So … first, we had Bear Stearns: Too Big to Fail.

I think as we hope to disentangle the strategies in this mafia turf war, we must presume that at least Mueller, and quite probably Mukasey, approved this.

Just gotta be so. So, we start disentangling from there.

Over to you, Empty Wheel.

” A now public document indicates that before 9/11, Federal Bureau of Investigation agents had been investigating Abdullah bin Laden, president of the World Assembly of Muslim Youth, a suspected terrorist organization. The document, titled “199-Eye W.F. 213 589,”–now available via Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)–was signed by President George W. Bush before Sept. 11, 2001, according to British Broadcasting Corporation journalist Greg Palast.

Palast wrote in his book, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, that former FBI Agent John O’Neill–who died at the World Trade Center attack on 9/11–alleged that the document authorized the arrest of anyone who pursued Osama bin Laden. After quitting the FBI, O’Neill took a job as Head of Security at WTC. He died on his first day of work. More details of O’Neill’s story can be found in the book The Man Who Knew, by Murray Weiss”

I really don’t know who the bads guys are in this war.

Maybe we could take a vote and run with it.

If Bloch is the one with the juicy stuff on the administration, this raid just removed it from potential public view and placed it in DoJ purgatory—or worse into Presidential library archives which have a way of getting lost lost lost.

“Cheney’s office told the committee last week Addington would appear before a Judiciary subcommittee if subpoenaed, but only if the panel limited its questions”

…to inconsequential and trivial matters?
