| Video Discription | (17 Feb 2011) Headline: Top official: Terror remains top US threat caption: The nation's top intelligence official says terrorism is the top threat facing the country, and keeping americans safe is his top priority. (Feb. 10) NB. THIS IS A VOICEOVER TRANSCRIPT, NOT A FULL SHOT LIST (perhaps a shot from the beginning of the hearing as clapper sits down) THE NATION'S TOP INTELLIGENCE OFFICIAL SAYS TERRORISM IS THE TOP THREAT FACING THE U.S., WHICH MAKES HIS JOB CLEAR. ((Sot: james clapper, director of national intelligence 10:38:15 "counterterrorism is our top priority, because job 1 for the intelligence community, in my view, is to keep americans safe and the homeland secure.")) (Wide shot of all the intel chiefs at the table -- don't have a specific code, apologies) AS JAMES CLAPPER AND THE NATION'S MAJOR INTELLIGENCE CHIEFS GATHERED BEFORE A HOUSE PANEL TO GIVE A YEARLY ASSESSMENT OF THE WORLDWIDE THREAT, THEY DID NOT LAY OUT ONE SPECIFIC THING...IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE ((sot: michael leiter, national counterterrorism center 11:12:00 "it is that we face a geographically, idealogically, organizationally diverse set of threats, which is the greatest diversity and complexity that we have faced since 9/11."))

(File egypt protests) THE OFFICIALS ALSO FOUGHT BACK AGAINST CRITICISM THAT THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY IS SO FOCUSED ON COUNTERTERRORISM THAT IT MISSED SIGNS FORECASTING THE REVOLTS IN TUNISIA AND EGYPT (file more egypt protests) CLAPPER SAYS THEY DID TRACK EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE PROTESTS..BUT PREDICTING WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IS KIND OF LIKE FIGURING OUT WHEN AN EARTHQUAKE WILL HIT. ((Sot: james clapper, director of national intelligence what intelligence can do is reduce uncertainty for decision makers, not necessarily eliminate it, whether those decision makers are in the congress, wh, embassy or foxhole but we are not clairvoyant.)) (File even more egypt) CLAPPER'S PREDICTING REGIME CHANGES IN THE MIDEAST COULD PROVIDE A CHANCE TO COME UP WITH A Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP_Archive Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/APArchives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/APNews/ You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/youtube/b8e712ba8eae7bae7244e1a3593c1f98 |
