WASHINGTON - A year after the Sept. 11 attacks, the Justice Department (news - web sites) obtained video surveillance tapes suggesting terrorists were targeting Las Vegas casinos but authorities never alerted the public as they discussed whether a warning might hurt tourism or increase the casinos' legal liability, internal memos show.
...The mayor of Las Vegas said Monday he was never told

Certainly gives a person a bad feeling to think the govt doesn't warn industry leaders about terrorists casing their buildings.
