I suspect that that's basically it. Plus, they are probably very embarrassed by what might come out about their screwed up intelligence organs if a thorough investigation of the subject were ever carried out.

I don't know much about this whole "terrorism" subject, but I think a lot of people (including governments) make a big mistake assuming that acts of people who deliberately blow things up to kill and maim lots of other people indiscriminately "make sense" in any respect. Why do you suppose that Al-Queda people are rational? Everything I see about them suggests to me just the opposite.
