The current Bush Administration in the United States is coming under increasing pressure to be more forthcoming in admitting what it knew in advance about the September 11 terrorist attacks.
National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice told the press, on Thursday, that intelligence reports had warned of probable attacks on American targets, but that the White House thought the attacks would be outside the United States.
Dr. Rice opened the Press Briefing with a description of various intelligence reports spanning December 2000 through August 2001. For the full contents of Dr. Rice’s Press Briefing, please visit The White House website direct link to the contents at:
