Report: Rice Brushed Off Bin Laden Warnings in July 2001
Members of the 9/11 Commission have expressed alarm over a report in  
Bob Woodward’s new book over a previously unknown meeting two months  
before the Sept. 11 attacks between then National Security Advisor  
Condoleeza Rice, former CIA Director George Tenet and his counter- 
terrorism head Cofer Black. According to the book, on July 10, 2001,  
Tenet went over top-secret intelligence pointing to an impending  
attack and ’sounded the loudest warning’ to the White House of a  
likely attack on the U.S. by Bin Laden. Woodward writes that Tenet  
and Black felt that Rice brushed off their concerns. The White House  
has disputed Woodward’s account of the meeting.
