(2004-07-22) — The 9/11 commission report released today blames the 2001 terror attacks on a “failure of imagination” among government officials, and urges intelligence agencies to “hire more evil people who could effectively anticipate acts of unrestrained wickedness.”
According to the report, America is vulnerable to terrorism because the CIA and FBI are filled with “patriotic people of integrity who have a hard time imagining the kinds of twisted and macabre things which are the stock-in-trade of terrorists.”
The report recommends that intelligence agencies recruit and hire “a new generation of heartlessly wicked and depraved agents and analysts who can stay a step ahead of Usama bin Laden and his imitators.”
