I think al qaeda, bin laden, and the nations/organizations that fund them are to blame. I don't think any agency or individual in the U.S. is responsible for "allowing" it to happen unless you are talking about the regulations put in place years ago preventing our intelligence-gathering agencies from effective communicating and cooperating with each other, or the political correctness which prevented agents from investigating leads pointing to arab terrorists for fear of "ethnic profiling" accusations.
Other than that, perhaps officials at top levels in the previous administration who refused a Sudanese offer to deliver bin laden to us a couple of years earlier. Condi had nothing to do with ANY of these items.
yes

Yes - among other failures.
or the political correctness which prevented agents from investigating leads pointing to arab terrorists for fear of "ethnic profiling" accusations.
Yes
And the laws that allowed for terrorists to easily come to America.
And not taking threats seriously, and mandating that the CIA, FBI etc. concentrate on terrorism.
And not being proactive enough in going after terroist organizations.
