The Secret Service at Booker Elementary:
The Dog That Did Not Bark
 
 
 
9/11 White House press briefing:
"The United States Secret Service immediately secured the President, the Vice President and the Speaker of the House, and they are all safe."
 
 
Okay, let's have a look at how the Secret Service reacted when President Bush was informed by Andrew Card that America was under attack:
 
 
Video of President Bush's visit to Booker Elementary on 9-11
 
 
 
The fictional Sherlock Holmes solved the crime in "Silver Blaze" by deducing it was the owner of the house who was the criminal. How did he know? Because the dog did not bark. The only person whocould have committed the crime without arousing the dog was someone the dog knew as a friend, the dog's owner.
 
 
 
Inspector Gregory: "Is there any other point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"
 
Holmes: "To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."
"The dog did nothing in the night time"
 
"That was the curious incident," remarked Sherlock Holmes.
From "The Adventure of Silver Blaze" by Arthur Conan Doyle
 
 
 
 
Now let us turn our Sherlockian logic on 9-11.
 
 
Hijacked aircraft were wandering across the eastern half of the country. In theory no-one could have known how many planes had been hijacked. Two planes had crashed into the World Trade Center, Bush was at a publicised photo opportunity at Booker Elementary School, and there is an airport only four miles from this School.

Bush Presses Education Agenda in Sunshine State

The Sarasota Herald Tribune announced Bush's visit to Booker Elementary on September 8th, giving the 9-11 planners three days to include Bush as a target for a diving jetliner. Nobody could have safely assumed he was not a target.

The Booker Elementary video shows the Secret Service did not rush in to remove the President to a secure location, or at least to the safety of the armored Presidential Limousine. That's their job. That's what they do in the case of a real surprise attack withmany unknowns. They don't do anything else.
 
 
But the Secret Service did nothing. The dog did not bark.
 
 
Bush defenders try to explain Bush's inaction as his not wanting to upset the children. Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9-11" suggests Bush's inaction was due to his not being told to leave. But Michael Moore fails to follow that line of reasoning through to its logical conclusion; where were the people whose job it is to get the President to a place of safety in event of attack, the people who would have, SHOULD have, pulled Bush out of there, children and public appearances be damned!
 
 
 
The Secret Service did nothing. The dog did not bark.
 
If the events of 9-11 were truly a surprise to the United States Government then there is no way the Secret Service could have known there wasn't a hijacked or stolen plane heading towards Booker Elementary School that very second.
 
 
 
 
Three Secret Service agents, a SWAT member, the Marine and Balkwill turned on the television in a nearby front office as United Airlines Flight 175 out of Boston crashed into the south tower.

"We're out of here," the Marine told Balkwill. "Can you get everyone ready?" [Sarasota Herald Tribune]
 
 
 
 
The Secret Service did nothing. The dog did not bark.
 
 
The Secret Service should be in that video, but they are not. It is clear from their inaction that they KNEW FOR A FACT THAT THE PRESIDENT WAS NOT A TARGET OF ONE OF THE HIJACKED PLANES. The intended targets of the planes had to have been known.
 
The dog did not bark because the criminal was its master.
 
Quod Erat Demonstradum, the Bush administration was part of the 9-11 plot.
