Judicial Watch Obtains New CIA Documents on Terrorist Interrogations
Judicial Watch ^ | Nov 3, 2009 | Judicial Watch

Posted on 11/08/2009 8:09:38 PM PST by ConfidentConservative

These new reports, dated June 1, 2005 and July 12, 2005, contain some different information than the previously released report, dated June 3, 2005. Notably, the June 1, 2005 report concludes that "Detainee reporting accounts for more than half of all HUMINT reporting on al-Qa'ida since the program began..." This fact is missing from the other two later reports.....

.....n March 31, 2009, Vice President Cheney personally issued a request to the National Archives Presidential Libraries section for declassification review of the June 1, 2005 and another detainee program report. The Archives then passed on the request to the CIA for review on April 8, 2009. Judicial Watch sought these reports after it became apparent that they would not be released by the Obama administration in a timely fashion.

I was reading in connection with the Ft. Hood shooting that they had discovered that many of the interpreters at Gitmo were not passing on good intelligence the detainees told them. The interpreters were often double agents giving bad info and withholding good info.

That may be true in some instances but the report says it was a huge success. The fact that the “o” took out sentences shows o’s dishonesty once again.

What should anyone expect from a natural born sneak, cheat and liar; whose closest friends are perfect Leninists.

And the adherents to Marxism encourage lying in order to gain power, saying that today's traitor will be tomorrows revolutionary hero. He may be naturally good at it but it is also what he has been taught at an early age and thoroughly schooled in later.

And I just heard that Leon Pannetta has SEALED all the
records pertaining to traitor killer, Nadal Hasan.

Let’s just tie our feet, too

Leon Panetta has sealed his records to ‘distance’ Obama and his administration from their connections to Hasan!

SOMETHING IS GOING ON HERE!! I think we are going to find out that someone in Obama’s adminstration or circle of contributors knows Hasan well...very well. Someone made the decision to promote the little jihadi pig after they knew of his islamist beliefs!

The FNC anchor absolutely said “sealed” ...

Maybe they mischaracterized the news that Panetta is “preserving” all information in their files related to Hasan and inaccurately used “sealed.”

Still, I smell some DNC-CIA spinning.

a U.S. intelligence official told CBS News that there’s no indication the CIA had any information about the alleged shooter.

“There’s no sign at this point that the CIA had collected information relevant to this case and then simply sat on it,” the official told CBS News Justice and Homeland Security correspondent Bob Orr.

ABC News published the report Monday morning with details that the CIA were refusing to brief the congressional committees charged with overseeing the intelligence agencies, a senior lawmaker told ABC.

Orr reports that the CIA denies any allegation that the agency is keeping Congress in the dark.

“This is a law enforcement investigation, in which other agencies — not the CIA — have the lead,” CIA spokesman George Little told Orr. “Any suggestion that the CIA refused to brief Congress is flat wrong.”

The report comes a day after lawmakers discussed the possibility of launching a congressional investigation into the worst mass shooting at a military facility in the United States last week that left 13 dead and 29 wounded.

Special Section: Tragedy at Fort Hood

In its report, ABC said it was unclear whether the American intelligence community alerted the Army about suspected shooter Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who attended the same mosque as two of the 9-11 hijackers. Hasan is in critical condition at an Army hospital and breathing on his own.

Congress has asked CIA Director Leon Panetta and National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair “to preserve” all documents and intelligence files related to Hasan, the senior lawmaker told ABC.

It is not known whether the intelligence agencies informed the Army that one of its officers was seeking to connect with suspected al Qaeda figures, the officials said.

Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-MI), the ranking Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, said that he requested the CIA and other intelligence agencies brief the committee on what was known, if anything, about Hasan by the U.S. intelligence community, only to be refused.

In response, Hoekstra issued a document preservation request to four intelligence agencies. The letter, dated November 7th, was sent to directors Dennis Blair (DNI), Robert Mueller (FBI), Lt. Gen Keith Alexander (NSA) and Leon Panetta (CIA).

Hoekstra said he is “absolutely furious” that the house intel committee has been refused an intelligence briefing by the DNI or CIA on Hasan’s attempt to reach out to al Qaeda, as first reported by ABC News.

“This is a law enforcement investigation, in which other agencies—not the CIA—have the lead,” CIA spokesman Paul Gimigliano said in a response to ABC News. “ Any suggestion that the CIA refused to brief Congress is incorrect.”

Great .. here we go again, with the intel agencies/Congress/Pentagon at war with each other, instead of focused on keeping their job of keeping US safe.

There is a massive cover-up going on because Hasan has connections to someone close to Obama ie.. someone in his own administration,in an advisory role or a well known influential supporter. That’s why the media is trying so hard to label this jihadi as a columbine type guy and drum up sympathy for him. And that’s why Obama does not want us ‘jumping to conclusions’....he doesn’t mean conclusions about Hasan...he means ‘conclusions’ about HIM!

If Hasan was in contact with, or even attempting to contact, forces outside the country, it's no longer "criminal" but rather an act of war, and treason on Hasan's part. (I will no longer be using his rank, he'd forfeit that courtesy)

Like all good Homo-Leninists, come loaded with friends and accessories, no batteries included will be supplied at the end of a gun barrel.
