My Navy nephew's ship was almost constantly on high alert during summer prior to 911. We were expecting to get hit abroad. Terror issue was serious in the military.

Notice how that one article has usama promising a "surprise" in 2 weeks. More like 2+ months.

Legally boarded Muslim passengers with legal razor blades utilized within a device that held the razor blade away from the hand of the razor blade wielder weren't the concern because normal people don't imagine the scenario.

Al Qaeda employs "behavioral scientists" just as the Demonicrats do and came to the strategic realization that it would work based on anticipating hijacked passengers actions to the plan. That expected action was that everyone would just sit back and appease the hijackers.

I remember this alert distinctly 3 days prior to 9/11. I heard it on KFWB...and it was the first thing I thought of when I first saw the WTC.
