White House releases August 6 memo; Earth spins out of orbit as secret sources and methods are revealed

Here is an image of the first page: August 6, 2001 memo for President Bush's eyes only (He doesn't read newspapers)
The second page continues:
Nevertheless, FBI information since that time indicates patterns of suspicious activity in this country consistent with preparations for hijackings or other types of attacks, including recent surveillance of federal buildings in New York.

The FBI is conducting approximately 70 full field investigations throughout the US that it considers Bin Ladin-related. CIA and the FBI are investigating a call to our Embassy in the UAE in May saying that a group of Bin Ladin supporters was in the US planning attacks with explosives.

I am sure it took much effort to apply magic marker to all the top-secret sources. Here is what Aljazeera has to say: 'Memo contradicts Condoleezza Rice.'
And here is what the New York Times report said before the full memo was released.

Father, let me dedicate All this year to you
In whatever earthly state You will have me be
Not from sorrow, pain, or care Freedom dare I claim;
This alone shall be my prayer: Glorify Your name.
--from New Year's Hymn by Lawrence Tuttiett, 1864 (alt.)
