George Bush was warned before September 11
that Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda group
[World-Action: It might be more accurate
to state: 'the CIA's al Qaeda group'] may
have been plotting to hi jack American
airplanes, the White House said. But
officials said the President had no way of
knowing that hi jackers would use the
planes in suicide attacks. About 3,000
people died in the hi jack attacks on New
York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon
in Washington.
