response plans.” That's very impressive for him to have activated the emergency response
without knowing about the attacks. He lied about one or the other and possibly both!
Acting CJCS, General Richard Meyers heard about the first plane hitting the WTC just
before he went into a meeting. He said he thought it was a small plane. He remained in the
meeting approximately 50 minutes and emerged just before the third plane hit the Pentagon.
Supposedly no one made the acting CJCS aware that a second plane had hit the WTC and that
America was under attack.
Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense, was also in a meeting on the morning of 9/11.
His meeting was in his private dining room in the Pentagon with Deputy Defense Secretary Paul
Wolfowitz, and Representative Christopher Cox. Rumsfeld describes how he heard about the
attack: “We were having a meeting in my office. Someone said a plane had hit the World Trade
Center. Then we turned on the television and we started seeing the shots of the second plane
hitting, and this is the way I remember it. It’s a little fuzzy.... There didn’t seem to be much to do
about it immediately and we went on with whatever the meeting was.” He later became involved
in a “high level conference call” some 26-minutes after the second plane hit the WTC and only
9-minutes before the Pentagon was hit according to the 9-11 Commission.

President Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, General Shelton and General Winfield should never
have scheduled any routine or unimportant activities when so many credible warnings had been
received of a terrorist attack, which many specifically named as September 11th. In addition to
the warnings there was substantiating evidence from the FBI. Once the events of 9/11 began to
unfold, meetings should have been canceled.
Investigative reporter Jared Israel presented his opinion of what happened in the New
York Press. After reviewing all the facts regarding the lack of response he concluded there was a
“sabotage of routine protective systems controlled by strict hierarchies…” He maintains this
could “…never have been contemplated let alone attempted absent the involvement of the
supreme U.S. military command.” He believes that there is probable cause for charging the
following public officials with “treason for the complicity in the murders of thousands whom
they were sworn to protect”: President George Bush, Secretary of State Donald Rumsfeld and
General Meyers, acting Head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on September 11th.

No Intercepts
The FAA first determined the hijacking of flight 11 to be likely at 8:20 AM. The
hijacking of flights 175 and 77 were determined at approximately 8:46 and 8:56. Flight 11 hit the
WTC at 8:46 and flight 77 hit the Pentagon at 9:38. One hour and 18 minutes elapsed between
the FAA's discovery of the first hijacking and when the Pentagon was hit. During all this time
were any interceptors scrambled or launched?
Initial reports from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, NORAD and the White House all agreed
that fighter jets were not scrambled till after the Pentagon was hit. Air Force General Richard B.
Meyers, acting Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reported to the Senate Armed Services
Committee on September 13th
that fighter jets were scrambled only after the Pentagon was hit.
Major Mike Snyder of the Marine Corps, a spokesman for NORAD, confirmed this.
Snyder’s comments were reported on by the Boston Globe on September 15th, the Globe
