<\/a>By Max Holland, Washington Decoded<\/p>\n

In a revelation bound to cast a pall over the 9\/11 Commission, Philip Shenon will report in a forthcoming book that the panel’s executive director, Philip Zelikow, engaged in “surreptitious” communications with presidential adviser Karl Rove and other Bush administration officials during the commission’s 20 – month investigation into the 9\/11 attacks.<\/p>\n

Shenon, who led The New York Times’ coverage of the 9\/11 panel, reveals the Zelikow – Rove connection in a new book entitled The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9\/11 Investigation, to be published next month by TWELVE books. The Commission is under an embargo until its February 5 publication, but Washington DeCoded managed to purchase a copy of the abridged audio version from a New York bookstore.<\/p>\n

In what’s termed an “investigation of the investigation,” Shenon purports to tell the story of the commission from start to finish. The book’s critical revelations, however, revolve almost entirely around the figure of Philip Zelikow, a University of Virginia professor and director of the Miller Center of Public Affairs prior to his service as the commission’s executive director. Shenon delivers a blistering account of Zelikow’s role and leadership, and an implicit criticism of the commissioners for appointing Zelikow in the first place – and then allowing him to stay on after his myriad conflicts – of – interest were revealed under oath.<\/p>\n
