ABLE ETC.

This is getting to be a soap opera, and Weldon did not just shoot off his mouth without some real testimony. I'm just assuming he also has evidence that he is sitting on too. It is more than strange that the Pentagon has "lost" the documentation as has the Committee. Lost info is worse than having damming info that might be explained away. All us conspiracy guys just have to leap on this one. The people who don't believe in conspiracies and coverups are too busy buying shares in Enron to get involved.

By PHILIP SHENON WASHINGTON, Aug. 22 - An active-duty Navy captain has become the second military officer to come forward publicly to say that a secret defense intelligence program tagged the ringleader of the Sept. 11 attacks as a possible terrorist more than a year before the attacks.
The officer, Scott J. Phillpott, said in a statement today that he could not discuss details of the military program, which was called Able Danger, but confirmed that its analysts had identified the Sept. 11 ringleader, Mohamed Atta, by name by early 2000. "My story is consistent," said Captain Phillpott, who managed the program for the Pentagon's Special Operations Command. "Atta was identified by Able Danger by January-February of 2000."
And yes, I was wrong when I opined that it seemed that Able Danger was becoming another "Burkett" type of story.
