I never knew the media here in the US had called Johnelle Bryant's story a hoax. I live near JAX, and we all heard her account, which was quite well supported.

Also, she called security to escort him out the second time he came around. (She used the call button under her desk, because he was clearly a nutcase.) She wasn't the only person who saw him.

Gorelick was placed on the 911 commission with the sole purpose of keeping the facts of Atta and her memo not to allow FBI and CIA to share intelligence a secret from the committee.

I agree. Who appointed these people?

That, in a nutshell, is the problem: people like Ms. Bryant are all 'feelings' and no 'thinking'.

Sue Gorelick civilly for gross dereliction of duty for contributory negligence and culpability in 3,000 deaths (& counting), and gross negligence as DoJ's memo author greatly expanding the letter of the law.

I believe that the Democrats in Congress picked her as well as the other Democrat members of the committee.

They all need to stand trial. Bush's biggest error, IMHO, has been that of not holding the Clintonistas responsible for the devastation that they wrought. I know he was trying to establish a "new tone," etc., but even that failed, since the Clintonistas simply took it as a sign of weakness.

Investigate, prosecute, and convict - even BJ himself.

Indictment ties Moussaoui to plot
By Times staff writer
© St. Petersburg Times,
published December 12, 2001

Through implication and circumstance, Tuesday's indictment repeatedly ties Zacarias Moussaoui to the 19 men who killed themselves and thousands of others on Sept. 11. It contains the broadest official picture yet of how the plot came together during a period spanning more than 18 months. Here are some excerpts from the indictment, which is available on the Internet at www.usdoj.gov.

Atta inquires about aerial application of pesticides

At various times in 2000 and 2001 in Florida, Mohammed Atta made inquiries regarding starting a crop dusting company.

Interesting that the press would try to deny that any of these people were known before 9/11. They were certainly known in Florida, although obviously, at the state level, nobody would have known enough to make the connections.

Testimony Before the House Committee on the Judiciary
September 24, 2001

Attorney General John Ashcroft

Yesterday the FBI issued a nationwide alert based on information they received indicating the possibility of attacks using crop-dusting aircraft. The FBI asses the uses of this type of aircraft to distribute chemical or biological weapons of mass destruction as potential threats to Americans. We have no clear indication of the time or place of any such attack.

The FBI has confirmed that Mohammed Atta, one of the suspected hijackers, was acquiring knowledge of crop-dusting aircraft prior to the attacks on September 11th.

"Her claims were ignored in last year's 9/11 commission report on the events leading up to the terrorist attacks. The commission accepted the advice of US immigration authorities that Atta did not arrive until June 2000."

This doesn't preclude the possibility that Atta was in the country under an assumed name.

AFTER THE ATTACK; New Crop-Dusting Restrictions Weighed; Aircraft: Report that terrorists may have visited a company that flies the agricultural planes spurs concerns about chemical and biological weapons.

The Los Angeles Times; Los Angeles, Calif.; Sep 25, 2001;
AARON ZITNER;JOHN-THOR DAHLBURG;

Excerpt

Epling said the loan officer recalled the incident after the FBI asked his bank last week to search its records for any signs of contact with Atta, particularly in connection with crop-dusting.

The FBI also said that Atta had approached an area branch of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in person, for a loan. Epling said his bank shared a building with a branch office of the Agriculture Department.
