John O'Neill

John Patrick O'Neill (February 6, 1952–September 11, 2001) was a top American anti-terrorism expert
who worked as a special agent for the Federal Bureau of Investigation until late 2001.
In 1995, O'Neill began to intensely study the roots of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing after he
assisted in the capture of Ramzi Yousef, who was the leader of that plot.
He subsequently learned of al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden, and investigated the 1996 Khobar Towers
bombing in Saudi Arabia and the 2000 USS Cole bombing in Yemen.
Partly due to personal friction he had within the FBI and federal government, O'Neill left to become the head
of security at the World Trade Center, where he died at age 49 in the September 11, 2001 attacks.
In 2002, O'Neill was the subject of a Frontline documentary named “The Man Who Knew.”

Couldn't get it to work, so..I went back and restored my comp to a few days ago. The video works now and I'll let you know what I think in about 20 min shy of 2 hrs.


Never mind.... I figured it out, doh!


Ok, it is going to take me longer than 2 hrs to watch then review this video. Already I am catching what I already know to be facts. For example, those who watched this or who know, will get what I mean by ISI. A book that I read for the OARP, called -
"Unholy Wars" ISBN# 0-7453-1641-3 pg 221(has ties going back and rooted in Iran-Contra, hmm Oli North any one) mentions;

Three of bin Ladens camps near village of Khost, not far from Paki border base camp, support camp and terrorist training camp, all named Zhawar Kili al Badr, arranged in a rough isoceles triangle a few miles inside Afghanistan.
The camps had been planned and designed by the CIA, Paki ISI, and constructed in the early1980s with the human and engineering resources of Usama bin laden and his assoCIAtes.

Just figured I would throw this out there also;

One of the documents he discovered in the papers of Rep. George Mahon (D-TX), a member of the House Appropriations Committee in the 1950s and 1960s, identifies the amounts of money (and lists their "concealed" locations in the defense budget) that cumulatively comprised the CIA budget for fiscal year 1953.

Just a three paragraph section of the large page;
Allen Dulles (1953-1961) fought and won a number of battles to prevent the Defense Department from gaining control of key institutions and programs for the collection and analysis of intelligence. His successor, John McCone, became embroiled in the bitter battles between the CIA's Directorate of Science and Technology and the leadership of the National Reconnaissance Office over control of satellite programs - at one point submitting a memorandum that would have abolished the NRO.

During his tenure as DCI, Richard Helms complained that while he was ostensibly responsible for the activities of the entire intelligence community, he only controlled 15% of its resources, with almost all the remaining 85% in the hands of the Secretary of Defense. More recently, prior to his resignation, George Tenet reportedly told members of the Senate oversight committee that "he does not really consider himself to be DCI."

Over the years, presidents have issued directives, beginning with a 1962 letter from John Kennedy to John McCone, that expressed their desire that the DCI should coordinate the activities of the entire community. In 1971, Richard Nixon issued a memorandum which also called on the DCI to serve as community manager. In 1977, Jimmy Carter took a significant step by assigning the DCI responsibility for approving the National Foreign Intelligence Program budget - which meant approving not only the CIA budget

After the burning down of the Reichstag, politicians had nowhere to meet.
The Kroll Opera House in Berlin was chosen. This was a relatively small round
building - perfect for meetings. On March 23rd, elected officials were due to
meet to discuss and vote on Hitler's Enabling Law.
