The head of the country’s National Security Agency testified Wednesday that surveillance has stopped “dozens” of potential terrorist attacks by looking at the phone records, emails and other Internet searches of people suspected of terrorism-related incidents. I will note that there was not one challenge to Alexander's statement. This means, incidentally, that The Senate is intentionally complicit in his lie. Why do I level this charge? Because terrorism, and attempted terrorism, is a crime and to the extent that it occurred in the United States those crimes would result in arrests, indictments, prosecutions and convictions, none of which are or can be classified or otherwise deemed "secret." Therefore, either Alexander lied directly to Congress or he can produce a list of all of his "dozens" of "thwarted" attacks in the form of a list of the persons inside the United States who have been arrested, indicted, prosecuted and convicted of terrorism-related charges, all of which can be backed up with court records and news stories.
