The notification came in a letter dated January 6, 2004, addressed by Attorney General John Ashcroft, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and CIA Director George J. Tenet. The ACLU described it as a fax sent by David Addington, then-counsel to former vice president Dick Cheney. In the message, the officials denied the bipartisan commission's request to question terrorist detainees, informing its two senior-most members that doing so would "cross" a "line" and obstruct the administration's ability to protect the nation. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/assets/img/hill-911-attacks/image-03-large.jpg https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=http%3A%2F%2Fshoebat.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2017%2F02%2Fisisthreatens-300x168.png&sp=154c7e971af26645de89be8ae5927d10 restricted from interview- surveiled attacker recruitment Ron Suskind has accused Tenet of procuring a forged letter, on the orders of the White House, that linked Saddam Hussein to Al Qaeda https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=http%3A%2F%2F911truthnews.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2011%2F08%2Fgeorge_tenet_911_1.jpg&sp=a8070b2460c9e84358e81332f685170d Okay, here's what we want on the letter, we want it to be released as essentially a representation of something Habbush says.

Because of his tendency to talk constantly he was known as "the mouthpiece." Sol Winder, a family friend and later owner of their diner, said he was "the type of guy who could never keep a secret." member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) from 1985 to 1988 Tenet joined President-elect Bill Clinton's national security transition team in November 1992. Clinton appointed Tenet Senior Director for Intelligence Programs at the National Security Council, where he served from 1993 to 1995 Tenet was appointed Deputy Director of Central Intelligence in July 1995. After John Deutch's abrupt resignation in December 1996, Tenet served as acting director. This was followed by the reluctant withdrawal of Anthony Lake, after it became apparent to Lake that his nomination had been successfully blocked by Republicans in Congress. Tenet was then officially appointed Director on July 11, 1997 While the Director of Central Intelligence has been replaced by an incoming administration since Jimmy Carter replaced DCI George H. W. Bush, Tenet served through the end of the Clinton administration and well into the term of George W. Bush. In 1999 the Director declined to reveal the overall budget for intelligence operations (including the CIA) which was a departure from his release the previous two years. This led to criticism from government transparency advocates https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=https%3A%2F%2Frealizethelies.files.wordpress.com%2F2016%2F04%2Fpanamapapercia.jpg%3Fw%3D450&sp=9da4225e50119c3914b9d166e916715c On May 7, 1999, during the Kosovo War, U.S. bombers struck the Chinese embassy in Belgrade 0-8 https://youtu.be/rXX_DFwN6n0 Serbia killing three Chinese reporters and injuring 20 others Tenet later admitted the strike was the only one in the campaign organized and directed by his agency though he still claimed it was not deliberate. systematic changes were made to pre-strike Rules of Engagement (ROE) for U.S. pilots, including checklists verifying target information and coordinates. China has never accepted the United States' version of events China had, through unofficial channels, provided the Agency with the exact GPS coordinates of their Embassy in Baghdad so as to ensure the CIA knew the precise location . "By 9/11", said Tenet, "a map would show that these collection programs and human [reporting] networks were in place in such numbers as to nearly cover Afghanistan". A series of flights in autumn 2000, overseen by CTC officials and flown by USAF drone pilots from a control room at the CIA's Langley headquarters, produced probable sightings of the al-Qaeda leader. CIA to field a lethal drone, Tenet said, "they should do so with their eyes wide open, fully aware of the potential fallout if there were a controversial or mistaken strike". National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice concluded that the armed Predator was required, but evidently not ready. It was agreed to recommend to the CIA to resume reconnaissance flights. The "previously reluctant" Tenet then ordered the Agency to do so. The CIA was authorized to "deploy the system with weapons-capable aircraft" Tenet testified before a public hearing of the September 11 Commission investigating 9/11, that he did not meet with Bush in August 2001, the month before the September 11 attacks. The same evening after the hearings, a CIA spokesman corrected Tenet's testimony, stating that Tenet did indeed meet with Bush twice in August. Tenet in his memoir writes of his memorable visit to Bush at Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, in August 2001 2:22-1:47 https://youtu.be/y8j43j_dWVU The 19-page summary states that Tenet knew the dangers of Al Qaeda well before September 2001, but that the leadership of the CIA did not do enough to prevent any attacks Tenet immediately increased the size and capability of the CIA's special operations component housed in the Special Operations Group of the Special Activities Division 2:33-2:49 https://youtu.be/VZnnb1h3dwA Tenet presented the Worldwide Attack Matrix, a blueprint for what became known as the War on Terror. 32-44 https://youtu.be/EWg-gMjIQgI During Tenet's directorship, President Bush authorized the CIA to use waterboarding and other forms of torture (euphemistically referred to as "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques") during interrogations of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Abu Zubaydah and Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, all suspected Al Qaida members 38-45 https://youtu.be/JzHgnlvRBhE At a meeting on December 12, 2002, he assured Bush that the evidence that Iraq had WMDs amounted to a "slam dunk case." 2:29-2:35 https://youtu.be/ZgvuBIdW5GU The administration wasn't using intelligence to inform their judgment; they were using intelligence as part of a public relations campaign to justify their judgment the US Intelligence Community to suffer from a "broken corporate culture and poor management" that resulted in a NIE which was completely wrong in almost every respect. After Tenet left, John E. McLaughlin served as acting director until Porter Goss was sworn to the position in on September 24, two days after the Senate approved him Human Rights Watch and The New York Times Editorial board have called for the prosecution of Tenet "for conspiracy to torture as well as other crimes." 40-55 https://youtu.be/8gz9KbOZuBE Senator Carl Levin said, "I don't think [he] served the president or the nation well." In October 2006 Tenet joined British defense contractor Qinetiq as an independent non-executive director. 54-1:00 https://youtu.be/yAbSbPMB4KY 1:25-1:34 https://youtu.be/qC16WI4AVXI He joined Qinetiq's North America board as well as becoming managing director of investment bank Allen & Company. 33-1:39 https://youtu.be/RcZB8df5kuU The secretive bank did not announce Tenet's appointment, and it was unknown until it was leaked in February of the following year Tenet is also on the boards of directors of L-1 Identity Solutions, a biometric identification software manufacturer. 35-39 https://youtu.be/fO240aXXYP4 Tenet tells of a conversation with then-Pentagon advisor Richard Perle on September 12, 2001 in which Tenet claims Perle told him in person that "Iraq had to pay for the attack". But the conversation could not have occurred on that day, because Perle was stranded in Paris, France, on September 12 and did not return to Washington until three days later. https://s14-eu5.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.gr-assets.com%2Fbooks%2F1347433729l%2F1910259.jpg&sp=8bf1c1b6ce0e5efdd86cd8487153e4bd Perle insisted that he and Tenet exchanged no words After becoming Director of the CIA (DCI) in 1997, George Tenet did what Louis Freeh had done after his appointment as FBI Director. He began to cultivate close personal relationships with the rulers of Saudi Arabia. Tenet grew especially close to Prince Bandar, the Saudi ambassador to the United States. . Therefore the unsolved crimes of 9/11, attributed largely to young men from Saudi Arabia, should be considered in light of Tenet’s actions. Tenet had worked to install one of his closest friends and confidants, John Brennan, as CIA station chief in Saudi Arabia. Brennan often communicated directly with Tenet, avoiding the usual chain of command. At the time, as an apparent favor to the Saudis, CIA analysts were discouraged from questioning Saudi links to Arab extremists. The unusual relationship that both George Tenet and Louis Freeh had with Saudi intelligence (and George H.W. Bush) recalls the private network that was created in the mid-1970s to accomplish covert actions though means of proxies. This private network included disgruntled CIA officers who had been fired by President Carter, as well as the group known as The Safari Club, and the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).
