Bush Administration blocks release of 911 research information

 

One document is called the PDB, the President’s Daily Brief. The congressional report contains details of PDBs provided to Bush (and top national- security aides) prior to 9-11. The PDBs included warnings about possible attacks by Al Qaeda. (One PDB was given at the presidential ranch in Crawford, Texas, on Aug. 6, and dealt with the possibility that Al Qaeda might hijack airplanes.) But an administration review committee overseen by CIA Director George Tenet has refused to declassify anything that even refers to the existence of PDBs—though they are described on the CIA’s own Web site (www.CIA.gov). A U.S. intelligence official said the review committee must consult with the White House before releasing anything. But the official denied charges by Florida Sen. Bob Graham, a Democratic presidential candidate, that Tenet’s review committee was covering up White House embarrassments. “We’re not playing politics,” the official says. “Our concern is national security.”

Al Qaeda's Summer Plans

 

The other hot-button issue is the Saudis, sources say. The report discusses evidence that individuals with Saudi government connections may have provided the hijackers aid. One of them is Omar al-Bayoumi, a Saudi student who helped two hijackers get apartments in San Diego. The administration won’t declassify references to al-Bayoumi even though, in response to a NEWSWEEK story, an FBI spokesman confirmed last November that he was being investigated. The report also includes interviews with U.S. officials about Saudi cooperation in the war on terror. Many were critical of the Saudis. The administration is declassifying only the response by former FBI director Louis Freeh praising Saudi assistance on the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing case. The U.S. intelligence official said that, in response to a letter cosigned by Graham and Rep. Porter Goss, House Intelligence Committee GOP chair, the review committee was considering allowing more portions of the report to become public.

my favorite one line fact from this whole shit, is that we spent 15X more investigating the explosion of the space shuttle, than we did on the investigation of 9.11.

thats hysterical to me. our government sucks so hard, its ridiculous. there was a decent show on abc last night, talking about how everythng the government told us, leading up to war, was a lie. of course they painted our government as inocent pawns, being manipulated by forces within iraq, but even still, it was a start.

 

and just for the record, the sources that provided the tips about al qaeda where israeli zionist spies operating in america. also for the record, no actual evidence of al qaeda existence in america has ever been found.

Joe was moderately successful in his career, but as he got older he was increasingly hampered by incredible headaches. When his personal hygiene and love life started to suffer, he sought medical help. After being referred from one specialist to another, he finally came across a doctor who solved the problem.

 

"The good news is I can cure your headaches. The bad news is that it will require castration. You have a very rare condition that causes your testicles to press up against the base of your spine. The pressure creates one hell of a headache. The only way to relieve the pressure is to remove the testicles," the doctor says.

 

Joe was shocked and depressed. He wondered if he has anything to live for. He couldn't concentrate long enough to answer, but decided he had no choice but to go under the knife.

 

When he left the hospital, his mind was clear, but he felt like he was missing an important part of himself. As he walked down the street, he realized that he felt like a different person. He could make a new beginning and live a new life.

 

He walked past a men's clothing store and thought, "That's what I need-a new suit." He entered the shop and told the salesman, "I'd like a new suit."

 

The salesman eyed him briefly and said, "Let's see, size 44 long?"

 

Joe laughed, "That's right, how did you know?"

 

"It's my job," the salesman said.

 

Joe tried on the suit. It fit perfectly. As Joe admired himself in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about a new shirt?"

 

Joe thought for a moment and then said, "Sure."

 

The salesman eyed Joe and said, "Let's see... 34 sleeve and sixteen and a half neck?"

 

Joe was surprised. "That's right, how did you know?" he asked.

 

"It's my job," the salesman said again.

 

Joe tried on the shirt, and it fit perfectly. As Joe adjusted the collar in the mirror, the salesman asked, "How about new shoes?"

 

Joe was on a roll and said, "Sure,"

 

The salesman eyed Joe's feet and said, "Let's see, size nine and a half

 

Joe was astonished. "That's right, how did you know?"

 

"It's my job," the salesman repeated.

 

Joe tried on the shoes and they fit perfectly. Joe walked comfortably around the shop and the salesman asked, "How about a new hat?"

 

Without hesitating, Joe said, "Sure."

 

The salesman eyed Joe's head and said, "Let's see, seven and five-eighths."

 

Joe was incredulous, "That's right, how did you know?" Joe asked.

 

"It's my job," the salesman laughed.

 

The hat fit perfectly. Joe was feeling great, when the salesman asked, "How about some new underwear?"

 

Joe thought for a second and said, "Sure."

 

The salesman stepped back, eyed Joe's waist and said, "Let's see, size thirty-six?"

 

Joe laughed, "No, I've worn size thirty-four since I was eighteen-years-old."

 

The salesman shook his head, "You can't wear a size 34. It would press your testicles up against the base of your spine and give you one hell of a headache."

Peter decided to go skiing with his buddy, Bob. They loaded up Peter's station wagon and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible blizzard. They pulled into a nearby farm house and asked the attractive lady of the house if they could spend the night.

 

"I'm recently widowed," she explained, "and I'm afraid the neighbors will talk if I let you stay in my house."

 

"Not to worry," Peter said, "we'll be happy to sleep in the barn."

 

Nine months later, Peter got a letter from the widow's attorney. He then went up to visit his friend Bob and said, "Bob, do you remember that good-looking widow at the farm we stayed at?"

 

"Yes, I do."

 

"Did you happen to get up in the middle of the night, go up to the house and have sex with her?"

 

"Yes, I have to admit that I did."

 

"Did you happen to use my name instead of telling her your name?"

 

Bob's face turned red and he said, "Yeah, I'm afraid I did."

 

"Well, thanks! She just died and left me everything!"
