Manhunt documentary

Manhunt is an HBO documentary that aired at Sundance in the early part of 2013. The CIA agents and filmmakers involved in the documentary went through months of media coverage without being asked why known al Qaeda operatives al-Hazmi and al-Mihdhar were protected from arrest before 9/11. They were not asked to explain the contradiction between urgent CIA warnings of an attack and concurrent CIA obstruction of investigations into al Qaeda operatives inside the US. One investigation that was obstructed was the investigation of the USS Cole attack.

Any debunkers want to explain this? By all means please explain why the CIA's conduct was appropriate. I have tried to find an explanation but to date not one single US official has put forth anything credible.

You guys have a dishonest proof hangup. You don't demand proof from NIST.

Demanding proof before there's even been a thorough investigation is silly.

I can hear the famous homicide detective entering a suspected murder crime scene and concluding within ten minutes "OK, we have no proof that any particular person did this. Therefore I am going to declare this a suicide and everyone can have the afternoon off!"
