You may regret posting that information here where the level of understanding is not adequate to put this into perspective regarding 9/11.
As you know, the problem on 9/11 was not with NORAD or even specifically NEADS timely response, it was simply that they didn't have a chance due to lack of notification time.

It is very clear that 9/11 never should have happened considering all that was known about the threat. Do you Agree with some people here that it was government incompetence only that allowed the attack to succeed ?
The disclosure that Jamie Jamie Gorelick, a member of the September 11 commission, was personally responsible for instituting a key obstacle to cooperation between law enforcement and intelligence operations before the terrorist attacks raises disturbing questions about the integrity of the commission itself. Ms. Gorelick should not be cross-examining witnesses; instead, she should be required to testify about her own behavior under oath. Specifically, commission members need to ask her about a 1995 directive she wrote that made it more difficult for the FBI to locate two of the September 11 hijackers who had already entered the country by the summer of 2001.

Why was that? Could it be that the protocol for intercepting craft that cannot provide identification, was changed in June of 2001 and then subsequently reverted back to what it was prior, just one day after this event? And what happened to the ground to air missiles that stand guard in underground bunkers at the Pentagon? They're supposed to be on automatic response to target unidentified aircraft. They are however programmed to not target military craft that have the proper code identifications. That would be the only way to circumvent the system. Maybe someone tripped on the plug?

You seem to think the 911 conspiracy section of ATS is a battle between good and evil. It's not. It is a stupidity contest. We are the judges and you're a contestant. Truthers come in here and say "I'm stupid and I can prove it" and we say "OK Kid show us what you got"

Was there a purpose in opposing these changes your saying should possibly have occurred pre 911....also when you say about the wall between agencies are you talking about one Jamie Gorelick one of the 911 commissions members.

So again could these instances of failure actually have been on purpose as another commission member stated...the 911 affair was a 30yr conspiracy....I believe it was Lee Hamilton that said that.

You dare to criticize others for posting false information and you post tripe such as this. Underground defenses at the Pentagon only exist in your imagination... There are no defenses of this nature at the Pentagon and never have been, period.
