But even that so-called connection is pure speculation to a connection to Able Danger. If this as big as purported, get a nice, big juicy leak to Fox, and really start to name names.
This little strip tease is starting to lose my interest. If you wait for Congress to schedule hearings for this, you'll wait for ever. Drop names, leak (real) info, not suggestive nonsense, or simply get the whole group of informants together and spill the beans. But "connections" to this or that are meaningless.
NSA's United States Signals Intelligence Directive 18 (USSID 18) strictly prohibits the interception or collection of information about "..US persons, entities, corporations or organizations..." without explicit written legal permission from the Attorney General of the United States. The Supreme Court has ruled that intelligence agencies cannot conduct surveillance against American citizens.Therefore, if Clarke determined that the AD operation was essentially spying on U.S. citizens, as the articles pertaining to this operation have suggested, he would have been the one to order the papers destroyed.
