Although it may be too early to call it a trend, two dramatic cases of intelligence setbacks have created quite a stir inside the administration of US President Barack Obama.
Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer interviewed on the Alex Jones Show A source with close ties to the highest echelons of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) told WMR that personnel who worked for the DIA on the classified counter-terrorism data mining operation known as Able Danger were aware of the planned attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and other major facilities in Washington, DC, on 9/11 but their information was permitted, on purpose, to languish in the intelligence and law enforcement bureaucracies without any proactive measures being taken. http://www.infowars.com/lt-col-anthony-shaffer-interviewed-on-the-alex-jones-show/
The men and women serving America's intelligence needs are doing a great job. This includes both the military and civilians. A little appreciation should be shown to them. Many of them do jobs that ordinary citizens and politicians would not attempt. It is easy to criticize but difficult to be correct one hundred per cent of the time. If there is a lapse, it is probably at Washington's highest political level.










One day Americans will come out of the fog and realize that all these communications breakdowns which allow terrorists to kill us, is not by accident. How many times will the general public swallow the lie that people were murdered due to incompetence within the intelligence community. It is not incompetence, on the contrary a pattern has emerged. Any time the Whitehouse wants to manipulate the public into accepting more aggression on the part of the US, they let a few terrorist thru and blame it on incompetence. This pattern has repeated itself time and again throughout history. When our government continues to get away with being an accomplice to the murder of its own people and managing to fool most of the people most of the time, why would the government change a methodology which has proven so successful? www.Prisonplanet.tv
