We know that terrorist plots have been foiled due to surveillance. We know that two of the 9/11 hijackers in San Diego were conversing with their al-Qaida brethren overseas before they attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, killing 3,000 people who had their right to life violated.



Carter authorized the warrantless surveillance of two people in the States, who later were convicted of spying for the Vietnamese government. The two men challenged their convictions on the basis that evidence against them was obtained illegally with the wiretaps. The U.S. Court said the executive branch has the "inherent authority" to wiretap enemies such as spies and terror plotters and is excused from obtaining warrants when the surveillance is "conducted 'primarily' for foreign intelligence reasons."



Remember that this surveillance is to and from known terrorists. If the president had not made this order for surveillance, and an event happened, then he would be targeted for not doing enough.
