I also feel that the Bush admin knew about an attack on the US was coming and ignored all of the warnings, for what reason? I don't know. But finding out will be harder than just accepting that it was for some unknown reason, beyond simply saying "they screwed up".
oh Onifre, what about the Project for the New American Centry, pushing for hegemony in the Middle East, with their "What we need is another Pearl Harbor" statement at the meeting? Actually here is what i found about that:
Section V of Rebuilding America's Defenses, entitled "Creating Tomorrow's Dominant Force", includes the sentence: "Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event——like a new Pearl Harbor"
so they dont actually blatantly advocate a new Pearl Hardor. but they do note that it would speed things up.

But doesn't that come with a loathing for Dubya? The guy was a douchebag of a president, sure. But a lot of people turned him into a diabolical fire-breathing monster who preyed on unsuspecting children.
no - not him - he was just a tool. it's Cheney that was the fire-breathing diabolical monster preying on unsuspecting children!
:-D
There is no evidence to suggest that [bush] had prior knowledge, which sounds all the more ridiculous when you consider that the 4th plane was gunning for him!
remember, he was safely in Florida reading about Goats to school children, holding the book upside down....

in an Astonishing Break From My Historical Pattern, i will come to poor George's Defense (!!) and say that he may have just been showing pictures on the page to the other kids in the class during her reading of it.
but the dude was safely out of the way where he couldnt screw things up.
