RDX Computerized Sequence<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another odd twist was the bomb sniffing dogs were removed from the complex on the Thursday, despite the fact that the complex had been on heightened alert for weeks prior to the attacks, under the orders of U.S. President George W. Bush\u2019s younger brother Marvin Bush who headed up security operations for the WTC at the time.<\/p>\n<p>A 2003 investigative report titled \u201cBush-Linked Company Handled Security for the WTC, Dulles and United,\u201d Margie Burns explains:<\/p>\n<p><em>George W. Bush\u2019s brother was on the board of directors of a company providing electronic security for the World Trade Center, Dulles International Airport and United Airlines, according to public records. The company was backed by an investment firm, the Kuwait-American Corp., also linked for years to the Bush family.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The security company, formerly named Securacom and now named Stratesec, is in Sterling, Va.. Its CEO, Barry McDaniel, said the company had a \u201ccompletion contract\u201d to handle some of the security at the World Trade Center \u201cup to the day the buildings fell down.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It also had a three-year contract to maintain electronic security systems at Dulles Airport, according to a Dulles contracting official. Securacom\/Stratesec also handled some security for United Airlines in the 1990s, according to McDaniel, but it had been completed before his arriving on the board in 1998.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>McDaniel confirmed that the company has security contracts with the Department of Defense, including the U.S. Army, but did not detail the nature of the work, citing security concerns. It has an ongoing line with the General Services Administration \u2013 meaning that its bids for contracts are noncompetitive \u2013 and also did security work for the Los Alamos laboratory before 1998.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Marvin P. Bush, the president\u2019s youngest brother, was a director at Stratesec from 1993 to fiscal year 2000. But the White House has not publicly disclosed Bush connections in any of its responses to 9\/11, nor has it mentioned that another Bush-linked business had done security work for the facilities attacked.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Marvin Bush joined Securacom when it was capitalized by the Kuwait-American Corporation, a private investment firm in D.C. that was the security company\u2019s major investor, sometimes holding a controlling interest. Marvin Bush has not responded to telephone calls and e-mails for comment.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>KuwAm has been linked to the Bush family financially since the Gulf War. One of its principals and a member of the Kuwaiti royal family, Mishal Yousef Saud al Sabah, served on the board of Stratesec.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The managing director at KuwAm, Wirt D. Walker III, was also a principal at Stratesec, and Walker, Marvin Bush and al Sabah are listed in SEC filings as significant shareholders in both companies during that period.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Marvin Bush\u2019s last year on the board at Stratesec coincided with his first year on the board of HCC Insurance, formerly Houston Casualty Co., one of the insurance carriers for the WTC. He left the HCC board in November 2002.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/video.beforeitsnews.com\/embed.php?vid=f17db1895\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" seamless=\"\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/beforeitsnews.com\/r2\/?url=http:\/\/video.beforeitsnews.com\/wtc-power-down_f17db1895.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">WTC Power Down<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"FIOnDemandWrapper_fiInstance_100920_20_9438617\" class=\"FIOnDemandWrapper\">\n<div class=\"apd_static_banner \"><iframe id=\"cto_iframe_c6cbd3c775\" width=\"336px\" height=\"280px\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>To date the 9\/11 Commission and the New York Port Authority deny the fact that the reported power down took place.
