Weldon Says Able Danger Data Was Not Destroyed!!!

Able Danger Blog has the transcript of Rep. Weldon's Able Danger press conference today. There is major breaking news here:

It's very troubling to me that it appears as though the DOD witness did not tell the truth. We had testimony that all of the Able Danger data-mining material was destroyed. I now know that that's not the case. In fact, I now know there's data still available. And I am in contact with people who are still able to data mining runs on pre-9/11 data. In those data runs that are now being done today, in spite of what DOD said, I have 13 hits on Mohammed Atta, spelled Mu and Mo. Not Mohammed Attif, not Mohammed Attel; Mohammed Atta. Thirteen times we have hits in the data that's still available, that we were told was destroyed. That was pre-9/11 data, where Mohammed Atta's name was spelled two different ways, but it was Mohammed Atta.

The Able Danger hearing is tomorrow, Wednesday, at 2:30 PM. I expect to liveblog it and upload the audio in the evening.
