depends how you define "he knew". bush didnt know what date it was going to be on nor the exact details. not even some of the hijackers knew the details as to what would happen.
about a year ago in the phillipines some information was discovered that showed that islamic extremists were planning to smash airplanes into buildings, which wasnt classified info, i doubt it even made the news though since such threats were common.
the only real question is should we have been told about rumors and potential plots pre-sept 11. if we were told back then, i dont think we woul have panicked or changed anything. post-sept 11 theyre issuing warnings left and right and we're all about security.
