Ben-Veniste was a member (2002) of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States (or "9/11 Commission"), where he developed a reputation for asking tough questions and demanding access to sensitive documents, although in some circles he was accused of grandstanding.[5] His interrogation of U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was contentious, for example over an article in the August 6, 2001 President's Daily Brief: "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the United States."
