Fake DHS airline security. Real American suppression.

Whistleblower aircrew want to know why a Terrorist Alert Level Red was not immediately declared last week when would-be terrorists were given flight loopholes by an emploee leaking the security manual, a set-up for a major attack on air passengers. This potentially catastrophic security breach and recent Colgan Air report blaming crew are justifiably alarming considering the top-level national criminal racket infiltrated into the airline industry.

Whistleblowers are not the only ones questioning air safety and national security leaders today. A bipartisan group of U.S. senators want to know why the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Inspector General has allowed suspect individuals – terrorists and drug kingpins – to retain their Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) pilot licenses. (Eric Longabardi and Joseph Rhee, Terrorists, Crooks Allowed to Keep FAA Pilot's Licenses, ABC News, December 18, 2009)

Such actions reflect ongoing, massive DHS fraud and begs the question: Who are Department of Homeland Security making safe and secure, the innocent or terrorists?

A Terrorist Alert Level Red would help protect Federal Air Marshals, passengers and aircrew while Congress investigates this matter.  On behalf of the flying public, Congress oversees FAA to ensure people do not get killed.

"Many a U.S. Navy ship captain have been relieved of their command in the past for errors made by subordinates for much less egregious errors.  As 'Captain of the USS TSA', Ms. Rosside's should be relieved of her command at TSA for refusing to immediately disclose to Congress critical information that potentially puts airline travelers and employees at high risk. President Obama must call for her immediate resignation," stated Captain Dan Hanley, Whistleblowing Airline Employees Association national spokesperson.

Whistleblowers breaking conspiracy of silence

The nationwide criminal racket involving top-level government agencies threatening national security might be involved in both of today's safety and security controversies, both whitewashed thus far: Transportation Security (TSA) leaking the highly classified security information and Colgan Air's accident report to the National Transportation Safety Board blaming the horrific Buffalo crash in February on the cockpit crew, despite ignored whistleblower warnings tat could have prvented the crash.

The conspiracy of silence continues, as during pre-911 oddities.   Illegal, immoral and unethical practices in the airline industry are life-threatening.  The whitewashing also continues.

Former Bell CEO Michael Prieto is calling for active airline and federal employees to speak out now.

"Our passengers depend upon us for their safety as front-line insurance agent employees supported by the association mission statement," stated Captain Hanley.

The Department of Homeland and TSA are responsible for the greatest national and airline passenger security risk since 911, the leaked security manual according to Captain Hanley.

Captain Hanley also highlights the FBI and DOJ refusal to respond to former alleged criminal complaints involving United Airlines and other security issues placing the public in harms way. He is working to give a voice to silenced aircrew whistleblowers.

Thirty-three Aircrew members and fifty Colgan Air deaths are among results of what Barbara Hollingsworth reports as massive infiltration of individuals in the flight industry working against public interest.  These infiltrators continue operating while fatigued, overworked aircrew work in conditions congested airspaces on the planet "worse than the sweatshops of the 1930s" -- and which put "schools, neighborhoods, the environment and the flying public at significant risk each and every day." (Barbara Hollingsworth, FAA, Congress ignore pilots' many safety warnings, Washington Examiner, September 8, 2009)

Whistleblowers reporting these safety and security issues, as federally mandated to do to prevent tragedy and terrorist acts, were silenced, mobbed out of their careers and sent to psychiatrists.

"With all the political rhetoric of change and improvements at the FAA and in Congress, there has been no mention made of forced psychiatric evaluations by airline-appointed mental health professionals, which is the gun being held to the heads of pilots and other employees if they speak out," Hanley told the Examiner.

Anna Schecter and Brian Ross of ABC News reported that TSA's secret airport screening manual with valuable information to criminals may have been posted on-line by a government contract employee or a temp and then, someone tried blacking out evidence that it was secret.

Now the previously secret information about safety and security loopholes are publicly known and well-distributed, just before Christmas travel. Due to lack of government response to protect the public, including not protecting whistleblowers alerting about danger, people are poorly informed or prepared. 

Whitewash has been the standard operating procedure that whistleblowers know only too well. Fired aircrew whistleblowers praise ABC News for reporting these latest events, especially reports on Members of the House Homeland Security Committee probing Transportation Security Administration Acting Administrator Gale Rossides about how such a massive mistake of giving top security information to criminals could have been made.

ABC reported that the document posted on the internet includes information of potential value to terrorists, like X-ray machine shortcomings, screening procedures details, and sample identification for CIA agents, all available for public view. (READ THE SCREENING MANUAL and THE SAMPLE CIA CREDENTIAL)

DHS accountability critical

According to ABS, last week's TSA security breach "serve as a reminder of how critical it is to have accountability at the Department of Homeland Security," said Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., chair of the committee.

At a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing last week, DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano affirmed that the individual who posted the document on-line was a contractor and that "some of the supervisors ultimately were TSA."

TSA employees, wanting anonymity, say that all Information Technology work at TSA is outsourced, and the faulty redaction and posting of the manual was probably done by a contracted employee or temp worker. (Emphasis added)

A TSA spokesperson claimed that only a federal employee can actually upload documents like the Standard Operating Procedures screening manual, and the office that performs redaction is separate from the office that performs the posting, ABC reported.

It is no small wonder that employees want to remain nameless such as the TSA employee providing life-saving information since those that speak out about the high-level corruption are terminated and their lives ruined.

Sensitive Security Information now Available

The person who first posted the manual on the Federal Business Opportunity web site on March 3 forgot to black out "Sensitive Security Information." A cached version of the Federal Business Opportunity website indicates someone noticed the mistake nearly two weeks later. Someone posted a new version of the SOP on March 16th and blacked out "Sensitive Security Information."..... (Read the full story.)

With crooks and terrorists having pilot liceneses, distribution to the world of U.S. airline safety and secuity gaps, and a long list of aircrew members fired for reporting dangerous procedures, crime in the sky looms.

Rather than holding accountable top-level government employees responsible for these actions placing every passenger and neighborhood at risk of death and terror, at a giant Dallas warehouse, pilots are secretly training and getting re-certified to carry guns in the cockpit, preparing for another major attack. (Walt Maciborski, Armed Pilots Prepare for Another Attack, December 15, 2009)

Captain Hanley stated that “while President Obama expresses concern for collateral damage and death to citizens in global combat areas, it is incumbent upon his good office to ensure the same for the millions who travel by commercial air each day in this country. We must call upon our president to launch an intensive investigation concerning this national security breach.”

In response to an official spokesperson minimizing the recent security breach, Captain Hanley stated, "Let the court of public opinion be the judge as to whether this manual was outdated [as whitewashed], given that many procedures contained therein are one-dimensional security processes in place. Let the reader be the judge."

Readers wanting more than to send "bear hugs and smiles" that United is marketing can participate in a public opinion court by commenting on this latest security breach on the Whistleblower website.

Until Americans reclaim the basic right of freedom of speech without persecution and until Americans demand government accountability, the fox will continue ruling the hen-house. DHS, TSA and airline security are proving to be as fake as their war on terror that kidnaps, tortures and kills innocent women, children and men on the ground and in the sky.

    This article poses several legitimate questions that the citizens of this country deserve answers to. Why does it always take smoking wreckage to get the FAA's attention?

    Yesterday's OP-ED in the Washington Times

    [TSA'] problems extend far past airport screening

    Terrorism Service Administration: On too many days, it is easy to forget that the T and the S in TSA stand for "Transportation Security." More to the point would be "Totally Squandered" credibility, "Terminally Sloppy" screening and - most recently - "Transparent Secrets."
