Please... let this not be true.

If it is true, then these lawyers have got to be held accountable...

Lord have mercy upon us- we are our own worst enemy.

[[ "U.S. law enforcement never received information on Sept. 11 ringleader Mohamed Atta and his possible connections to Al Qaeda, even though that information was known more than a year before the attacks that left approximately 3,000 people dead, Rep. Curt Weldon said Tuesday.

" Weldon, a Pennsylvania Republican and vice chairman of the House Armed Services and Homeland Security committees, said the hijackers were identified in 1999 by a classified military intelligence unit known as "Able Danger," which determined they could be members of an Al Qaeda cell.

"In September 2000, the unit recommended that its information on the hijackers be given to the FBI "so they could bring that cell in and take out the terrorists," Weldon said in an interview with the Associated Press.

"However, Weldon said Pentagon lawyers rejected the recommendation because they said Atta and the others were in the country legally.

"In fact, I'll tell you how stupid it was. They put stickies on the faces of Mohamed Atta on the chart that the military intelligence unit had completed and they said you can't talk to Atta because he's here on a green card," Weldon said." ]] (Link to story)

Why did this never come up during the 9/11 Commission investigations...? There are too many questions about this to just knee-jerk that it is all true. Still... we have to face the very disturbing possibility that Clinton appointed lawyers were directly responsible for preventing law enforcement from investigating the very demons who perpetrated the September 11th attacks.

Good Lord... let this not be true.
