Could you possibly be meaning this quote from Colleen Rowley?
"Why would an FBI agent(s) deliberately sabotage a case? (I know I shouldn't be flippant about this, but jokes were actually made that the key FBIHQ personnel had to be spies or moles, like Robert Hansen, who were actually working for Osama bin Ladin to have so undercut Minneapolis' effort.)"
And if that is true, I am going to guess that maybe you didnt see this part of her letter...
Mr. Director, I hope my observations can be taken in a constructive vein. They are from the heart and intended to be completely apolitical. Hopefully, with our nation's security on the line, you and our nation's other elected and appointed officials can rise above the petty politics that often plague other discussions and do the right thing. You do have some good ideas for change in the FBI but I think you have also not been completely honest about some of the true reasons for the FBI's pre-September 11th failures. Until we come clean and deal with the root causes, the Department of Justice will continue to experience problems fighting terrorism and fighting crime in general.

She doesnt think it was an intentional thing. She thinks it was a result of the institutional bureaucracy and cover my butt mentality that only solidified after the Ruby Ridge and Waco debacles. No one wants to go out on a limb or give approval for someone to do so in case it blows up in their faces. At which point they can count on Congressional hearings and losing their jobs....if not going to jail.
Wait a minute....someone on here has been pointing out for years that it was the restrictions placed on our law enforcement/military agencies during the 70s-90s that made it possible for terrorists to hurt us as badly as they did.....oh, yeah...that would be me.
