oppps The 2002 interview is 40 minutes into interview.

Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn.

[Drango]

You can fast forward to the end of the 2002 video

Or, it's your post...YOU can give us more of a overview. Or not. (Your post in #11 doesn't say say much either)

Thank you for your input.

Its interesting to see the Democrats drag their feet on supporting the war in Iraq. Doctor Laurie Mylroie explained well when interviewed many of the reasons why U.S. government agencies might be our own worst nightmare at getting at the truth about 9/11 when they were supposed to inform the 9/11 Commission, Senate Select Intelligence Committee and Iraq Study Group corrections.

Asking the State Dept and CIA Clintanistas to testify before these 9/11-Iraq committees is almost hilarious as the U.N. asking Iran to sit on the Human Rights Council.

Thanks. Very interesting..

Her 2003 Bush vs the Beltway: How the CIA and the State Department Tried to Stop the War on Terror is also an excellent book. I read the The War on America as well. Mylroie knows what she is talking about. I wish more people would be aware of what she is saying.

"Mylroie knows what she is talking about. I wish more people would be aware of what she is saying."

Your right

I wish people payed more attention to what she is saying rather than what I have to say.

People can learn a lot from her. I shouldn't have to define her in sound bites. Sometimes there is a desire for instant gratification when people could be doing more on their own to learn about her role.

It really was worth sitting through both and was no big deal to slide the time bar and get to the important stuff. Thanks for posting it.

Is there a transcript somewhere?

“Compare and contrast the statements of Laurie Mylroie before and after 9/11.”

Usually that means watch the video and share ideas about how the two videos are perceived.

Free Republic is not always just about providing info. Its also about sharing ideas.

I will take heat for stating the “2nd video starts towards the end” when I really meant was 3/4 of the way. MY-bad for not being explicit.

Laurie Mylorie and Peter Lance. Following the same path!

Others too have information to share with Americans.

Check out Peter Lance who's written several books about it all including his latest Triple Cross: How bin Laden's Master Spy Penetrated the CIA, the Green Berets, and the FBI--and Why Patrick Fitzgerald Failed to Stop Him.

Basically it seems, no real mystery, just federal employees screwing up and covering up and covering up. Mr. Lance names them and why. I'm waiting for the blow up.

It took years to get any truth about Ruby Ridge and Waco -- Americans who demanded the truth were ridiculed and threatened but they hung in there.

Imagine what federal employees (elected, appointed, and civil service) will do to keep the lid on the WTC bombing, 9/11 -- as bad as Ruby Ridge and Waco were the cover up here is enough the shake Washington like nothing before. IMO.

“In his foreword, former CIA Director R. James Woolsey supports Mylroie’s assertions that during the early 1990’s, the U.S. government shifted from viewing terrorism as a tool used by governments to a practice engaged in by smaller fringe networks. This change led U.S. officials to go after the individuals responsible for the first World Trade Center attack while overlooking the fact that those men appeared to have extensive contacts with Iraqi intelligence. But here, Mylroie traces the actions of Ramzi Yousef, the mastermind behind the bombing, who remained at large until a botched attempt to down a dozen U.S. planes two years later. In reviewing Yousef’s phone calls before the bombing, false passports and escape patterns, Mylroie finds ties to Iraq at every turn. Could it be that he was acting alone, out of his own hatred for America, or was the Iraqi government, and Saddam Hussein in particular, supporting Yousef in what was once the most ambitious terrorist attack on U.S. soil?”

She talks about former CIA Director R. James Woolsey supporting her opinions in the 2002 interview

[shield]

She was as tough about saddam in 1995 as in 2002. She knew in 1995 if we didn't take him out we'd be attacked again and he'd go after the WTC.

I believe saddam was part of the bombing in OKC.

and thank you for the FR article

Laurie Mylorie and Peter Lance. Following the same path!

MY-bad for not being explicit.

It's YOUR thread. Feel free to be as clear or obtuse as you want. BUT here's a hint... asking people to watch 2 hours of video to see "something", without explaining what/why, is a thread killer IMHO.

Thank you. I bet she is a happy women today with what President Bush has done in Iraq. I wonder if anyone has interviewed her recently?
