9/11 Investigation Public Hearing Agenda Detailed

NOTE: Despite an expressed commitment to investigate (during these May hearings) the failure of the National Air Defense  and the collapse of airspace security over our Nation's capital and the Pentagon, the commission has apparently elected to only have one witness to testify regarding this very well documented line of inquiry.I will at this time refrain from further comment...except to say that I hope those of you who have something to say about this aspect of the ongoing 9/11 investigation will pipe up however you see fit.  And now would be a really good time for whistleblowers, if there are any, to step forward!

Press release to follow by Monday.
