This book is an account of how I found out about the attacks on 9/11 on February 11, 2001 on a trip out to New York from San Francisco. The information I was able to put together was as follows:

The al Qaeda terrorists were planning an enormous terrorist attack on the US aimed at destroying the World Trade Center Towers.

The al Qaeda terrorists were going to hijack four large aircraft in midair departing from eastern airports.

The planes would be of type 767 and 757.

They would use four to five al Qaeda terrorists per plane using concealed four inch knives as weapons, to hijack these planes.

They would fly these hijacked aircraft to the sides World Trade Center Towers.

The terrorists would be in place and ready to carry out this attack by September 1, 2001, and would carryout this attack some where between September 1 and September 14, 2001.

On February 14, 2001, I stood in front of these buildings to see if I could possible envision them continuing to stand after sustaining collisions from large commercial aircraft. I quickly concluded they would in almost all certainly collapse. Both the open floor plan combined with the estimated 100,000 pounds of aviation fuel in each plane was going to cause these structures to collapse.

On September 8, 2001, I went through Logan airport to see if I could spot the al Qaeda terrorists who were going to hijack these airplanes in front of the airport departure security points surveying the security procedures to find out how they could get their weapons, the four inch knives through security without alerting security personnel.I apparently missed seeing them by just a few hours.

On September 11, 2001 after the attack, I immediately contacted the FBI field office in Boston and gave them this information. Not only myself but almost every single person in my company was aware of this attack.

When I was not re-contacted by Boston FBI, after I retuned back to San Francisco I gave this information to the FBI field office in San Francisco, and in to the field office San Jose.

When the Joint Inquiry Committee of the House and the Senate had their investigation of 9/11, I gave them this information and the FBI reports on how I had known about the events on 9/11, to one of their investigators a Michael Jackson, and to Rick Cinquergrana, who at one time was in charge of this investigation.

On April 13-14, 2004 I gave this information to the 9/11 Commission.

After listing to the testimony of George Tenet on April 14, 2004 and still unable to figure out whey they could not have figured this out prior to 9/11, and prevent these attacks, I went back to research all of the information from these investigations to find the truth behind why they did not prevent these attacks. I also started to put this into a book on this research. It was not until late July of this year, 2006 that I was able to finally find the missing pieces I had been looking for and finally understand what went so terribly wrong, what was the real reason that 3000 people were killed in a entirely preventable attack on 9/11.

What are the facts about the meeting on July 10, 2001 between Tenet, Black and Rice at the White House?
See pages 654-656

This meeting on July 10, 2001 indicated that Tenet and Black were very concerned over the imminent attack by al Qaeda on the US. What did Tenet tell the President of the US about this attack in the meetings he had with the President in Crawford, Texas, on August 17, August 24, and in Washington on August 31, 200, or the six other times he met with the President in September prior to 9/11.
See page 656

Why did Tenet and Black forbid Tom Wilshire, former Deputy Chief of the Bin Laden Unit at the CIA, on July 13, 2001, 3 days after this meeting from providing to the FBI the information the CIA had on Khalid al-Mihdhar, Nawaf al-Hazmi, the fact they were at the Kuala Lumpur al Qaeda planning meeting on January 6-8, 2000, with Khallad bin Attash, mastermind of the Cole bombing, the fact that CIA knew Hazmi was already in the US and believed with high probability that Mihdhar was also in the US, and that Mihdhar had a multi-entry visa for the US.
See pages 522, 524, 588, 640, 656

Where is the information about Tom Wilshire, and the refusal of his CIA managers to allow him to transfer this information to the FBI on July 13, 2001 actually found?
See pages 522, 524, 656

Had this information been provided to the FBI on July 13, 2001, could the events on 9/11 have been prevented?
See pages 549, 588

How did Bob Woodward, author of "State of Denial" answer the question as to why Wilshire was forbidden from transferring this information to the FBI by Black and Tenet when his book makes it appear that Black and Tenet were doing all they could to prevent the events on 9/11 in their discussion with Rice on July 10, 2001, just three days earlier?
