One of the most historical pillars of this country is that the military does not operate on US soil. According to Dow Jones News, the military is increasing it's role in domestic issues, a "little-noticed side effect of the war on terror." Is it just me, or is this like a vote of no confidence in our current domestic intelligence capabilities?
One thing I could never undersatnd is how the FBI and CIA would not share information easilty. If these two government agencies could just talk to each other, things would be a lot different.
This is not encouraging. More military involvement in domestic issues plus weaker civil rights and liberties might not equal a good thing.
