it should have been a huge scandal and I don't understand how you can argue otherwise
"Dude, these guys are terrorists"
"Um, I don't see compelling enough evidence to get them arrested"
"But, the FBI-"
"Nope, not compelling. STFU and go back to work"
That's not a scandal. That's somebody using their judgement on the quality of work and information. The fact that he was mistaken isn't the point - the point is that
there's dozens of such reports. ONE was correct.
It's not interesting because there's no intent to cause harm, there's no negligence, and there's no incompetence.
