| Only 1 day after the Pentagon released a statement about their new disinformation campaign, our favourite "Pentagon/CIA" Channel ABC promotes "their investigation" about an early warning, however was unable to research all other early warnings.
And no suprise..all for a sudden the name of new evil Abu Zubaida appears.
A smart try to implicate that the danger came from middle east only and nothing about the sabotage of other early warnings.
Is this is another try to confuse conspiracy theorists?

"..ABCNEWS has learned that shortly before Sept. 11, NSA intercepts detected multiple phone calls from Abu Zubaida, bin Laden's chief of operations, to the United States. The intercepts were never passed on.
"We do have a joint antiterrorism center, and that is a failure of information consolidation and analysis," said Rudman. "It obviously (a) wasn't consolidated and (b) wasn't analyzed. I mean, those are serious shortcomings."
After the Fact
All three reports recognized the shortcomings and made recommendations including closer monitoring of student visas, the creation of a homeland security office, the freezing of financial assets that supported terrorism, and more coordination between the CIA and the FBI on intelligence.
But, the reports' authors say, their recommendations went largely unheeded.
Bremer said that no action was taken on any of his commission's recommendations — until the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon: "Interestingly, since Sept. 11 almost every one of our recommendations has either been enacted by the executive branch or been put into law by Congress, which suggests that we probably had a pretty good menu of things to do before Sept. 11."
NOTE:
Both ABC and NSA didn't tell who Al Zubaida called.
