WASHINGTON INSIDER & SPECIAL BRIEF ON THE AMERICAS Vol. 12 · No. 9 · February 28 · 2002 Cheney’s Involuntary Leak On Sept. 11 … On Feb.15, Vice President Dick CHENEY addressed an event in Washington to inaugurate the Council on Foreign Relations’ MAURICE R.GREENBERG CENTER FOR GEOECONOMIC STUDIES, named after the chief of American International Group (AIG). (Delicately enough, the insurance giant AIG and Greenberg are currently subject of intense rumors concerning alleged major financial irregularities). At the CFR event, Cheney not only launched further threats against the “Axis of Evil,” but made an involuntary “leak” regarding what really happened on Sept.11.—-an attempted coup d ’etat by elements within the American military and intelligence services. Cheney’s fear of the real perpetrators of the Sept.11 attacks, was betrayed in his answer to a question by Georgie Anne GEYER of Universal Press Syndicate. Cheney admitted that the American government is still very much concerned about a possible attack on it: “Clearly, sort of at the front edge of why I am often at undisclosed locations is the need to avoid having the senior leadership of the US government all in one location on any kind of predictable basis ... it’s focused more than anything else on our obligation to protect and preserve the continuity of government, the presidential succession, and, therefore ...I’ve often stayed apart, away from the White House when the President’s in, and vice versa...” Unlike before, said Cheney, “now we’ve had to contemplate a whole different kind of threat where we’re talking about CONSPIRACIES, WELL-ORGANIZED GROUPS WITH POSSIBLY SUPPORT FROM OUTSIDE THE NATION”—-hardly a formulation befitting al-Qaida or Osama BIN LADEN!—-”able to put together, for example, something such as the attack on September 11th.” Cheney continued: “And I, personally,believe as well, and I think many people do, that the attackers of 9/11 clearly planned to do much more damage in Washington than they were able to do, and that the people who took down the airliner in Pennsylvania had, obviously, a very significant hand in thwarting what would have been a far more deadly attack had the hijackers been allowed to carry it out. ”This is a clear reference to the attack against the White House, which the plotters had planned to execute approximately 45 minutes after the attack on the Pentagon.
