WASHINGTON - A top-secret military program set up six years ago to probe the Al-Qaida terrorist network is provoking fierce new debate about the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Of course you realize, the Minneapolis Star and Sickle's real purpose is to say "the military KNEW!!! and they let it happen, and Bush knew, and Halliburton..."

"Fierce new debate"?

"Fierce sweeping under the rug" would be more like it.

If the real story comes out, the Clinton legacy is forever changed. This includes Hillary's aspirations in 2008.

If anything, it'll be twisted into criticism "not unfamiliar", if you know what I mean.

I agree, however, the MSM will simply go to the old chorus of "Bush knew! He let 9/11 happen to make Halliburton rich!" The fact that the terrorists entered the country (and were identified as terrorists) during Bubba's management won't matter. The MSM and the DU/MoreOn crowd will come out, marching in lockstep, demanding Bush's impeachment.

The actor James Wood knew. He tried to tell the authorities what he witnessed.

The question is - why didn't he do more??????

How many shares of Haliburton does he own?????

I often wondered about pilot security before 9/11. The events shocked me but did not surprise me that much. Our laxity shocked me.

Changed how? He has no legacy. His only legacy is oral sex in the Office Of The President, forever disgracing himself, and his apologist administration.

John Kerry knew before 9/11 about the laxity at airports, he had a terrorism expert notify him about Boston airport and even told Kerry what needed changed and that it was gonn happen...

Of course for Kerry to do anything, it would have required actual WORK...so nothing became of it...

BUT, even during Clinton's administration, Kerry claimed to be involved in making our country safe from terrorists...lol

Clintoon is a laughing stock stooge in every capital in the world. There is no leader in the world that would spit/shit on his grave. He is the the masturbatory residue on the blue dress of his persidency!

Because of his inaction, 3000 people were killed on 9/11, over 2000 American Warriors are dead and countless Iraqis are dead or wounded. This story needs to come out and the perps need to be tried and punished. How about looking into the airport security headed by the former vice president? The whole damned thing stinks to high heaven and IMO the 9/11 commission, who had little to do but political pontification is guilty of covering up the Able Danger.
Then there's the attacks on LTC Shaffer. A decorated soldier who some desk driver at the Pentagon is criticizing for "stealing" some pens when he was a kid. Let's get real here. Shaffer had his security clearance revoked for that and Sandy Berger got off on the national archives fiasco? Just what the hell is going on here?

>>>Turning blue.<<<

Write somebody, anybody - it helps. I wrote the President, Cheney and the RNC Chair Mehlman about the need to have open hearings on Able Danger. Told them to support Curt Weldon's efforts.

It makes you feel better.....if enough of us do it, they will have to listen. The potential revelations in the Able Danger story could send several Clinton-WOT-9/11-Complicity-Coverup artists to jail.

It will be a hell of a fight - but it must be won!
