Likes wiretapping.


I support the wiretapping A form of eavesdropping involving physical connection to the communications channels to breach the confidentiality of communications. For example, many poorly-secured buildings have unprotected telephone wiring closets where intruders may connect unauthorized wires to listen in on phone  of calls to and from the USA for the purpose of uncovering possible terrorists links ("Using a Shotgun to Hunt Mosquitoes," February 6). On that terrible September 11, there were two score and more individuals (terrorists) living in our country with all the freedom and privileges of every American. They were using telephones, library Internet servers, and Internet cafe computers to communicate plans to and from their terrorist leaders outside the country, to arrange plans and financing of their dreadful deed. We should have had the wiretap wiretap n. using an electronic device to listen in on telephone lines, which is illegal unless allowed by court order based upon a showing by law enforcement of "probable cause" to believe the communications are part of criminal activities.  program in effect at that time.

The group of terrorist suicide bombers who were in the plane that crashed into the Twin Towers left behind them in the U.S. a community of supporters who helped them. Is that band of terrorist supporters still living here in our country plotting the next atrocity? Have others joined them? How can we find out?

I am not a bit concerned that the government will listen in on my calls to friends and family. My greatest concern is of possible future terrorist attacks in and upon the USA by the same terrorists who helped launch the 9/11 event. The terrorists are probably cheering about articles like yours, and surely they are laughing at our naivete and trust. Are we our own worst enemies?
