16. I read in a Time or News Week Magazine that the FBI attempted to get
Warrants to tap the phones of a DOZEN of the eventual hijackers, and for the contents of Mahmoud Atta's computer.. only months before the attack.... And Asscroft denied them the warents..

The article said that the FBI's general attitude was 'Don't bother trying to get a warrant from the Justice Dept.... it is a waste of paper and effort, because you aren't going to get it'

The article was a cover article.. it had photos of all the hijackers and boxes around the one they tried to warrants for, it was a long article.. photos of the flight schools something like..'could 911 have been prevented?'

I went back to the doctors office to get it a few days later but someone had taken it............
