The Defense Department is attempting to buy the entire first printing - 10,000 copies - of a memoir by a controversial former Defense Intelligence Agency officer so that the book can be destroyed, according to military and other sources.
"Operation Dark Heart," which was scheduled to be published this month by St. Martin's Press, recounts the adventures and frustrations of an Army reservist, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, who served in Afghanistan in 2003, a moment when the attention of Washington and the military had shifted to Iraq.

Thanks STARWISE. I guess those tens of thousands of pages in Wikileaks are okay according to the Obama admalistration.
Hmmm ... a presale.
I wonder if ebay is selling the same way.
I think you are absolutely right Roccus. The Able Danger story is long complex,and exhausting. It’s very possible we will never know either the end game or the truth.
Good question Pen I am not sure either.
Your tax dollar at work . . .
Difficult to find this book now.
Once again vested interests in our govt. don't want Col. Shaffer's story to see the light of day.!!We have a bunch of a-holls running some our our security branches.
Probably the same idiots that have covered up everything about zero as well! Someone at their level is doing the dirty deed and giving us blank pages to read any time we uncover anything about this Manchurian.
Saw it ..
The despicable legacy of Clinton and Socks Berger
and their conspirators lives.
Just unnerving and infuriating.
It wasn’t Clinton who placed Kean and Gorelick on the 9/11 cOmission.
ebay canceled order...
“When I listed this book, I didn’t know the book was recalled due to security reasons; therefore, the information supplied in the item description pertains to the original edition and not the new edition. According to the publisher, the new edition will be released on 9/24 but several pages will be blacked out due to censorship. Furthermore, Ebay has advised me to cancel the orders at this time. I’m sorry for the inconvenience.”
hmmmmmm....our overlord fascists got to them.
AAAahhh ... yep. The strong arm of the govt
is picking off their prey.
The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, also known as the 9/11 Commission, was set up on November 27, 2002 “to prepare a full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 attacks”, including preparedness for and the immediate response to the attacks.
The commission was also mandated to provide recommendations designed to guard against future attacks.
Chaired by former New Jersey Governor Thomas Kean, the commission consisted of five Democrats and five Republicans. The commission was created by Congressional legislation, with the bill signed into law by President George W. Bush.

As I recall, the leadership of each side
chose their 5 members. Who d’ya think
chose Gorelick ??
Kean
I had one of those ‘where were you’ moments at an intersection when Fox News Radio blurted out about the mineral find in Afghanistan being the richest the world has ever known, with major deposits of lithium.
Maggie, do you know if what you ordered is a ‘Trade Book’ or the original 1st issue?
Absolutely,
Hows a Palin/Shaffer ticket sound to you?
I hope the Col. goes on a book tour and tells all.
I see a copy for sale, but it is shown as a ‘Trade Book’ Got any idea what this trade book is? Is it an original 1st issue. I’d like to own a copy of this. Or, I guess I could read it on kindle.
