7. Well, he lied to get us into war with Iraq.
Thousands of Iraqi's died and 200 Amnericans so far. Why is it so hard to believe that they wouldn't capitalize on "insider" information regarding an attack?...particularly in light of the Taliban pipeline discussions and the PNAC declaration that American public opinion would need a "Pearl Harbor" type event to provide the catalyst to embark on their fanciful dreams of a new American imperialism?

I'm not saying they necessarily knew the final outcome of 9/11 would play out the way it did, but I have no doubts that a made-for-TV hi-jacking event would have been allowed to occur to get their PNAC plan underway. I think even the JCS/AF bought into it.....generals telling the American people that fighters reacted "like scalded apes" when they were actual flying at 1/4 top speed based on their actual time to target tells me they were in on the LIHOP plan.
