A lot of govt agencies are asleep at the wheel or are at the wrong wheel. We should have taken multiple precautions years ago when the first Red Chinese hacker attacks started. They were ignored: the detente mentally of the Bushes, the paid-off clintons, and the totally anti-American, I dont care mentality of the Obama abomination (er Administration).
All this was to be expected and if you thought that it couldn’t happen, then you should have been fired years ago.
THe biggest mistake we have continually made has been to underestimate our enemies, and we have paid for it in many lives (in VN-Laos, the radar site), the USS Cole, WTC I & II, US embassy and Marine barracks in Lebanon, Khobar Towers - Saudi Arabia, etc.
Our leaders have failed us time after time. We need to know why - what mindset they follow that allows this to happen.
Maybe I’ll do a column somewhere on this subject. After 40 years, I know a thing or two about govt mindsets.
They are going to put the barn door hinges under a microscope.
Another big mistake; voting into power/hiring into power, those who believe we have no enemies; save for American Citizen Patriots, that is.
These people are not just asleep at the wheel. They are decidedly indifferent to America's security.
