My Comment: We should not be surprised. Al Qaeda/Talaban detainees have been released from Guantanamo .... and are returning to the battlefield. The CIA is under investigation for renditions, torture, and any other conduct that the White House regards as unacceptable today .... hence the lack of motivation from our intelligence agencies to conduct operations. Mass murderers like the planners for 9/11 are now being awarded US constitutional rights in front of a court room .... and are more than happy to take such a platform. And what is worse is that instead of bringing the battle to them, we are now waiting for them to strike us ..... and strike us they will.
