Caught Red-Handed! A 1995 memo from 9/11 commission member Gorelick
National Review ^ | 13 Apr, 2004 | FBI

Posted on 04/14/2004 4:13:18 AM PDT by Remember_Salamis

Gorelick in 1995 recommended separating counterintelligence activities from "counter-criminal" activities Just declassified by Ashcroft. We're finally defending ourselves!

"FBI agents experienced in al-Qaida's mode of operation were shut out of the search for two men who turned out to be among the 19 Sept. 11 hijackers. The investigation was being handled as an intelligence matter; they were criminal agents and the FBI maintained a strict wall between the two.

One agent in particular took an interest in the case, but the report said an FBI coordinator - dubbed Jane in the report - essentially called him off. Jane "felt he had to destroy his copy of the lead because it contained information she believed could not be shared with any criminal agents," the report said."

Hmmmmmmmmmmm......an FBI coordinator dubbed Jane???? Is anyone thinking what I am thinking?

It's the "smoking gun" everybody says they've been looking for.

Now, to track Ms. Gorelick's business, professional and academic relationships back to the days when she first decided to become a tool in the hands of a tall man with a beard.

Folks have been referring to this policy in a wide variety of posts made on FR for years and years. No one could ever point to a single memorandum or other device that might have been used to put it in place, but here it is, classified SECRET. BTW, whatever happened to Ambassador Wilson and his wife? Why are they so quiet this week? Maybe Valrie had something to do with the CIA's side of the "Wall".

The 9/11 Commission is on the verge of becoming an utter failure. All it is doing is providing a forum for current and former officials to point fingers at each other. The only possible good that could come out of it is confirm that there were major structural obstacles to fighting terrorism. Those obstacles were largely eliminated in 2001 by the USA PATRIOT Act.

In their mindless resolve to bash Bush, the dems have put together a commission that will effectively confirm the necessity for the hated USA PATRIOT Act.

Then there's that other female friend of Janet Reno's who served as Secretary of the Energy Department. Remember her contribution to national security ~ she forbid color coding of identification documents folks who worked in highly classified installations had to wear and display.

Next thing you know you had Wen Ho Lee, et al, running away with the secrets.

Was this nonsense organized? Were Plame, Gorelick and Hazel O'Leary part of a team?

It's time for that 9/11 Commission to start asking some hard questions.

Caught Red-Handed!

So much potential meaning.

Blood red
Red socialism
Memo "read" outloud.
And (I hope) Gorelick will be "read out of the panel", just as Civil War officers were "Read out of the Army.

Discipline in the Civil War Armies

In those instances where a field officer was convicted of cowardice, his fate was nearly as ugly as an enlisted man's: he was publicly "read out of the army, his sword broken, his buttons stripped from his uniform; then, he was drummed out of camp, often with a sign around his neck that read "Coward."  Usually, in cases involving high disgrace, officers were expected to resign.

#5 in the memo gets to the heart of it.

And don't forget the ever-helpful Secretary of State, Madeline Albright, changing the official designation from "rogue states" to "states of concern".

Whatta bunch of idiots.

Can we do a pool on who it is who did the Wilson/Plame leak? I'll put big money on a certain Mr. Clarke.

Corrupt Democrat obstructing the 911 Commission:
"We Democrats own the Commission.
We Democrats own the schools and universities and the unions.
We Democrats own the media.
We Democrats even control the vote of the dead.
You bet that I personally dared refuse repeat DOJ requests for investigations of dangerous illegal aliens.
and I even personally arranged to stovepipe intelligence to make intraagency effective communication useless.
I even arranged for the illegal aliens who were felons to be voters for our Democratic party.
Ha. We even have John Aschroft's and each and every RINO's FBI file on our home and DNC computers.
So what are you wusses dare gonna do about it? Nothing. Now sit down
"

AMERICANS DEMAND AN INDEPENDENT 911 COMMISSION

YOU GOTTA FREEP THIS - Gorlick made the interagency Intel wall AND refused attempts by the DOJ to investigate aliens
yet NOW she "guards the guardians". This is corrupt.

BREAKING: Ashcroft has declassified a report Gorelick wrote several years ago
that established the wall that protects against Intel. agencies sharing information.
Background 911 Threads

TWO DAYS AGO

"Back in September 1994, I recommended to Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick
that the DoJ strengthen investigative powers against suspected 'undesirable aliens,' accelerating
deportation appeal proceedings and limiting U.S. participation in a visa waiver pilot program under which 9.5 million foreigners entered the U.S. in 1994."

[Former FBI Director Louis Freeh]

GORELICK SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE COMMISSION NOW
OR A WARNING LABEL HERALDING THE WILLFUL IMPROPRIETY SHOULD BE ON THE COVER

Making a mockery of justice, Jamie Gorelick,
1) who established the wall that protects against Intel.agencies sharing information
that created the 911 Atrocites, and

2) who REFUSED to take Former FBI Director Louis Freeh's
recommendation now Judges what happened. Isn't that special?


FREEP: Phone Commission at 202-331-4060
Email Commission at info@9-11commission.gov
put Thomas Kean in the subject line.

DEMAND THAT GORELICK BE REMOVED! FOR EITHER REASON #1 or #2 or both or other reasons suggested below.

info@9-11commission.gov

DONT FORGET - PUT THOMAS KEAN IN THE SUBJECT LINE
