DoD staffer's notes from 9/11 obtained under FOIA

[..]DoD staffer Steven Cambone's notes from meetings with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on the afternoon of September 11, 2001. Cambone's notes were cited heavily in the 9/11 Commission Report's reconstruction of the day's events.
..
The released notes document Donald Rumsfeld's 2:40 PM instructions to General Myers to find the "[b]est info fast . . . judge whether good enough [to] hit S.H. [Saddam Hussein] at same time - not only UBL [Usama Bin Laden]"

If the only constant in public examination of issues at hand is that the guy who disagrees with you is an idiot, unworthy even to finish a sentence and deserving only of being patrionized, could that not be defined as fundementally anti-democratic? And doesnt it imply how simple and easy all of our issues must be since we dont analyze them and we dont ruminate over them. It mustn't be so difficult, you know like the towers falling or how we take care of one other during katrina, or not.

The Shot Heard Round the World - MSNBC.com
(thanks Gold!)

Around 9:35 on the morning of 9/11, Cheney was lifted off his feet by the Secret Service and hustled into the White House bunker. Cheney testified to the 9/11 Commission that he spoke with President Bush before giving an order to shoot down a hijacked civilian airliner that appeared headed toward Washington. (The plane was United Flight 93, which crashed in a Pennsylvania field after a brave revolt by the passengers.) But a source close to the commission, who declined to be identified revealing sensitive information, says that none of the staffers who worked on this aspect of the investigation believed Cheney's version of events.

An Open Letter to Eliot Spitzer -- re. Appearance of Cover-up re. 9/11 - 911citizenswatch.org
(thanks bb!)

What business of yours is it to stand in the way of a Congressional effort led by the Armed Services Committee to learn the truth about why it was a military operation targeting Al-Qaeda and ID future hijackers (Able Danger) was killed by as yet identified DoD officials?

What right do you have to prevent Congressional oversight and an attempt to learn why it was the 9/11 Commission staff, including your employee Dietrich Snell, failed to brief the 9/11 Commissioners about a program a Navy Commander told Snell had ID Atta over a year before 9/11?

In 2004 and 2005, following a formal complaint filing with your office and your chief investigator William Casey, you effectively ignored leading 9/11 family members, 9/11 survivors and first responders who had signed on to the complaint requesting you investigate any number of areas where the Commission fell short. (see full complaint and appendices at http://www.justicefor911.org) And you promised me, their spokesperson at the time, in person at the your opening fund-raiser luncheon that you would meet with the complainants which included Bill Doyle. You broke your promise despite persistent follow-ups.

I believe you have a lot of explaining to do. I intend to talk extensively with Bill Doyle and other leading family members about your latest attempt to stand in the way of getting at the truth about what happened on 9/11.

I believe they are owed an explanation as to why you took no action or even a courtesy of a response following the filing of our complaint with your office (see http://www.justicefor911.org) . I believe all Americans are now owed an explanation as to why you would stand in the way of Congress who had some simple questions for your Deputy, Dietrich Snell. Given your previous responses and what appears to be your covering for Dieter Snell would I be foolish to expect the courtesy of a response?

Majority Report, Air America! - hicksforgovernor.com
Sander Hicks was on Air America last Friday night on the Majority Report. Hicks is running for governor of New York, and is an advocate for a new 9/11 investigation. You can find the Air America interview via the link above, and you can find his statements on 9/11 here.

Air America's late night

Air America's late night host, Mike Malloy, states on the air that 911 was orchestrated by the "Bush Crime Family" when asked by listeners calling in.

On another note, I don't think Stephen Jones is a "honey pot", he's a very religous man of science who resonates with the more positive aspects of christianity and believes in the laws of the universe.

On 2/13 Webster G Tarpley spent 3 terrific hours with Jeff Rense. I´ve uploaded all 3 hours (more like 40 mins ea since they´re commercial free) to rapidshare.de. Each are about 17MB mp3 files. Tarpley talks about oil/dollar politics, TPTB orchestrating the Mohommad cartoon flap, the Russians making noises about 911 truth, among a million other things. Hour 3 is prolly the richest, Left Gatekeepers discussed and more.

Once at the rapidshare pages, scroll to the Premium vs Free table, click the button at the bottom of the Free column. Page changes, scroll down again, you´ll see a clock counting down 30 seconds or so. Then you have to enter one of those funky symbol-images in the field, and then you can begin the download.

Jones knows the origin of the photo however, he linked to my blog very quickly after I made the entry. In fact, so did Greg. So I may make an entry in my blog that says I don't mind Greggy using the photo, (God knows I use photos without clearance), but I don't agree with his Jones analysis.

I honestly don't know what Greg's problem is.

Eh, is my mind going or wasn't Szymanski one of the first to laud Jones to high heaven?

My guess would be that Szymanski is pissed with Jones for 'defecting' to ST911, and leaving him and his insane 'Luciferian' nonsense behind. Why do these people have to bring up this populist religious nonsense? I mean so what if someone worships Satan? It's up to them, its not like its real or anything. What's the difference between Satanist-bashing and Jew, Christian or Muslim-bashing?

Partridge-

It appears that old Greg Szymanski has joined the likes of Tom Flocco. Their job is to blur the line between fantasy and fact. It's done the same way the grocery store tabloids do it. You report both factual and fictional stories so the reader never knows fact from fantasy. The purpose is to develop a mindless cult readership which is a form of distraction. I had a personal experience with Tom that confirmed his motives were a bit askew. He had a problem with the fact that I collected and disseminated the following data.

The Discovery Channel documentary, 'The Flight That
Fought Back', produced by London-based Brook Lapping
Productions,is based on research evidence including
the 9/11 Commission Report and voice recordings left
by passengers and crew members of United flight 93,
including the famous "Let's roll" call to action, from
passenger Todd Beamer. There is only one problem: Todd
Beamer does not exist.

Do a Social Security Death Index search for Todd
Beamer at :

You get one record with the date of birth as SEPTEMBER
ELEVENTH, 1968 and date of death as 6/10/97.

Of the passengers and crew of Flight 11, 77, 175 & 93,
only 22%, 22%, 28%, 13% respectively are in the Social
Security Death Index.

Plane Lands In Cleveland; Bomb Feared Aboard
Reported by: 9News Staff
Web produced by: Liz Foreman
9/11/01 11:43:57 AM

"A Boeing 767 out of Boston made an emergency landing
Tuesday at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport due
to concerns that it may have a bomb aboard, said Mayor
Michael R. White.

White said the plane had been moved to a secure area
of the airport, and was evacuated.

United identified the plane as Flight 93. The airline
[didn't] say how many people were aboard the flight.
United said it was also "deeply concerned" about
another flight, Flight 175, a Boeing 767, which was
bound from Boston to Los Angeles.

On behalf of the airline CEO James Goodwin said: "The
thoughts of everyone at United are with the passengers
and crew of these flights. Our prayers are also with
everyone on the ground who may have been involved.
"United is working with all the relevant authorities,
including the FBI, to obtain further information on
these flights," he said." -WCPO-TV (09/11/01)

And none of the callerÂ’s families applied to the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001. Maybe the "callers" should not have wasted airtime on their "family".

emergency medical technician and a volunteer with
autistic children. Why wasn't Wonder Woman using her
skills to help stop those mean nasty Arabs?

Gronlund, called her sister, telling her THE
COMBINATION TO HER SAFE DEPOSIT BOX and how much she
loved her." page 206 of "Let's Roll: Ordinary People,
Extraordinary Courage" by Lisa Beamer

Another book quotes Linda's call to her sister as, "I
want to let you know how much I love you; please tell
Mom and Dad", Linda said. "I don't know if I'll be
able to tell you again IN PERSON how much I love you.
I hope I will. I'M REALLY GOING TO MISS YOU." page 161
of "Among the Heroes: United Flight 93 and the
Passengers and Crew Who Fought Back" by Jere Longman.
