FBI Burying Doc Showing US Officials Stole Nuclear Secrets?
BoingBoing is reporting that the FBI may be burying the existence of a document that proves US officials stole nuclear secrets for eventual sale to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. "One of the documents relating to the case was marked 203A-WF-210023. Last week, however, the FBI responded to a freedom of information request for a file of exactly the same number by claiming that it did not exist. But The Sunday Times has obtained a document signed by an FBI official showing the existence of the file. Edmonds believes the crucial file is being deliberately covered up by the FBI because its contents are explosive. She accuses the agency of an 'outright lie.'"
How is that news?

But it doesn't make a lot of sense.
Turkish and Israeli-run network ??
okay Turkey is mostly Islamic Israel really tends to not get along with Islamic countries. selling nuclear weapons info to Saudi Arabia and Pakistan wouldn't be logical for Israel.
So we have on person saying this happened with no proof.
Seems really thin. Not saying it is impossible but also not exactly proven.
I tried to find document "193C-QW-120014". That document proves that Al Gore actually conspired with the 9/11 attackers to kill Bush and to drive up oil prices so he could make money off his movie! When I filed for it I was told that it also didn't exist.
See my blog http://ilovecookes.blogspot.com/ for light hearted technical information.
Putting it on the Internet would make it just another "conspiracy theory site". She needs to broadcast the evidence so it can't be covered up or ignored. How many people watch "60 Minutes" versus some Web site they never heard of? How many people other than geeks have ever heard of Slashdot?
Hell, I can't even get major blog sites like Talking Points Memo to refer to Edmonds stuff. It's very doubtful the blogosphere would cover this story enough to get it known to the general public (although some have - Antiwar.com has been covering Edmonds since day one.)
The US media has not covered her evidence - only the fact that she has made allegations and been gagged for making them. And the whole point is that the media isn't willing to break the gag order even for what would clearly be the biggest story in years - massive treason by elected and appointed US officials. Why? For the same reason the media doesn't really do investigative reporting that would really shake the Establishment - because they are part of the Establishment. This shouldn't be "news" to anyone.
There's no "price tag" attached, and there is plenty of hard evidence. Edmonds can cite chapter and verse from her time at the FBI, and an official investigation at the FBI deemed her allegations "credible" and that her firing was in retaliation. There would be no problem finding out whether she has "hard evidence".
Skepticism in most cases is warranted, but not in this one.
