US readying new counterterror plan

By David Morgan 2 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Four and a half years after the September 11 attacks, the Bush administration is nearing completion of a government-wide strategic plan for the war on terror that would assign counterterrorism tasks to specific federal agencies and departments, officials said on Tuesday.


Planning began late last summer under the direction of the National Counterterrorism Center, or NCTC, an entity created by the congressionally mandated intelligence reforms.

"This process is not a unilateral drafting exercise by NCTC. Instead, it is an interagency effort, involving hundreds of departmental planners working under our leadership," NCTC Director John Redd told the House of Representatives Armed Services Committee on Tuesday.

1. Well, if it took 4 YEARS to write, it MUST be good!

Ya know, if they spent most of the time they spent Selling this un-finish "plan," actually working on it, Maybe it wouldn't have taken 4 YEARS! :banghead:
