I'm not running at all. If you want to keep insisting the 9/11 commission report is the truth then honestly I'm just going to ignore you because 5 minutes on Google is all you need to know that you're wrong.

I clicked on the link (this address speciaifically within the site - http://davidraygriffin.com/articles/911-and-the-american-empire-how-should-religious-people-respond/) and read this part and find it very hard to believe. Actually, I find it unbelievable. And like most of these truthers websites, I am turned off from reading any more. Do you believe this story Disco?
5. Evidence for Foreknowledge by US Officials
A central aspect of the official story about 9/11 is that the attacks were planned entirely by al Qaeda, with no one else knowing the plans. A year after the attacks, FBI Director Robert Mueller said: “To this day we have found no one in the United States except the actual hijackers who knew of the plot.”18 Since that time, federal officials have had to admit that they had received far more warnings prior to 9/11 than they had previously acknowledged. But these admissions, while raising the question of why further safety measures were not put in place, do not necessarily show that federal officials had specific foreknowledge of the attacks. One could still, as did the 9/11 Commission, accept the conclusion published at the end of 2002 by the Congressional Joint Inquiry, according to which “none of [the intelligence gathered by the US intelligence community] identified the time, place, and specific nature of the attacks that were planned for September 11, 2001.”20
Unfortunately for the official account, however, there are reports indicating that federal officials did have that very specific type of information. I will give two examples.
David Schippers and the FBI Agents: The first example involves attorney David Schippers, who had been the chief prosecutor for the impeachment of President Clinton. Two days after 9/11, Schippers declared that he had received warnings from FBI agents about the attacks six weeks earlier–warnings that included both the dates and the targets. These agents had come to him, Schippers said, because FBI headquarters had blocked their investigations and threatened them with prosecution if they went public with their information. They asked Schippers to use his influence to get the government to take action to prevent the attacks. Schippers was highly respected in Republican circles, especially because of his role in the impeachment of Clinton.
And yet, he reported, Attorney General Ashcroft repeatedly failed to return his calls.21
Schippers’ allegations about the FBI agents were corroborated in a story by William Norman Grigg called “Did We Know What Was Coming?”, which was published in The New American, a very conservative magazine. According to Grigg, the three FBI agents he interviewed told him
“that the information provided to Schippers was widely known within the Bureau before September 11th.”22
If Schippers, Grigg, and these agents are telling the truth, it would seem that when FBI Director Mueller claimed that the FBI had found no one in this country with advance knowledge of the plot, he was not telling the truth.
So I am to believe 6 weeks before the attacks the FBI knew all the details (and obviously plenty of people within the FBI knew the details) and because the Attorney General doesn't return his calls David Schippers just drops it? The FBI agents just drop it? What, they didn't think to copy, gather the damning evidence showing the forewarning and release it? David didn't think to call someone else in the 6 weeks leading up to the attack? Maybe tip off a journalist?
