"We met with people from the World Trade Center who told us that they thought of everything
except for an airplane crash," says Shlomo Dror, a security specialist who works
with American clients.
"I told them that we began thinking in 1983 about the possibility a plane could be
hijacked and crashed into the Shalom Tower [in Tel Aviv]."
Rick Rescorla, a security chief for Morgan Stanley at the WTC, had it figured out.
That's why he got the thousands of Morgan Stanley personnel (except for himself
and about 7 other employees) out of his WTC tower while the intercom was telling occupants
of the building that everything was "under control".
After the first strike, he know it was just what he'd predicted...a terrorist attack
from the air.
Too, too bad Rescorla didn't make it out.
He would have made a Congressional witness that even surpasses Oliver North...
I'd love to have seen the reknowned Vietnam vet, holder of a law degree, former
criminology professor, Morgan-Stanley security officer, and protstate cancer survivor
dismantle Daschle, Leahy, Lieberman, Rodham-Clinton, Carnahan, Gephardt, McKinney,
and the other members of The Party Of Fools on national television...
(Heck, he'd probably have reformed the FBI and CIA by now if he'd survived!)
