Did Bush know the first plane was hijacked?

Question

Boston started to let the chain of command know at 8:25am that there was a problem, the plane hit at 8:46, Bush entered the school around 9am...if Bush knew a hijacked plane hit the WTC doesn't it seem odd he even went into the school?

Then Bush even has the gall to say he saw the first plane hit!! http://youtube.com/watch?v=Sm73wOuPL60 Nobody bothered to call the POTUS to say it was a hijacked plane...this whole thing is nuts!!

Please...if you can..comfort me and tell me I can trust my government! I'd much rather sit back, relax and trust that they care about me and my family!

Answer 1

ok, so I completely don't believe in any conspiracy theories about 9/11....however this one issue has always bugged me, b/c you are correct....he knew about the first plane, says he saw it, but it wasn't on any news program. I am thinking this was a misstatement, and not fact.

Answer 2

I'm sure he knew everything about the 9/11 terror acts in advance, but he actually wanted them to happen so that he could be elected for the second term (and for starting "war on terrorism")

Answer 3

Considering all circumstances and inconsistent public statements surrounding the early morning events of 9-11, the only logical answer is “Yes”.

Even if you give the government the benefit of the doubt about the time line, President Bush's inconsistent statements and odd behavior of the day add to the suspicious cloud over the government’s official fairy tale.

It was no “mis-speak” that he claimed he saw the first plane on TV on Sept. 11 (which footage did not exist then).  He went on about it, and described what he “saw” in some detail.  

No wonder he insisted that Cheney hold his hand while testifying at the 9-11 Commission!  Hey, if  you were a high level criminal inside the government involved in criminal complicity with 9-11, how much would you tell GWB?  Probably no more than absolutely necessary because GWB cannot be trusted to keep the story straight.

Another interesting point.  Why was he not rushed out to safety when advised that the country was under attack?  Isn’t that the protocol?  Why was he permitted to stay at the school for so long?  How did they know there wasn’t a plane targeting President Bush?    

I feel very foolish for once believing the official fairy tale.  I cannot give you the comfort you ask.  You cannot trust the criminals that are in control of the current government.

Answer 4

not before the  second hit

Answer 5

I think they let it happen. The same as they did with Pearl Harbor.

Dont ever trust the government.

Answer 6

As far as Bush saying he saw the first plane hit,   he probably saw it the same way we all did,   a news crew was doing a story on the NYFD and caught it on tape.   (Link below)

Most of us "saw" the second plane hit "live" on TV as news crews were filming the first tower fire and the second plane came in and hit the second tower.  That also can be seen on the link below.

I think you need to focus on the important aspects of the event rather than trying to find fault with Bush.

Answer 7

You need to read the timelines of who knew what and when they knew it on that day.  Just because Boston reported a _suspected_ hijacking at 8:25 does not mean that the word had made it to everybody.  

It is just plain foolish to assume that everybody somehow has accurate and timely information during a developing situation.

The real world simply does not work that way.

Answer 8

Who ever thinks the government isn't capable of knowing and doing unethical things is naive and foolish!

Answer 9

"if Bush knew a hijacked plane hit the WTC doesn't it seem odd he even went into the school?"

At 9:00 am he didn't know it was a hijacked jet. He assumed, like many did, that it was an accident.

"Then Bush even has the gall to say he saw the first plane hit!!"

I think he just confabulated the story about seeing the first plane hit.  People do this all the time. He heard about the first plane hitting and saw the second plane hit. He combined those events in his mind.

If they were really sharp enough to pull off the biggest mass murder in US history, wouldn't they also be sharp enough to have an excellent cover story?
