I just read over the first part of Mark Rossini's answers to Undicisettembre.
First I have been on the phone with Mark, and had a preliminary conversation with him over what had happened that had allowed the 9/11 attacks to take place. Unfortunately I did not have enough time to go over every detail of what had allowed the attacks on 9/11 to take place. Second, while his account of his interaction with CIA agents at the bin Laden unit at the CIA with respect to Tom Wilshire blocking FBI Agent Dog Miller's cable on Mihdhar back to the FBI is accurate, some of his other accounts have errors. One example is his account of the June 11 2001 meeting at the New York FBI field office. This was the meeting set up by FBI Agent Dina Corsi, between her, CIA officer Clarke Shannon, FBI Agent Margaret Gillespie, working with Shannon at the CIA bin Laden unit, and FBI Agent Steve Bongardt and his team of Cole bombing investigators.
"CIA/CTC representatives, along with an FBIHQ analyst, came up to FBI NY on or about June 11, 2001 and had a meeting (which I was not invited to) with my assigned squad, I-49, and requested help in finding the terrorists who attended the terror summit in Malaysia."
I don’t know where Mark came up with CIA/CTC representatives, along with an FBIHQ analyst requested help in finding the terrorists who attended the terror summit in Malaysia. There is not the slightest evidence or record anywhere that the CIA agents and FBI HQs’ agents at this meeting “ever requested any help in finding the terrorists” who had attended the terror summit in Malaysia. There are in fact three records of this meeting, the Joint Inquiry of the House and the Senate, the account in the DOJ IG report and the account in Lawrence Wright’s, Looming Tower, and in the July 10-17, 2006 issue of the New Yorker, “The Agent who almost stopped the attacks on 9/11”, Ali Soufan, who was FBI Agent Steve Bongardt's boss.
At the September 20, 2002, public hearing of the Joint Inquiry of the House and the Senate, Senator Carl Levin, asked CIA Officer Tom Wilshire, who was hidden behind a screen so no one could later identify him, why CIA Officer Clarke Shannon, who was at that June 11, 2001, meeting in New York City with FBI Agent Steve Bongardt, did not give the information he had on Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi, to Bongardt. Bongardt in fact was hiding behind another screen at that same meeting, also answering questions. Senator Levin stated that he knew of no law, no rule, no regulations that prevented Shannon from giving the information he had to Bongardt, even after Bongardt directly asked Shannon, who are these people, in the three photos from Kuala Lumpur, and why are you, the CIA surveilling them. And what have these people got to do with the Cole bombing, since Bongardt was part of the FBI Cole bombing investigation, and why were you, the CIA asking us, the FBI Cole bombing investigators, if we recognize any of these people in these photos.
At the time of this meeting the CIA knew that al Qaeda terrorist, Nawaf al-Hazmi was already inside of the US, knew al Qaeda terrorist, Khalid al-Mihdhar had a multi-entry visa for the US and knew a huge al Qaeda terrorist attack was likely aimed right at the US. Tom Wilshire answered Senator Levin’s question, as to why CIA officer Clarke Shannon did not give the information he had to FBI Agent Steve Bongardt. Wilshire stated that first this information could not be given to FBI Agent Steve Bongardt or his team unless this meeting had been specifically set up to pass this information to the FBI, and second Shannon could not pass this information to the FBI without prior permission from the CIA which he did not have. In effect, Wilshire had just admitted that the CIA had withheld material information in a criminal conspiracy, from the FBI criminal investigation of the Cole bombing. Wilshire, admitted that the CIA had just committed in fact a major Federal criminal felony. No law allows even the CIA from committing this major Federal felony, yet no one was indicted for this horrific crime, a crime which in fact had hidden information from the FBI that ultimately allowed the al Qaeda terrorists to murder almost 3000 people.
Rossini continues with:
“And "Moreover, in the aforementioned meeting (attended by CIA, and the FBI’s Dina Corsi), the CIA would not tell the assembled FBI agents, nor then AUSA Dave Kelly (who left the meeting early due to the hostile atmosphere), why finding these men was so important (hence SA Steve Bongardt’s famous email to Corsi, wherein he warns her of the consequences that “—someday someone will die—"). Dina did not know at all about the recruitment effort. Dina just knew that the methodology by which the CIA knew about these terrorists was via an “intelligence method” (which Dina erroneously and innocently thought was protected then by the “wall”)."
This paragraph has several errors. First Bongardt’s quote that “—someday someone will die—“, had nothing to do with this meeting but was in email Bongardt sent back to Corsi on August 29, 2001, after she had claimed that the NSLU had told her, that New York agent Steve Bongardt, could have nothing to do with any investigation of Mihdhar, finally shutting down his criminal investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi. This was a complete lie, in fact the NSLU attorney that Corsi had consulted, Sherri Sabol, told Corsi on August 28, 2001, that since the NSA cable in her EC to start an investigation for Mihdhar and Hazmi had no connection to any FISA warrant, Bongardt could start or take part in any investigation for Mihdhar and Hazmi that he wanted. Further more, Corsi had already been been given approval by the NSA, to pass this NSA cable, to FBI Agent Steve Bongardt on August 27, 2001, a fact that Corsi withheld from Attorney Sherri Sabol.
Further, when Rossini states that “Dina just knew that the methodology by which the CIA knew about these terrorists was via an “intelligence method” (which Dina erroneously and innocently thought was protected then by the “wall”)." this is also in error. On August 29, 2001, Corsi in email to Steve Bongardt stated that “if at such time as evidence is developed of a substantial Federal crime [by Mihdhar and Hazmi], that evidence will be passed over the wall per the proper procedures for follow up criminal investigation [by your FBI criminal investigators].
But Corsi admitted to DOJ IG investigators that she knew on August 22, 2001 , according to the DOJ IG report, that Mihdhar and Hazmi had taken part in the planning of the Cole bombing at the Kuala Lumpur al Qaeda planning meeting, knew that this was in fact a substantial Federal crime, and even knew that both the CIA and FBI HQ’s were keeping this horrific information secret from FBI Agent Steve Bongardt and his team of Cole bombing investigators so they would not have the probable caused they needed and in fact required to start any criminal investigation for Mihdhar and Hazmi. There was nothing innocent at all about Corsi. She along with the top CIA managers and many people at FBI HQ’s had deliberately allowed the al Qaeda terrorists to murder almost 3000 people on 9/11.
Rossini goes on to say that:, “Lastly, when the Deputy Chief of Alec Station was interviewed by the 9/11 Commission on live TV (their identity was hidden by a curtain), the Deputy Chief was asked “Why was the FBI not informed?” The Deputy Chief’s emotional response was “we were so overwhelmed, it just fell through the cracks.””
This interview was at the September 20, 2002 public hearing of the Joint Inquiry Committee not the 9/11 Commission public hearings. Tom Wilshire’s statement that “we were so overwhelmed, it [telling the FBI about Mihdhar and Hazmi], just fell through the cracks.” is asinine at best since the CIA was only tracking 3 al Qaeda terrorists, Khalid al-Mihdhar, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Salem al-Hazmi. On August 21, 2001, when the CIA and FBI HQ’s, in fact Tom Wilshire himself, found out that both Mihdhar and Hazmi were inside of the US, they all knew they were here in order to take part in a massive al Qaeda terrorist attack that would murder thousands of Americans. So what did CIA officer Tom Wilshire do with this information. He ordered Dina Corsi and her boss Rod Middleton to shut down Steve Bongardt’s investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi after Bongardt also found out that these two al Qaeda terrorists were inside of the US, when he, Corsi and Middleton all knew this would allow the al Qaeda terrorists to murder thousands of Americans.
I see, so you apparently believe almost 3000 people were murdered in cold blood, but yet couldn't spare the time to speak in depth to one of the people you claim proves your case? No wonder the truth movement is dead.
Please show where in your post it proves the US government intentionally murdered it's own citizens and those of many other countries. Please note the bolded.
I'll wait.
