First sentence: The terrorist attacks on New York City and Washington on September 11, 2001 were the most traumatic and gut-wrenching events many of us have ever experienced.
Description: "Hulnick explains the need to revamp U.S. intelligence operations from a system focused on a single Cold War enemy to one offering more flexibility in combating non-state actors (including terrorists, spies, and criminals) like those responsible for the attacks of September 11, 2001. Offering possible solutions not to be found in the federal commission's official report, Hulnick's work examines what is really necessary to make intelligence and homeland security more efficient and competent, both within the United States and abroad."--BOOK JACKET.
