Weldon: Pentagon Report a Whitewash

Representative Curt Weldon has called the Pentagon's report that the hijackers were not identified and tracked prior to 9/11 through the Able Danger program a "whitewash".

Newsmax ran this story on Friday:

WASHINGTON -– Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa., called a Pentagon report he had requested about pre-9/11 intelligence on al-Qaida operations in the United States "emphatically wrong" and a "whitewash," aimed at discrediting him as he faces the toughest re-election campaign of his career.

The report was leaked to the press on Wednesday, but Weldon was not briefed on its contents until Thursday afternoon, despite his instrumental role in requesting the investigation.

"What really upset me was they actually released information to the media before they even met with me or anyone else," Weldon told NewsMax on Thursday.

The report, conducted by the Pentagon Inspector General, investigated claims brought to Weldon's office by active duty military officers and other Defense Department officials about information they had developed on al-Qaida cells in the United States more than one year before the Sept. 11 attacks on America.

The data-mining operation was designated Able Danger, and the operation was run out of the U.S. Special Operations Command at Fort Belvoir, not far from the Pentagon. It was part of an experimental program to collect intelligence on terrorist networks and on illicit Chinese high-technology procurement efforts from open source material.

And that is why the program became such a threat, Weldon believes. "The database included information on Chinese procurement in the United States and the Clinton people didn't want this coming out, because there were a ton of Clinton names in there."

The Inspector General report confirmed information brought to Weldon by intelligence officials involved in the program that they had been ordered to destroy more than 2.5 terabytes of information in April/May 2000."

misdirection. weldon is

misdirection. weldon is still pushing al-qaeda and hijackers. next he'll be making fun of leisure suits. yawn

don't be so anxious for 9/11 revelation that you'll get behind stooges pretending to be on your side.

I support Weldon assertions....

Weldon's high profile dissention may result in the opening of a small crack in the official story. Small cracks can become gaping holes. Weldon may not endorse MIHOP, but his pestering could lead to new evidence helpful in the quest for 9/11 Truth.

Sure, let them take their time!

It's not like we'll be attacking Iran any time soon and having our reality changed on us again. Maybe we should tell everyone to slow down with all this 9/11 truth work, lest we scare good patriots like Weldon from leaking tiny little baby step distractions. Thanks Anonymous, but the facts are clear, and not saying so loud and clear is treason. Incrementalism is treason. Period.

This is not misdirection

you are all incorrect

if you took the time to study this you would see that Atta and the other alleged hijackers were clearly protected assets. we had a 2 star general intervening just to protect them.

this is not misdirection of linited hangout.

this is clearly consistent with MIHOP in that you can view Atta as a protected ASSET - a PATSY - a NON-al Qaeda asset pre-positioned like Oswald.

Grow up and stop dismissing important developments like this. Multiple high-ranking members of our military have had their acreers ruined because they are WHISTLEBLOWERS who are trying to wake people up to the fact that Atta was a PROTECTED Pentagon ASSET.

This is why I...

I support Weldon's assertions.

Anyway, this isn't about Weldon...

He's just the politician who for whatever reason, opportunistic or otherwise, decided to front for the Able Danger Five. This is about the assertions of Shaffer, Philpott and their cohorts. The odds that five of them are making this shit up in the face of career death are minuscule.

And again, surveillance of the hijackers/patsies before 9/11 is entirely compatible with inside job - in fact, it's a necessity! Furthermore, if this is really a truth movement, then compatibility with one's preferred conclusion is not the measure of whether something is true or not.

Could not agree

Could not agree more.

Cheers.

Weldon lost me when he

Weldon lost me when he claimed not too long time ago that Iraq had WMDs...

exactly. and didnt he say

Dean applauds Clinton for standing up to 'Fox News' right-wing bullying and propaganda machine'

In a statement sent to RAW STORY, Dean declares that "President Clinton did exactly what Democrats need to do in this election. Democrats need to stand up to the right-wing propaganda machine and tell the truth."

Weldon and the Pentagon should have let sleeping dogs lie.

new video

Another new video of the plane crashing into tower 2. You can stop the tape at 23 seconds to get a better view of the plane.

The more people speak of a cover-up, the more evidence will be brought forward. There are probably hundreds of 'never before seen' videos that show important images, possibly images that could be used as evidence. I'm sure there are even videos that tourists have taken on the days prior to 9/11 of suspicious activity in and around the towers, but they are not aware they have it.

CGI!!!! hahahaha, i wonder
