...intelligence agencies to share information with each other was one of our government's most egregious lapses leading up to Sept. 11," charges Democratic Senator Joseph Lieberman. The CIA and the FBI have promised Congress they will send the new department their "finished" intelligence reports, but they resist divulging raw data and sensitive sources and methods. The two organizations also insist the bureaucratic war between them is over. "The FBI and CIA are working together," says Jim Bernazzani, an FBI agent detailed to the CTC and one of its deputy directors. "Anybody who promotes the notion that...
