MILITARY 'SPIED' ON RICE (More Able Danger leaks from Specter staffers)
NY Post ^ | 8/27/05 | NILES LATHEM

Cyber-sleuths working for a Pentagon intelligence unit that reportedly identified some of the 9/11 hijackers before the attack were fired by military officials, after they mistakenly pinpointed Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and other prominent Americans as potential security risks, The Post has learned.

The private contractors working for the counter-terrorism unit Able Danger lost their jobs in May 2000. The firings following a series of analyses that Pentagon lawyers feared were dangerously close to violating laws banning the military from spying on Americans, sources said.

The Pentagon canceled its contract with the private firm shortly after the analysts — who were working on identifying al Qaeda operatives — produced a particularly controversial chart on proliferation of sensitive technology to China, the sources said.

Sources said the private contractors, using sophisticated computer software that sifts through massive amounts of raw data to establish patterns, came up with a chart of Chinese strategic and business connections in the U.S.

The China chart was put together by James Smith, who confirmed yesterday that his contract with the military was canceled and he was fired from his company because the military brass became concerned about the focus on U.S. citizens.

"It was shut down in a matter of hours. The colonel said our service was no longer needed and told me: 'You just ended my career.' "

Years ago Former BLL CLINTON personal White House political advisor DICK MORRIS confirmed on National Talk Radio his boss' direct refusal of OSAMA offers from the Sudan in 1995 & 1996.

MONSOOR IJAZ publically called to be heard UNDER OATH before the 9/11 Commission about the OSAMA offers from the Sudan he helped negotiate that CLINTON refused during the 1990's. They finally heard from him in closed session, not under oath at their insistance.

Come on, 9/11 Investigating Committee, Come on.

If the Able Danger revelations force congress and/or MSM to look again at the 911 Commission we in the blogosphere will be able to point to a lot of interesting facts to be reevaluated.

But for us to make a difference it is necessary that we keep all of our i's dotted and t's crossed. So let us keep up the hunt but stay critical.

How could they be investigating "Secretary Rice" when Bush wasn't even elected yet?

Condi was at Stanford U. which has Clintonista donors who had high level dealings with the ChiComs.

The Rice association is a red herring by the Clintonistas to try to discredit divert attention from the other associations that were uncovered by Able Danger when they were investigating ChinaGate.

Don't fall for the Clintonista spin on Rice.

Aren't you interested in finding out who else was on their China chart?

Did you ever find out who else is on that chart with Rice?

Rice also was mentored and taught by MAddy Albright’s father, I think.
