CIA will hold no accountability review

No disciplinary review for 9/11 failures of Tenet CIA director bars accountability review for his predecessor, others WASHINGTON - Contrary to recommendations, CIA Director Porter Goss will not order disciplinary reviews for the agency's former director George Tenet and other officials who have come under fire for their performance before the attacks of Sept 11, 2001. In a statement Wednesday, Goss said a report by the agency's independent watchdog did not suggest "that any one person or group of people could have prevented 9/11." "After great consideration of this report and its conclusion, I will not convene an accountability board to judge the performances of any individual CIA officers," he said. Msnbc story

Bush hates accountability. His example spreads through the government. The CIA will not hold accountability review, against the recommendations of its own internal watchdog group. Wasn't Tenet key for getting us under false pretense into Iraq? Didn't some agents played along with the White House's request for an excuse to invade? Hasn't the Iraqi War weaken our national security? This is an insult to the nation and to the honest CIA agents that tried to stop this farce. This is an insult to our soldiers who risk their lives and die due to bad intelligence. The Republican culture of impunity must stop now. Write to the White House and Congress to put pressure on the CIA to hold accountability reivews.
