wars;
There appears no documentation anywhere that documents when information was withheld from the FBI USS Cole bombing investigators this was due to a turf war. There is however much documentation that documents that the CIA working with FBI HQ agents and managers that they had subjugated, criminally withheld material information from the FBI criminal investigators on the Cole bombing to hide their criminal culpability in allowing the bombing of the USS Cole.
Since this criminal conspiracy to hide information from the FBI USS Cole bombing investigators started in earnest at the very same time the CIA found out that they had been culpable in allowing the bombing of the USS Cole, it is clear that this criminal conspiracy to withhold this information from the FBI Cole investigators was primarily due to the CIA wanting to hide their criminal culpability in allowing the Cole bombing.
This is detailed in email between these FBI HQ agents and the FBI field agents on the Cole bombing:
In email back to FBI Agent Steve Bongardt, and head of the USS Cole bombing investigation at the New York FBI filed office, on August 29, 2001, FBI HQ Agent Dina Corsi stated that “if substantial evidence is developed of a federal crime”, (by Mihdhar and Hazmi), this information will be passed over the “WALL”. Corsi claimed that the NSA information she was given by the CIA could not be given to the FBI Cole bombing investigators due to the "WALL".
This literally is the smoking gun, the proof that FBI HQ Agent Corsi, the CIA and the FBI HQ knew that any evidence of a crime immediately nullified the "WALL". This one statement proves that FBI HQ knew they had no legal right to either withhold information from the FBI Cole bombing investigators, or shut down their investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi.
Corsi already had used in her EC to start an investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi, the NSA cable that had been based on a telephone tap of a conversation from the telephone number for the communications center for the east Africa al Qaeda bombings. This connected both Mihdhar and Hazmi not only to the al Qaeda terrorist organization, and the many crimes they had already carried out, but directly to the east Africa bombings that had murdered over 200 people including 12 Americans.
This was clear substantial evidence of a Federal crime.
She also knew that Walid Bin Attash, Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi had been at the Kuala Lumpur al Qaeda planning meeting actually planning the Cole bombing, yet another crime that had killed 17 US sailors.
This was more clear substantial evidence of another Federal crime.
So Corsi already had multiple examples of substantial evidence of federal crimes, information she, the FBI HQ, and the CIA had been hiding from FBI Agent Steve Bongardt and his team.
The people who were withholding this information from the FBI criminal investigators on the Cole bombing and who shut down Bongardt's investigation when he found out that Mihdhar and Hazmi were inside of the US, knew exactly what they were doing. This was not due to any failure of individuals to understand, or due to any turf war, but due to criminal actions by individuals at the CIA and FBI HQ to criminal obstruct an on going FBI criminal investigation.
Corsi had already been given a release by the NSA when she told Bongardt that he had to stop his investigation because of NSA restrictions, removed by this release.
Corsi fabricated NSLU FBI Attorney Sherry Sabol’s ruling telling Bongardt that he and his team could not take part in an investigation of Mihdhar, when even the 9/11 Commission report makes it clear that Sabol had ruled that Bongardt could take part in any investigation of Mihdhar.
Corsi tells Bongardt that if there is substantial evidence of a federal crime, this information on Mihdhar and Hazmi will be passed over "the WALL" when she had proof that Mihdhar and Hazmi had taken part in several crimes that had already killed scores of Americans. To claim that was due to a misunderstanding of the “WALL” or to a turf war was a cover up of criminal activity at both the CIA and FBI HQ, and is in line with many other examples that the 9/11 Commission was covering up massive criminal activity at both the FBI HQ and CIA that had allowed the attacks on 9/11 to take place.
The CIA had forbidden CIA officer, Tom Wilshire twice in July from turning any information on Kuala Lumpur over to FBI criminal investigators. Rod Middleton, Corsi's boss, had been given the photo of Walid Bin Attash by the CIA on August 30, 2001, connecting both Mihdhar and Hazmi to the planning of the Cole bombing. Yet he did not alert Bongardt when he now had clear photographic evidence that Mihdhar and Hazmi had taken part in the planning of the Cole bombing and tell him to immediately start a criminal investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi, particularly when he had been on the phone on August 28, 2001 with Corsi shutting down Bongardt’s investigation.
This clearly shows that many higher level managers at “both” the CIA and FBI HQ had been involved in criminally withholding material information from Bongardt’s investigation and then in illegally shutting down Bongardt’s investigation when they were aware this was criminal obstruction. But even worse, both the CIA and FBI HQ had to know when they shut down the only real investigating team that could have stopped Mihdhar and Hazmi in time to prevent the al Qaeda attacks they had been warned about, that their actions would result in the murder of thousands of Americans.
After researching thousands of pages, there appears next to nothing documenting any turf war that would explain why the CIA or FBI HQ withheld material information from FBI field agents in the investigation of the bombing of the USS Cole. When the CIA and FBI HQ knew a huge al Qaeda attack was about to take place inside of the US, knew Mihdhar and Hazmi were inside of the US, knew they were inside of the US in order to take part in this massive al Qaeda attack, and even knew that by shutting down Bongardt’s investigation of Mihdhar and Hazmi, thousands of Americans would be killed as a direct result of their actions to shut down Bongardt’s investigation, to claim that the CIA or FBI HQ would let thousands of Americans be murdered because of some supposed turf war makes no sense.
