What about John McLaughlin’s role in intentionally and deliberately allowing the attacks on 9/11 to take place. While there is no direct evidence of his involvement, there is direct evidence of the involvement of Cofer Black, George Tenet, John Gannon, and the CIA Yemen station, the CIA Pakistan Station, the CIA Bin Laden unit with Richard Blee as its Chief, and Tom Wilshire, Deputy Chief of the Bin Laden unit. Wilshire had been moved over to be Deputy Chief of the ITOS unit at the FBI in mid-May 2001 by Black and Tenet, with the concurrence of Freeh and Rolince, to find out what the FBI Cole criminal investigators knew the Kuala Lumpur meeting, and if they had found out that Mihdhar and Hazmi had been at that meeting with Walid bin Attash actually planning the bombing of the USS Cole. This was the information that the CIA had desperately wanted to keep secret from the FBI Cole bombing investigators ever since Bin Attash had been positively identified on January 4, 2001 in a photograph taken at the Kuala Lumpur al Qaeda planning meeting with Mihdhar and Hazmi actually planning the Cole bombing.
