In a truth-is-stranger-than-fiction posting, the FBI has listed 9/11 as one of its 10 most shining moments in the past 100 years. The Bureau’s web page notes:
“The attacks quickly became the most massive investigation in our history, with a quarter of all agents and support personnel directly involved. And even before the dust settled, we had a new overriding mission: to stop terrorists before they strike. The FBI had prevented dozens of terrorist plots before 9/11—including nearly 60 during the 1990s alone.”
Except for the one attack that succeeded. Those who question the need for FBI reform, look no further.
