The response of the FBI and other police forces to the
aftermath of the Boston bombings has been exemplary. The coordination among the
services, the mobilization of an extraordinary amount of resources, both human
and material, the relations with the citizens and the management of the media
will be looked at in many police academies, in different parts of the world, as
cases of best practices and models to be followed.
Among the many lessons, they remind us that celerity in the resolution of these major threats to public life is key to recapturing people’s
confidence in the security institutions and on national political leadership.

Don't you think the performance of FBI and security agencies ought to be gauged not on what they did after the Boston bombing but on what they did not do before it? Thanks, Noel
Not really.
It's very difficult to fully prevent this type of terrorist crimes. When a fellow or a group of fellows are determined to go for mass murder and are not really connect to wider groupings, it is very difficult to detect them before the crime.
Thanks for the question and for the reading of my text. VA
