And none of those agencies, nsa, cia, knew Bin Laden’s actual plan. They only knew that he was a threat.

Wrong. They knew an attack was imminent. It wasn't some obscure, little general warning saying "Osama Bin Laden" is a threat. It was "a catastrophic attack is in the works."

Define “imminent:” how many minutes, hours, days until the attack was going to happen! And did they know the targets? Unless you can prove they did, then you have an argument that hasn’t been proved to date.
