Today's preliminary 911 commission's report just made me so mad.
On 9/11, I remember watching all TV channels just replaying plane crashing in the World Trade tower.
I kept screaming at the screen where the hell are F-16. And later when I found out that Flight control center did know that they had hijacking situation, I couldn't understand why none of 4 planes were trailed by fighter jets. Why there was no attempt to force them down using standard 3 plane formation.
And now 911 commission tells us it was a break down in communication. Of cause, and now no one is really to blame. Almost everyone on the watch that day was "new" to the position and "didn't really know what to do".
What almost no one seems to be talking about the fact, that tape of communication between FAA and Pentagon and NORAD was partially lost and some of it still is "top secret". Air Traffic controllers responsible for the 4 planes where forcibly put on medical leave. And the interviews right after the event were destroyed. And then of cause the final decisions were made by Vice President.
Isn't there a problem with this picture? Personally I want some 'heads' rolling.
