Trump and Noem Suppress Information on Iranian Threat to Homeland
On August 6, 2001, President George W. Bush received a classified intelligence briefing titled “Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in U.S.” The CIA warned that al-Qaeda wanted to conduct attacks on American soil and noted suspicious activity consistent with preparations for hijackings. Thirty-six days later, nearly 3,000 Americans were dead on September 11.
There have been endless debates about whether that warning was specific enough, whether the intelligence community connected the dots, and whether the White House acted aggressively enough in response. Those debates will probably never end.
But it is indisputable both that the briefing existed and that other warnings about flight schools and extremist pilots went unheeded.
A chilling possibility hangs over the present moment. Somewhere inside the government right now, there is almost certainly another warning like that one. Not about hijacked airplanes but about Iranian assets seeking to harm Americans here at home.
