WERE THE 9/11 ATTACKS NOT PREVENTED ACCIDENTLY ON PURPOSE?

Erik Prince Catholic right wing Christian supremist who used his business Blackwater/Xe to make money off the government and further his war on Islam, is giving interviews about his role as an operative for the CIA. I believe he has been sending a message to certain key people at the justice department, CIA, FBI, and White House that he knows information that could take down a lot of people, exposing a lot of their operations, and they need to back off. This is called graymailing and is one of the reasons many who have committed war crimes in Iraq are not being brought to justice. Prince is using leverage to protect himself from some truly subversive, evil things he has done in the name of the United States and the Christian right. He is being investigated by two grand juries. He may be facing many charges, including murder and plans to bring down some people by revealing some activities of the CIA and other government agencies. We already know the threats of revealing information have worked against President Obama who did not want war crime prosecutions, will they work against Erik Holder as well? Erik Prince's father was a friend of James Dobson and partially financed the Family Research Council. There is a right wing of the Catholic Church of which Erik Prince is a member which is causing problems and seems to be splitting the church up.


The Iraqi government has expelled the Blackwater/XE, by not giving them an operating license, but it is apparently still operating there illegally with the aid of the United States government's use of contractors. Blackwater/Xe is conducting missions in Afghanistan for the United States even now.

It is important that we find out who exactly knew about the 9/11 plot which is looking like it went all the way up to George Bush and why they did nothing to stop it. It is also important to look at the coincidences which kept our normal defenses which would have detected the planes from functioning that day. My theory is they wanted it to happen so they could use it as an excuse to invade Iraq to further their Christian right agenda, help private military contractors make millions, and try to secure the oil for companies in the United States.

Leveymg on the Daily KOs:

On January 15, 2000, al-Hazmi and al-Midhar entered the US at Los Angeles, and immediately met an air attache working under civilian cover (Dallah-AVCO Air Services) out of the Saudi Consulate in LA, who gave the pair funds from a Riggs Bank account and drove them to San Diego, installing them in a rental unit under the supervision of several figures...


The entry into the US of the pair, who went on to hijack AA Flt 77 that crashed into the Pentagon was noted at CTC. A warning cable was drafted by the FBI liaison officer, but withheld at the direct order of the CTC Assn't Director, Richard Blee, Cofer Black's No. 2. (Black became chairman of the privately owned intelligence gathering company Total Intelligence Solutions, Inc., as well as vice chairman for Xe).


Black and Blee ran CTC during the next 20 months that the Flt. 77 hijackers were allowed to run free inside the US, taking flight training and meeting frequently with other 9/11 attack cell members. During that time, the FBI I-49 National Security Unit, under the command of John O'Neill -- which was charged with monitoring AQ inside the US, and had been frustrated in its investigation of the Cole attack - was kept in the dark. O'Neill resigned from the FBI shortly before 9/11, when he was killed during the collapse of the World Trade Center, where he had taken the job as head of security. In the summer of 2001, O'Neill and I-49 officers repeatedly clashed with Black and Blee over the CIA's refusal to turn over CIA files about the attack squads the FBI knew from other sources were plotting attacks inside the US. FBI warrants for electronic surveillance were withheld by ranking figures in Washington.

By July, it was clear what the targets of the hijackers were and the time-frame they would be hit. On the 10th, Tenet, Black, and Blee got into a CIA SUV, and visited National Security Advisor Condi Rice, and had a tense meeting with her about al-Qaeda. According to Tenet, she seemed to understand the threat, but was ambivalent in her response. Finally, in mid August, Tenet got on a CIA jet and visited President Bush in Crawford, where the President had been deposited for safe-keeping since returning in early July from Genoa, where ground-to-air missiles were installed to protect him from suspected al-Qaeda attack by aircraft. Tenet went on to perjure himself before the 9/11 Commission, falsely claiming he had had no communication with Bush during the 60 days before 9/11. In fact, records showed they had talked on at least a dozen occasions, including the face-to-face on either August 15 or 21, the latter date being the day the FBI finally got an alert and received some of the contents of the CIA file that detailed the Kuala Lumpur summit and the entry of al-Hazmi and al-Midhar 19 months earlier.

Black resigned from the CIA in April 2002, after interrogation of Abu Zubaydeh revealed the names of leading Saudi and Pakistani figures who had bankrolled the operation, and after the apparently willful failure of Jawbreaker, the CIA-run operation to capture bin Laden in Afghanistan the previous December.


In early 2002, after Bin Laden escaped across the unguarded Pakistani Border from Tora Bora, Erik Prince was in Afghanistan meeting with CIA Executive Director "Buzzy" Krongard, who handed Blackwater a series of contracts, including one to carry out worldwide assassinations. In recent statements, US Gov't officials have said that while millions were spent, the CIA-funded Blackwater hit teams did not bag any bad guys. After his departure from CIA, Krongard was, in turn, appointed a Director of the Whitewater/Xe Board last year. It is strange that the same names keep appearing in the same places in the middle of the same "intelligence failures", and that so many of them ended up at Blackwater/Xe.


Apparently, "willful" is the watchword for the Bush-Cheney management of this element of the CIA, which went on to run a division of Blackwater, and in the actions of these individuals in failing to prevent the 9/11 attacks and their failure to capture top terrorist leaders thereafter.


In the small, dark world of black operations, everyone indeed knows each other, all too well. It's time the American people learned more about this.
