I have always suspected that the real reason the “wall” was put in place was to cover up the flow of foreign money in the 1995-96 campaign cycle to the Democrats. 911 was an unintended consequence, but then the Clinton administration was always grossly incompetent.
This statement gave me a chill. This the first time I've heard it, and it has a frightening ring of truth to it. I'd damn near bet my pension that you're right. Of course, if it's true it will NEVER get out into the light of day, or if it does, it will be one of those "conspiracy nut" stories that no one believes.
I think your suspicions on why the ‘wall’ came to be are spot on. I think it might have gone ever deeper, like a preemptive strike to make sure NOTHING could be used to put two and two together and swerve into some illegal activity involving people in high places.
What a thorn in the flesh of America this lady, and dozens of other ‘public servants’, has been. Actually, she’s far beyond thorn in the flesh and is off the scale, somewhere well above boil on the butt.
This is a really scarythought, but probably true. It was such an outrage to have had Gorelick on the 9-11 commission.
Yes, the wall was put up to protect those 2 felons...
