So then that begs the question... How many have to die before the government takes things seriously? Evidently the 1993 WTC bombing and the 1995 bombing of the Murrah federal building weren't enough. Clinton went right on blissfully slashing funding for the CIA, military and other defense and intelligence organs. If that wasn't enough, how about all the rules and restrictions slapped on them during those years? Like the way the CIA was not allowed to recruit foregin agents. This effectively destroyed the humint capability they had and forced them to rely on elint ( electronic intelligence ) to get it done. What have we we been desperately lacking these days in the middle east and elsewhere? Yep, people on the ground passing info on to us that just doesn't get transmitted by electronic means.
