Fearing 2nd attack (Tom Kean says before problems fixed)

It may take another catastrophic attack on America before there is the political will to fix problems with the nation's intelligence and counterterrorism efforts, the chairman of the 9/11 commission told the Daily News.

The commission, which completed two days of emotional hearings in Manhattan last week, is drafting a blueprint for how Congress and President Bush can revamp the system that allowed 19 hijackers to conduct the most deadly terror attack in U.S. history.

The panel's head, Thomas Kean, said he and the other commissioners are aware that many of the nearly 20 major recommendations they intend to make might not be enacted.

"It's something we've talked about," Kean said. "We've got to say things in the report that, if there's not the political will now, there will be recommendations leaders can turn to later."

How could it not be the political will with the "war president" at the helm?

I thought he was all over that "war on terra."
