So Bush ignored the message "Bin Laden determined to attack", Does it really matter??

123. read the damn link

then read 7110.65 hijacking.

Norad doesn't just respond to anything, the President being the Command in Chief and NORAD being in the military , it would be Bush who should be in charge. NORAD isn't set up for inside the U.S.A. it was set up doing the cold war for incomming , not over U.S. airspace.

Detection was accomplished with an ever-growing series of radar installations stretching across Canada. If you look at a globe from directly above, you can see that the shortest path between the United States and Russia is through the Arctic, placing Canada directly between the two Cold-Warring nations. NORAD's "radar fence" was meant to act as a first line of defense, giving as much advance warning as possible when attack planes or missiles were launched toward the United States or Canada. This would provide time to react (with retaliatory missiles) and possibly affect some form of evacuation or allow civilians to reach bomb
shelters
