HATE TO TELL YOU THIS, BUT ANGEL DANGER WAS A CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE
Able Danger clearly violated the law: and that is probably the reason nobody wanted to touch their output with a ten foot pole. Angel Danger was an ARMY unit spying on U.S. Citizens. Period. End of Story. Any and all evidence they obtained would not be admissible in any court in the land. It is precisely this type of domestic spying that the "walls" were designed to prevent. I don't have any more to say, no seven paragraph ramble, no blah blah blah or but but but. The American Military cannot spy on American citizens (unless in concert with the FBI). But they did it anyway.
I assume somebody will wake up to this in a week or so. Meanwhile, you read it here first.

Atta was a citizen? He was here legally,but I don't recall any citizenship being involved. I know the CIA isn't suppose to operate in the states, but does that rule apply to military investigations?
I sent you a long email with many citations. The Army can engage in certain activities so long as it is (controlled authorized supervised) by the FBI. "Data Mining" has not been specifically excluded but from the inception of Data Mining the ACLU and others have been waiting for a test case. Statutes are clear that the FBI is the controlling agency. In this case the FBI refused to accept Army intel.
Howard, this is the only rational explanation for what is being reported.
They did not want to face the scrutiny, so they continued the test program but didn't pass their information along.
The data mining program absolutely did spy on American citizens. The databases being searched were mostly of the activities of American citizens.
But as you say below, how could the Commission of Omission think they could get away with this?
