But early versions of the documentary script, Lance said, made it look just the opposite. FBI agents and Justice Department officials were interviewed sympathetically and at length, he said. "The overwhelming impression was that the FBI was on top of Ali Mohamed," Lance said. "It was outrageous ... They hijacked my research and watered down key findings in order to appease some prominent feds."

-Welcome to the Fed, if you screw up your protected.

So what are the names of the producers?

"The FBI allowed the chief spy for al-Qaida to operate right under their noses," Lance said. "They let him plan the bombings of the embassies in Africa right under their noses. Two hundred twenty-four people were killed and more than 4,000 wounded because of their negligence."

Wasn't there a report the day 9/11 happened that the secret service had feared that there was a possible "inside threat"?

[mewzilla]

Well, I took a quick look and I can't find out who produced this thing. If someone does find out, please ping me.

[pgyanke]

...and still won't let him see the final documentary unless he signs what they call a "non-disparagement agreement."

I'd call that a bad sign...

[mewzilla]

I recall hearing something along the lines, though I can't remember the source.

And FWIW, I'd really like to find out who produced and paid for this. If Lance's book was whitewashed, I'd like to know who's responsible.

Thanks! But oddly enough that doesn't contain any info on who's responsible for the program. Now I'm really getting curious...

Hmmmmm ..?? Sounds like the "Shadow Govt" in the intel organizations is trying to hide their complicity.

Just more of the Clinton hold-overs covering their behinds ..??
