December 8, 2007, Greencastle, Ind. - "Did they obstruct
our inquiry? The answer is clearly yes," says Lee Hamilton,
who co-chaired the 9/11 Commission, in the wake of reports the
CIA destroyed videotapes of interrogations of two al-Qaida suspects.
"Whether that amounts to a crime, others will have to judge,"
adds Hamilton, a 1952 graduate of DePauw University, in today's
Detroit Free Press.

... Meanwhile, the International Herald Tribune reports "the
former chairmen of the Sept. 11 commission, who said the CIA assured
them repeatedly during their inquiry that no original material
existed from its interrogations of Qaeda figures, said they were
furious to learn about the tapes ... Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton
said they had made clear in hours of negotiations and discussions
with the CIA, as well as in written requests, that they wanted
all material connected to the interrogations of Qaeda operatives
in the agency's custody in order to get a complete understanding
of the events leading up to the Sept. 11 attacks for their 2004
report."
