National Security: The knowledge that Mohammed Atta was affiliated with al-Qaida was known at least a year before Sept. 11, but political correctness and walls between agencies built by Democrats kept it a secret.
Curt Weldon, R-Pa..."Two weeks after 9-11, my friends from the Army's information dominance center, in cooperation with special ops, brought me...this chart of al-Qaida...Mohammed Atta."
Lee Hamilton, co-chair of the 9-11 commission, said the commission "did not learn of any U.S. government knowledge prior to 9-11 of surveillance of Mohammed Atta or of his cell . . . Had we learned of it, obviously it would've been a major focus of our investigation."
But they did learn of it. The New York Times reports that the 9-11 commission staff had the Able Danger data...
Commission staffers plan a trip to the National Archives to retrieve their notes on Able Danger's findings...where Clinton National Security Adviser Sandy Berger was caught stuffing classified documents about terrorist threats down his pants, presumably to remove them from public scrutiny.
And this is the same commission that included Jamie Gorelick, a deputy attorney general in the Clinton Justice Department...architect of the wall between intel and law enforcement, making "connecting the dots" before 9-11 a virtual impossibility.
..."single greatest structural cause" for 9-11, which was "the wall that segregated criminal investigators and intelligence agents."
...Maybe the focus will shift from how George Bush could have prevented 9-11 in his eight months in office to what Bill Clinton failed to do in eight years.
And maybe...the whiners who fight on fears that swat teams will descend on public libraries renewal of the Patriot Act to prevent the next Atta from flying a plane into a building, will just shut up, let us collect the dots and connect them.

Repeat 10,000,000 more times and call me in the morning.
But they did learn of it. The New York Times reports that the 9-11 commission staff had the Able Danger data...

Heads had better roll....lots of them.
gaining steam!!!! yee haw!
While the Democrats & MSM are busily engaged in the spinning of conspiracy theories about this & that, they have missed the biggest one of all -- the conspiracy to cleanse the Clinton Administration of all culpability in the 9/11 attacks. This effort will continues since Hillary is definitely running. So expect the MSM to continue to contort themselves in an effort to keep her candidacy viable.
The Democrats are more into picking on a political operative like Rove than they are in seeking the answers about 9-11. Obviously.
bttt
I wonder how much has disappeared, or has been changed, in the tons of documents sent to little Rock for Slicks Library? I'll bet the cleansing going on there would shame a laudermat.
Sandy Berger had better be given a long prison sentence next month. (Bush's DoJ is recommending a lenient sentence, what a surprise).
These new revelations that are coming to light is going to incriminate the Clintons, the Democrats, and hopefully shut up the supposed " 9/11 conspiracy theorist " that 9/11 was planned and was orchestrated by the Bush administration, and make Micheal Moore's BS political propaganda movie even more irreverent.
If this little scandal gets swept away and goes nowhere, I'm going to de-register myself from ever voting again because all those who say "They're all the same" will be right.
I have no doubt that Hillary knew also of this report from Operation Able Danger " ... and she should be questioned over and over and over and over about it.
Who wants to wager when Brian Williams or that turd, Chrissy Matthews touches this one.
They will cover this story when the Democrats are ready to try to destroy the story.
I just heard on Fox the 9-11 commission will release a statement soon on this...the excuse is they were told "after the report" was at the printers and the information would not have changed the report much...the whitewashing continues....
Pretty sad when that is the truth about the media that is supposed to look out for us.
