The Lessons of the Foiled Terror Plot

Right On Target.

Key point:

"Our first line of defense is good, actionable intelligence. That definitely includes the most vigorous collection and analysis of foreign - and domestic - terrorist-related information that our laws and values will permit.

The foiling of this plot clearly shows the importance - and wisdom - behind well-crafted intelligence programs like the NSA's Terrorist Surveillance Program and the tracking of terrorist-related international financial transactions, among others."

And, as has been established numerous times to the consternation of some, our own NSA programs are legal as well as effective.
