CIA Director George Tenet (AP)
All Eyes on Homeland Security
Story aired: Wednesday, March 10, 2004



Most news coverage of CIA Director George Tenet's congressional testimony yesterday has focused on whether the administration used or misused intelligence on Iraq.

However, Tenet also testified that groups like Al Qaeda are as determined as ever, despite the ongoing war on terror, and that perhaps they are more capable than ever to stage what Tenet called a "spectacular" attack on U.S. soil with a nuclear dirty bomb, anthrax, or with chemical weapons.

Guests:


David E. Kaplan, chief investigative correspondent for U.S. News and World Report
