Thanks. This is a very good read, and very scary too.

[Stonewall Jackson]

Some interesting reading material.

[FairOpinion]

Thanks for posting this.

I am glad it finally got the attention of the agents.

My guess is that they got some additional evidence, which is corroborated by Ann's experience.

[FairOpinion]

I know you've been following her stories, and some have been posted on the Threat Matrix thread, but I am glad that this follow up has been posted in the main area for all to see.

I think she is being vindicated, there was a lot more to that incident.

Since then, they have instituted rules that people only use the lavatory in their class of cabin and no loitering in the galley or lavatory area. They emhasize this on every flight and even enforce it sometimes.

If I had been on 327, I would definitely had gotten all the men on the plane to sit those guys down. I would have cut in front of then and told them their lavatory priveledges were suspsended for the rest of the flight. Once they were in violation of what the Flight Attendents told them to do and in violation of FAA regs, it was the citizens' duty to assist.

I think all it takes is one person to say what needs to be said. And do what needs to be done.

Lookie here !

This is very interesting, but I'm a little concerned that Annie Jacobsen might have provided the terrorists some inside info by publishing this article far and wide. Hope that's not the case.

[Enchante]

When oh when oh WHEN will we get serious about our national security??? It's great that DHS appears to be doing a serious investigation of this flight, but we could fill entire rooms with reports and not make ourselves any more secure if the Norman Minetas of the world remain in control of policy.

[Petronski]

But flight 327 was far from a situation involving 13 hapless Syrian musicians and a case of bad behavior.

[cricket]

"They came to discuss the events of Northwest flight 327, the now notorious Detroit-to-Los Angeles plane trip I took last June"

I remember some of the controversy re the number of . . . ahhhh. ..'men' that were on this flight; but not much more. . .

[oceanview]

last time I checked, Mineta works for Bush. Bush could have fired him at any time, yet keeps him on, so that tells me he supports whatever policies the transportation agency has in place.

Can a democratic nation fight a War on Terror and at the same time bend over backward so as not to offend a few visitors' rights?

NO!

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

Thanks for the ping.

[FairOpinion]

To anyone who hasn't read it, I highly recommend reading the interview of actor James Wood by O'Reilly, that Ann was referring to.

The transcript is here:

Transcript: Actor James Woods

This is a partial transcript from The O'Reilly Factor, February 14, 2002

As Ann said, he was told by the FBI not to release any information about his discussion with the FBI.

The fact that the agents interviewing Ann revealed that Mohammed Atta was on the Flight James Wood was on and reported to the FAA about the hijackers, is blockbuster info.

Just think, if the FAA had taken him seriously, 9-11 may have been prevented.

[FairOpinion]

Standing in my kitchen, one of the agents said, "What I can tell you is this: Mohammed Atta was one of the passengers on that flight with James Woods." (Apparently, this information has never been made public.)

Do you have any of the links to the original story on this? I remember reading this about this gal's report on it, here, at the time.
