Is anybody else just a little bit at the news about the top-secret CIA document talking about the possibility of hi-jackings by Al Qaeda members? http://www.msnbc.com/news/752980.asp?pne=msn

Although Mrs. Condoleeza says the threats were too general I don't know about all that. There should have been some sort of warning made to the general public. I also think more serious measures to guard against these hijackers should have been taken. I mean Bush and the CIA knew that bin Laden and his al Qaeda terrorists were/are crazy enough to pull anything they could think of to harm Americans. They also knew that mass destruction was their M.O. I think maybe somebody in the White House, the CIA or the FBI could have put together the clues. Maybe they could have had stronger watches for attempted terrorists instead of having them train to fly in America.

Reports are saying that some families of those on the hijacked airplanes are about the findings. I sense some serious lawsuit attempts coming on. What opinions does everybody have about these new developments?

Don't expect any lawsuits, a little concept called "governmental immunity" will prevent that!!

I suspect this isn't the last we are going to learn about how much "advance notice" the government had regarding this terrorist plot.
