The paper examines the state of the US intelligence organisations on the eve of the September 11th terrorist attacks evaluating to what extent they were prepared to deal with this new threat to national security. Differences between the old and new threats are discussed assessing the mistakes made by US intelligence agencies, and arguing whether these mistakes demonstrate an overall inability to respond to the new needs of security. ?
