Gullibility or stupidy. If you are involved in intelligence operations or their oversight one might take you seriously.

I'm not. Are you involved in intelligence operations or their oversight giving you a more informed stance? If not, then how can you stand by what you stated earlier?

You've yet to give me another example similar to this one!

Nothing was said that couldn't have been said in open forum.
And it's huge, not hugh. Sorry for being the spelling police, but that was really horrible. Now I know where the joke comes from.

"Gullibility or stupidy. If you are involved in intelligence operations or their oversight one might take you seriously."

When to cease surveillance and prosecute is a judgement call.

While it might be hard to say in this case, intelligence's judgement is known to have erred on the side of continued surveillance as evidenced by the planes that hit the WTC when there was surveillance that terrorists were training for something involving crashing planes.
