How does the evidence that the US warned the Taliban that they would be attacked in October fit in with this?

****************
Three American officials: Tom Simmons (former U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan), Karl Inderfurth (former Assistant Secretary of State for South Asian affairs) and Lee Coldren (former State Department expert on South Asia), meet with Taliban representatives in Berlin and tell them that the U.S. is planning military strikes against Afghanistan in October. Also present are Russian and German intelligence officers who confirm the threat. [Source: The Guardian, September 22, 2001; the BBC, September 18, 2001.]

Was it these warnings that actually sparked off the attacks on Sept. 11th? Are the US feeling a little stupid right now?
