140. Sibel Edmonds on Deborah Norville Msnbc said
1) documents and information were intentionally blocked or mishandled.

2) After her immediate Supervisor did nothing, she reported it to Asst. FBI director Dale Watson and then to Director Mueller.

3) When they did nothing she went to the Justice Dept Inspector General

4) The Turkish translator put aside documents containing names of people with whom he was familiar

5) the translation area was holding back documents so they could say they had a big backlog and could ask for more budget money. She would
work on a document one day, and the next day find her work erased on the same document so that it would have to be done over.

6)the translation department showed no sense of urgency even though
the FBI field agents were desperate for translated information.

7)none of her allegations were disproved

8)FB officials confirmed all her allegations but the information is being classified retroactively (even though some in Congress have
heard it)

9) None of the issues she brought up have been addressed (fixed) by the agency.

10)Unqualified translators still in charge of the "chatter"

11) (durn) she stated in answer to a question that something was in the Farsi language (I missed what - is there a transcript anywhere?)

I think we have a right to know what was told to Congress and was not
classified until it was going to be an embarrassment or worse to the
government.

And that's what our letters to every Congresscritter should be about.
