The last time we were attacked like this was the USS Cole which was a prelude to 9/11.
From an article about Logan's story on former FBI agent Ali Soufan. He was in fact investigating the Cole attack when the CIA withheld crucial information about al Qaeda operatives who were later named as Flight 77 hijackers:
But, Soufan says he later learned the CIA knew - eight months before 9/11 - that this same operative had met in Malaysia with two terrorism suspects who would later hijack the plane that crashed into the Pentagon. And the CIA also knew that those two suspects were heading to the U.S.
"The agency knew that these al Qaeda operatives in Southeast Asia flew to America or they have visas to come to the United States, and somebody decided, 'Let's not share the information,'" Soufan said.
"And if it had been shared with you, what then?" Logan asked.
"I try not to think about that. I try not to think about, about what could have happened. Maybe, maybe thousands of American lives will be spared, maybe," Soufan said.
The CIA told us any suggestion it purposely refused to share critical information on the 9/11 plots with FBI is "baseless" and "these allegations diminish the hard work and dedication of countless CIA officers."
The InterrogatorIf Logan's worldview was truly consistent she would have been outraged that people at the CIA obstructed the Cole investigation. Instead she appears to have been satisfied with a stupid talking point from a CIA spokesperson denying any wrongdoing.
