They didn't "know", they suspected. But that's what there job is to do. At any given point the NSA probably has thousands of "suspects" based on their intelligence.
In fact, right now if you put enough trigger words in a post or email it's possible you could become a suspect. That doesn't give the FBI or CIA the right to pull you out of bed and bring you in for questioning. And at the time it didn't give the CIA the authority to share intelligence with the FBI. What you don't understand is the LAW. (I know I don't) The law was in place at the time that prevented them from sharing intelligence. The law is there for a good reason and it has to be followed. Sometimes the law lets murders go free, sometimes it lets terrorists complete their plans. It's not a perfect system, but it's better than Anarchy. |

You have been pointed to three very indepth books which detail what was known, who knew it, and how it was flubbed.
I know that the library you are posting from either has them or can get them for you. Spying Blind. the Secrets Factory and The looming Tower. Go and educate yourself. |
