7. The NSA missed the Boston Bomber, despite having actual knowledge and warnings about him.

And now they appear to have never heard of ISIS while they know what the average person is eating for dinner.

Surely this 'sophisticated' 'worse than AQ' group has websites, they DO, that could be traced. Perhaps the NSA missed them too? Surely they own cell phones that 'data' could be collected and stored' from??

And if they have allies right here in the US, how do they communicate with them?

Billions are spent on the NSA every year. Yet they seem to miss all these threats which supposedly is WHY they are spying on the WHOLE WORLD?

Weren't they supposed to sort through all that 'data' to find that 'needle in the haystack' that was the main purpose of all of this spying?

How come no one tracked down the ISPs of these 'sophisticated websites' that are posing Hollywood quality videos to sign up recruits from all over the world?

Is that beyond the capacity of the all powerful NSA?
