Eine weitere Bush-Lüge
Geschrieben von Marcus am 07. Dezember 2001 23:47:03:
Bush gibt vor den ersten Einschlag ins WTC live im TV gesehen zu haben, doch das ist nicht möglich... Dann hielt er es angeblich für ein Unfall. Als der zweite Flieger einschlug hat er immer noch nicht reagiert. Abfangjäger zum Schutz des Pentagon wären massenhaft verfügbar gewesen (auch wenn die entsprechenden Internetseiten der Staffeln entfernt wurden, siehe emperor´s clothes) wurden aber nicht eingesetzt obwohl es dafür Regelungen und genug Zeit gab....

BUSH CAUGHT IN A LIE ABOUT WTC ATTACKS
At http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0112/04/se.04.html
is a transcript of President Bush's comments regarding the day of the attacks on the World Trade Towers.
Towards the bottom of the transcript is the following quote.QUESTION: One thing, Mr. President, is that you have no idea how much you've done for this country, and another thing is that how did you feel when you heard about the terrorist attack?
BUSH: Well...(APPLAUSE)
Thank you, Jordan (ph).
Well, Jordan (ph), you're not going to believe what state I was in when I heard about the terrorist attack. I was in Florida. And my chief of staff, Andy Card -- actually I was in a classroom talking about a reading program that works. And I was sitting outside the classroom waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's one terrible pilot." And I said, "It must have been a horrible accident."
But I was whisked off there -- I didn't have much time to think about it, and I was sitting in the classroom, and
Andy Card, my chief who was sitting over here walked in and said, "A second plane has hit the tower. America's under attack."
There is a problem with the above statement. There was no live video coverage of the first plane hitting the tower.
There couldn't be. Video of that first plane hitting the tower did not surface until days later.Bush is lying through his teeth here.
Even though Bush is not a very good pilot (he was taken off of flight status for failure to take a medical exam which
included a drug test), it would be silly to assume that a passenger jet hitting the WTC in clear weather was pilot error. The only other known impact between an aircraft and a New York skyscraper was when a military airplane crashed into the Empire State Building
in a heavy fog. Because of that incident, there are mandatory altitude minimums over the island. If Bush really did see an airplane on
TV hitting the World Trade Towers, then he saw that the aircraft was under control at the time.And, it must be remembered that even after andy informed Bush of the second impact, and by his own admission Bush
knew we were being attacked, he continued to read to the classsroom full of children.Just think about that for a while.
