You were sooo right in noting that 9/11 might have never happened if only one of Fannie Mae's latest disgraced millionaire functionaries, Jaime Gorelick, (who is probably Jewish too) had not set up rules in the Clinton DOJ to make it impossible for that FBI lady to sound the alarm about all those Arab 'students' learning to fly, and possibly prevent 9/11.
Actually, that would be ... <*BZZZZT!*> ... wrong. There was no rule that said the FBi couldn't talk to the CIA. Nor a rule that said that the CIA couldn't alert the INS that two terrorists had visas for the United States. The CIA dropped the ball here.
In fact, what prevented action was some FBI middle manager that sat on Colleen Rowley's request and didn't pass it to Washington. Strangely enough, Dubya later gave this guy a merit bonus, at a time where there was a federal wage freeze on....
Cheers,
