Breaking News - 9/11 Flight Confrimed

Since days after 9/11, there has been a story floating around
about a flight that carried a group of Saudi natives out of
the US on 9/13/2001 while all air traffic was supposedly shut
down. The Bush white house has denied that this flight had
taken place. The FBI and FAA still maintain that this flight
did not exist. One Bush staffer jokingly said that this story
has achieved grassy knowl status (refering to all the JFK
conspiracy stories).

Well, guess what? This morning, officials from Tampa International
Airport have confirmed that yes, the flight did take place. They
also released the names of eye whitnesses to the flight. They
further stated that at least 3 Arabs boarded the flight. One Arab
was a member of the Saudi royal family. In addition, 2 US
government officials boarded the flight, one of which was
identified as an FBI agent. The TIA officials who released
this information stated that they were not allowed to check the
passenger list against the US terrorist watch list.

So, why did President Bush lie? And what are they trying to
cover up?

No, you are getting your facts wrong. Most air traffic was shut down on the
day the alleged flight took place, not all--see the St. Petersburg Times
account. "Most of the aircraft allowed to fly in U.S. airspace on Sept. 13
were empty airliners being ferried from the airports where they made quick
landings on Sept. 11. The reopening of the airspace included paid charter
flights, but not private, nonrevenue flights."

The Bush white house has denied that this flight had
taken place. The FBI and FAA still maintain that this flight
did not exist. One Bush staffer jokingly said that this story
has achieved grassy knowl status (refering to all the JFK
conspiracy stories).

But oddly enough the 9/11 commission already knows that such flights
occurred: "The 9/11 Commission, which has said the flights out of the United
States were handled appropriately by the FBI..." That is from the St
petersburg newspaper's account.


Well, guess what? This morning, officials from Tampa International
Airport have confirmed that yes, the flight did take place.

Odd; the airport's website does not include this "announcement" in its press
releases. Maybe this was only announced on the "knowl"?

They
also released the names of eye whitnesses to the flight.

Only whitnesses? No darknesses? How dare they! That is not at all
politically correct! What were the names of those "eye whitnesses", if they
were released?

They
further stated that at least 3 Arabs boarded the flight. One Arab
was a member of the Saudi royal family. In addition, 2 US
government officials boarded the flight, one of which was
identified as an FBI agent.

What? The flight was identified as an FBI agent? Actually, according to the
same source I indicated above, only a suspicion that one of the individuals
might be a member of the Saudi royal family was expressed, a suspicion that
as of yet is uncorroborated. And your FBI agent was reportedly actually a
*former* FBI agent.

The TIA officials who released
this information stated that they were not allowed to check the
passenger list against the US terrorist watch list.

And who might these fine upstanding folks be, by name? In fact, what the
report says is, "The TIA Police Department said a check of its records
indicated no member of its force screened the Lear's passengers", not that
they were not allowed to perform such screening. Given that a couple of
retired officers were assigned to escort the individuals on the flight,
screening probably was not really required, now was it?


So, why did President Bush lie? And what are they trying to
cover up?

"The 9/11 Commission, which has said the flights out of the United States
were handled appropriately by the FBI..." Enough said.
