That may well have been the case a few years back, say when Clinton
was in the White House. With "W" in the WH the rules have changed. The
FBI now seems more interested in chasing down porn peddlers and dope
dealers than legit terrorists. They seem willing to leave _that_ task to
the NSA. :(

PS To put this into some sort of perspective, in the fortnight immediately
following Sept. 11, 2001, the FBI continued its "in depth" investigation
of prostitution in New Orleans, tying up dozens of agents who, perhaps, 
should have been assigned more important work.
