Lee Hamilton (co-chair) of the 911 Commission is on the Board of Directors of Sandy Berger's company - Stonebridge International. I saw another freeper post this and thought it warranted its own vanity thread.

Who's Who on the 9/11 "Independent" Commission

"According to a 1998 Senate testimony of former CIA director James
Woolsey, powerful financier Khalid bin Mahfouz’ younger sister is
married to Osama bin Laden,. (US Senate, Senate Judiciary
Committee, Federal News Service, 3 Sept. 1998, See also Wayne
Madsen, Questionable Ties, In These Times,12 Nov. 2001 )
Bin Mahfouz is suspected to have funneled millions of dollars to the Al
Qaeda network.(See Tom Flocco, Scoop.co.nz 28 Aug. 2002)
Now, "by sheer coincidence", former New Jersey governor Thomas
Kean has business ties with bin Mahfouz and Al-Amoudi.
Thomas Kean is a director (and shareholder) of Amerada Hess
Corporation , which is involved in the Hess-Delta joint venture with
Delta Oil of Saudi Arabia (owned by the bin Mahfouz and Al-Amoudi
clans)...
Now you would think that being a business partner of the brother in
law and alleged financier of "Enemy No. 1" would also be considered a
bona fide "conflict of interest", particularly when your mandate --as
part of the 9/11 Commission's work-- is to investigate "Enemy No. 1".
"(Michel Chossudovsky, New Chairman of 9/11 Commission had
business ties with Osama's Brother in Law,

"...the 911 Commission..."

ROTFL!!!!! Judging from their reaction to "The Path to 911," the DemocRATS obviously think that this "commission" was a farce also.

Man, Algore should have NEVER invented the Internets.

[khnyny]

Wow. Great post.

[khnyny]

Looks like the "bad guys" are all in bed together.

Sandy probably removed some references re Able Danger at the archives. BTW, the dems are going after Weldon big time.

[khnyny]

LOL. The fact that Sandy did not do jail time continues to bother me. What a clown.

[khnyny]

Berger's company does a lot of business with China today (according to the company website). I guess while he was at the White House he was setting himself up for retirement.

[khnyny]

It looks like the revolving door which is DC has jeopardized US security.

StoneWALL International is a fully owned subsidiary.

"The fact that Sandy did not do jail time continues to bother me."

It should bother any law abiding patriotic American. What bothers me more is that as a part of his plea agreement, he is eligible to have his security clearance reinstated after 3 years!

Burglar showed up on C-Span a few months back under a banner printed with a Stonebridge thinktank name. Looks as if he's changed it to 'international'. Going big time. Well, and why not. Sandy'll be back in the money if Hill takes over.

[operation clinton cleanup]

The Khobar bombing should have prompted severe consequences for both Saudi Arabia, for its financial support for the growing terror network, and Iran, for its direct involvement in the attack. But the Clinton administration couldn't bring itself to change the basis of its relationship with Saudi Arabia, or to punish Iran, which actually got softer treatment after Khobar.

Being former Air Force and having spent two tours at Khobar Towers, this crap is what inspired my screen name.

After 3 years? That really is insane. Why, so he can stuff more documents down his pants? Did he miss something?

Revisionist History: "Path to 9/11" Prompts the Question; Are Disney/ABC or the Clinton Administration Guilty?
By John E. Carey
September 10, 2006

Let’s just review for a moment the affair of one Samuel “Sandy” Berger and the National Archives.

On Thursday, July 22, 2004, Washington Post staff writers John F. Harris and Susan Schmidt, wrote “Last Oct. 2, former Clinton national security adviser Samuel R. ‘Sandy’ Berger stayed huddled over papers at the National Archives until 8 p.m. What he did not know as he labored through that long Thursday was that the same Archives employees who were solicitously retrieving documents for him were also watching their important visitor with a suspicious eye.”

The employees of the National Archives suspected that Sandy Berger was stealing classified government archives about terrorists from his tenure as President Clinton’s National Security Advisor.

They were right.

John F. Harris and Susan Schmidt wrote, “The documents that Berger has acknowledged taking -- some of which remain missing -- are different drafts of a January 2000 ‘after-action review’ of how the government responded to terrorism plots at the turn of the millennium. The document was written by White House anti-terrorism coordinator Richard A. Clarke, at Berger's direction when he was in government.”

Harris and Schmidt also reported that, “Sources have told The Washington Post, and other news organizations, that Berger was witnessed stuffing papers into his clothing.”

Transporting classified government documents without proper authorization is a serious offense. Stealing historical records from the national Archives is equally heinous.

But the real crime that Sandy Berger, and other Clinton Administration personnel, may be guilty of is this: “revisionist history.”

After September 11, 2001, everyone in Washington DC asked the same questions: How could this happen and why weren’t we forewarned?

In fact, “we” were forewarned. There were many events that should have set off alarm bells during President Clinton’s Administration.

A few of the events among these warning signs include: the first World trade center bombing (February 1993), the discovery of the Lincoln and Holland tunnel plots (Spring 1993), the car bombing of the U.S. military headquarters of the United States in Saudi Arabia (November 1995), the truck bombing of the U.S. military housing facility Khobar Towers (June 1996), the truck bombings at U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania (August 1998), and the bombing of USS Cole (October 2000).

Less than one year later, the World Trade Center and the pentagon were hit on September 11, 2001.

This brings us to the loud and vocal protestations from Clinton Administration loyalists to the Disney/ABC production which starts to air tonight, “Path to 9/11.”

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Clinton Foundation head Bruce Lindsey and Clinton adviser Douglas Band all wrote in the past week to Robert Iger, CEO of ABC's parent The Walt Disney Co., to express concern over “The Path to 9/11.”What do they have to hide?

And what respect do they have for freedom of speech?

When Oliver Stone made his movie “J.F.K.” depicting the president’s assassination as the product of a government conspiracy, do you recall this level of protest?

So we take caution and pause when we hear these vociferous protestations from the Clinton Camp.

We don’t much like revisionist history. And we wonder what the members of the Clinton Administration want to shroud from public view.
