There were two posts the other night on FR from former Navy intel officers, and they said that if the public knew half of what went on in the world that posed a threat to this nation, none of us would ever sleep at night.

I'm all in favor of opening the flood gates of intelligence and letting the sheeple know how dangerously close they come every day to being a grease spot on the pavement.

I think that would be wise and marvelously potent.

Did they give any details/examples that would be worth asking for a pointer to?

"as Congress studies whether the government failed to heed warning signs."

Putting this together with the comment of the Navy Intel guys, I am led to believe that there are so many threats out there one scarcely knows where to direct one's attention. It is more an issue of what to do about warning signs than it is "failing to heed" them.
