Stopping terrorism of this nature is impossible. In the free society that we live in, and I emphasize the work FREE, it's impossible to stop these kind of attacks. Those who blame the government intelligence agencies should not have any problem when their FREE rights and privacy are taken away from them in the near future. Security at what cost?

If our 'best' had no hint that what happened yesterday was going to occur, then perhaps the statement above is wrong. (Either way(if they knew, or not) expect changes, and more money for them.)
