But wait...what about Air Force One, then?
Maybe our national 9/11 commission should start bringing some of these European magazines on board--it seems like they've got more info than our congresspeople do...
Report: Capitol Was Sept. 11 Attackers Fourth Goal

BERLIN (Reuters) - The U.S. Capitol Building, not the White House, was the fourth target of the Sept. 11 attackers, a German magazine reported Sunday citing results of interrogations of suspected al Qaeda leaders.
Der Spiegel said also planning for the attacks on New York and Washington in 2001 began as early as 1996, but plans hatched in 1999 to use four planes in the attacks were temporarily halted because only two pilots could then obtain U.S. visas. The operation, code-named "Porsche 911" by its perpetrators, was finalized in July 2001, the magazine said.
