This is actually not true. In order for anyone to get world class explosives, they would need to be well connected and to have access to explosives, that is, someone will have to supply them. Among these network of terrorists, some of them deal with supplying explosives, some with aquiring them, some with planning, some with other financial aspects. Like any other military (or large organization), they have a few departments. Most of the people are rather sane, and work in a more or less normal manner to do their "job". The ones carrying out the missions are the vast minority of such an organization. Intelligence gathering should and must be at the preliminary stage, by infiltrating such organizations, in any possible way. An operation of the size the US witnessed involved many people, at all levels of the organization. If the organization was well covered by the CIA/???, then the information would have reached them long time before the actual hit. This is what intelligence is all about. --Ariel
