Terrorism

Conspiracy and the Underpants Bomber

Last night, Keith, Richard Wolffe and Arianna Huffington discussed the possibility that the failure to communicate details of the Underpants Bomber before it happened might have been intentional.

In other words, did one or more operatives in the intelligence community deliberately withhold information in order to, I don't know, sabotage the Obama presidency? Foment an escalation in Yemen?

I have no idea, but I suspect we'll be be hearing much more about this -- and soon.
