To the Honorable Congressmen Tom Davis and Mark Souder.

I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation and support for your continued opposition to enhancing the whistleblower protection laws. I know this must be extremely difficult on your part particularly since all logic and reasoning is against it.

Your federal agencies that are supposed to be engaged in protecting your country have become bloated, impotent, bureaucratic monsters; wasting billions of tax dollars on frivolous and ineffective security programs. This has been documented repeatedly in your news services. While we strive to bring your country to its knees again by the mass killings of your children you will do this for us anyway by bankrupting your own treasury.

I am still concerned however, about certain, shall we say, tactical areas on your part. You should know by now that your government agencies came very close to thwarting our September 11, 2001 attacks. In particular was your Security Division of the Federal Aviation Administration. A number of these agents of yours actually paid attention to the warning signs that my operatives were giving off. They also knew first hand that your aviation security system was laughable. If your bureaucracies acted upon the warnings of these agents it would have seriously impacted our ability to launch these attacks.

Fortunately, when these agents attempted to work through their normal chain of command to improve aviation security your FAA bureaucrats not only ignored them but had many of the agent’s careers ruined. But these persistent people refused to be deterred. So they went to the Department of Transportation’s Office of Inspector General to try to improve security only to learn that the IG would do nothing other than to give these reports back to FAA. So some of them went to your General Accounting Office (GAO) and attempted to get them to improve aviation security but they learned that the GAO can’t actually do anything unless they get specific directions from your congress. But fortunately your congress did not even pay attention to its own GAO. Next they went directly to the members of congress that were on the various committees that had oversight responsibilities over the FAA and the aviation industry. Fortunately these congress people did nothing. It was this series of events which came perilously close to thwarting our plans IF congress would have done its oversight job of the executive branch the way the citizens of your great satan country thought they were doing it.

But still, one of these agents hoped that your decadent government had some iota of integrity left and filed a whistleblower case against the FAA with the United States Office of Special Counsel. The OSC eventually concluded that the FAA executed its civil aviation security mission in a manner that was, “…a substantial and specific danger to public safety…”, among other things. This caused us some concern for a brief period as I thought your government might actually hold people accountable and start to make it more difficult for us. But your greatness has surpassed even my expectations. Not only was no one held accountable but many of the FAA managers that actively thwarted improvements in security prior to 9-11 have been promoted in either the FAA or the new Transportation Security Administration.

Then your government appointed some lackey political hack in charge of the OSC and this resulted in the staff members of the OSC to file whistleblower cases against their own agency. You made me laugh, and believe me, that is hard for anyone to do. That an agency set up to protect whistleblowers has its own employees filing charges against itself. You are eating yourself, and this is part of our plan.

Then when your Transportation Security Administration took over aviation security in February of 2002, one of the first things the TSA did was to take away all the job duties of the vindicated whistleblower. After a year he was assigned duties on the graveyard shift of an operations center answering telephones. Since then he has been sentenced to an entry level job where he is a threat to neither your bureaucrats nor my operatives.

Your 9-11 Commission did not document these problems within your government; instead blaming no-one and chalking up the government shortcomings to “a failure of imagination”.

You have done most well.

Your recent comments and demonstrated hostility toward whistleblowers (as inane as they are); nevertheless helps my efforts to bring your arrogant and decadent country down to its knees. I would like to offer you honorary membership to al Qaeda for the fine work you are doing for our cause.

Your most grateful friend,

Osama
