I read about this for the first time last year.

Thought some others would be interested.

This is simply my story........could it have been a .......’dry run’?

One week before 9/11, I flew from Los Angeles to Chicago
Seated next to me and directly across the aisle were four Middle East men.....the one next to me in his 20’s.....very young......all dressed nicely in civilian clothes.......

The number and proximity seemed a bit odd, but I had no history (yet) to feel ‘spooked’.......but in retrospect, after trying to engage the young man in chit chat and getting dark looks from the others......I scrunched down in my seat and endured the over 4 hour trip uncomfortably.

A week later......and for evermore......I always wondered.

I actually flew back to LA 3 days before 9/11

Was there ever any speculation that Los Angeles was on their list?

Conspiracy ping!

I remember hearing about a plane “or two” where box cutters and such were found onboard after the passengers disembarked.
Never heard it confirmed though, at least not back then.

There were always stories about the Capitol and the White House being targets. The plane that crashed in Pennsylvania was supposed to be headed for one of them. This one may have been targeting the other.

From the other side of the barricade the cabin crew relayed their concern about four young Arab men in first-class who became agitated when the take-off was cancelled, and fled from the plane when it returned to the terminal. Box cutters and Al Qaeda documents were later found in their luggage. Timmons, the pilot, and the rest of the crew were repeatedly questioned by the FBI, though the findings were never shared. The pilot concluded that Flight 23 would have been the next plane hijacked by terrorists if the airport shutdown order had been delayed. “The FBI asks questions,” General Timmons is quoted as saying, “They don’t tell you things.”

The FBI 'tells things' that hurts Republicans and helps Democrats. They must have made that call that the truth would NOT help democrats.
