I just noticed this...I thought there wasn't any explosives...
Quote:
"For example, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed described the design of planned attacks of buildings inside the U.S. and how operatives were directed to carry them out. That is valuable information for those of us who have the responsibility to protect the American people. He told us the operatives had been instructed to ensure that the explosives went off at a high -- a point that was high enough to prevent people trapped above from escaping."

Bush can`t have been talking about the World Trade Center bombing in 1993, because those bombs were placed in the garage.

According to the 9/11 Commission Report KSM was "the principal architect of the 9/11 attacks."

3. Co-reference?
The 'planned attacks of buildings' are necessarily the same as either the 9/11 attacks or the '93 WTC attack?

I don't see the logical necessity for that assumption, and think it's a false choice. I can easily imagine that both the 9/11 attacks and separate attacks on buildings were planned.

The other option is to remember that this is *-speech and all lexical items are used only more-or-less as normal English-speaking Americans would use them. "Explosives" could possibly refer to aviation fuel.

Rule out those two possibilities, and you might have a case.

Your evidence is an interpretation that rests primarily on your assumptions, but is intended to prove the assumptions. That's a sorry kind of proof.

5. I've heard experts say that aviation fuel couldn't have brought
the towers down and I've heard experts say it could. Its all just hearsay IMO. I tend to beleive the more sinister scenario when it comes to our government. Just conditioning I guess.

6. Correct.
If one reads "Imperial Hubris" (pages 91-100) and/or "Through Our Enemies' Eyes" ( pages 150-154 and 207-230), one finds that the options are not limited to but two possibilities; rather, there are hundreds.
