House Probers: Clinton Officials Expected 9-11
Attack

Three years before terrorists destroyed the World Trade
Center and part of the Pentagon, senior Clinton
administration intelligence managers predicted that a
9/11-style attack would take place, but neither the White
House nor any of the agencies charged with guarding
America's security acted on the information.
.....
Ex-President Clinton has repeatedly claimed he tripled the
U.S.'s counterterrorism budget, but the report suggests
those resources were largely misspent.

There are many cases "where available counterterror
resources were misallocated by these agencies," according
to the summary.

"The classified record of past years is replete with stern
warnings" that spy agencies were diverting badly needed
resources meant for intelligence collection and analysis in
order "to feed growing headquarters bureaucracies," 9-11
probers said.
