"Further, the report said word of the gun-smuggling operation within DHS never traveled beyond Arizona -- and claimed Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director John Morton and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano were never informed of the role ICE played."
The Inspector General Office of DHS has issued a report on ATF's Operation Fast and Furious much like the IG report issued by DOJ. It was all the fault of the agents in Arizona, and the suits in Washington-in this case, Janet Napolitano and ICE Director John Norton- were never told.

Even if that is true, and I don't believe it for a moment, Napolitano and Morton should be fired for gross incompetence.
Operation Fast and Furious though spearheaded by ATF, was a task force operation in that other federal agencies were involved to one extent or another. If DHS's Washington people knew nothing, why was there a joint meeting on F and F that involved the heads of several of the federal agencies involved?

This continues to stink. In this case, the worker bees are sacrificed to save the queen bee.
Again, let's see what is going on here:
ReplyDeleteBig Sis does not know about Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the release of over 2000 illegals from jail, illegals are coming across the southern border and she cannot stop it. Big Sis buys 1.6 billion bullets (some sniper rounds) for the homeland and refuses to tell Congress why she is making the buy (Congress will defund her if she does not comply). She considers Vets and Patriots as terrorists and the Islamist terrorists, moderate folks. The Fort Hood shooting is "workplace violence" (my ass).
Gary, is this enough for another award?
Feeling safe folks?

ReplyDeleteSiarlys, you should be aware by now that an "official" report is not necessarily either accurate or valid.
