“Morale: When Lawyers Rules The Battlefield”

The problem with trusting humans is that humans are easy corrupted by evil. They also tend to be wrong, statistically speaking.

If you lack confidence and authority to decide, what makes you think anybody else is sufficient enough to replace your judgment? That lack of confidence and authority is also why you fail to make accurate assessments of the character and veracity, the wisdom or evil, of these witnesses and authorities.

I don’t place my trust in the system, especially The System, nor their apparatchiks.

Mateen was investigated, which tells you that we are investigating suspicious extremist Muslims.

He was investigated and because he had terrorist ties, the FBI were ordered to leave him alone and to allow him to operate freely. The FBI has been doing this since almost day one under Hussein. And it’s noticeable if you count the number of successful terrorist attacks on US soil for Bush II’s 8 years vs Hussein Obola’s 8 years.

McCarthy says that Mateen wasn’t committing crimes.

That didn’t stop Democrats from ordering the FBI to observe Republicans and spy on them, from FDR, to JFK, and onwards.

The FBI knows how to do domestic counter terrorism. They know how to spy and observe targets or potential terrorists, then arrest them when they’re buying bombs. Or guns. Or anything else for that matter.

The FBI prevented several terrorist attacks and arrested some idiots buying bombs or weapons from FBI undercover agents. The FBI, in 2008, weren’t incompetent or lacking “training” manuals. Suddenly they got blind all of a sudden under Hussein.

Lerner: I take the Fifth.

yeah, I’m sure you would.

As for the FBI lacking resources… heh. They have plenty of resources, provided to them by the patriot former President Bush II of the two terms.

You mention Andrew McCarthy’s testimony. You didn’t mention the other links I gave you, particularly the part about the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR. I have no idea what you’re actually asking, because I think the answers are in there. Did you read those links?

I would cut and paste some excerpts, except unfortunately they are PDF files and when you cut and paste them they come out in a very strange and-impossible-to-read format, with about one or two words on a line. So I don’t have the time to do that and re-format them. I will say that you should specifically read that last link I gave, and I’ll just offer this one excerpt (in which the formatting wasn’t as bad as in some of the other links):

I begin a TDY assignment at the National Targeting Center (NTC). A short time later, I am
assigned to the Advanced Targeting Team (ATT), where I work exclusively on the TJ Project, which is quickly upgraded to an ‘Initiative,’ (i.e., a global level case).

March 15, 2012 Seven lawyers and three SES administrators meet with management personnel at the NTC, to express concern for our focus on Tablighi Jamaat, which is not a designated terrorist group, because we may be discriminating against them, simply because they are Muslims, and thus violating their civil rights & civil liberties (as per FOIA).

June-July, 2012 The TJ Initiative is ‘taken in another direction,’ (a government-speak euphemism for being
shut down). This was done despite the fact that in 9 months, we had conducted 1,200 law enforcement actions, I was formally commended for finding 300 individuals with possible connections to terrorism, and 25% of the individuals in Guantanamo Bay had known links to Tablighi Jamaat.

December 02, 2015 The San Bernardino shootings occur, and I immediately link the Darul Uloom Al-Islamiya mosque in San Bernardino to the IIE case (with the 67 deleted records), and to the Tablighi Jamaat case (which was shut down).

June 12, 2016 The shootings in Orlando occur, and I link Omar Mateen’s mosque in Fort Pierce, FL to the IIE & TJ case.

When things are shut down for PC reasons and not followed up on, how can a person prove what would have happened but for the shut down? The problem is that the actionable intelligence that could have been gathered was not gathered, so how can you prove exactly what it was that wasn’t gathered and how the dots would have been connected? That’s requiring a type and level of proof that is unobtainable. But a person can still logically connect the dots that it probably would have mattered, and plenty of connections (some actionable) would most likely have been found if the leads had been allowed to have been pursued and the research was not forbidden.

It’s not just the words terrorism and jihad and the like, it’s the connections with mosques and with groups that are covers for terrorism, such as CAIR, and those connections are not allowed to be talked about (because those very groups are advising the government!)

I also think this by McCarthy is very important [emphasis mine]:

Clearly, the FBI spent a lot of time on Omar Mateen, the jihadist who murdered 49 people and
wounded dozens of others at a gay nightclub in Orlando.

The Bureau sent confidential informants to interact with him, conducted physical surveillance, covertly monitored some of his phone calls, and interviewed him face-to- face him three separate times. It concluded his bark was bad, but his bite was non-existent. Honoring guidelines imposed on terrorism investigations, the
FBI closed its case. That is, in addition to concluding that no charges should be filed, the Bureau further decided that additional monitoring of Mateen was not warranted.

Then start reading at the top of page 14. He explains how the FBI is hampered in its investigations by following the guidelines. It’s too long to go into here, but I think it’s very clear that Mateen was missed for these reasons. I can’t prove it, because we don’t have an alternate world in which we can try it out, but it is a very very logical (and I believe almost inevitable) conclusion.

What, concretely, are we not doing in these investigations that we should be doing? Referencing the administration’s commitment to their bizarre terminology isn’t an answer. I just can’t get angry about this (other than the smug look on Jeh’s face) until I hear what we’re doing wrong.

Not quite. I’m talking about trained FBI officers and agents who already know what is going on, but they are ordered to stand down and allow terrorists to operate freely. That is quite different from a bunch of army puke incompetents out of boot camp, that need to be “retrained”. It doesn’t matter what the training document is, if the problem are the orders from the top.

Intel on terrorism doesn’t depend primarily on training documents. It depends on networking and observing known terrorists like Hasan and what not. The training documents are merely an implication, it implicates the illegal orders or treasonous orders, which are not recorded.

So I’d need to see some very specific proof that the DHS’s terminology has reduced their effectiveness.

Spoken like a lawyer for Hillary Clinton and Louis lerner, no insult intended.

They would say “show us the proof”. Where is the proof?

My answer: You Deleted the Proof, did you not.

To look for more specifics you would probably either have to watch the entire proceedings of the committee or read all the transcripts. You can find some of the transcripts of testimony so far at this site. The problem is not just about investigating acts of terror that have already occurred, or analyzing them, it’s about preventing future ones, or gaining intelligence on the phenomenon.

For example, there’s this from Andrew McCarthy. If you don’t want to read the whole thing, start reading in particular at page 11 and read to the end. In addition, take a look at this as well as this.

Cruz didn’t make his statements in a vacuum; there was a lot of other testimony as to some of the details. Those are transcripts of only some of the testimony; I’m not sure where you can find the rest if you want more.

Ever think what happens to a country’s connection to God, the spiritual conduit to the godhead, when the nation kills 30+ million souls using Aztec blood magic?

I do, and I’ve come to some interesting conclusions.

Demons don’t need to go back to hell, when they have hell right here on Earth, principalities and powers, where the prince of the Demoncrats is the usual.

CAIR trains the FBI. When the FBi connects the dots between terrorists, CAIR erases those connections. That’s what is really being discussed here.

Cruz is just working off official documentation, you know, the stuff they didn’t accidentally “delete” on their servers.

There are plenty of levers provided by Donald, Cruz, or Alternative Right movements.

They’re not united, but that’s probably asking for too much luxury now a days, with god forsaken country that hates and curses God, so they elected Hussein. Good one there.
