I look forward to hearing the thoughts of Freepers on my theories.

Also, if you care about Able Danger, I would urge you to help reelect Congressman Weldon.

So too was this the reason for the Gorelick Wall, IMHO. Well done...

I heard Weldon mention something about this Chinese procurement matter yesterday during the hearing and he said that some well known D.C. names cropped up and they would be embarrassed and that is his theory why AD was shut down.

If I didn't have reason to hate and despise William the Impeached before, I most certainly do now.

In short, Able Danger was a collateral victim of the successes of the data mining efforts being performed by LIWA. 9/11 could have been prevented if the Clinton Administration had not disbanded Able Danger and LIWA, which it did to cover up very embarrassing information that the data mining efforts of LIWA were uncovering in regards to China.

Just like the Barrett Report - the Clintons are truly the gift that keeps on giving.

The country is dead and dying when things like Able Danger are given little or no light.

I feel very sorry for our younger citizens. Their country needs resuscitation.

But it really is all about the planned one world order.

Are there any more open hearings scheduled to be held, or was yesterday pretty much it?

Yes, Bernard Schwartz, former Chairmam of defense contractor Loral, was instrumental in having many of these export ruels relaxed. If you look at the chart devleoped by LIWA, Loral, along with defense ocntractor Hughes were prominently figured. This couldn't have made Schwartz, or the Clinton Administration -- to whom he had given $1 million in campign contributions -- very happy. I'm sure it had something to do with LIWA and Able Danger ultimately being disbanded.

This whole thing is a putrid example of how the democrats can never be trusted with national security. They are traitors thru and thru.

Lets be honest about Able Danger...it was a giant funnel, and it drug in tons of information...some relating to Ossama and the Jihad boys...some relating to Chinese technology transfer...some relating to "bribes" given to lobbyists and politicans (state, federal, etc)...and some related to large cash flow outside of the US (if you are a international business...you haul cash from one market to another, and hide it from the real front company in the US & IRS).

Once the Clintonites...and even members of the senate realized the impact of this project and just how capable the funnel could be...it became a dangerous weapon. A guy in the CIA could turn info to the IRS and suddenly a company owed an additional $500 million on real taxes and income. I doubt seriously that the government can allow Able Danger to be brought back, and if so, there have to be exteme limits as to what they can gather against.

...Why did the Cox Commission ignore this data? Because it could have caused embarrassing questions for Republicans as well as Democrats....

When the republicans refused to stand up for America and went along with the fatslut scandal, our nation was damaged beyond repair. The flow of Chinese money into the pockets of our politicians is a brilliant act of assymetrical warfare on the part of the Chinese.

In the long run it will be the root of our demise.

Amazing that not one word of the hearings made it to the newswires..at least not here in SE Pa.


That won't stop the dogged interest of this reader nor will it deter Weldon.
