What does it mean??
A paragraph from the NYTimes article posted elsewhere:
"Officials now agree that on July 10, 2001, Mr. Tenet and his counterterrorism deputy, J. Cofer Black, were so alarmed about an impending Al Qaeda attack that they demanded an emergency meeting at the White House with Ms. Rice and her National Security Council staff."

"were so alarmed"?

"demanded an emergency meeting"?

"impending Al Qaeda attack"?

"meeting with Rice and NSC staff"?

And we are supposed to believe it was all a surprise to them when the towers were hit? That they knew nothing about 9/11 before it happened? That they were able to conceal this information that has been validated by the State Dept for all these years? What does it mean? Break it down.

2. it is impossible to wrap the mind around
the PNAC thought process. My try: what is its ultimate goal? Global domination. At any cost. Too many humans on the planet, collateral damage not a problem.
