They Could Have Stopped It

Introduction

The Clinton and Bush administrations repeatedly ignored intelligence warnings of Al Qaeda in the 1990s that could have prevented the September 11th attacks, even after the bombings of American embassies in East Africa in 1998 and the attack on the USS Cole in 2000. Furthermore, plans to kill or capture Osama bin Laden were quashed within the CIA. Future Russiagate hoaxer John Brennan, then the CIA station chief for Riyadh, mysteriously refused to share detailed information about Bin Laden with Alec Station, the unit responsible for monitoring Al Qaeda. If, in the lead-up to 9/11, NORAD and the National Reconnaissance Office suspected that a hijacked airliner could be used in a terror attack, then how could the 9/11 Commission conclude the attack was simply a “failure of imagination?”  Part three of our series, The 9/11 Files: They Could Have Stopped It, outlines it all.
