This changes everything. It looks momentous. He gave this testimony under oath. Why would he give false testimony about it? And why have others presented conflicting testimony?
Note that Cheney did not testify under oath before the 911 Commission. Why did he refuse to testify under oath? He appeared, jointly with the president -- and that too was not the normal way to do it. They refused to testify under oath, as everyone else had to before the Commission.
Why is this? This, combined with discrepancies in when Cheney was where, looks very odd. Doesn't it?

I think it's about time we start asking some questions.
I agree. Here's the first ones. What was Mineta doing in the bunker before the planes hit? Was he in on the Clinton regime attacks on the WTC? What did Mineta know and when did he know it? Isn't Mineta Japanese? What did he have to do with Pearl Harbor? Was it his idea that Clinton used on 9/11?

The term is executive privilege and the concept has been upheld by the Supreme Court.
Here is a list of cases, sometimes the Executive wins sometimes it loses, but the outcome is dependent on the ruling of the Supreme Court:
1. (1796) Washington refused to hand over document concerning the Jay treaty. He won
2. (1807) Jefferson and Burr - Jefferson refused to turn over private letters concerning Burr until compelled to do so by the Supreme Court - he complied.
3. (1954) Army-McCarthy hearings - President Eisenhower refused to turn over documents to the McCarthy hearing. Eisenhower won
4. (1974) US vs Nixon. Dependent on your outlook Nixon lost or a possible tie.
5. (1998) Clinton in the Lewinsky case. Again dependent on your outlook Clinton lost or possible tie because he negotiated terms of his testimony.
If the issue involves national security the court tends to side with the executive branch and not Netscape contributors. Bring on the negative votes.

Thanks CrzyRay. I was worried for Dich Cheney. He gets abused so much by LIberals.
Im sure it dont help none that hes a megalomanic. Im thinkin that his megalomania is what causes his constant lying and excessive secrecy.
I hear tell he wont allow anyone to review his records cause hes not part of the exectutive branch a goverment -even though he works in the exectutive offices - with the president.
sEE? Thats all part of his severe mental disease.

It is vary common for the president and the vice-president not to testify on or off oath to the congress. This is a standing practice that goes back to Washington and is done to protect the separation of powers that each branch has.
Yes it looks odd. It looks like a man sitting on ground zero waiting for the blast to go off NOT LOOKING AT HIS WATCH! Jest how much time are we talking about?
This changes nothing.

Mineta said:
"When I overheard something about 'the orders still stand' and so, what I thought of was that they had already made the decision to shoot something down."
What order? The article cites CJCSI 3610.01A and provides the cover pages. I would bet that 99% of you never bothered to lokk it up and read it.
ENCLOSURE A
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE IN PIRACY (HIJACKING) OF CIVIL AIRCRAFT
AND MILITARY AIRCRAFT
3. Procedures
a. General. Military personnel will provide the following types of
support: intercept, surveillance, lift, equipment, and communications.
Military personnel may not participate in a search, seizure, arrest, or
other similar activity. This restriction would include the apprehension
of aircraft hijackers or use of military aircraft (fixed-wing or helicopter)
or other vehicles as platforms for gunfire or the use of other weapons

provided under this enclosure if it could adversely affect national
security or military preparedness.
Do you understand what this says? (actually that's a rhetorical question)

I hope for sure that it's soon. There's too many people out there who are aware of this information but have the "I'm only one person...I can't possibly make a difference." attitude. Every person makes a big difference. I firmly believe things will change a lot once LC: Final Cut is released nation-wide.
People need to stop wading in the pool of denial and wipe themselves off with the towel of truth. (Sorry for the corny analogy, it just came to me :-P )

"During the time that the airplane was coming into the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice Presidentâ;¦the plane is 50 miles outâ;¦the plane is 30 miles outâ;¦.and when it got down to the plane is 10 miles out, the young man also said to the vice president "do the orders still stand?" And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said "Of course the orders still stand, have you heard anything to the contrary!?"
Uh oh...someone's in trouble.

antinwo says:Only takes 5 minutes to intercept.
Well as the transcripts show, it took more than 5 minutes for the crews to get into the planes and get ready to take off after the first plane was hijacked. And then they were not launched until after the five minutes were past. So once again an unfounded claim is made.....

"At a bare minimum, this confirmation by Norman Mineta is in gross contradiction to the 9/11 Commission Report and poses serious questions about the Vice President's role in ordering NORAD to stand down on 9/11."
Oh great. Now I have to apologize to the 9/11 truth movement. They were right all along, well on this part at least.

You are engaging in pure speculation and name calling in order to call attention away from sworn testimony. You have spun out again.

You are right, if all four planes had been shot down.
Now, if two had been shot down, after two had crashed into the WTC... well that's quite a different story then, isn't it?
When is the the next multi-millionaire ex-CIA asset going to engineer an attack on the U.S. from a primitive backwater, and then elude the entire Western world's military and intelligence apparati for six years? Now that's a friggin' conspiracy theory!

scriblerus11 year, 3 months ago
You make a very good point, Obaku. They even had a few minutes after the first plane hit WTC; controllers must have seen where the second plane was going. They probably could have intercepted it, although it might have been over NYC by the time they could get to it.
Certainly it would not be an easy decision. Nevertheless, by the time the scenario in the story developed, Cheney clearly knew what was happening; and he had very good reason to believe the plane was headed for either the WH or Pentagon. The decision he had to make--was clearly justified in making--was obvious; yet he didn't change the orders. Why?

President Cheney is uncorruptible and is a shining example of being our leader today. This President is paragon of virtue and emulates Pinocchio, oh wait not Pinocchio but Vice President Bush.

I'm in an adult education program and have decided to use all of the truther's information I can find to do papers and presentations on. This just adds another citation to my work. I am going to just keep writing and presenting on this stuff and let others make up their own minds about what they think it all means. To me...it is very clear that information is being suppressed and/or spun and/or flat out lied about. There are way too many conflicting stories, photos, videos, testimony, and evidence to keep believing that certain government officials weren't privy to information and events before they actually took place. Call me a kook if you want, but my intellect and critical thinking far outweigh my ability to blow this off as coincidental.

iwant5000- wow! how can you say they aren't guilty, when you couldn't possibly know? and I'm not saying you're wrong, or right...you just don't know.
Why do you need a detailed explaination if you've already made up your mind it's not true? How can you say it is or isn't??? were you there before, during and after? you had the whole inside scoop?
I don't have any idea if it's true or not, that's why I think any questions people have, are valid. People who say it is or isn't true 100% are partly responsible for the reasons cover ups can happen- would anyone like to be involved in that?
you can't deny the house is full of liars, I think there should be MANY questions asked, just because one asks questions, doesn't mean they are twoofers,that you believe or don't believe something or they are unpatriotic or any other negative thing. I personally think it shows you care about America, and expect it to be run as it should be, these people work for US! Ask questions!

Now what I haven't heard from YOU is an explanation for the discrepancies between Cheney's testimony and Minetta's. Or why Condi Rice swore that no one in the administration ever "considered hijacked airplanes as flying bombs" when NORAD was running drills of hijacked airplanes as flying bombs ON 9/11!

Minetta was a Clintonista. The 9/11 attack was a Clinton scheme. So...what did Mineta know and when did he know it? And why was Mineta hiding in a bunker before the events happened?
