FBI's missed opportunities before 9/11 and promotions were made?!!

Agent: FBI Could Have Prevented 9-11 - WASHINGTON – A veteran FBI agent Thursday charged that corruption inside the bureau derailed investigations that could have averted the terrorist attacks on America on Sept. 11. His lawyers said the FBI had evidence that the World Trade Center was a possible terrorist target.

FBI rewarding incompetence? - Posted: January 10, 2003
An FBI lawyer accused of dropping the ball prior to Sept. 11 has been awarded a presidential citation that comes with a large cash bonus.

FBI spokeswoman Susan Dryden confirms Deputy General Counsel Marion "Spike" Bowman was among current and former FBI officials who received Presidential Rank Awards last month that amount to a cash bonus of 20 percent of their annual salaries.

Has FBI promoted 9-11 ball-dropper?
Supervisor who blocked hijacker probe gets job with more responsibility.

WASHINGTON – The FBI supervisor who allegedly hamstrung the pre-Sept. 11 Minneapolis investigation into the alleged 20th hijacker has been transferred to a position where bureau sources say he'll actually have more authority.

Michael Maltbie, the FBI supervisory special agent accused of blocking field agents from obtaining a warrant to search Zacarias Moussaoui's computer, has been moved out of the counterterrorism division at bureau headquarters to the Cleveland office, where he'll work as a field supervisor.

And the Mantra of Bush and Condi Rice that; "they would have moved heaven and earth if they had any idea that the 9-11 attacks would/could occur in the US" just seem so scripted with no content.

Condi herself who failed in her job as NSA is then promoted to Secretary of State.

DSM?... A day that should live in infamy

1. Lies, Lies, and More Lies.
9/11 is the conspiracy of all conspiracies. The US knew it was going to happen, needed it to happen, and helped in carring it out. All to put a presence in the Middle East to control the dwindling hydrocarbons of the Middle East. We're heading down the path of Peak Oil and things are going to change in the next few years...it's back to the 1920s.

2. As far as I'm concerned, the FBI and CIA did their jobs
Its just the Bush Administration.

I mean, they were warned repeatedly.

They just either didn't want to hear it, or they didn't want to do anything about it.
