'CIA knew about 9/11 from about April and May 2001'

'CIA knew about 9/11 from about April and May 2001'

Susan Lindauer
September 11, 2011

U.S. intelligence analyst and 9/11 whistleblower, Susan Lindauer, says the CIA and the Defense Intelligence Agency knew about the September 11 attacks from April and May of 2001.

"The CIA and the Defense Intelligence Agency knew about 9/11 from about April and May of 2001. I discovered when my CIA handler instructed me to threaten my contacts at the Iraqi embassy in New York with war in the event that 9/11 happened and the Iraqi failed to provide actionable intelligence to us that would help us thwart it," Lindauer told Press TV's U.S. Desk.

Iraq insisted that it had nothing to hand over to the U.S., she said. After years of devastating sanctions "Iraq was looking for peace and if they had had any intelligence on the 9/11 conspiracy they were fully aware that they needed to hand it over and they would have wanted to do that."

Lindauer, the author of "Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq" said that she was warned in August of 2001 to stay out of New York because the "attacks were considered imminent."

As a U.S. Intelligence Asset, Susan Lindauer covered anti-terrorism at the Iraqi Embassy in New York from 1996 up to the invasion. Shortly after requesting to testify before Congress about successful elements of Pre-War Intelligence, Lindauer became one of the first non-Arab Americans arrested on the Patriot Act as an "Iraqi Agent."

9-11 whistleblower Susan Lindauer's case confirms we live in Gulag Amerika
By Kent Welton
9-11 whistleblower Susan Lindauer's case confirms we live in Gulag Amerika... "I get asked all the time why Washington allowed the 9-11 attack to happen, because that's what they did. They allowed it to happen, 9-11 was the outcome of a shadow policy of "deliberate avoidance.' Senior officials got warned over and over what was coming by numerous highly knowledgeable sources... In the aftermath, it's obvious that 9-11 provided the vehicle for war with Iraq. Everyone can see that."

Excerpts from Susan Lindauer's book, Extreme Prejudice "I was one of only three U.S. assets covering the Iraqi Embassy at the United Nations before the war, granting me vast primary knowledge of pre-war intelligence, as a direct participant in some of the events. I would soon discover that all three of us got arrested as "Iraqi agents' when Congress and the White House decided to cook the intelligence books. Second, Along with Jose Padilla, I was one of the very first non-Arab Americans to discover the slippery and treacherous legal terrain of the Patriot Act. By invoking the Patriot Act against me, the Justice department used the same tools to smash political dissension against the Republican policy that Congress enacted to break terrorists. The message was simple: Oppose the Grand Old Party and you become an "enemy of the state'" On the morning of my arrest, I saw with total clarity that I was the first casualty of the Republican War on Truth."'
