Able Danger Cover-Up ?
What an interesting development on Aug 17. Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer had worked on the intelligence gathering system called Able Danger. He stated on Wednesday that in 2000 their work produced the name of Mohamed Atta and others involved in the 9/11 attack. Atta was the Egyptian ringleader . The original report was highly classified. The names and the report were not shown to the 9/11 Commission in 2004 which was led by Thomas Kean.
Was there a cover-up? A highly classified document in 2000 having Atta's name just doesn't get overlooked. The question is who and why was there a cover-up? There are two possible explanations. The first could be a cover-up based on embarrassment of Pentagon personnel- Atta identified but no follow-up. Or the second could be that the same people who were rushing to find reasons to do an Iraq invasion saw the gathering threat of a hostile act by Atta and Al-Qaeda as a means to their end.
What has Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith have say ?
