Experts See Security Risks in Downturn
Global Financial Crisis May Fuel Instability and Weaken U.S. Defenses

Intelligence officials are warning that the deepening global financial crisis could weaken fragile governments in the world's most dangerous areas and undermine the ability of the United States and its allies to respond to a new wave of security threats.
No doubt, esp when Obama begins to cut the military budget. If there is a direct relationship between the cutting of the budget and a catostrophic terror attack it would be a pretty big monkey on his back that would detract from any good he had done up to that point.
