Instead, they back themselves further and further toward saying "If we had known the terrorist were going to fly planes into the world trade center, we would havetried to stop them. If we had known which flights they would be on, we would have done everything in our pwer to cancel those flights."
The main crime is not what they did before 9/11, it's what they did after. They should be greatful for all this focus on pre 9/11, becuase as bad as it may be for them, it's drawing attention away from how thye responded.

WOULD YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP?
You're one hundred percent right, burbank, there's nothing criminal in the slightest about their pre-9/11 behavior,
but if this can get the administration, and more importantly Bush and the absurd right wing out of power, leave it alone and let it run its course.
I know that makes me a hypocrite. I prefer 'pragmatist.'
