22. There were at least 2 Saudi double-agents together in San Diego: al-Midhar and Alwaki

and we're supposed to believe the NSA had no way to monitor their communications at this end?

Why don't they just come out and admit it. This was a Saudi intelligence operation running inside the U.S. with the knowledge of CIA (but without adequate controls) that was, itself, compromised by AQ doubles. The plans to attack the US were well known. The FBI was called off because that would have interfered with what was treated as a Top Secret Compartmentalized program. Would the US public really be THAT shocked to learn this obvious explanation for what happened?
