Coleen Rowley, one of three whistleblowers chosen as persons of the year for 2002 by Time Magazine, will speak about her experiences in the FBI and broader issues of official surveillance and massive data collection. When Coleen Rowley was an FBI agent in Minneapolis, her office got a lead just three weeks before 9/11 that a known extremist had paid $8.000 for lessons to fly a Boeing 747. Her office arrested him, but, her superiors would not allow a full investigation. In a May, 2002 memo to FBI Director Robert Mueller, Rowley brought some of the pre 9-11 lapses to light, calling his defense of the agency a "rush to judgment to protect the FBI at all costs." Several weeks later Rowley testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee about problems facing the FBI and the intelligence community, and her memo to Mueller in connection with the Joint Intelligence Committee's Inquiry led to a two-year Department of Justice Inspector General investigation.

ABC: "Every last detail of that terrible day may never be known, but for those who claim they want the truth, the most simple explanation, that nineteen hijackers inspired by osama bin laden did all this, will never be enough."
The historical 'Treason in America' conference was dedicated to the 3,000 people that died on 9/11/01, the nearly 5,000 U.S. troops in Iraq alone who have since died, including, on April 4th, 2004, Casey Austin Sheehan; the 9/11 first responders who are still giving their lives, and the nearly 1.4 million dead Iraqi civilians.
