Oversight and Threats

Oversight of the right kind does nothing but good for the intelligence community,Dennis Blair stated.I will be leaning forward on the side of consulting more,rather than consulting less.The greatest threats do lie in that convergence of stateless individuals with weapons of mass destruction.The scientist A.Q. Khan,who shared nuclear secrets with North Korea and others,is restricted by the Pakistani government,Mr.Blair pointed out.He's not the head of a nuclear lab as he was before.Mr.Blair,a retired U.S. Navy admiral,was Commander,U.S. Pacific Command,from 1999-2002.He speaks in a deliberate way and has a military haircut.The members of the House Intelligence Committee seemed to have a lot of respect for him.
