Editorial: "Homeland Eyes, Right and Left"

Besides worrying about Al Qaeda, the Department of Homeland Security is responsible for sorting through terrorist threats posed by the motley array of aggrieved and violent homegrown groups stewing out in the United States. The Oklahoma City tragedy, the Unabomber and the bombing at the Atlanta Olympics all were ample demonstration that threats can come from within as well as from abroad. That makes it all the more disturbing to hear reports that the department seems to be wearing political blinkers in this vital task.
