The codes change daily,and are "unbeeakable" because of this. Even if you had access to a Cray "super computer",by the time you broke the codes,it is two days later and they aren't being used anymore.
Nope,the codes weren't "broken",they were betrayed by traitors within our gooberment.
There is only two things it could have been. Either a suitcase or backpack nuke,or a chemical/bio warfare agent bomb set to go off in DC. THAT is why Bush went to Nebraska,and why Cheney was physically picked up and taken to the secure underground room. Not to mention why the helicopters were flying political and military leaders out of DC.
MY best guess is a NEST team found and disarmed whatever it was,and as soon as they were reasonably sure there were no other devices,Bush was ALLOWED to fly back to DC. Make no mistake about this,his security people were the ones in charge of his movements that day,not him.
The thing is it is likely we will never find out. No way in hell the gooberment is willing to let the denizens of DC find out there was a bomb there.
If nothing else, they've come out looking like fools.
Help me here. If you had been scheduled to fly on Tuesday September 11th, at say 3 p.m., would you still have wanted to make your flight after what had just happened in NYC and DC? Afterall, when were the nation's airports shut down? Were people who had tickets for flights on September 11th, not allowed to use those same tickets when flights resumed on September 13th?
In fact,there is a toll-free number you can call in DC to get the presidents schedule for up to 30 days in advance. It's never been secret.
Think people...if Saddam could not get the father, what is the next best thing?
I do not know what type of a speech giver he is, but if what I saw Thursday evening is any indicator, how was he ever elected. Can he not take the time to memorize?
Also, what exactly is the connection between his wife and the FAA? She is a lobbyist? For the airline industry? Could chickens come home to roost on her doorstep if lax security takes the front seat when the responsibility portion is handed out?
I THINK the plan MAY have been to detonate the nuke when AF-1 was known to be landing at Andrews,but detonating it anyway if something were to happen to keep it from showing up. Chances are the early public reports about Bush flying back to DC were done to buy time.
>> They probably had another option. <<
Yup,the one mentioned above is the most likely in MY opinion,and the crashes into the Pentagram and possibly the capital were diversions.
>>While they could have gotten their hands on a nuke, and probably will soon, odds are they don't have it yet.<<
If they didn't do this last week,they WILL do it sometime in the future. It is inevitable.The only way we can stop it is to quietly make it know to every country in the world that has nukes that if ANY of their nukes are used by a third party group to attack the US,we will launch a all-out nuke attack on their countries. And that's only a "maybe"
>>Does the Taliban have another means of taking down an airplane?
2. Of course they do... Stinger missiles.<<
I don't think so. I have read that the Stingers we gave to them had a specially-treated propelleant that gave it a short shelf-life. In other words,any Stingers they have now won't fire.
Having said that,it is only splitting hairs. They DO have Soviet shoulder-fired SAMS that they captured during that war,and the SAMS WILL fire.
>>I know I'm stating the obvious here, but we can't ignore the obvious while quite reasonably considering the nightmare scenario of a suitcase nuke.<<
IMHO,we can't afford to ignore any reasonable possibility. The fact that Bush went to Nebraska is what convinces me it was a nuke or bio weapon in DC. Otherwise,he could have flown to any number of other secure US air bases.
These guys belong to the same group that got caught in the first bombing of the Twin Towers because one of them went to the car rental company they had rented the van from and asked for a refund, or something to that effect.
That's not too smart.
Probably,but probably not on the 11th of Sept. I'm sure all the security services were concerned about at that time was protecting their "principals",and getting them the hell out of DC or in bomb bunker like Cheney was placed in. He's probably been fully briefed by now,though. Notice how some of the Dims criticised Bush as being a coward the first day,but have shut the hell up since then? No doubt Gephardt and Daschle have gotten to them and ordered them to shut up.
>>I do not know what type of a speech giver he is, but if what I saw Thursday evening is any indicator, how was he ever elected. Can he not take the time to memorize?<<
Small state,the important people there are all Dims,and he gives them all the gooberment pork he can give them. As long as he does this,they don't give a damn what else he does.
>>Also, what exactly is the connection between his wife and the FAA? She is a lobbyist? For the airline industry?<<
I thought she actually worked for the FAA as a upper-level bureaucrat? Could easily be wrong,though.
>>Could chickens come home to roost on her doorstep if lax security takes the front seat when the responsibility portion is handed out?<<
Not a chance. The big dogs NEVER get the blame,only the mid-level dogs.
One doesn't have to be too smart to be a terrorist, does he?
This Alamoudi is related to the Alamoudi of USS Cole and YEMINVEST fame,all in the archives here under "USS COLE".
I have no doubt that there are other Islam terrorists working in various federal agencies!
I think it has more to do with the fast that these two bases are the head bases where we keep our bombers. Make no mistake, we'll be bombing them very soon.
My guess is that (due to their very nature) these bases have underground bomb shelters that the President would've used in the event of a bombing run on the US.
Yeah, NYC was REAL safe that day!
And your post #50 requires a little actual evidence, let alone proof, of "American Black" complicity in the events of 9/11. I'm very disappointed that no other freepers have called you on this.
Trust me, I'm no supporter of the Bubboids, or of Farrakan, Sharpton, et al., but you need to get a grip, or come up with more proof.
