Thanks for bringing us this chilling tale.
Where is the next Atta? Is he your neighbor? My neighbor??
Keep your eyes and ears open and report to whatever authority will do something about it.
Stay armed and stay vigilant.
Down with the incompetents!!
From the article:
Federal officials confirmed last week that a year before the attacks, a top-secret military intelligence team was following Atta and three suspected terrorists who turned out to be hijackers. The intelligence operatives tried to sound an alarm but were rebuffed by government lawyers who feared possible legal complications of using military spying techniques to keep tabs on foreign visitors in the United States with legal visas even though they might be terrorists.
A former member of the military intelligence team told me in an interview that it had enough data to raise suspicions. "But we were blocked from passing it to the FBI."
The connect-the-dots tracking by the team was so good that it even knew Atta conducted meetings with the three future hijackers. One of those meetings took place at the Wayne Inn. That's how close all this was - to us and to being solved, if only the information had been passed up the line to FBI agents or even to local cops.
This new piece of 9/11 history, revealed only last week by a Pennsylvania congressman and confirmed by two former members of the intelligence team, could turn out to be one of the most explosive revelations since the publication last summer of the 9/11 commission report.
The information not only undermines key commission findings that Atta and others were undetected, but it again raises a question that continues to haunt the 9/11 tragedy:
Why is our government so incompetent?
bttt
Breath taking....
After all, the Gorelick Wall was erected by the Clinton Justice Department on purpose. It wasn'ty an accident. And it wasn't an accident that the investigative power of the Executive was illegally seized by the Clintons.
There were (shall we say) a lot of troubling questions involving illegal campaign contributions, as well as troubling questions concerning the infilitration of Chinese spies at our nuclear laboratories. The Wall was erected in response to those "questions," as well as others.
No. It wasn't a mistake. It's wasn't a snafu. It was purposeful and malicious, and it lead to 9/11.
WHERE IS DRUDGE?
I read this article twice, but nowhere did I read Jamie Gorelick's name.

The fact that the MSM could continue on in this cover-up for Clinton's incompetence, just reinforces the idea that this country is flucked.
"The intellegence operatives tried to sound an alarm but were rebuffed by government lawyers who feared possible legal complications of using military spying techniques to keep tabs on foreign vistors in the United States....."
The grim realisation of the decision of President Clinton, to rebuff the Sudanese hits home. They actually wanted to hand over OBL to the US, Clinton refused- because "it had no legal precedence in international law" (rough quote).
It is IMHO the cancer of political correctness that is a major factor.
