9/11 in the Time of Trump, part one
Listen now
Description
This podcast recounts the protection by Alec Station, the CIA's bin Laden tracking unit, of two of the accused 9/11 hijackers, right up to the time of the attack. The crucial roles of Richard Blee, Alec Station's chief, Tom Wilshere, its deputy chief, and Dina Corsi, an FBI analyst who became associated with Wilshere, are highlighted. What distinguishes this podcast is its debunking of the consciously false legal justifications used to prevent FBI criminal agents investigating the USS Cole bombing from arresting the hijackers.
