WASHINGTON - A
Pentagon employee was ordered to destroy documents that identified Mohamed Atta as a terrorist two years before the 2001 attacks, a congressman said Thursday.

The employee is prepared to testify next week before the Senate Judiciary Committee and was expected to identify the person who ordered him to destroy the large volume of documents, said Rep. Curt Weldon (news, bio, voting record), R-Pa.

Weldon declined to identify the employee, citing confidentiality matters. Weldon described the documents as "2.5 terabytes" ? as much as one-fourth of all the printed materials in the
Library of Congress, he added.

A Senate Judiciary Committee aide said the witnesses for Wednesday hearing had not been finalized and could not confirm Weldon's comments.

Army Maj. Paul Swiergosz, a Pentagon spokesman, said officials have been "fact-finding in earnest for quite some time."

"We've interviewed 80 people involved with Able Danger, combed through hundreds of thousands of documents and millions of e-mails and have still found no documentation of Mohamed Atta," Swiergosz said.

He added that certain data had to be destroyed in accordance with existing regulations regarding "intelligence data on U.S. persons."

Weldon has said that Atta, the mastermind of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, and three other hijackers were identified in 1999 by a classified military intelligence unit known as "Able Danger," which determined they could be members of an al-Qaida cell.

On Wednesday, former members of the Sept. 11 commission dismissed the "Able Danger" assertions. One commissioner, ex-Sen. Slade Gorton, R-Wash., said, "Bluntly, it just didn't happen and that's the conclusion of all 10 of us."

Weldon responded angrily to Gorton's assertions.

"It's absolutely unbelievable that a commission would say this program just didn't exist," Weldon said Thursday.

Pentagon officials said this month they had found three more people who recall an intelligence chart identifying Atta as a terrorist prior to the Sept. 11 attacks.

Two military officers, Army Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer and Navy Capt. Scott Phillpott, have come forward to support Weldon's claims.

[Why]

we need more people that are willing to stand out and risk something to help our country sort out its bullshit.

Let's have Arlen Specter and friends from the Senate Judiciary Committee get to the bottom of this.. Be prepared for a big scandal... Not... lol

Washington, DC (AHN) - Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Spector says the Department of Defense ordered five key wittnesses not to testify about a secret of the 9-11 hijackers more than a year before the attacks.

Before Wednesday's Able-Danger committee hearing, Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman says the Pentagon is concerned about discussing a classified program in an open hearing and is working with the committee to provide a Department of Defense representative to testify. That representative was the acting assistant to the secretary for intelligence oversight, William Dugan.

Whitman also says the Pentagon is "working very closely with the committees of oversight to provide them with all of the info they need to assess Able Danger." The Judiciary Committee does not have oversight over the Pentagon.

Also testifying was former defense intelligence analyst, Erik Kleinsmith, who testified that in April 2000 his work became "severely restricted and ultimately shut down due to intelligence oversight concerns," which led to the destruction of very large amounts of data about Able Danger, including information about terrorists.

Bush people? the Senate Judiciary Committee is a "by-partisan" group.. formed with friends of the neocons and neolibs... Like the 9/11 commission.. They usually don't blame each others...

Here is a transcript of an interview with Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, one of those who are being forbidden to testify. Definitely worth a read if you are interested in Able Danger.

No, able danger which is what all this is about and it goes back to 2000. The (GOP) Judiciary Committee wants the military to testify because the 9/11 commission said there wasn't any "Able Danger" program back in 2000 that ID'ed Atta.

There are 3-4 military and former military officers who have came out and said there was a program called "Able Danger" and they did identify Atta. The FBI and DOD lawyers told them they couldn't alert them about him because it was a Clinton Admin policy that the FBI could not be involved in anti-terrorism issues and the DOD, CIA and FBI could not communicate with each other about terrorists.

ohh heavens this cant be a shock the government is twisted like all of other things in life

Agreed. I find it odd hurricanes of this magnitude are bombing the coast back to back. I still think they are controlling the weather. Using HAARP...in Alaska, and destroying poor states as a test. Thanks to the Supreme Court ruling back in June that allows local governments to seize people's homes and businesses ? even against their will ? for private economic development. As part of the scam they give all the rebuilding contracts to Bush pals and associates, meanwhile its a great distraction from political fingerpointing from scandals. Bush an pals win again!
oops...my tinfoil beenie fell off...must- put- back- on.
