8. Post her name as often as possible.

It gives me hope.

[Robbien]

9. kick. Sibel has not been on yet, Still time to try to get through

the busy webstream.

[cthrumatrix]

10. Sibel is on.....kick !

[cthrumatrix]

11. Sibel is demanding open, public Congressional hearings !

She is coming on quite strong ...she wants the Americans to know the information she has !

All the gag orders are still in affect...information still classified.

[BlueEyedSon]

12. kick for the Sibel-o-philes

[cthrumatrix]

13. Several points she is making...

Govt over classifying information ... Ashcroft's action makes people suspicious of why the "gag order" .

She is talking about "foreign business relations" as the issue. They will not invesitgate terrist activities becuase it would affect foreign business relations...yet AMericans can sacrific their rights?

[cthrumatrix]

14. Sibel shares that Ashcroft is covering up certain cases

that refusing to transfer cases from counter intelligence to FBI investigations becuase they feel "foriegn business relations"... "To save from emebarassment".

[cthrumatrix]

15. she is talking about the process of how her translations are "worked"

and how information is "removed or vetted" before "passing on".

Certain translation were INTENTIONALLY being blocked ! Even though translators had top secret clearance.

[cthrumatrix]

16. FBI translation division has serious mgmt problems.

They have removed this depart from the agency (?) This department is totally "closed off" from the agents... extremely poor funding. Many hiring being done through nepotism.

[cthrumatrix]

17. here is Sibel's web site...

take a look

[cthrumatrix]

18. she is telling how Condi Rice lied about 911 knowledge

she said Ms Rice said "we did not have the information"..Sibel said "we means FBI"... Sibel said that Rice corrcted "we" and changed that she did not have information...but nobody pressed Rice on who else new the information

[alcuno]

19. "This is Hell" is my absolute favorite. I like AAR, but I feel smarter

on Saturday afternoons. I love these guys.

[Robbien]

23. ThisIsHell and Bob McChesney on Sundays vie for my top spot

The only problem with McChesney is that it is only an hour, way too short.

[Robbien]

20. Sibel is a great interview

She stays on point, is logical but still conveys frustration and outrage.

[cthrumatrix]

21. 28 pages didacted from 911 report ...reports are classified

she has been briefing "congressman" in absolute "security" and data is not getting out.

The govt keep getting bigger and more and more scretive.

[cthrumatrix]

22. neither party wants her information out (dem or rep)... surprised?

The congress is not standing up..there are no checks and balances.

FBI took her report very seriously .... by blocking everything.

[G_j]

24. take note: important point /\ nt

[cthrumatrix]

25. talking about her 60 minutes report and that CBS did an "ok job"

she was confident that things would move forward...she thought congress would do thier jobs...she took it to authorities...but she did not share all data on 60 mins.

But nobody followed up....

[cthrumatrix]

26. Sen Leahy thinks Sibel's information is damaging

"...we fear that the designation of information as classified in some cases serves to protect the executive branch against embarrassing revelations and full accountability... Releasing declassified versions of these reports, or at least portions or summaries, would serve the public’s interest, increase transparency, promote effectiveness and efficiency at the FBI, and facilitate Congressional oversight."

U.S. Senators Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont) and Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) in a Letter to Attorney General John Ashcroft
