    Sort of how George W had intel that Bin Laden was planning on flying planes into buildings months before 9/11. Lucky for George, he got his war and a 2nd term. Everybody else suffered.

      So did you see the email inviting Ghislane Maxwell on the 9/11 shadow commission? It has renewed intrest in the Pentagon, WTC-7 and all the money that went missing that day.

        But daddy didn’t get a second term after middle-eastern terrorists attacked the world trade center under his watch.

      There were flaws in US intelligence sharing prior to 9/11, but those alone do not explain the monumental intelligence failure of not stopping the attacks. They had a fuckload of tips and ‘traditional’ shit that involved people practically screaming and banging pots together and yelling ‘dude! They’re planning to fly planes into the towers! These are their names and addresses! Arrest them!’ But nothing happened.
