SEPTEMBER 11: WHAT YOU "OUGHT NOT TO KNOW"
DOCUMENT 199-I AND THE FBI'S WORDS TO CHILL THE SOUL
Greg Palast

On November 9, 2001, when you could still choke on the dust in the air near Ground Zero, BBC Television received a call in London from a top-level US intelligence agent. He was not happy. Shortly after George W. Bush took office, he told us reluctantly, the CIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and the FBI, "were told to back off the Saudis."

We knew that. In the newsroom, we had a document already in hand, marked, "SECRET" across the top and "199-I" - meaning this was a national security matter.

The secret memo released agents to hunt down two member of the bin Laden family operating a "suspected terrorist organization" in the USA. It was dated September 13, 2001 -- two days too late for too many. What the memo indicates, corroborated by other sources, was that the agents had long wanted to question these characters ... but could not until after the attack. By that time, these bin Laden birds had flown their American nest.

Back to the high-level agent. I pressed him to tell me exactly which investigations were spiked. None of this interview dance was easy, requiring switching to untraceable phones. Ultimately, the insider said, "Khan Labs." At the time, our intelligence agencies were on the trail of Pakistan's Dr. Strangelove, A.Q. Khan, who built Pakistan's bomb and was selling its secrets to the Libyans. But once Bush and Condoleeza Rice's team took over, the source told us, agents were forced to let a hot trail go cold. Specifically, there were limits on tracing the Saudi money behind this "Islamic bomb."

4. It's amazing how many interesting posts just drop

like a stone around here. I think people mainly like to rehash the same old topics over and over again, and a lot of great stuff just gets ignored.

Sometimes if you post in a slower moving forum, it will get more attention because they don't move as fast. I can't really figure out why some really boring or over-discussed topics get tons of replies, while other really interesting or new topics get overlooked.

Well, I guess it's just one of those mysteries we'll never figure out! There are some great posts that never get replies, but a lot of us read them anyway! :)

5. Shrub Sr. Was working with Bin Ladins family the day of the WTC and

pentagon hits. Bush worked for them himself in, I believe 89-90, as a consultant. Shrub sr. was still working for Bin Ladins family well into March of 2002. Where the Partisan Judicial Watch advised Bush to make his father step down from the Bin Ladins family business because it was an "conflict of interest." The money trail and personal connections..runs deeeepppp!
