Look at the Globalist Mitt is employing!
Romney adviser at home in the spy world fray
"J. Cofer Black... who is now Mitt Romney's chief adviser on counterterrorism and national security... is facing more scrutiny for his current role as a top executive of Blackwater Worldwide.
Black, who did not respond to requests for an interview, is a fervent promoter of an expanded role for Blackwater... told the Special Operations Forces Exhibition in Jordan, according to Defense News, a military publication:
"Blackwater spends a lot of time thinking, 'How can we contribute to the common good?' "
In August, a report by the CIA's inspector general on accountability for Sept. 11 found problems with Black's Counterterrorist Center, however. The report said the center had a "nearly exclusive focus" on individual operations to root out terrorists that resulted in "many successes," but it did not have an overall strategy for combating terrorism.
It said the center knew in 2000 that two of the Sept. 11 hijackers, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, may have been in the United States, but the center never gave the information to the FBI. It said that the center's bin Laden unit had an excessive workload and that most of its officers lacked experience, expertise, and training.
No kidding? I heard the agencies worked closely together!
And what about Able Danger?
Tired of the LIES, readers?
Although that is more likely a truth; bin Laden's case handlers were working with him at the time!
After Sept. 11, 2001, Black's power grew.
On Sept. 13, 2001, he delivered a theatrical pitch to President Bush in the White House situation room, popping up and down in his chair and throwing paper on the floor as he made the case for a CIA operation against Al Qaeda and the Taliban.
Black declared, according to "Bush at War," by Bob Woodward:
"When we're through with them, they will have flies walking across their eyeballs."
The phrase was so indelible, Woodward writes, that Black became known in Bush's inner circle as "the flies-on-the-eyeballs guy."
Black [joined] Blackwater in February 2005. This year, he helped launch Total Intelligence Solutions, a company that "brings CIA-style intelligence services to Fortune 500" companies, according to its website.
In April, Romney named Black his "senior adviser for counterterrorism and national security issues," and, in September, the chairman of his 10-member "Counterterrorism Policy Advisory Group."
Romney often invokes Black when talking about terrorism.
Romney boasted to voters in Iowa last month:
"One of my advisors is a man named Cofer Black who for 25 or 30 years was the head of counterterrorism for the CIA. And they talk about a circumstance where if you know that there is a bomb in America that is going to go off and kill American lives, then what kind of interrogation technique can you use against that individual . . . Torture? No. But [saying] precisely what we're going to do and publish[ing] that for the bad guys? We're not doing that either. Not in my view."
Translation: "Yes, I would authorize torture" -- Mitt Romney
