An Aug. 6, 2001, Presidential Daily Briefing (PDB) has been pointed to by critics of the White House's pre-Sept. 11 response to al Qaeda. In her testimony, Rice verified the name of the report was, "Bin Laden Determined To Attack Inside The United States," but said there was nothing specific enough to act upon. In her April 8, 2004, testimony, Rice said: "The August 6th PDB was in response to questions of the president, and that since he asked that this be done. It was not a particular threat report. And there was historical information in there about various aspects of al Qaeda's operations. "Dick Clarke had told me, I think in a memorandum, I remember it as being only a line or two, that there were al Qaeda cells in the United States. "Now, the question is, what did we need to do about that? "And I also understood that that was what the FBI was doing, that the FBI was pursuing these al Qaeda cells. I believe in the August 6th memorandum it says that there were 70 full field investigations under way of these cells. And so there was no recommendation that we do something about this; the FBI was pursuing it. "I really don't remember, Commissioner, whether I discussed this with the president."
