Okay, has anyone else read "The New Pearl Harbor" yet? |
|
I finished the book in one day.
What did you think of it? I'm still thinking about his points, that's for sure.
I'm now trying to get DH to read it.

about 9/11 . . . and they are myriad . . . the more one learns, the more one understands that the LEAST likely scenario of what happened that day is the "official" story . . .

2. What did you think about his thoughts on the Pentagon? |

I was a bit chilled on the whole explanation of what actually happened at the Pentagon that day, and Ted Olson's reaction to it.
Those who might remember the coverage might also remember some very interesting verbiage coming out of network talking heads at the time -- it seems that Barbara had had a change of heart over her strident neoconservatism and her recent comments about Virginia Kelley Clinton (she called Bill Clinton's mom a "barfly", this made the international press.)
I also seem to remember his insisting that Barbara was the only person aboard that plane to call him, even though she had no cell phone and no credit cards on her person. It's impossible to make an AirFone call without a credit card. (Also, what kind of nut would fly cross country without a purse? I don't care if she was making a TV appearance, wouldn't she need even a small amount of cash and her personal items?)
I know that we can't be the only two DU'ers that have read this book. What did the rest of you think of it?
