Newsmax – by Sandy FitzgeraldThere has been a great deal of speculation about the reasons for the disappearance of a Malaysia Airlines flight just over three weeks ago, but there’s no evidence of terrorism, said Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein.
“So far, there’s been none,” the California Democrat told CNN’s Candy Crowley on Sunday’s “State of the Union” program. “There’s speculation, but there’s nothing.”
Feinstein noted the situation is “very hard” because searchers and officials “don’t have what they need to carefully calculate a reasonable area where they plane may be. This is a very difficult mission.”
There are many nations participating in the search, Feinstein said, “but there is no real method of calculation that is functioning very well.”
Crowley noted that some of the satellite photos coming from the area where the plane is suspected to have landed are not as clear as other satellite photos can be. She showed the difference between photos of the ocean and satellite photos taken of Osama Bin Laden’s compound a few years ago, and asked if more sophisticated satellites could target the suspected crash site.
“I’m not going to go in to what we do have or what we don’t have,” Feinstein said. “You have to understand that American intelligence doesn’t gear itself to be ready for plane crashes.”
Meanwhile, Feinstein said that she is sure that if asked, U.S. intelligence services would provide whatever data they have. She stressed that Malaysia is in charge of the investigation, and the United States can offer its advice, “but you can’t demand.”
Also on Sunday’s show, Feinstein discussed her ongoing issues with the CIA over allegations it searched a congressional computer network. She voiced her objections in a dramatic speech on the Senate floor in early March, and told Crowley Sunday that her words on that day should stand on the incident.
“I don’t know if you’ve noticed I have done no press on this, after I did a 40-minute speech,” Feinstein said. “I believe it is accurate and those words should stand.”
But while Feinstein has asked for an apology from the CIA and a statement that congressional computer networks would not be searched, that has not happened.
“The CIA went into walled off Senate computers being used in a bona fide investigation that’s being done on the detention and interrogation of detainees” said Feinstein. “It isn’t the first time, [they did this] it’s the third time.”
But despite their differences, Feinstein said she and the CIA “are on speaking terms” and had a good hearing about Syria this past Thursday.
“We are in the process of beginning a fuller investigation on all the intelligence programs of this country,” said Feinstein. The irony is that the National Security Agency’s program of data collection is the most-overseen program we have, and there thousands of other programs that need a look at.”
President Barack Obama has said he wants a bill to transfer storage of phone data away from the NSA and leave it with phone companies, who would need to turn over information only when a warrant is served, a plan with which Finstein agrees.
“The issue is whether the telecoms are willing to hold this data,” said Feinstein. “When we talked with them, they were not.”
She said it’s likely that if the storage bill is passed, phone companies would “have to be compelled legislatively in a bill and be provided with liability immunity.”

Urgent: Should Obamacare Be Repealed? Vote Here Now!
Dear Feinstein,
YOU ARE THE TERRORISTS!
Why in the world would ANYONE believe that you would find, that your FELLOW TERRORISTS managed one of the heists of the new century??!! (After all,.. STEALING an entire 777-200,.. WHILE IN FLIGHT,…. is a pretty niffty trick you guys pulled off,… congratulations)
JD – US Marines – NEVER FORGET – One way or another, the International Banksters are behind all these so called, “Acts-Of-Terrorism”. The Banksters and their henchmen ARE the global terrorists.
.
Why does anyone care what this person says?
by her saying it wasn’t, that is a direct sign that it was in fact the opposite of what ever she says it isnt
My Fellow Patriots:
Yeahhhhhhhh!!!!!,…. I’m sure that’s happened for real !!!
Hmmmmm,… lets see,… I’m betting it went something like this:
Just after the flight is highjacked, either with the pilots help, or by cyber-jacking the FCS (Flight-Control-Systems),….
Accomplice (Acc) – (The plant sitting as a passenger,… then springs into action to assist with the highjacking…)
Acc: Ladies and Gentlemen,… this flight has been highjacked, we ask you to co-operate fully, in which case you will be released safely after we have landed,.. or we will execute you the moment you give us trouble! (They just want the passengers to co-operate, and don’t tell them they are going to be executed anyway…)
Philip Wood (PW): (Thinking to himself) – Damn!,.. we just got highjacked!,.. good thing I brought my extra small iphone!,… I know,.. I’ll shove it up my ass until later on to send a text message,.. rather than right now while I have it in my hands!,… Yeah,.. thats the ticket!
Wood’s then spends the next few minutes jamming his iphone up his ass without trying to draw any attention to himself.
Highjacking Accomplice gets to his row –
Acc: Sir,.. please surrender your cell phone, laptop or any other electronic devices….
Woods: (thinking quick) – Gee,.. I packed my phone and laptop into my checked luggage and don’t have them on me.
Acc: (Checks him quick) – Ok,… place your hands in front (Acc zip-ties them),… and I am going to place this bag over your head,.. you will be able to hear and breath fine,… you just won’t be able to see (Acc places bag over his head)
Woods: (Thinking to himself) – Whew!!!,… good thing I jammed that iphone way up my ass……..
Someone from front of plane: He doesn’t have a phone on him!??,… you better check his ass and see if he jammed it up there!!! Hahahahaha,… just kidding,.. I’m sure he didn’t do that!
Several hours later –
Woods: Wow,.. its been awhile now,… I better see if I can pull that iphone out of my ass and send a text,… (grunting quitely….)
– Finally manages to pull the phone out of his ass,.. and its a bit slippery,.. and REALLY smelly,.. but he preseveres,.. and manages a text….
And there you have it people,… a description of the most likely scanerio.
Good thing Woods thought quick!!!!
JD – US Marines – Who knew the average person could fit an iphone clean up there ass??
JD. Loved that. thanks for the laugh. 🙂
OPPSssss!
I meant to post that reponse on the other article that talks about the IBM tech (Philip Woods) that pulled an iphone out of his ass, and sent a text message!
Sorry about that,….. – JD
Hey I figured that anyway. Still enjoyed it. 🙂
You did have me scratching my head over that one, JD. LOL
@JD the trick would be to figure out what Feinstein has stuck up her azz.
