| Justice Official: Many Signs Pointed to Terrorist Attack |
| 2002-06-01 |
| The United States had ample evidence that a devastating terrorist attack on U.S. soil was likely long before Sept. 11, the Bush administration's top anti-terrorism prosecutor said Friday. Assistant Attorney General Michael Chertoff cited nearly a decade's worth of hints that foreign terrorists were targeting Americans. He did not say that the United States had specific information that could have prevented the Sept. 11 attacks. On Wednesday, FBI Director Robert Mueller said there may have been missed clues before the attacks and suggested that investigators might have uncovered the plot if they had been more diligent about pursuing leads. Oh, for Gawd's sake! Stop with the "where did we go wrong" breast-beating and just do your goddamned job! |
