I would have thought that Trump would have needed definite proof....If as it happened that OBL stated that he was responsible for 9/11, I believe he wold have bombed the hell out of where ever OBL was....and wait on the land troops.....Carpet bombing is only bad for the people that protect a killer!
Even Slick Willie knew bin Laden was a threat, but because he was more interested in Monica's snatch and "purty mouth", he didn't/couldn't do anything about it. Bush was just settling into his Presidency when the shit hit the fan. It was pretty clear from the start who did it.
Well,we knew from the passenger list it was muslim's ...BUT since 17 of them came from Saudi Arabia, and since Bush let the OBL's family fly out of country the day after 9/11.... to me it speaks VOLUMES about what was really known and the failure to prosecute the perpetrator correctly!
No flights left the country until 9/13, here is Snopes take on the story about them being secreted out.
Flights of Fancy
I know you're not going to believe this but it's true.
On the day of 9-11 I heard a plane above my house. The sky had clouds so I couldn't see it but I heard it. The engine sounded loud and deep. It was a large plane. I was on the phone with my husband when I heard it. I held out the phone so he could hear it.
I live where Boeing makes planes so I know the sound of planes. I know the sound of a large engine plane. I'm a Boeing Brat so I know a lot about planes. Boeing has supported me most of my life due to my dad working there since 1959 and my husband working there since 1988.
He listened to the engine and just as I said, it was a large engine plane. He suggested it was a military place since there's military bases south of us and and west of us.
To this day I don't know what plane it was but there was a plane in the sky above my house and my area on 9-11 when no planes were supposed to be in the sky.
