CIA: What did they know and when did they know it (Obama policy?)
abc ^ | 11/9/2009 | richard esposito

U.S. intelligence agencies were aware months ago that Army Major Nidal Hasan was attempting to make contact with people associated with al Qaeda, two American officials briefed on classified material in the case told ABC News.

It is not known whether the intelligence agencies informed the Army that one of its officers was seeking to connect with suspected al Qaeda figures, the officials said.

If the CIA knew and did not inform the army as a result of Leon Panetta or an Obama official changing their internal policies, Congress should demand Obama resign. He has failed in his most solemn duty, to protect the people of this country.

Bush, post 9/11 0 attacks on american soil. Obama 9 months, one attack already on American soil.

There could be a huge scandal and coverup here, let the facts fall where they may.

I suspect this is going to be very ugly when it all comes out in the wash. And it will all come out, slowing maybe, in dribbles maybe, but it all will come out.

“Bush, post 9/11 0 attacks on american soil. Obama 9 months, one attack already on American soil. “

This is, as far as I know, not true. There was an attempted bombing at OU a few years ago which the media buried almost as soon as it happened. There was a suspicious plane crash in queens ny shortly after 9/11. I think there were a few other items, but cannot recall. It is the clear policy of the US to not recognize publicly any terror attempt unless simply forced to by wild success, and even then deny it.

I hope that it WILL come out. I’m concerned that it may be surpressed.

If this is proven to be the case, then IMPEACH this marxist dog NOW! We live in dangerous times, and having a CIC who is incapable of protecting and defending our country is not acceptable...

This is a separate issue. The Army knew this guy was anti-American, pro-jihad and did nothing.

The CIA would be correct in keeping quite to see what channels of communication Al Queda was using.

“Hasan was attempting to make contact with people associated with al Qaeda”

Let me guess. Obama.

This is why 0 wants no one to jump to conclusions. He does not want a conclusion...Will the democrats permit a congressional investigation? Doubts.

In fact there was a WH investigation on Hasan himself before 0 made any statements on this when it happened.

This could very well be the start of “payback” from the CIA for the Agency being thrown under the bus by Obama, Panetta and Pelosi ...

I think the case for “connecting the dots” is a lot more compelling in this case than it was before 9/11. So where is the Dem/media outrage?????

Bush, post 9/11 0 attacks on american soil. Obama 9 months, one attack already on American soil.

This statement is not factually correct.

There have been many cases of Sudden Jihad Syndrome on American soil since 9/11. Most on Bush's watch, only because he was in office at the time.

A few - DC Snipers (one sentenced to die tomorrow), Utah mall (perp was shouting Allah Akbar), perp at El Al airlines in LA, perp at Jewish Center in Seattle (on trial this week). An SUV driven into a college campus with the intent to kill.

I'm certain there are more, but all had one thing in common. Islam.

What is apparently different in this case, is that we had a line on the guy ahead of time.

Did you also know the White House did not initially put their flags at half-staff on Friday.

Obamah has absolutely no respect for our military. ...none!

Doesn’t matter what they knew and when or what they know now. They won’t act on that information.
Information is useless unless it is used to actually prevent these terrorist acts.

What exactly are the dangers of telling the Islamofacist supporting, Maoist in the White House that there are Al Qaeda, foxes in the chicken coop?
After the last white house attack, who in the CIA is going to stick his neck out and get whacked for speaking up?
We have watched this develop since the early Clintoon follies at the Trade Center in 1994. I am afraid that this, like so much that is happening to the country is only a beginning.

If this investigation is in any way stonewalled by the current occupant of the WH, then impeachment proceedings should begin. What did Obama know and when did he know it???

God bless our troops. Harm’s way is now American soil. And the problem is bigger than Ft. Hood.

Oh, American intelligence agencies are aware of many things!

The CIA knows exactly where Obama was born, too. It would be ridiculous not to think so.
