Here's What Bush Knew~Or didn't consider worth knowing by Susan DeSantis

May 23, 2002



So let me get this straight.

1. The Bush administration takes office and gives the Taliban $43 million while it's planning to attack them and take over for a planned pipeline.

2. While bin Laden is attacking our Embassies and military installations around the world, his family is contracting to repair the damage and has deep connections to Bush's father.

3. While Bush is telling California they made their own bed and won't talk to state officials, he's talking to Enron in secret meetings, and is planning our energy policy with Cheney.

4. In the meantime Israel (Israeli security issued urgent warning to CIA of large-scale terror attacks,http://www.dailytelegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=%2
Fnews%2F2001%2F09%2F16%2Fwcia16.xml
), Germany (Echelon Gave Authorities Warning Of Attacks (http://www.newsbytes.com/news/01/170072.html), Russia (The Reconnaissance of Russia Prevented/Warned TSCRcU O TERAKTAKH And It Forecasts the New*, http://izvestia.ru/rubr.cgi?id=5542&idr=523%20), France, Italy (Italy Tells of Threat at Genoa Summit, http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-092701genoa.story), and Egypt (Egypt Leader Says He Warned America, http://globalresearch.ca/articles/LEB112A.html) are all sending warnings to Bush of an imminent and major attack that is reported in the newspapers, but didn't seem to be noticed by Bush or the administration.

5. In July a member of the Intelligence Committee, Diane Feinstein, and her staff are sending urgent warnings to Cheney, and she was talking to the networks. (Statement By U.S. Senator Feinstein - On Concerns Raised About Possible Terrorist Attacks on Our Nation http://www.senate.gov/~feinstein/Releases02/attacks.htm)

6. Bush gets a briefing headed bin Laden determined to strike in US
but thinks it means he'll just hijack airplanes, and I assume hold the people on the plane hostage until we release the Sheik. (Aug. Memo Focused On Attacks in U.S., http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35744-2002May17.html)

7. The administration seemed to have knowledge of the 150 page Hart-Rudman report that was supported top Republican member of Congress and by Rumsfeld In fact Senator Hart was trying to push the White House to move on it 5 days before the attack to Condalezza Rice who said she would pass on his concerns. (What We Knew: Warning Given...story Missed; How a Report on Terrorism Flew Under the Radar, http://www.cjr.org/year/01/6/evans.asp)

8. No one had envisioned planes as missiles despite the 1999 Library of Congress Report (
The Sociology And Psychology Of Terrorism, http://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/Sociology-Psychology%20of%20Terrorism.htm), the 1999 United Sates Commission on National Security Report, the Filipino Police warning in 1995, the Youssaf trial, Gore's 1997 Report on Terrorism (White House Commission on Aviation Safety and Security, February 12, 1997, http://www.fas.org/irp/threat/212fin~1.html), the Genoa Summit warning, a plane that flew into the White House in 1994, and the Pentagon MASCAL simulation of plane crashes in December 2000 (Contingency planning Pentagon MASCAL exercise simulates scenarios in preparing for emergencies, http://www.mdw.army.mil/news/Contingency_Planning.html)

9. Also in light of all the above the FBI didn't inform anyone of two separate warnings from field agents in Phoenix and Minnesota. (Unheeded Warnings, http://www.msnbc.com/news/751100.asp)

10. The FBI picked up Moussaoui, but for some reason they just happened to be denied a warrant to go through his belongings.

11. The FAA knew about Moussaoui and didn't bother to warn airlines. (FAA knew of Moussaoui arrest, http://www.msnbc.com/news/751100.asp)

12. If Bush had any idea that planes would have been used as missiles he would have put out an alert and moved heaven and earth to stop it. (Which of course means that alerting anyone for something as silly as taking hostages wouldn't be necessary).

13. Yet they were on high alert until a week or two before 9/11. Ashcroft was instructed not to fly commercial planes. (Ashcroft Flying High, http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2001/07/26/national/main303601.shtml)

14. They were on alert from June and happened to stand down a week or two before 9/11, yet four hijacked planes were off course and in the air for an hour before anyone had a clue.

15. At the same time, for some as yet unexplained reason, they happened to be planning an attack to "wipe al Qaida off the face of the earth," which was all wrapped up and ready for the pen two days before 9/11. (U.S. planned for attack on al-Qaida, http://www.msnbc.com/news/753359.asp)

16. Bush ignores all reports and decides to appoint Cheney to head it's own committee on terrorism to be headed by VP Dick Cheney. Cheney didn't have any meetings on terrorism during the eight months and suddenly a week before 9/11 Bush appoints someone else to head terrorism.

17. And in the midst of 9/11 someone happens to be running around with the US Military's anthrax sending it off in envelopes to democratic leaders. (George Monbiot: Riddle of the spores, http://www.guardian.co.uk/anthrax/story/0,1520,719367,00.html)

18. US agents are told to back off bin Laden. (US agents told: Back off bin Ladens, http://old.smh.com.au/news/0111/07/world/world100.html)

19. Bush personally asked Daschle not to probe into 9/11, and Cheney asked several times not to look to deeply. (Bush asks Daschle to limit Sept. 11 probes, http://www.cnn.com/2002/ALLPOLITICS/01/29/inv.terror.probe/)

Surely we shouldn't investigate the Bush administration! How dare anyone unpatriotically question an administration that is above reproach! Yes, by all means let us investigate Clinton. What the hell was he doing all those years while the Republicans and media was screaming "Wag the Dog"? ..... dripping with sarcasm.....

Answers

Cherri, could you help us out here and provide some background on the author of this piece; Susan DeSantis?

You might recall the name Rudi Dekkers, owner of Huffman Aviation in Florida. This is the flight school where Mohamed Atta and another of the 9/11 terrorist highjackers took lessons. Is it just a coincidence that Dekkers assistant at that time was a woman named Susan DeSantis?

You have a demonstrated talent for scrounging up anti-Bush articles from the strangest of places so it is a natural reaction to question your sources of so-called information.

Or perhaps the pieces are falling into place. Too many unanswered questions are starting to be answered. Too many answers are causing still more questions.

-- Cherri (whatever@who.cares), May 25, 2002.

Cherri, we all understand your personal dilemma here. You should never play with puzzles until your mental health is in order. The questions and answers just swirl before your eyes and confusion and despair are allowed to control your every thought.

Again, please tell us about your latest source of delusional conjecture; Susan DeSantis.

"You have a demonstrated talent for scrounging up anti-Bush articles from the strangest of places so it is a natural reaction to question your sources of so-called information. "

And morons like you believe only what you hear from mainstream media. Even a deaf and dumb dipshit like you should be able to see that the secretive "shadow government" of the Dumbya administration has taken total control over any information about what they do. They conceal almost all information unless forced to produce it, and when they do produce it they distort it to suit their corrupt agenda, which is exactly what morons like you hear from mainstream media. Only a blind, deaf, and dumb fool like yourself would believe the crap they are feeding you without questioning it.

And what's more, the fucking earth is flat you stupid pug assholes. Just look out the window.

-- (bwaahahaha@send.repug.stucker), May 26, 2002.


What are you afraid of? Can't follow the sites given?

Have to kill the messenger, doing every thing you can to pretend that all of the information coming out is some calculated effort dirty the man and his administration that is as clean as the driven snow?

Afraid to open your eyes? Even those who stood by him and his from the get go are deserting him in droves.

Hell, Ashcraft put terrorism on the back burner after drug raids in america and porn on the internet. Ashcraft is the one who turned down the FBI's request for a search warrant on Moussaoui. Terrorism was his last priority after all of the changes he wanted to make for Americans

Blah, blah, blah!!! Still waiting for you to give us some background on Susan DeSantis.

“Another post by me that will irritate.”

You normally provide a link to your cut and pastes so where did this bullshit originate?
