Here's more on the Path to 9/11. Think Progress posts about an interview on Scarborough Country last night with Roger Cressey who was a terrorism official under both Clinton and Bush. "He managed the U.S. Government's response to the Millennium terror alert, the USS COLE attack, and the September 11th attacks." Here's what he says.
"Joe, it’s amazing, based on what I’ve seen so far is how much they’ve gotten wrong. They got the small stuff wrong such as Khalid Sheikh Mohammed instructing Ahmed Rassam to carry out the millenium attacks. Then they got the big stuff wrong, this fantasy about how we had a CIA officer and the Northern Alliance leader Ahmed Massoud looking at Bin Laden and they breathlessly call the White House to say we need to take him out and the White House said no. I mean it’s sheer fantasy. So, if they want to critique the Clinton administration and the Bush administration, based on fact, I think that’s fine. But what ABC has done here is something straight out of Disney and fantasyland. It’s factually wrong. And that’s shameful."
