re: "It's always interesting watching the occasional uninformed post, such as yours, pop up in this forum. My usual assumption is they come from professional disinformation spreaders, although that may not be entirely fair. It's always possible those kind of posts come from folks so hopelessly ignorant it's a mystery how they acquired an opinion in the first place." Talk about disinformation, you're the one who called the President a traitor. You complain that Atta's computer wasn't searched. I pointed out that Moussaoui's (who was in custody) computer wasn't searched, because the FBI field office couldn't get an warrant. You countered that this was the second one to be turned down in 12,000 requests. I looked up 12,000 warrant requests and Moussaoui, and I found that the warrants were for WIRETAPS (I have also read about 12,000 COVERT warrants). As Moussaoui was in custody, a search of his computer hard drive wouldn't have been exactly covert. Is it possible that a warrant to search a person's personal property (like his hard drive) is viewed differently than communications over phone lines (or email)?
