#1 Maybe surveillance of Islamofascists should give way to assassination, if we value the lives if our own people.

#2 Kalle I agree. I think one of the biggest problems with the FBI and CIA is that they tend to value intelligence gathering over actually stopping crime.

Take for example the cocaine epidemic in the 1970's and 80's. I believe that if they had arrested the primary and secondary US dealers early on, instead of observing them for years, they could have shut these guys down much more effectively. Instead, they gathered more and more intelligence while the network got bigger and bigger - so big that when they finally got their kingpins - the distribution networks were so well established that it was beyond control.

I think they need to stop just gathering intelligence and instead use targeted assinations to disrupt the networks. It seems to me that it would be easier to see whose really in charge if you start taking out links in the chain.

#3 It goes MUCH farther than that. The cops who ignored the warnings had STRONG ties to the socialist party, they had been involved in the "dirty war" (assassinations of ETA people) under the previous socialist governmant of Gonzalez and since Zapatero came to power they have been promoted.
