cynthia McKinney and Sheila Jackson Lee to explain to us how this information and the timing of it would have prevented 9/11.(sarcasm/off)

[cincinnati65]

Let's see how long it takes for some DUmmy to declare that this was OBVIOUSLY falsified to downplay the Bush role in 9/11.

[kellynla]

Further proof that the Clintoon administration had eight years to defeat terrorism and capture OBL and failed on both counts.

One thing that liberals have never learned; when you are in a hole the first thing you should do is quit digging!

[Timeout]

Don't forget:

Dems in Congress HAD THE SAME INFORMATION AT THE SAME TIME AS BUSH

They're lying when they act "shocked, shocked" at this data.

[Vermonter]

One thing that liberals have never learned; when you are in a hole the first thing you should do is quit digging!

Shhh! It's so much fun to watch!

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

It clearly shows what frauds the Dems on the 9/11 Commission are.

No, you miss the point. The Dem's strategy of an incessant stream of unprecedented demands for information is calculated to create through repetition over time the impression in the public's mind that Bush is footdragging and hiding something, regardless of the facts that ultimately come out which will receive far briefer coverage. And that way they can also generate a steady stream of anti-Bush conspiracy theories.

[Big Horn]

You can get a better prediction of the 9/11 attack looking at tea leaves.
