Then, in 2001, the Department of Justice published a volume of her addresses as Assistant Attorney General.

Among Western governments, the United States has a leading role in this respect, with executive guidance coming most specifically in Presidential Decision Directive 63 (PDD-63) signed by President Clinton in April 1998.26 Entitled `Critical Infrastructure Protection', PDD-63 calls for a national effort to ensure the security of increasingly vulnerable and interconnected infrastructures in the United States, and emphasizes the importance of the partnership between the government and private sectors and the importance of international cooperation. PDD-63 also creates the National Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC) under the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The NIPC's mission is to act as the focal agency for gathering information on threats to infrastructure, providing timely warning of attacks, analysis and law enforcement investigation and response

For the United States, this public awareness campaign was initiated in July 1996, when the President's Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection (PCCIP) was established to develop a strategy for protecting and ensuring the continued operation of the nation's computer systems and networks, particularly those governing telecommunications, oil and gas, electricity, bank and financial operations, transportation, water supplies, critical emergency response and government. Executive Order No. 13010, 61 Fed. Reg. 37, 347 (1996). The PCCIP's chairman, Robert Marsh, along with his team of 18, which included former Deputy Attorney-General Jamie Gorelick and former Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee Sam Nunn, spent a year investigating the nation's vulnerabilities from computer attacks and formulating policy proposals for how the US was going to protect its infrastructure. In its October 1997 report, `Critical Foundations: Protecting Americas Infrastructures', the PCCIP described the potentially devastating implications of poor information security from a national perspective and discussed recommendations. While the Report of the PCCIP proposed numerous broad measures of infrastructure security such as IW early warning systems and a cooperative relationship between public and private sector entities, the report makes no mention of the international dimension of the problem of security in cyberspace. `Critical Foundations, Protecting America's Infrastructures' (Report of the President's Commission on Critical Infrastructure Protection, Washington, DC, October 1997), available at

Ms. Gorelick

Builds

Her

Dream Wall

Foreword by Osama bin Laden.
Afterword by Thomas Daschle.
Finalword by Hillary Clinton.

Critics are raving about the author's ability to maintain a truly palpable air of smiling lightheartedness, even after thousands of her fellow countrymen are killed.

Mystery lovers will be thrilled to learn if the main character will clean the wall to try to erase her fingerprints and those of her friends.

Publisher review from Amazon for "Destruction of Evidence":

Editorial Reviews The publisher, John Wiley & Sons A comprehensive survey and systematic analysis of the statutes and case law from all fifty states and the federal system governing destruction of evidence. Synthesizes the many doctrines regulating destruction of evidence and reviews the distinct bodies of law that have developed in the contexts of civil litigation, criminal prosecutions, and professional disciplinary proceedings. Considers implications for practice, including the problems of counseling clients on the legality of routine document management problems, as well as those arising in litigation when evidence has already been destroyed.

GORELICK TO LEAVE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT

* One of Ms. Gorelick's principal priorities was to help prepare the Justice Department to be able to respond effectively to the new challenges of transnational crime and terrorism. To do this, she forged new relationships and administrative protocols with the Departments of State, Treasury and Defense, and with the intelligence community.

(* Hence, her conflict of interest)

The Deputy Attorney General also worked with the Department's law enforcement components to better respond to crisis situations in the aftermath of the incidents at Ruby Ridge and Waco. After the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City in April 1995, she coordinated the government's overall response to the bombing and supervised the investigative and prosecutorial response to the crisis.

"In all of her work with law enforcement," Reno added, "Jamie displayed a sensitivity to the civil liberties of our citizens that gave comfort to ~~all of us who care deeply about the Constitution."~~terrorists.(My translation)

I feel your pain, but I can't help thinking that Gorelick hanging on may be a good thing. Let's face it, the 9/11 Commission was a clown college from the start. While she stays, Gorelick is a serious blow to their - for lack of a better word - 'Credibility'.

Granted, what you're saying is correct, but I can't help worrying about the mainstream media continually portraying this commission as legitimate. You and I are paying attention, but there are lots of sheeple asleep at the wheel. I want ALL media outlets to report GORELICK'S HUGE CONFLICT OF INTEREST! The only way that's gonna happen is for thousands to call, write and protest that Gorelick step down. I just want every FReeper to send a quick email or make a phone call. It all adds up....
