Intelligent Offensive

Bill Gertz reports that Bush has decided to go on the offensive against hostile intelligence agencys.

  "No longer will we wait until taking action," Miss Van Cleave said during a conference hosted by the Bush School of Government and Public Service at Texas A&M University. "To meet the threat, U.S. counterintelligence needs to go on the offensive, which will require major but achievable changes in the way we do business."

Warning

Michael Ledeen spotted this on Word Unheard. An analysis from the Jamestown Foundation.

Al Qaida has completed the required warning cycle demanded by Islamist scholars and may now not only have the green light, but be armed and prepared to execute an attack on the Continental United States on a scale that could dwarf 9/11.

If you needed something to worry about, now you have it.
