They don't have any real terrorism to point to but they want to keep their jobs and the military industrial complex needs more trillions. Now they can point to this kid and say "Look! We stopped a terrorist plot!"

Our FBI stops terrorists attacks every year. A lot actually. There was a documentary on a lot of the stuff that they catch before we know about it. They are also responsible for all of the LEO reviews for state and local authorities. Source : friends dad was fbi

Please cite the documentary. That conflicts with my understanding that they've only prevented a very small number of attacks.
