I heard ABC will now run a constant disclaimer that this is a dramatization and that they made tiny changes but still left in all the Blame Clinton material.

Clinton never even knew about Able Danger finding Atta! Neo-cons in the DIA used The Wall and said Atta was a "US Person" and so Able Danger agents could not call the FBI in to arrest Atta.

The DIA neo-cons even made the Able Danger agents cover up Atta's face on a chart they made with a yellow sticky pad!

CLINTON NEVER TOLD ABOUT THE IDENTIFICATION OF ATTA AND AL-QUEDA ON AMERICAN SOIL:

You would have to believe that Schoomaker and Franks, later promoted heavily by the Neo-Cons, were so concerned about the rights of known terrorists that they actually destroyed the info on Atta and the Gang out of that worry. THe above shows The Wall would not even apply to a foreigner, identified as a terrorist whose IMMEDIATE ARREST was being recommended by the DIA Able Danger team! A secret Neo-Con cell left over from GHW Bush used The Wall as an excuse, similar to so many other Neo-Con Lies as they cheat their way through history.

Here is Roger Cressey, Clarke's DEPUTY, revealing Clarke and Clinton were never told about the ID of Atta:



BREITWEISER: If I could just jump in--if I could just jump in for a second, I particularly would like to ask Roger directly if he had known about this operation. Clearly, he and Richard Clarke were in a position at the time that this operation would have been put in place to know of such a thing.

And, Roger, I`m just wondering, did you know this?

CRESSEY: No, not at all. This was not shared with the National Security Council staff.

(CROSSTALK)

CRESSEY: And, Kristen, let me say that, if this information is correct, the real--the central issue is, why was it not shared with the counterterrorism policy community?

(CROSSTALK)

CRESSEY: Because that was where this could be acted upon.

GREGORY: Let me just interject for a second.

Roger, why wouldn`t that be something that would be shared with you when you were doing that kind of work at the time?

BREITWEISER: Right.

CRESSEY: If this was an internal DOD effort and it was being done by SOCOM, then it would be up to the Pentagon itself to determine what came into the policy-making realm.

(CROSSTALK)

CRESSEY: And, if this is accurate, then this is a case where it wasn`t shared.

GREGORY: Right.

(CROSSTALK)

GREGORY: Kristen, isn`t--isn`t--isn`t the sad truth about all of this, as Roger points out, there are so many clear, glaring examples of information not being shared from the left to the right hand of the government, that this would be just another incredibly sad and devastating example of that, or do you think this is something completely unique?

BREITWEISER: You know, David, I think this takes the threshold beyond another mishap.

You`ve got situations with the CIA failing to give information to the FBI. You have testimony from FBI agents saying that everything that possibly could have gone wrong went wrong. I think we`ve passed the point of this being an institutional failure. These were failures on behalf of certain individuals.

It is startling to me to think that, if this operation did in fact occur, that someone with Roger Cressey`s credentials in his position didn`t know about it. I would like to know what level of secrecy this operation was carried out under.
