... and set out to destroy it.
Any insider 9/11 plot, if it existed, probably revolved around a rogue neoconservative faction in the military-industry complex, not around the CIA. JINSA would have to be considered a leading suspect. The neocons used 9/11 not only as a pretext to attack Iraq, but as an excuse to purge the CIA of any American patriots who opposed their plans.
Any "shakeup" of the Bush administration will be mere window dressing unless the den of neocon vipers in Dick Cheney's office is completely cleaned out, root and branch. Will it take a military coup to accomplish this? Then bring it on, and bring the criminals in the Bush administration before a military tribunal for their war crimes and their crimes against the Constitution.
[Excerpt]
The Bush administration, unfortunately, is a big part of what's wrong. From the start, officials close to Vice President Cheney viewed a moribund, risk-averse CIA as an obstacle to their goals. Certainly the CIA made mistakes, especially in its assessment of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, but that's not why it was punished. It became a political whipping boy for the right wing largely because it tried to tell the truth on two key issues: alleged Iraqi efforts to acquire uranium from Niger and alleged Iraqi operational links with al-Qaeda. On both, CIA analysts repeatedly warned the administration that the evidence didn't support its conclusions, yet the vice president's office kept coming back and telling them to take another look. The CIA issued a secret paper in January 2003 saying that there was no Iraqi authority, control or direction over al-Qaeda. Yet the political pressure continued.
