Rohrabacher, DanaOn April 5, 2001 Massoud had a message for Bush at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France: "If President Bush doesn't help us," he replied in Persian, according to a recording of his remarks translated by Afghan allies, "then these terrorists will damage the United States and Europe very soon, and it will be too late." http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&node=&contentId=A8802-2002Jan19 A few weeks later, some unknown CIA officers travelled into northern Afghanistan and gave Massoud cash and supplies in small amounts in exchange for intelligence on al Qaeda. At basically the same time, Republican Congressman Dana Rohrabacher "conducted secret and illegal negotiations with the Taliban while on a trip paid for by Islamic and Egyptian support organizations", charged his Democratic challenger, Gerrie Schipske. http://www.schipske4congress.org/afghanstn.html ìRohrabacher traveled to the United Arab Emirate of Qatar and conducted secret, unauthorized negotiations with Osama bin Ladenís protÈgÈ - Taliban Foreign Minister Walid Ahmad Mutawakel in April 2001,î said Schipske. The Arab news media reports that Rohrabacher pressured the Government of Qatar to set up a private meeting between him and the Talibanís Foreign Minister. ìRohrabacher met with Mutawakel and gave him a document that outlined his own ëpersonal peace planí and told Mutawakel to take it back to the Taliban,î Schipske explains. ìIt is simply outrageous that this rogue Congressman engaged in negotiations with the Taliban. He needs to explain why he tried to cut a deal on his own and what he promised the Taliban during the meeting.î Schipske urged Rohrabacher to release whatever documents he handed to the Taliban leader. Rohrabacherís secret dealings came to light after his 2001 Financial Disclosure was released in late July 2002 showing a trip to Qatar paid for by both the Egypt International Forum and the Islamic Institute. Rohrabacher and George Tenet have known each other for years. They both worked in 1998 together on a satellite controversy with the Intelligence Committee. http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/1998/06/08/cq/china.html Rohrabacher is member of the Afghanistan - America Foundation, a non-profit, non-partisan, independent organization located in Washington, D.C., a few blocks from the U.S. Capitol building. This Foundation is honored to have as its National Honorary Co-Chairmen two former White House National Security Advisors, Dr. Zbigniew Brzezinski (->) and Gen. Brent Scowcroft (->). Closely advising and working with the Foundation are Dr. Zalmay Khalilzad, RAND Corp.; Dr. Tom Gouttierre, Director of the Center for Afghanistan Studies, University of Nebraska, Omaha, and Vice-President of the Afghanistan - America Foundation. Dr. Frederick Starr, former President of Oberlin College and now Chairman of the Central Asia-Caucasus Institute at the School for Advanced International Studies (SAIS ->) of Johns Hopkins University; and Dr. Barnett Rubin, Council on Foreign Relations, serve on the Foundation's White Paper Task Force. Afghanistanfoundation.org was created by Gal Moran in Tel Aviv.

He was accompanied by his Special Assistant, Al Santoli, a national security and Asia-Pacific expert, and Jeffrey Baxter [traveling on private resources], an advisor on anti-ballistic missile systems and a special reserve officer with the Los Angeles Police Department Anti-Terrorism Unit. In Manila, the CODEL was joined by Paul Berkowitz, a professional staff member of the Committee. The delegation investigated national security, international crime and drug trafficking, and human rights issues in Taiwan, the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia and in the Golden Triangle of the Thai-Burma border. On July 12, 2000, (at a U.S. Congressional Committee Mtg) Rep. Dana Rohrabacher bitterly "charged the U.S. State Department with pretending to oppose bin Laden and the Taliban while actually secretly supporting them." (ibid, see tenc.com "Congressman"). http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/Scoop_INVESTIGATION_Sept_11th1.htm In September 2002, Rohrabacher had been part of an investigation, possibly because of this comment one year earlier and the Taliban warning of Muttawakil (->) : "...behind the Taliban is and was Saudi Arabia. During the war against the Russians, the Saudis provided the Afghan resistance with hundreds of millions of dollars. ....I met with the head of Saudi intelligence, the man responsible for providing that money to the Afghans during the war, the $200 million or so, or whatever it was that the Saudis provided to the Afghans. His name was General Turkey." About his appointment: "The day before the attack on the world trade towers and the Pentagon, there was an attempt to kill Commander Massoud. Many of us thought he was dead, he was reported dead, but he struggled for life for another 5 days and just died 2 days ago. However, the attack on Commander Massoud; and I knew him, I had met him in Afghanistan. By the way, I will just say that I have been in and out of Afghanistan several times in these last few years. The last time I went in was to see Commander Massoud. The attack on the commander told me something terrible was about to happen, something terrible was about to happen, because Massoud was someone that bin Laden understood that if he did something that would make the United States or someone else very angry at him, that Massoud was someone that would be turned to immediately by our side to ally with. So before the attack on the World Trade Towers and on the Pentagon, bin Laden and his terrorists attacked Commander Massoud and, unfortunately, succeeded in killing him and eliminating Commander Massoud from the equation today. I was so concerned about this, understanding that this was telling us that something horrible was going to happen, that I made an appointment to see the top officials in the White House in the National Security Council. My appointment with the National Security Council at the White House was to warn them that this attack on Massoud obviously meant something big was about to happen. My appointment was for 2:30 that afternoon. Unfortunately, at 8:45 that morning, the first plane slammed into the World Trade Center..." Source: http://www.politicsol.com/guest-commentaries/2001-09-18.html According the Reuters News (9-24-2001), U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) met with the Taliban leader Muttawakil on Tuesday, April 10. ìThe meeting was purely unofficial and was organized at the insistence of the U.S. congressman,î said a Qatari diplomat. Moreover, Doha-based Al-Jazeera satellite television said ìthe two sides also discussed Osama bin Laden and the situation of women and public freedom.î Curiously, besides Rohrabacher, Qatarís Al-Raya News agency specifically reported that ìthe controversial Taliban meeting [with Osama bin Ladenís associate] was also attended by other U.S. congressmen in Doha, [Qatar ] for a conference.î That other U.S. legislators besides Rohrabacher met with the Taliban leader was reported by the Associated Press and Agence France Presse. Source: Tom Flocco http://www.scoop.co.nz/mason/stories/HL0209/S00033.htm http://www.rense.com/general29/snu.htm On Sep11th, 2001, Rohrabacher, who was once fighting with the mujahedin (->), described the attack as "the result of a deal between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and, unfortunately, the United States." ...I was thwarted by our own State Department. NGOs with aid for Afghans who were in areas that were controlled by the Taliban, on the other hand, had no trouble with our government. and more disturbing: Several years ago during the Clinton administration contacted the CIA to let them know that I had an informant who knew exactly where bin Laden was, that he was out of Afghanistan, and that he was willing to pinpoint bin Laden for them. I gave them my contact's phone number. They never called. After a week, I called my friend back and said, Did the CIA get with you? No. I went to the CIA again and explained that this person had impeccable credentials of knowing what was going on in Afghanistan. They would get to him, but they did not. A week later they still had not called. Then I went and complained to the chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Goss), whom I respect; and I told him what happened. The next day he had a meeting in this building with representatives of the NSA, the CIA, and the FBI. It was the bin Laden task force. I told them what had happened and that my friend could pinpoint bin Laden, and that he had been ignored for 2 weeks. They would get to it. Guess what, a week later my friend still had not been contacted. By then the trail was cold. But when I went to the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Goss), it got action and my friend was called. He said it was a lackadaisical call. It looked like it was a pro forma call. More: I know of a situation at the Defense Intelligence Agency where a young analyst felt there was a lack of information about Afghanistan and that lack of information was threatening to our national security. She wanted to get the information. She wanted to go up to Massoud's territory and find out what was going on because we did not know what was happening in Afghanistan. She was denied, and she had the gall on her own time, on her own vacation time, to go there to Massoud's stronghold to try to get that information. I think someone like that should get a medal. Instead, she was fired. (-> Julie Sirrs) Again on Massoud: After I had gotten myself together after his death, I knew that it must be because they are going to attack the United States. That is why the Taliban killed him, so we could not have anyone to turn to, to rally behind in our counterattack. So the next day I called the White House. I asked to speak to Condoleezza Rice, and I wanted a meeting with her and the National Security Council because there was an attack that would soon befall the United States of America. They got back to me, and said, Congressman, we take your opinions on Afghanistan and elsewhere very seriously, but we are very busy. Can you come tomorrow? The earliest we can fit you in is 2:00 tomorrow. I woke up on 9-11 expecting to have a meeting with Condoleezza Rice and the National Security Council at the White House to warn them that there was an imminent attack planned on the United States and to take seriously any possible threat that they saw. (Rice had now 3 warnings, by CIA, Gary Hart and Rohrabacher!) http://www.house.gov/rohrabacher/911Speech.html Investigation was cancelled, on October 15th 2002, he profound condolences to the family of Steve 'Webby' Webster, who lost his life "at the hands of terrorists in Indonesia". http://www.house.gov/rohrabacher/webster.html Rohrabachers strange dark past and Robert Kennedy connection: "...Rohrabacher, then a young conservative Republican, was at the Ambassador Hotel on June 5, 1968 the night that RFK was assassinated and was interviewed by LAPD. That murder led to the eventual election of Richard Nixon and the prolongation of the Vietnam War for another seven painful, profitable years..."
