(Text In Progress) by  <br><br> ADRIAN MORE  <br><br>  <br><br>  <br><br> Un-dear San Francisco mayor Willie Brown:  <br><br> on the night of Monday, September 10, 2001, you got an interesting call.  <br><br> \"A full eight hours\" before the 911 terror attacks, your \"airport security\" gave you a buzz advising you \"that Americans should be cautious about their air travel\".  <br><br> Quite a call indeed - especially since you were booked to fly to New York the next day.  <br><br> Now - I didn't know you had \"your\" own airport security at San Francisco International, Willie.  <br><br> I thought airport security was for everyone.  <br><br> Instead, \"your\" airport security alerted only you. And you, the San Francisco mayor, did not pass on the alert to anyone else.  <br><br> \"Exactly where the call came from is a bit of a mystery. The mayor would say only that it came from 'my security people at the airport'\".  <br><br> Slight nuance here. It's not 'your airport security' anymore, but 'your security people at the airport'.  <br>  <br> So the mystery is not 'where' the call came from - it came from the airport.  <br>  <br> And we know when it came - late Monday night, Sept.10, 2001.  <br><br> But what you didn't tell us, willie, is the name of the person who alerted you.  <br><br> Because that bastard had foreknowledge of 911.  <br>  <br> And he passed that criminal foreknowledge (which amounts to complicity, because he didn't alert all Americans, thus sending the passenger and crews of the 4 planes to the slaughter) on to you, mayor brown.  <br><br> And you - a public figure, with easy &amp; fast mass media access - kept that foreknowledge of 911 to yourself, thus becoming another accessory before the fact along with the faceless coward who had called you.  <br><br> Yeah you tried (in vain) to downplay the episode - probably after realizing you'd made a huge mistake in reporting it at all.  <br><br> You said the call \"didn't come in any alarming fashion\".  <br><br> Even assuming that this were true, ITS CONTENTS were alarming in the extreme: \"Americans should be cautious about their air travel\" can only mean one thing: stay home because something's gonna happen.  <br><br> Again your evasive, vain downplaying: \"It was not an abnormal call. I'm always concerned if my flight is going to be on time, and they always alert me when I ought to be careful.\"  <br><br> But that one call was NOT about flight delays. This was not about ' being careful'.  <br><br> That one special call was about being \"cautious about air travel\" - that is, a warning to stay put &amp; not fly on 911.  <br><br> And it warned \"Americans\". Except: 99,9% of Americans were NOT warned.  <br>  <br> But YOU (and the bastard who called you) were, willie.  <br><br> You could &amp; OUGHT TO have called your massmedia whores immediately: you had \"a full 8 hours\" and the public power to warn ALL AMERICANS to be cautious. You didn't. Your negligence was criminal.  <br><br> You ought to be in jail for dereliction of duty, mayor brown.  <br><br> You ought to be held, at the very least, as a material witness to 911.  <br><br> YOU OUGHT TO BE FORCED, IF THIS WERE A REAL DEMOCRACY, TO TESTIFY UNDER OATH &amp; ON PRIME TIME LIVE CNN AS TO:  <br>  <br> - WHO CALLED THAT NIGHT: THE NAME!  <br>  <br> - WHO THE HELL ARE \"YOUR SECURITY PEOPLE AT THE AIRPORT\": THE NAMES!  <br><br>  <br>  <br> According to my source nr 2 (see bottom), the source on which the call was based was a state department memo issue on Sept.7 - but that memo \"addressed concerns for Americans overseas and made no mention of any possible attack on U.S. soil\".  <br><br> And willie you were booked to fly to New York not overseas.  <br><br> So why did this anonymous \"airport security\" warn you at all?  <br><br> You are a fucking bastard, willie brown.  <br><br> But it's never too late to repent and own up to one's crimes - willie brown, you talked too much.  <br><br>  <br><br>  <br><br> ADRIAN MORE  <br><br>  <br><br> First version finished on July 25, 2002.  <br><br>  <br><br>  <br><br> Sources:  <br>  <br> 1.
