From: "Walter Lippmann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [CubaNews] Bush's disappearance on 9-11 unjustified GRANMA September 28, 2001 No threats existed to justify Bush' disappearance on the day of the attacks WASHINGTON.- It is possible that the telephone threat that allegedly forced U.S. President George W. Bush to escape aboard a presidential Air Force One plane was never made. The White House justified the president's disappearance on the morning of the Twin Towers and Pentagon attacks by stating that it had received a "credible threat". Supposedly, someone called the presidential residence on September 11 to warn Bush that he was being watched by terrorists that day. Vice President Dick Chaney advised Bush not to return to the White House the same day. Now, White House sources admit that there is no evidence that such a call was made. A television network is affirming that the telephone call never really happened. A White House official admitted that the error could have arisen from certain secret service agents who misinterpreted some presidential residence employees. Bush's sudden disappearance from Washington generated strong criticism in various U.S. press media. (ANSA) _________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
