Where was the FBI before 911 in all this? Inquiring minds would like to know.

Yeah.It's not what you'd call really useful information...
I mean; don't they have some terrorists out there who haven't gone looking for Allah yet ??
I would kind of wonder whether the person hours (?) might not be better utilized .

Not that I'm a defender of the FBI, but... didn't we see a wee change in the definition, or at least connotation, of "hijack" a few months ago?

What inquiring minds would like to know is: Which, if any, of the current threat warnings is real? What threats should we be looking into, and what threats can we safely ignore? Please tell us in advance so we can focus our limited resources there.
