CIA Given Unprecendented Domestic Law Enforcement Access by New Anti-Terror Law

......

Known as the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the law empowers the government to shift the primary mission of the FBI from solving crimes to gathering domestic intelligence. In addition, the Treasury Department has been charged with building a financial intelligence-gathering system whose data can be accessed by the CIA

Most significantly, the CIA will have the authority for the first time to influence FBI surveillance operations inside the United States and to obtain evidence gathered by federal grand juries and criminal wiretaps.

They're both banned now

Did you ever read a specific reason from anyone as to why Michael Rivero was banned. He put a lot quality work ito the OKC investigation.

Prolly just stopped-clock syndrome.

DCI is a Republican . . . . . oops, forgot . . . appointed by Clinton

But the FBI Direcor is a Republican . . . . . . oops, forgot . . . . . . Clinton appointee too. Well, at least the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs is a Republican . . . . . . oops, forgot.

Say, anybody know where John Negroponte, Lee Radek, Glen Fine or Norman Minetta are these days? Must be out to pasture, now that Billy Jeff is gone. How 'bout Joe Albaugh . . . . . you know, that guy who used to work for Jackson Stephens, Clintons biggest financial backer? What's ole Joe doin'?

Shore is comforting to see that "the adults are in charge," ain't it?

I believe he unloaded on the Evil Jews without differentiating between them and good folks. Not sure myself, but that's what I gathered from other reading.

Israel is NOT loaded with saints, any more than our Nation, and that especially goes for their Mossad. They're running parallel with our CIA as far as destruction of God-Fearing Nations, Ours and Theirs.

Thanks for the information.

One must understand that we have terrorists and spies working within our government. To think otherwise is to be kidding yourself. And as bizarre as it sounds it is true. Some people will do anything for money. Even if it involves selling their country out to the Com-Chi's. Instead of the tune being named "For the love of Money" it should be "For the Blood of Money".

As for the CIA and the Delta Force, don't doubt anything as it was the CIA involved in the Mena Connection cocaine operation gone sour and two young teenage boys death which will remain a mystery during Clinton's time as Governor of Arkansas. The CIA is capable of anything. George Bush Sr., knows this very well as he was head of the CIA. (Not knocking him either).

As for the CIA knowing anything about the recent attack on the WTC, well I think this goes beyond the CIA! This was definitely planned by those of the blue blood types who want to further their agenda to bring chaos to establish their twisted New World Order. The CIA is just another paramilitary operation working in cohorts with FEMA.

Good post, good comments. We don't know who the AntiChrist is, we don't know when he will appear, we do know that he will use these type tactics.

Both Rivero and A+Bert have been missing for a loooong time. I suspect something sinister is afoot.

Crap, I got an error trying to put A+Bert in the To: line.

This is why I call it the GESTAPO law and I've been accused of being an anarchist or a libertarian by a couple of clowns on this forum. Why can't people see the POTENTIAL future danger in this law?
BTW, I support Pres. Bush's efforts in this "police action"

Can only hope this isn't another 'foot in the door' the way the property confiscation of drug lords turned out to be. That law was enacted to strip drug lords of property and money gained by large-scale drug sales.

It rained down on anyone who committed the most minor of crimes. There was a report of a man who solicited a prostitute and his vehicle was legally confiscated because he was in his vehicle while attempting to procure the services of a street prostitute.

In my county, law enforcement has repeatedly confiscated the vehicles of small time drug dealers. These people were not the millionaire drug dealers this law was created for. Homes have been confiscated under this law because some small-time criminal sold a few ounces of marijuana from his house.

So now that we have given broader powers to the CIA to fight terrorism and mass murder, will they stop there?

"One must understand that we have terrorists and spies working within our government."

I, for one, have never argued otherwise...MUD

"This anthrax scare is coming at a VERY convenient time for this government power grab."

It certainly is.
And it's not as though the fed has NOT been involved in "sting" operations in the past.
It is more appropriate than ever to be keeping an eye on them...
even though many sheeple want to point the "anti-American" finger at anyone who tries to do so.
Blind trust in ANY politician is the only thing that is anti-American.

"In 1977, Chinese agent, Mochtar Riady an Indonesian billionaire came to Arkansas. Mochtar Riady is an ethnic Chinese banker in Jakarta. He started his financial empire with gun and drug running in the East Indies before World War II. Riady wants to get a financial base started in this country and looks for a bank to purchase. He seeks the help of Jackson Stephens to act as his agent. A deal ensued in which Riady would purchase a 30% share of the National Bank of Georgia from (Carter Administration) Burt Lance. At the same time, Stephens also brokered the arrival of BCCI to this country and steered their founder, Hassan Abedi, to Burt Lance. Under pressure from Chinese operatives, Riady backs out of the deal and a BCCI front man buys the shares. Hassan Abedi went on to secretly take over the bank shares that would lead to the BCCI scandal to be prosecuted in the US. James Riady, Mochtar's son, was taken on as an intern by Jackson Stephens to learn the world of finance. Later he would say that he was sponsored by Bill Clinton. In 1983, we find Mochtar Riady back in Little Rock. This time he forms The Lippo Finance & Investment Group. Chinese agent Riady, unbelievably, hires Jimmy Carter's former SBA director, Vernon Weaver, to chair his firm. This is launched with the aid of a $2 million loan guaranteed by the SBA! Bill Clinton was used a character reference to help the the loan. The Lippo Group makes there first loan to Little Rock Chinese restaurant owner, Charlie Trie. Trie would later be sought as a money launderer in Clinton's legal fund and would hide out in Beijing, China."

Anybody who argues that Bill Clinton should not be Indicted and Convicted of TREASON and--probably--given the Rosenberg Treatment is displaying a Willful Ignorance that threatens the longevity of The Land of the FRee and The Home of the Brave!!!! IMHO, of course.

Good stuff, Ms. Jade, you Commie Sympathizer, you!!!

Howdy to you, ma'am...MUD

And a good evening to you, Mudboy! : )

Now that you bring up James Riady and his billionare family, I witnessed James getting off free from a federal court hearing in downtown L.A. federal court earlier this year regarding his illigal political contributions to the Clintons.

From your post here I didn't realize how far back (Little Rock, Arkansas) the Riady family has been involved in this corruption.
