Application: Impediments to Cooperation and Collaboration
The law enforcement approach to terrorism resulted in a number of legislative, structural, policy, and regulatory impediments to action that ultimately hindered national security agencies. For example, under the law enforcement approach, terrorism was considered to be criminal acts of violence. Due to judicial checks and balances associated with criminal law, there were delays in the government’s action to address terrorism. Along with these problems, changes in the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) role in counterterrorism efforts caused inherent issues. During the Clinton administration, the FBI was repurposed to focus on terrorism because of the perception that the threat was a law enforcement problem. This caused problems with collecting intelligence because the FBI does not have legal jurisdiction in other sovereign countries. Thus, the FBI was dependent on other countries for intelligence on terrorist activities. In addition to these problems, agencies were not communicating with each other. Therefore intelligence was not being shared between the FBI and the CIA as well as local and state areas of government.
