Laura Rozen does a much better job exploring something I noted the other day which was the issue of why our new surveillance scheme hasn't led to more arrests. Her conclusion is either the government knows there are thousands of Al-Qaeda terrorists or sympathizers in this country and somehow still hasn't bothered to pick any of them up after four years of monitoring, or they're casting such a wide net that most of what they're picking up is probably not really Al-Qaeda related at all, thus explaining their reluctance to go to a FISA court.
No word on whether she feels safer either way?
