Did We Know About Mohamed Atta?
Investor's Business Daily ^ | October 5, 2010 | IBD Editorial Staff

Posted on 10/05/2010 7:26:25 PM PDT by raptor22

9/11: Why would the Pentagon buy and destroy copies of a book by a former Army intelligence officer? Could it be perhaps because it contained information on how the 9/11 attacks might have been prevented?

The impulse to dismiss this as just another conspiracy theory is overwhelming. Yet the fact is that the Pentagon bought and destroyed 10,000 copies of a book, "Operation Dark Heart," written by Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer, a Bronze Star recipient and career Army intelligence officer, that contained a chapter on a pre-9/11 intelligence operation, Able Danger.

In a statement, the Pentagon said it "decided to purchase copies of the first printing because they contained information which could cause damage to national security." The books were destroyed on Sept. 20.

Curt Weldon was after this hard. The powers that be made sure he lost his seat in Congress

I wonder what a copy of that book would go for, assuming one might be available?

Yes 100% we knew.

Jamie S. Gorelick made sure he was protected.

She helped them kill 2,977 people .

Something is obviously very very sensitive to be so blatantly necessary to be kept from our eyes.

This was during the Bubba admin, right? Of course they covered it up. Although they may try to blame Bush pre administration as blaming him post administration has about run out of gas.

Absolutely true.

It's not often that one person plays key roles in two -- count 'em, two -- trillion-dollar disasters. Welcome, my friends, to the world of well-connected Democrat Jamie Gorelick.

The 9/11 disaster was 2,977 lives which is not measured in $.

I would suggest that the IBD Editorial Staff do a keyword search of FR with “abledanger”. Go back to the beginning, spend a couple of weeks reading it all and get caught-up.

It is beyond sickening and revolting for our
DOD to create this coverup.
