3. about that 8/6/01' PDB..it did include warnings of attacks.
I was home on 4/12/04 when the 911 Commission kind of forced Rice to release the PDB publicly. Around 4 PM
on Fox cable news I believe it was, someone from BFEE placed that PDB on camera. It was 2 pages both had
complete pages of text.

On page 2 3rd paragraph this was the text," weeks many many dead, very very big uproar, possibly using hijacked commercial jets as suicide weapons to be crashed into skyscrapers in New York City, Chicago and
Washington DC." that was followed by a 4th paragraph with signatures at the bottom.

While page 1 of that PDB revealed Osama was an evil guy who blew up embassies and the US.Cole clearly the
historical information Rice spoke of it was page 2 that had damaging info. Weeks, many many dead.

Think about this. When bush heard about the rumors that arabs wanted to learn how to fly commercial jets that
courtesy of the Phoenix Flight Memo's he ordered an update we now know as the "infamous PDB". When that
document was delivered bush almost killed the messenger, "alright you covered your ass" now take a hike. No need there to be hostile if all the PDB contained was that historical bullshit.

Now we have new Tenet-Rice revelations of July 12, 2001. Then the "threat assessment" for John Ashcroft on July 21, 2001 warning him not to fly commercial jets.

I often think about having not taped it that day more so now that if I did tape it I'd be scared to death
because a copy of that would be dangerous to my health. Still, I know what I saw the day the PDB was released.

I had expected to see that document on other cable news shows later and when it did air it was sanitized.

Thanks again I enjoyed your thread..
