Witnesses: Ashcroft blew off Al Qaeda warnings before 9/11
...and perjured himself to the 911 Commission

NBC News reports that the 9/11 panel has interviewed two FBI officials who contradict sworn testimony by Jesus John Ashcroft, regarding terrorism warnings in the summer of 2001.

At issue is a July 2001 meeting between Ashcroft and acting FBI Director Tom Pickard. That month, the threat of an al Qaeda attack was so high, the White House summoned the FBI and domestic agencies, and warned them to be on alert. Yet, Pickard testified to the 9/11 commission that when he tried to brief Ashcroft just a week later, on July 12, about the terror threat inside the United States, he got the brush-off.

Another senior FBI official says he 'vividly recalls' Pickard returning from the meeting that day furious that Ashcroft had cut short the terrorism briefing. [In addition, former head of the Criminal Division Ruben] Garcia confirmed to the commission that Ashcroft did indeed dismiss Pickard's warnings about al Qaeda.

Understand, Jesus John had more important concerns at the time. Such as busting hookers, head-shop owners, and dope-smoking cancer patients, and covering up the offending breasts of statues.

Being a deranged puritanical fanatic is hard work.
