Comment, November 30, 2009
There is nothing much new in the wikileaks compendium. The compendium does allow us to make an observation. An event “x” occurs and a few minutes later texting about that event pops up. The ‘delta’ is on the order of 3-5 minutes, perhaps less in some cases.
That observation allows us to, again, establish that the White House/West Wing evacuation occurred after the Pentagon was struck, as also captured on the CNN raw footage.
That also allows us to place Norman Mineta as arriving at the White House after the Pentagon was struck. He stated that he arrived as the White House was being evacuated. He misspoke in his testimony and conflated UA 93 with AA 77.
The Commission established from contemporary logs that Mineta arrived at the PEOC, proper, after 10:00. Nothing has emerged to change that assessment.
