Abstract

This article focuses on the reinvention of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) from a crime-fighting agency to one that fights terrorism. The author refers to Philip Mudd, a high-ranking FBI official whose focus is on intelligence gathering and the criticism of him at the agency. The FBI is portrayed as making an uneasy transition to the gathering of intelligence. The arrest of alleged terrorists in Lodi, California is discussed. Turnover in the top counterterrorism job is mentioned.
