December 22, 2001 -- WASHINGTON - The FBI was warned in August by a Minnesota flight instructor that Zacarias Moussaoui, the suspected "20th hijacker," might have been planning to use a jetliner as a weapon, a newspaper reports.

David Schippers represents several FBI agents who state that they are not being permitted to arrest certain terrorists. The agents and Jayna Davis had knowledge of the 9/11 attacks on Manhattan, prior to the attack, and attempted to provide that information to Attorney General John Ashcroft, but were unable to get past staffers and Ashcroft did not return calls to Schippers. Currently, David Schippers wants to make this information available to members of Congress. However, the Justice Dept. would not permit them to testify about what they know.

Thank you, thank you, thank you... for your timely reply #2.

There is a lawsuit about this pending against the DOJ and FBI by an active FBI agent being represented by Schippers and Judicial Watch.

Uncle Bill, it is amazing how you are able to stay on top of, particpate in and contribute to so many different important issues of our times.

You are truly a watchman on the wall.

Are you sure you do not have a staff that helps you with this? Do you ever sleep?

I will repeat, Uncle Bill is a treasure to the FreeRepublic and to our county.
