umar farouk abdulmutallab, nobody knew according to the senate intelligence report of something like that was going to come along from aqap and attack us and all of a sudden he's on flight to 53 trying to blow it up. >> clearly al-awlaki is becoming the emerging threat on the scene in my judgment. he's radicalizing muslim use over the internet. here in the united states. what easier way to do it if you can't get into the country with travel documents one of radicalize people who are already here? last question. how can we track these individuals we know have left the united states are in somalia now to ensure they don't come back to the united states and commit acts of terrorism? >> that's a difficult question. there's a lot of good work being done on that and you can't say all the individuals that the walls are not being tracked. it's tough to say. it becomes very difficult. the problem is once you leave the country and go into these the badlands of africa basically where there's all this warfare it's tough to say who could get a false passport or visa or something like that. so man

findings and recommendations of this committee and others after the christmas day attempted attack by umar, i'm still very concerned about the possibility of terrorist attacks against the united states. i believe this is a very critical time. the period leading up to the 10 #th anniversary of -- 10th anniversary of 9/11 is a time of heightened threat. despite pressure against al-qaeda in pakistan including the successful strike against bin laden, the group remains dangerous. at the same time, the threat from al-qaeda's affiliates has increased and presents particular challenges. i'm especially concerned about the threat to the united states homeland from al-qaeda in the arabian peninsula, aqap we call it, as well as safe havens in somalia and elsewhere. this means, at least to me, that this is a crucial time for our counterterrorism establishment to be at full strength and not to be leaderless. nctc is a lynch pin of this establishment so i'm very pleased that the president moved quickly to nominate mr. olsen, an individual serving in the senior intelligence community position today to tak

. >> the one you're referring to, umar farouk abdulmutallab, the only reason that plane didn't blow upnction, he broke it. we weren't good there. we were lucky. yet, it was not an intelligence failure. we had all the intelligence information we needed in pieces to give us a strong likelihood of detecting that plot. there were pieces over at this agency and pieces over at that agency and pieces from foreign partners which strung together would have made that relatively clear. that was a problem of we operate in massive sets of data, in systems that don't touch each other and that data doesn't necessarily correlate until some smart analyst or someone else takes it and says, i'm going to run it through these outside systems if they have the access. ten years after 9/11 that is a problem that still needs fixing. >> how much of the world of intelligence that you've now spent time deep inside, how much of it resembled what you thought it was going to look like when you were studying it, reporting on it? how different is it from the james bond movies? >> well, there's been an arc there. used

attacks perpetuated by al-qaeda on 9/11, the attack by richard reed, and the most recent attack by umar farouk on northwest airlines christmas 2003, it remains an important topic on the minds of the aviation community. let's look at the previous history. 1968 to 1969 was a peak in airplane hijackings. most hijacking demands were political or financial in nature. subsequently our response strategy was one of accommodation more than confrontation. at strong urging in the early 19 70's the government required screening so no unlawful or dangerous weapons were carried on board our aircraft. from 1973 to 2001, the security system was predicated on acts and worked well for its purposes. that brings us to the post-9/11 era. in congressional testimony given two weeks after the 9/11 attacks, the then acting f.a.a. executive administrator, mone belger said, "the nature of the threat facing america has changed. what we faced on september 11 it was a new phenomenon. hijackers taking over flights for the sole purpose of turning them into human-guided terrorist bombs. in november 2001, congress passe
