Bush under fire over terror alert

"Their comments come after the White House acknowledged that President Bush was told a month before 11 September of a plot to hijack American planes by Osama Bin Laden."

That explains why so much airline stock was sold short right around the attacks.

    How so? A large amount of stock was traded just before the attacks.
    Now we know that there were people who knew there would be hijackings.
    Not necessarily plane-missiles, but hijackings that would surely affect
    the stock price.
