Egyptian intelligence warned American officials about a week before Sept. 11 that Osama bin Laden's network was in the advance stages of executing a significant operation against an American target, it will be reported on Tuesday (in the NY TIMES)... MORE... A senior U.S. intelligence official denied the warning was received...

Couldn't agree with you more. The Arabs want to see Israel destroyed and so out comes this piece of trash to try and split off conservatives but it is not working -- the real base recognizes what is going on. The Arabs don't like having someone in office that is going after the terrorists! And is a friend of Israel!

Per the article, there were only days to find out further information. Here's Mubaraks info from the article:The Egyptian president said his intelligence chiefs believed, based on the agent's information, that "something is going to happen in the U.S." or "to the United States, maybe inside the U.S., maybe in an airplane, maybe in embassies" outside the United States. "We couldn't know, we tried to know where, but this information" never reached them.
In your perfect 20 20 hindsight, of course you can tell from this info exactly what flights to find the terrorists on....lol. But wait, you might need to look for a bomb at the embassy. Geesh.
To: Digger
I'm sure if GW was really ready to change things he had no idea of where to begin. And little Gore dragging out the election didn't help either.
To: DrLiberty
Are all your FACTS in your post #104 as correct as your FACT about Woods alerting the FBI prior to 9/11?
You're busted...give it up.
To: rintense
Oh yeah I forgot! George Bush says "Islam means peace".
To: Howlin
"And let me tell you this: I believe what you're saying about the Bush family is a total crock and borders on slander." And you know so much about the Bush family, don't you?
I'm guessing by personal experience?
Bush family: Skull and Bones, Trilateral Commission, Council on Foreign Relations, United Nations, Central Intelligence Agency, David Rockefeller, Bin Laden family, Saddam Hussein, Carlyle Group, Voodoo Economics, European Royalty, Royal Family (England)...
Oh yes, their patriotism and devotion to country is beyond question.
To: Iwentsouth
I think ya should've stayed there, too....Har! Sorry, I could NOT resist.
To: Iwentsouth
Well, I happen to have some very good friends who are from Pakistan and are Islamic. They are very peaceful people and support the country that let them excel in their personal and professional lives. So yes, islam DOES mean peace for some. It isn't any different then the left painting all Christians as racist misogynists. And we certainly know that not all Christians are like that.
To: DrLiberty
And you know so much about the Bush family, don't you? I know just as much about them as you do, I can tell them that.
Skull and Bones? If that's such a secret society, why on EARTH is it listed right on George W. Bush's college transcripts?
To you I have one thing to say: BOOGA BOOGA.

This would be my vote "deliberately suppressed emergency warnings like the one from Mubarak" -
To: A Navy Vet
Nice catch.
And add the one it posted about NO PLANES being scrambled from Langley.

It's the 80-20 rule in reverse. 20% are peaceful, the remaining 80% want to hack the heads off reporters.

"To you I have one thing to say: BOOGA BOOGA."
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa............
To: Enlightiator
If they could find a thread of information with specifics somewhere...they might try to tie it in with Egyptian RICO charged Short Trader Elgindy. My tin foil theory is that Elgindy may have learned something from his paid off Fed buddies....
To: DrLiberty
From NYT article:
Mr. Mubarak said his intelligence officials had no indication what the target would be and had no idea of the magnitude of the coming attack. "We didn't know that such a thing could take place," he said, referring to the Sept. 11 attacks. "We thought it was an embassy, an airplane, something, the usual thing."
Did you even bother to click on Drudge's NYT link and actually read the complete article?
Or did you simply jump real fast at the chance to take a cheapshot at the President?
No matter what motivated you to post a thread like this--with your invidious opening comment--it sure looks like you bit hard on a big chunk of Drudge's garbage-bait--the kind that Matt loves to troll out there whenever he gets a chance to slam Bush.
BTW, SamAdams76 and many other Freepers are still waiting for your answer to his question in #25.

Well I think that hold true for many religious et. all groups.
To: rintense
Islam means submission.
Shalom means peace.
This is about Islamic terrorism not Christians.
So Islam does not mean Peace it means submission
To: henbane
henbane... hehehehe. I like your name.
