What's Up At Giuliani Central Hub?

By The Prowler

A Senate Intelligence Committee staffer says that in recent updates to the committee, and in briefing individual Senators, national security and national intelligence officials have indicated that they have gained "no actionable intelligence" from interviews with the so-called "Christmas Day" or "underwear bomber," Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. This, after White House officials had told reporters that Abdulmutallab was cooperating with law enforcement and national intelligence officials, and that the information was helpful.

Stop Plea Bargaining
With Terrorists!

Less than an hour into the FBI's interrogation of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab – the Nigerian al Qaeda operative who attempted to blow up a plane over Detroit on Christmas Day – the U.S. Justice Department intervened from Washington and instructed agents to read Abdulmutallab his Miranda rights. Intelligence officials have indicated that subsequent interrogations have resulted in "no actionable intelligence."

The American Spectator and its readers are calling on President Obama to stop prioritizing spin over security and try Mr. Abdulmutallab under a military tribunal. Learn more.
