A twist here is that Shaffer has had a run-in with the DIA before. In 2003, the agency disputed his claim that a secret intelligence operation in which he participated, code named Able Danger, had uncovered information about the Sept. 11 hijackers before the attacks but did not share it. Three years later, Shaffer lost his DIA security clearance.

Zaid, his attorney, says it was "miscommunication" among Pentagon agencies that accounted for the DIA's not seeing Shaffer's manuscript earlier, and he suspects the DIA is now punishing Shaffer in part out of lingering anger over the Able Danger episode.

I remember reading an article countering Shaffer's claims. It looks like he has a credibility problem and got fired, and is trying to get back at the Pentagon. Where and whom are the Able Danger team members he spoke to that uncovered information about 9-11 hijackers and they did not share it?

Sadly, his attempt to screw the Pentagon has apparently led to American tax dollars been spent to fix the problem.
