The anniversary address of Osama bin Laden to mark the attacks of September 11th should be raising alarm bells; however, the Department of Homeland Security is not issuing any new warnings, and instead seems focused on ramping up security for airliners as if to prevent the attack of six years ago.
This illustrates the inability or unwillingness to connect the dots after all these years. I can only believe this stems from the persistent unwillingness of this administration to deal with reality, as opposed to attempting to make reality comport to carefully crafted talking points. Perhaps behind closed doors this is not the case, but in its dealing with the American people, the Bush administration continues to distort progress and downplay the many significant setbacks in its war on terror.
Most importantly, there is the stark refusal to accept this basic tenant: Osama bin Laden is a man of his word and basically says what he's going to do and then does it. I can understand how this may seem like a foreign concept to most politicians and bureaucrats in Washington DC . But it is not new to me. From 1998 to 2003, I managed an open-source intelligence advisory service at a boutique risk management firm in the Washington DC area that catered to investment banks and insurance and energy companies.
I found that al-Qaeda and its affiliates are quite open in talking about their plans at the strategic level. The fact that so much is available in open sources adds to my sense of frustration. The fact that some people who “get it,” like Michael Sheuer, have apparently left government after becoming disillusioned with their inability to affect positive change from within in order to deal with the threat adds to my sense of hopelessness.
