"Al-Quaida warning not specific enough" - Bush
 President Bush said on Sunday that the intelligence briefing he received on Al Qaeda one month before the Sept. 11 strike contained no specific "indication of a terrorist attack" on American soil.
"I am satisfied that I never saw any intelligence that indicated there was going to be an attack on America — at a time and a place, an attack," Mr. Bush said after attending Easter services in Fort Hood, Tex.
"Of course we knew that Osama bin Laden was gong to attack at some point, and yes, the FBI clearly warned me only three weeks before that Al-Quaida was planning a terrorist attack involving loads of explosives, hijacked airplanes and some very very tall buildings probably in New York, but to say that this means we knew what was going to happen and where it was going to happen, or that we should have done anything whatsoever to prevent it is quite ridiculous.”
