My point is that the Bush administration claims it was unaware that a hijacked plane could be used as a weapon. Honestly, it's not the sort of thing that would immediately pop to one's mind.

Here is an excerpt from an Amazon.com review of the Tom Clancy book "Executive Orders", published in October, 1996:



Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Tom Clancy goes to the White House in this thriller of political terror and global disaster. The American political situation takes a disturbing turn as the President, Congress, and Supreme Court are obliterated when a Japanese terrorist lands a 747 on the Capitol.



Yeah -- whoever could think of such a thing.
