Please Sign the 'Able Danger' Petition.
(I encourage all of you who are interested to sign, and also to contact Weldon personally, encourage him to stop smearing Sandy Berger, and stand up for Sibel Edmonds too. The longer that Democrats refuse to engage with this issue, the worse it will wind up reflecting on the previous administration. -r.)

(From the 911Citizens Watch email list)

PLEASE FORWARD AND POST WIDELY

Sign Able Danger Petition Now

Able Danger team members, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer and Captain Scott Phillpott have put their reputations and careers on the line to inform the public that their 18 month data-mining operation (1999-2001) had identified Mohamed Atta and three other jihadists, now alleged 9/11 hijackers, over a year before the attacks and that, though they told the 9/11 Commission staff members Philip Zelikow and Dietrich Snell respectively, the Commission did not include any mention of the program in their final report released in July of 2004. Despite
the fact the Atta ID has been corroborated by four other team members and participants in the program, the former Commissioners continue to insist there is no confirming evidence and that Able Danger was not mentioned because the program was “historically insignificant.” In addition LTC Shaffer attempted to inform the FBI on three separate occasions in September of 2000 only to have meetings cancelled by as yet unnamed DoD lawyers.

If you believe that we deserve to know the truth about Able Danger and that whistleblowers should be ungagged by the Pentagon and allowed to testify publicly before Congressional committees please sign the Citizens’ petition online and help gather additional signatures by forwarding this email.

So please insist we hear from these whistleblowers directly and publicly and join 144 Republicans, 101 Democrats, and one Independent (including senior members and leadership on both sides of the isle) by signing the petition at:
http://www.petitiononline.com/weldon

Demand Secretary Rumsfeld cease protecting those who covered up and killed this program and demand an end to the secrecy surrounding Operation Able Danger and
its successor Stratus Ivy.

Thank you.

Kyle F. Hence

7. My only concern is that some in the GOP seem to be pushing this
So they can pin Sept 11 on Clinton.I dont know what the facts will reveal but I have a sneaking suspicion that its part of why they are doing this.I want to know the truth like anyone else but Im concerned that they will cherry pick the facts as a way of shifting blame.

8. That is exactly why...
Democrats need to get on board, NOW.

ABLE DANGER is not going away. Schaffer, at least, is a bona fide whistleblower and will bark until he gets a fair hearing, just like Sibel Edmonds is trying to do.

A bi-partisan Commission is necessary to prevent 'pin the blame on the Clinton' from happening. Simply burying our heads in the sand isn't going to wash.

Knowing the BFEE, the stones that will be overturned will reveal more BFEE shenanigans, not as much to do with Clinton. There is a possiblity that some Democrats may be tarred, but if a real investigation reveals factual evidence linking officials to commands to bury ABLE DANGER, the majority will undoubtedly be from the liars in residence.

Right now, Rumsfeld's Pentagon (DIA) is blocking the investigation. What does that tell you.

Let them testify.
