9/11 COMMISSION DISMISSES ABLE DANGER AGAIN

AP reports that former members of the Sept. 11 commission are dismissing assertions that the DoD intelligence unit known as Able Danger identified Mohammed Atta as a potential terrorist long before the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Earlier this month, AP reported the results of a Pentagon investigation which concluded that five people involved with Able Danger “remember seeing a chart that either mentioned Atta by name as an al-Qaida operative or showed his photograph. Four of the five recalled a chart with a pre-9/11 photo of Atta; the other person recalled only a reference to his name.”

AJStrata wonders why the commission has lept onto such a shaky limb one week before U.S. Senate hearings on Able Danger begin: “Are [they] demonstrating they know something, or simply proving by example how they could have screwed the Able Danger issue up so badly?”
