[Lawrence Wright], following on his book The [Looming Tower]: AlQaeda and the Road to 9/11 ISBN:037541486X (World Trade Center), has created a one-man-show now running in [SoHo], covering the back-story from a more personal perspective. I think the intelligence community is a disaster right now. It's worse off in many respects than it was before 9/11. For instance, one of the heroes of my book, [Ali Soufan], was one of nine Arabic-speaking agents in the FBI on 9/11. There are fewer now. The FBI claims they have 25 [ArabIc] speakers. I've talked to some of these guys. They went to Middlebury College for nine weeks to study Arabic, and they can order breakfast, but they cannot interrogate a suspect.
