In Time of War: Striking the Balance Between Freedom and Security

In a recent ABC News poll, 64 percent said that they supported expanding FBI powers—62 percent also felt that such steps intrude on privacy. Clearly, the public is willing to sacrifice some rights in a time of crisis. But whose? In this program, ABC News correspondent Chris Bury examines all the new policies and practices in the aftermath of September 11th, focusing on measures previously forbidden to intelligence or law enforcement agents. Several perspectives are offered by Douglas Kmiec, dean of the Catholic University Law School; Harvard Law School professor Laurence Tribe; former senior FBI official Bob Ricks; and Nihad Awad, executive director of The Council on American-Islamic Relations.
