Seems the only mess slick cleaned up before he left was the last one. I think we have the blue dress to thank for that ....

U.S. Failed to Act on Warnings in '98 of a Plane Attack

The United States intelligence community was told in 1998 that Arab terrorists were planning to fly a bomb-laden plane into the World Trade Center, but the F.B.I. and the Federal Aviation Administration did not take the threat seriously, a Congressional investigation into the Sept. 11 attacks has found.

That August 1998 intelligence report from the Central Intelligence Agency was just one of several warnings the United States received, but did not seriously analyze, in the years leading up to the Sept. 11 attacks that were detailed today at a Congressional hearing.

and the fact that the entire world knew they had lready tried to blow up WTC once with a bomb in a van, but parked it in the wrong place.

It strikes me that this is the obvious sort of clue that an 'intelligence agency' might have picked up on...

A culture of invulnerability may be to blame.
