In reply to the discussion: Counterterrorism Czar Accuses Tenet and CIA of 9/11 Cover-Up [View all]noise
(2,392 posts)1. The information was shared with the FBI
The FBI UBLU went out of their way to obstruct the USS Cole criminal investigation.
One main reason we don't know what happened is because US media would rather repeat stupid CIA talking points instead of actually investigating the story. 60 Minutes interviewed former FBI agent Ali Soufan during his book tour and made sure to note that some former CIA officials say there is no substance to the notion of CIA withholding of intelligence.
US media has never interviewed Richard Blee, chief of Alec Station from mid-'99 until 12/01, or Rod Middleton, chief of the FBI UBLU from 6/01 until 9/01.

So the USS Cole attack is not a significant attack and did not involve American casualties?

"according to Sunder, the explosions were silent which is why no one could hear them on 9/11."
