The Failed Plot Against Los Angeles

The details released today by the President about the planned attack on Los Angeles are chilling. A close family member worked in the building immediately next door to this tower during the time period for which the attack had been planned. Scary to even contemplate if the attack had not been prevented.

This certainly brings home more than ever the importance of ongoing surveillance of our enemies -- including wiretapping.

Although this particular attack was planned to take place from the air, the California destination also provides yet another reminder of the desperate need to secure our borders before tragedy strikes. It would be all too easy for terrorists to enter our country from Mexico or Canada.
