CIA Obstruction Stopped FBI from Uncovering 9/11

by Jane with The Jawa Report

Lawrence Wright is the author of The Looming Towers. This excellent article in the New Yorker focuses on the failure of the CIA to coordinate with the FBI in the USS Cole investigation, which lead to a failure to uncover the plans for 9/11.

Outside the scope of the article is the fact that all the Yemenis mentioned (and a dozen not mentioned) are free in Yemen including those convicted in Yemen of the Cole bombing. The exceptions are Nasheri, "Khalled" bin Attash and others who are in Gitmo. These Yemenis were in the inner core of bin Laden's group. Mostly everyone at the Malaysia meeting, where both the Cole and 9/11 were planned, are dead or in jail except for the Yemenis who were in Yemeni custody.

Although they are given benign descriptions in the MSM (and by the leftards) like Abu Jindal "driver" or al-Quso "failed photographer", these are persons involved in large-scale lethal al-Qaeda attacks against the US: the embassies, the Cole and 9/11. Factoring in the passage of a few years and protestations of rehabilitiation, statistically they continue to have a high likelihood of recidivism.

The New Yorker article is certainly worth a read.
