Both the title and some of the text are easily misread. My first reaction to the title was to wonder what terror US intelligence agencies inflicted in the 70s. Bombing Cambodia & Laos? When I see "Attacks on US soil started in 1975, for which the Federal Bureau of Investigation was the lead agency." I find myself wanting to say no, the DEA actually conducted more attacks than the FBI.
Partly, this is just me being cynical, but the wording should be improved to avoid the ambiguities. [[User:Sandy Harris|Sandy Harris]] 02:33, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
