Everyone remembers the moment they learned that airborne terrorists had attacked America. Two days later, a colleague at work took me aside and told me a startling story. It was about his son, a recent college graduate, who worked for the Enterprise car rental company in Rockland, Maine.
On 9/12, two FBI agents showed up at Rockland Enterprise and demanded information concerning a car they had unknowingly rented to one of the 9/11 terrorists. They told the employees to never reveal this to anyone, that it was a matter of national security.
Seventeen years go by and I find myself a freelance journalist with a local community newspaper. I approached my former colleague and gained permission to interview his son.
He told me that he was present when the car was rented and when two FBI agents showed up on 9/12. He identified, by photo, Mohamed Atta, the leader of the terrorists, as the person who had rented the car.
I submitted a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the FBI on June 17, 2019. It requested copies of the information collected by the FBI on 9/12.
On June 26, 2019 I received 9/11 investigation information that had been released under previous FOIA requests. I emailed the FBI FOIA office and demanded the specific information that I had originally requested.
On October 16, 2019 I received a letter from the FBI closing my FOIA request. The letter states “The FBI has completed its search for records responsive to your request. The material you requested is located in an investigative file which is exempt from disclosure …”
“COVER-UP: How the FBI Hid the True Origins of the 9/11 Terrorist Attack” is a collection of 45 articles written by the author over a seven year period. They chronicle the political, environmental and economic state of our union.
They also feed into the untold story of Mohamed Atta’s presence in Maine just days prior to the attack. Eventual FBI disclosure of the requested information has the potential to shed light on here-to-fore unknown co-conspirators in the 9/11 tragedy.
