The simple explanation for the obvious administration coverup is that The Sandyman has some serious leverage over Bush in this affair. I don't know what that leverage is but the odds are that it involves the Clinton machine and that there is information in the Clinton's hands that Bush simply was not willing to see let out. I can't prove this but if true, it explains everything about this screwed up case.
Weldon said that in September 2000, the unit recommended on three separate occasions that its information on the hijackers be given to the FBI “so they could bring that cell in and take out the terrorists.” However, Weldon said Pentagon lawyers rejected the recommendation, arguing that Atta and the others were in the country legally so information on them could not be shared with law enforcement.
“Lawyers within the administration — and we’re talking about the Clinton administration, not the Bush administration — said ‘you can’t do it,’” and put post-its over Atta’s face, Weldon said. “They said they were concerned about the political fallout that occurred after Waco … and the Branch Davidians.”
