Fusion Centers Face Insufficient Terrorist Activity
http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/33863

FUSION CENTERS FACE "INSUFFICIENT" TERRORIST ACTIVITY

Fusion centers are collaborative law enforcement and intelligence
organizations that were established all over the country after 9/11 to
share intelligence and counterterrorism information. But in the absence
of a widespread domestic terrorist threat, they have not consistently
demonstrated their value, according to a recent study.

"Fusion centers emerged almost spontaneously in response to a need by
state and local law enforcement for useful and usable intelligence
related to the evolving terrorist threat," observed Milton Nenneman, a
Sacramento police officer, in a master's thesis based on a survey of
California fusion centers.

But the terrorist threat has turned out to be "insufficient" to justify
or sustain the new fusion centers.

"There is, more often than not, insufficient purely 'terrorist'
activity to support a multi-jurisdictional and multi-governmental level
fusion center that exclusively processes terrorist activity," Lt.
Nenneman wrote.

1. Not to worry. The Bushies ALWAYS intended turning them on us. We were ALWAYS
their intended targets.

If the Bushies fought the War on Terror with the same dedicastion and brilliance they brought ot their War on the Constitution and the American People, terrorism would be on the run and nearly defeated already.

But of course, the Busheis could give a shit about the War on Terror. It's all about their War on the Constitution and the American People...that's all the bushies care about.

Not only are they winning, they went through us like Hitler through Poland.
