2. Dick Cheney, does he speak with forked tongue?
Edited on Thu May-21-09 06:07 PM by rschop
In this speech today May 21, 2009, that has been widely reported on by main stream media, Dick Cheney said "it is our intelligence agencies that keep us safe from terrorists attacks".

But on 9/11 it was the CIA management hierarchy that had ordered the CIA Bin Laden unit, the Yemen CIA station, and the CIA handler for the FBI/CIA joint source to hide all information on the al Qaeda planning meeting in Kuala Lumpur in January 2000 from the FBI criminal investigators on the Cole bombing. This was the meeting where both the Cole bombing and the attacks on 9/11 had been planned.

Even the director of the FBI Louis Freeh had hidden this information from FBI Agent Ali Soufan when Soufan made an official request to him in November 2000. And even worse it was people at the CIA Bin Laden unit, including CIA deputy chief Tom Wilshire, and agents at the FBI UBL(Bin Laden unit) including FBI IOS Agent Dine Corsi, that shut down FBI Agent Steven Bongardt's investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi, even when they knew that by doing so thousands of Americans were going to perish in an imminent al Qaeda terrorist attack about to take place inside of the US. Since Wilshire had been forbidden several times by his CIA managers including, Richard B., the head of the CIA Bin Laden unit, Cofer Black, head of CIA CTC, and George Tenet, Director of the CIA, from giving this information to the FBI, and many people at FBI HQ knew Corsi was sabotaging Bongardt’s investigation of Mihdhar, it is now clear this horrific criminal conspiracy to allow the al Qaeda terrorists to carry out their attack on 9/11 went way beyond both Wilshire and Corsi.

It is ironic that when Cheney says that it is our own intelligence agencies that will keep us safe he clearly overlooks the fact that it was the very people at the CIA and FBI HQ that had deliberately, and intentionally allowed the al Qaeda terrorists to carry out the horrific attacks on 9/11 that killed almost 3000 Americans, a fact that must be by now all but an open secret in Washington DC.

3. I started to watch but can't do it. He is so very evil.
All he ever says is self-serving lies, anyway.
