Bush's reaction on 9/11
Advertisements [?]
This is what I saw in his facial expressions and mannerisms. It was as if he knew about the plan all along but didn't think the perpetrators(Cheney, Rumsfeld, PNACers et al) were going to go through with it. The realization that they had gone through with it had Bush both elated and scared shitless at the same time. That is what I saw in his eyes, his actions, he kept reading "My Pet Goat", he has trying convey a sense that all was normal while knowing that his comrades had pulled this thing off. Only thing is that it is not normal to continue to read to children when the country is "under attack" from "unknown assailants", that is unless you have foreknowledge. A President who knew nothing of this plot would have stood up immediately and split for Air Force One. Another thing about his and the administrations reaction which speaks volumes but has not been addressed. Bush could have made a huge statement if he had returned to the Whitehouse, his approval ratings would have been even higher than they were. Instead he hide out at Ouffutt AFB in Nebraska. Why? I seriously think they had no idea what impact this attack might have on the public and the stock market. I think they were predicting a full on economic meltdown. I think they predicted rioting and looting in the streets of New York as a result of this, which would then spread to the rest of the country. They wanted martial law. Did JEB actually declare martial law in Florida 4 days before 9/11. Why? I think they were predicting full on collapse of society. When people in New York didn't flip out and actually helped one another and were humane and civil, this thwarted their plan.
