Ron Noble Tells Steve Kroft Agency Is Under-Funded

[landho2]

When are we, as Americans, going to learn that we have to be more global in our thinking and understand that we can not insulate ourselves? This is ridiculous. I can not believe that we are giving peanuts to an agency that possibly could have helped us determine that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, so this crazy war never would have begun. We never even asked them the question.
I am terribly afraid for my country when I find out that the basic things, which I believe are being taken care of, are not important and the people in our government are not smart enough to take care of business. This has nothing to do with politics...or at least it shouldn''t

Kudos to Ron Noble. Just because no one wants to listen doesn''t mean he shouldn''t speak. There are still some of us left that still think criminals should be apprehended and punished-regardless of where they are in the world. Shame on the US if they do not support ANY and ALL type of investigation that might result in the prosecution of terrorists.
Whatever happened to the promise of "info-sharing" between agencies? I even question whether the agencies WITHIN the US even started communicating; so it really is not suprising that they wouldn''t communicate with Interpol. Private-sector funding should be solicited.

The reasons why Interpol does not receive all due cooperation from its member agencies are less political than that they are organizational. Police agencies tend to be protective of their objectives and information and insulate themselves, also at a national and local level. In the case of international cooperation, problems are augmented by the fact that many criminal problems nowadays are distinctly international in scope. I have explored some of these issues in my research (available from my website). Sincerely, Mathieu Deflem

zootallures2 - well - you may not burn in eternity, but if we catch you, you may not like the now too much either.

Ah, oh... It''s Ramadan, are you going to bust some more people for giving money to Hizb''Allah, Hamas, or Iran?

Well, the law of giving Zakat is to give it to the leader of Islamic people. So, between God and the FBI who can''t seem to recognise a controlled demolition and magic cartoon planes....


It''s a tough choice. Ron looks like a nice guy, but I don''t think I want to burn for eternity for his incompetance!

Ron Noble is a good guy. I hear his name has been put before the presumed first female president to head the FBI. I think he would do better to get an endowed chair at NYU Law maybe in memorarium of JFK, Jr. and for get about it. The Democrats can afford to do that for him since the Republicans left him stranded with funding for Interpol.
