9/11 See other 9/11 Articles Title: 9/11 Commission Admits: All Politics Friday, August 04, 2006 9/11 Commission Admits: All Politics The co-chairs of the 9/11 Commission now admit that the Commission largely acted based upon political considerations. As revealed in the new book "Without Precedent": Republican Thomas Kean and Democrat Lee Hamilton also say in "Without Precedent" that their panel was too soft in questioning former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani — and that the 20-month investigation may have suffered for it. *** The book states that commission staff, "exceedingly frustrated" by what they thought could be deception, proposed a full review into why the FAA and the Pentagon's NORAD had presented inaccurate information. That ultimately could have led to sanctions. Due to a lack of time, the panel ultimately referred the matter to the inspectors general at the Pentagon and Transportation Department. Both are preparing reports, spokesmen said this week. "Fog of war could explain why some people were confused on the day of 9/11, but it could not explain why all of the after-action reports, accident investigations and public testimony by FAA and NORAD officials advanced an account of 9/11 that was untrue," the book states. The questioning of Giuliani was considered by Kean and Hamilton "a low point" in the commission's examination of witnesses during public hearings. "We did not ask tough questions, nor did we get all of the information we needed to put on the public record," they wrote. Commission members backed off, Kean and Hamilton said, after drawing criticism in newspaper editorials for sharp questioning of New York fire and police officials at earlier hearings. The editorials said the commission was insensitive to the officials' bravery on the day of the attacks. "It proved difficult, if not impossible, to raise hard questions about 9/11 in New York without it being perceived as criticism of the individual police and firefighters or of Mayor Giuliani," Kean and Hamilton said. *** In their book, which goes on sale Aug. 15, Kean and Hamilton recap obstacles they say the panel faced in putting out a credible report in a presidential election year, including fights for access to government documents and an effort to reach unanimity. *** If Cleland had not resigned, the commission probably would not have reached unanimity, according to the book." So why does anyone still believe the mythical "official version" of 9/11 as told by the Commission? posted by George Washington at 5:58 PM
Poster Comment: This is a typical "limited hangout". As pressure mounts, release some tid-bits and try and defuse the real truth. There were over 500 individual oral/written testimonies given. The 911 Commission only had a couple fireman/police/EMS/employees and other eyewittnesses give testimony. It was behind closed doors, no public record, then was thrown out and not used, because of all the accounts of explosions and bombs going off and flashes being seen. Mark

From what I understand there are about seven "official" versions of the 9-11 fairytale, each one showing one Fedgov agency being self sacrificing heros, and the other agencies they interacted with as clueless boobs.

You are correct. Randi Rhoades had on Paul Thompson and he was stating that top officials at Norad/FAA/Pentagon have given about 7 different versions of 911. Mark
