13. Oh, good grief! Isn't Mueller the one who constrained John O'Neil?

That's it. This stinks. I'm going to check this out a bit more. John O'Neil was fighting terrorism and getting a bead on al-Qaeda when the lousy "briefcase" incident occurred. Was Mueller in charge then, or someone else?

Poor John O'Neil. Killed in the WTC attack, trying to save someone else.

Very strange. Creepy.

Edit: Just checked something on the Net, "In an April 19, 2002 speech to the Commonwealth Club of California, Mueller stated, "There was never even anything saying, 'Something is planned in the United States,' (Mueller III 4-19-2002; Remarks prepared for delivery by Robert S. Mueller III, Director, Federal Bureau of Investigation Commonwealth Club of California San Francisco, CA April 19, 2002

Yeah, that's the guy, all right, the one who shackled John O'Neil's investigation.

And more: "When a few prosecutors finally began targeting BCCI's operations in the late Eighties, President George Herbert Walker Bush boldly moved in with a federal probe directed by Justice Department investigator Robert Mueller. The U.S. Senate later found that the probe had been unaccountably "botched"--witnesses went missing, CIA records got "lost," all sorts of bad luck. Lower-ranking prosecutors told of heavy pressure from on high to "lay off." Most of the big BCCI players went unpunished or, like Mahfouz, got off with wrist-slap fines and sanctions. Mueller, of course, wound up as head of the FBI, appointed to the post in July 2001--by George W. Bush"

Kerry's target of BCCI, botched by Mueller?
