Reports say it seems as if it was US Intelligence inside France supplementing the French intelligence, which is somewhat of an oxymoron in this case - "French intelligence," that is.

The terrorists were ready to board the plane, including one who had been trained to "fly."

I don't want to jump to conclusions, but it does seem like something more than just an oversight. I mean, how inept can a country be given today's circumstances with terrorism?

It's a good thing the U.S. Intelligence is operating inside these foreign countries. We obviously cannot depend on, in the very least, the French.
