director robert muller and his experts have warned about new york's top cop says the suspect was radicalized by the teachings of u.s. born cleric anwar a lot. even thing here is that the media also left out a few very crucial details turns out that intel had help from a neighbor in upper manhattan who happened to be and why p.t. informant and the f.b.i. was aware of from intel but they chose to pass on the case now original reports assume that it was because the f.b.i. was doing a bad job but it turns out even they could tell something was fishy to pretty important elements of the story and i think that's right so while bloomberg and n.y.p.d. commissioner raymond kelly spoke at length about the danger of the suspect in custody they left out the role of its neighbor let me give you a few details here the neighbor and wife played a very central role in planning the attack he provided an area for the suspect to build bombs also serve as a companion to him and tell all the n.y.p.d. as intelligence division built their case and according to the new york times the informant smoked marijuana with t

muller who testified before the senate judiciary committee yesterday said he still had concerns so we know that the head of the f.b.i. is not happy with the language that supposedly makes the f.b.i.'s role ok and the only thing that's really left is this is and it's not just i mean i think the administration's concern is not just that they want to be able to indefinitely detain people including american citizens but the language that they use to justify the killing of anwar who remember is an american citizen all comes out of this detention language in fact they actually cited some supreme court rulings that said well the police can chase somebody down and if they kill him if they use deadly force in chasing somebody down because he wouldn't be arrested easily that's ok they use that language on detention to authorize the killing of all aki so i think that's one of the things they wanted to make sure that they left the legal structures they put in place to justify the a lackey killing was an american citizen untouched so it's not just that they wanted indefinite detention they didn't

test with jamie he could of course he represents exactly the kind of threat there for you i direct to robert muller and his experts had warned about new york's top cop says the suspect was radicalized by the teachings of us born cleric a lot of. so the conditions are perfect he was said to have ties to al a lot he planned building a bomb and converted to islam on the surface it looks like a cut and dry terrorism incident stop before anything could happen and of course mayor michael bloomberg and y.p. chief ray kelly held a press conference praising law enforcement for stopping this attack before was carried out. you were. going to spread. the robber is that screws with one of them. now it's funny that bloomberg added f.b.i. is robert mueller interest speech because the f.b.i. was actually involved in this case at all in fact the f.b.i. was aware the n.y.p.d. had been tracking him intel for two years but the feds never felt that he was a serious threat because he was mentally unstable and they declined opportunities to take the man down so that's why the family was the defendant was arrested

muller the current director determined how deep president bush's electronic surveillance was going spawning on americans he pushed back and he told the president you get this program but inside the law side the boundaries of the law or i quit now local didn't happen to the f.b.i. director had resigned in protest bush's government were to fall ok but at the same time we then saw the congress step in and decide to just change the laws so that the wiretapping program could also neatly fit into a if we also talked about this file of work crimes what would what was the results of it i think there may have been some good intentions there but you know but has it also been expanded in many ways that haven't necessarily actually produced good results that have brought liberty back to the american people in that sense. well look back over the history of the f.b.i. which is dominated by j. edgar hoover who ran the f.b.i. for forty eight consecutive years bugging wiretapping spying on americans breaking and entering over was the law. today i think we have a better balance we've got a president who unde
