The Sibel Edmonds case--why doesn't anyone care?

Of all the shocking stories that the news media has either ignored or completely distorted, none is as potentially combustible as that of FBI whistle-blower Sibel Edmonds. Now that the Vanity Fair story is coming out, some bloggers are talking about her again, and it is disturbing to learn how many people--including scores of liberals--have no idea who she is. I have never stopped talking about her because I suspect that the government is more desperate to keep her quiet than most people can imagine.

If you still have not read her letter to Thomas Kean, please do so, though bear in mind that it omits some important things. A search of DED Space will also provide a history of the government's continuing suppression of her testimony. For reasons that I do not understand, the blogosphere has never become especially involved with the Sibel Edmonds case, despite bloggers' continuing preoccupation with September 11.

The Sibel Edmonds tapes very likely provide the pathway to information that is essential for all Americans to know, and that is not pretty.
