Congressman: U.S. Intel Knew 9/11 Plotters

New York Post ^ | August 9, 2005 | Kimberly Hefling

...Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa. and vice chairman of the House Armed Services and Homeland Security committees, said Tuesday the men were identified in 1999 by a classified military intelligence unit known as "Able Danger." If true, that's an earlier link to al-Qaida than any previously disclosed intelligence about Atta.

Sept. 11 commission co-chairman Lee Hamilton said Tuesday that Weldon's information, which the congressman said came from multiple intelligence sources, warrants a review. He said he hoped the panel could issue a statement on its findings by the end of the week...

More BS from the BS Commission.

Well...if the intelligence committee did know about Atta and al Qaeda a full year before the 9/11 attacks and did nothing, then there can be no doubt that the entire fault for the Intelligence community's not doing anything rests squarely on the Philanderer-in-Chief, Billy Jeff Clinton.

Speaking of Berger and Weldon:

What did Hillary know, and when did she know it? Hmmmmm?

However, Weldon said Pentagon lawyers rejected the recommendation because they said Atta and the others were in the country legally so information on them could not be shared with law enforcement.

Thanks for that link.

Senator Weldon's book "Countdown to Terror" lays it all out including what he calls the incompetence of the CIA. This book will be discredited by the Left and ignored.

It won't be the first.

"The 9/11 commission did not learn of any U.S. government knowledge prior to 9/11 of surveillance of Mohammed Atta or of his cell," said Hamilton

Speaking of BS...CBS said this morning in a radio news report that Hamilton said there was no evidence of this...pure spin on their part of his comments. I, of course, started screaming at the radio again : )
