Hour 3
Susan Lindauer
Topic for today is peacetime martial law in America
As a U.S. Intelligence Asset, Susan Lindauer covered
anti-terrorism at the Iraqi Embassy in New York from 1996 up to the
invasion. Independent sources have confirmed that she gave advance
warning about the 9/11 attack. She also started talks for the Lockerbie
Trial with Libyan diplomats. Shortly after requesting to testify before
Congress about successful elements of Pre-War Intelligence, Lindauer
became one of the first non-Arab Americans arrested on the Patriot Act
as an “Iraqi Agent.” She was accused of warning her second cousin, White
House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and Secretary of State Colin Powell
that War with Iraq would have catastrophic consequences. Gratis of the
Patriot Act, her indictment was loaded with “secret charges” and “secret
evidence.” She was subjected to one year in prison on Carswell Air
Force Base in Fort Worth, Texas without a trial or hearing, and
threatened with indefinite detention and forcible drugging to shut her
up. After five years of indictment without a conviction or guilty plea,
the Justice Department dismissed all charges five days before President
Obama’s inauguration.
